I think they made a behind-the-scenes thread a while back, detailing the making of a few Tenebra missions.

I'd love to. I have a mic now, but no good video capture solution. If someone gave me good clean recordings of people playing the missions I could record commentary. Bringing in guests is less likely.

If we can arrange the times, I'm up for it as well.

I have a pet theory that the Jester is the head of the HoL, judging by the HoL (and only the HoL among Vasudans, to date) being involved in Nagari.

I had a quick skim of the techroom, and I note that the 'Vasudan' entry mentions a political rumour of Khonsu taking council with certain HoL thinkers, as well as even more esoteric mystics and prophets (this could include the Jester?).  Then, in the 'Vasudan Mysticism Part 2' entry it states that The Jester is completely unaffiliated with the HoL.  Those together seem to indicate that the Jester isn't the HoL head. Having said that, do you have any more info about your theory that I may have missed?

(And in any event, to the original point, if Khonsu has direct contact with the HoL per the political rumour, then maybe he'd have the info about Bosch (etc) already anyway).

Weren't you guys using Quantum Delta's playthroughs for the video material? He has all of WiH on his youtube playlists. They're straight gameplay with no commentary, so even if the original files don't exist anymore you could just rip them and duck the volume to talk over (assuming he's ok with that).

Perhaps I should do a livestream and you could do the commentary while I fly very poorly?

[The E]

That sounds like a really cool idea.

[Scotty]

As an experienced poor flier, that does sound like a really cool idea.  The trick will probably be to explode just often enough that they can get all the commentary in.

[General Battuta]

The problem is my schedule. I don't think I can coordinate getting 4 people online, sorting out technical issues, prepping my own notes, and hitting talking points without slacking off on writing or actual BP work.

In an effort not to hijack the persona writing thread.

Shivans, eh?

[X3N0-Life-Form]

It's been talked about before. The personas are made to be reusable in other mods, including ones where you would be fighting Shivans.

[General Battuta]

Yeah, it's just something we wanted for extensibility. Even our persona templates for characters like Karen and Kassim have Shivan entries.

We wouldn't be dumb enough to spoil a plot point like that right out in the open.

That was one of my characters!

[crizza]

Just reading through the Blue Planet Orders of Battle article.
There each Raynor class destroyer is listed as Erebus class, but as of yet there is no article for the Erebus.
Would a new article simply uses the text from the original Raynor article or will a new description be given?

[Mars]

I think people are holding out until we actually see the Erebus. For now, although we know the Erebus will retcon the Raynor in BP, we know comparatively little about it. Certainly not enough for more than a stub.

EDITED for period justice

[QuakeIV]

True, turret loadout at least.

[qwadtep]

I still think Erebus is really menacing for a GTA ship class. It's like the GTD Death or SCv Bunnies. I'd have preferred Hector or something.

[Aesaar]

As opposed to names like Medusa, Deimos, Erinyes, Atalanta?  Or Nyx, who occupies a very similar place in Greek mythology.
