i PART 1

You watch the remnants of the planet you once called home flicker and die. You watch as the once lush fields and forests burn. You watch as the atmosphere is stripped from the planet, as the world itself shudders and shakes in its death throes. As the planet itself cracks asunder, you have only one thought on your mind: the desire for revenge, vengeance, retaliation.

#+8001
Revenge for Earth.

#+
As you turn away from the horrible recording of the death of Earth, you once again lapse into your memories.

#+
The UNS, still an incompetent bureaucracy at hard, had become emboldened by the destruction of the Cantharan Gateship at your hands. Overriding the sound advice of their generals, they had launched a suicidal military campaign to "finish off" the Catharans. The Cantharans were caught off guard without their Gateship to rapidly relocate their fleets from other parts of the farflung Cantharan Order, and the seemingly suicidal offensive actually made some headway. But with all the meager resources of the UNS committed to the offensive despite the protests of the generals, we had no defense when the slumbering Prophets of Salril unveiled their true power.

#+1114
Angered by the assaults on their allies, puppets, or perhaps even masters, the Prophets of Salril once again launched their battle flleets, marking the date of the first major military campaign by the Prophets since their subjugation of the Audemedon Axis in 1416.

#+
Needless to say, the token defenses of Earth were crushed. The invading fleets then turned their guns towards Earth itself. Withering under a bombardment of antimatter and thermonuclear weapons, Earth was reduced to rubble in a few hours.

#+
Now, the remnants of the UNS fleet-with you in command-must fight their way out of the territory of the Order and try to salvage as much of the savaged human race as you can. The fate of humanity once again rests on your shoulders Commander-we’re counting on you.


What do you think of it?

Looks excellent to me. When you mentioned the idea at GameRanger, I didn't realize what I was missing. Posted Image

By the way, here's my idea of a Salrelian Heavy Cruiser. Tell me if you wish to use it, or if you want anything changed:

Hmmm. The grey is a touch too light, the mottling a touch too obvious. Tone down the purple a little bit in saturation... and it should be just about right.

Quite a nice design, overall.

Yeah, I intentionally made the grey a little brighter than the standard Salrelian vessels, do to the fact that they show up extremely dark on an iMac moniter. In fact, I viewed the graphic on my own iMac, and you could barely see the entire back section...

I will give the modelling some extra attention. Salrelian vessels are more sleek, and this has some rather obvious basic shapes.

Thanks for the comment and suggestions.

Looks pretty nice, if you want to make up the sprite and send it to me that would be great..

Patrick: I've never created Ares sprites before, so it might be awhile before I get it / them to you. While we're on the issue, how many frames would you like for the sprites?
