Kauthor, a person with your grammar shouldn't correct other people's spelling mistakes.
I've been droping by and reading this topic every so often just to watch your progress and basicly amuse myslef. I have to say... Varuna, that had to be the funniest post I have seen in a while. If you want some advice from an experianced webstory player, I'll be happy to provide it if only for the sheer pleasure of reading more such posts in the future. Drop me a line on AIM (Screenname: Ipvicus) or email me at matrekie@aol.com.

No, I doubt he does, but he did ask for some advice on how webstories are done.

Thank you. Shadow_Dragon, contact me on AIM.
Both to Shadow_Dragon and to Varuna:
Sure, you are welcome to join. Varuna, consider playing as the Igadzra if you want to be able to contend in the military theatres; they have the strongest warship in the game in their navyshieldwiseinitially.
And that's my little recruitment bid for the day. By the way Varuna, if you do choose to play Igadzra, we'll be able to start this very soon. You can contact me on AIM (at the screen name SoLeL87) for any questions about webstories you might have.
Thank you all.
Regards, Solel

Varuna if you need to know more about what I'm doing, don't talk to me, because I really don't have much of a clue. This is my first webstory and I'm kinda winging it

I would just like to stress one more time how important it is that we fill the Igadzra slot, because I know of someone who will guarantee us the UE slot if it's not filled by tomorrow this time.
I talked with Solel briefly last night about how this story is to function, and I'm slightly clearer on the entire concept now, while not entirely convinced that very much storytelling is going to proceed once the thread opens. I thank (almost) everyone for the responses, although I must say this Paranoid chap seems to be asking for a wee visit from the militant forces I intend to control for the assumption that I'm inept at wargames (also Vice Admiral Ipvicus, I thank you for the comment, but I do wonder who you might be if you're not writing in this.) Anyway, to the point which you're probably all starting to realise is something that often becomes rather unclear to me, I've been doing some research and have decided that I'd like to write as the Igadzra and build a death ray for the purpose of phasing that wannabee' moderator fellow out of existence, or alternatively specialise in a trio of weapons known as the "Gallows", "Rack" and "Guillotine". I'll need a day or two to solidify a few ideas and begin preparing my plans for galactical domination by mass hung-drawn-and-quartered tactics, in an operation referred to as "Shock and Bore".
Shock and Bore? This is a modification of the US operation name, "Shock and Awe", I see. But whats the bore part?
------------------ I am eager to try to ansver mission questions

Varuna's speaches of course. See he will blast the hell out of everyone and then bore all the civilains to death. Oh I better update the list then.

Oh, do be quiet. These are the writers of the future you're talking about. But don't pull that 'so last year' thing, please, because a Kayan player isn't any more or less over-used than EVO webstories in general.
As per my agreement with Solel and Kauthor, I will be taking command of the U.E. now. You Voinians are in for a hell of a time.

And you be quiet too, unless you have something good to say.

Thanks ESPilot. I'll have an updated player list up one of these days...oh bah. Here it is.

I hope that we can start this webstory soon. Very soon. Like within the weekend or a day after.
There was a rule in EoD which I assume will apply to this webstory as well, and that was the rule that ...aw heck I'll just quote it
All players are to be treated as if their crews are the same in every way(no "my crews are more experianced than yours so i can kill 8 destroyers at the loss of one ship" crap).
I was wondering, because I am just one person would that rule apply to me?? If I didn't have somewhat of a skill advantage (within reason), I wouldn't last long.

Your advantage is that you have almost nothing to protect. You only have one fleet, so you can just run away if needed.
