I have had an idea (Oh no), here goes, I'm making a TC (should be finished... 2005?) and you can choose two story lines, half-way through you can enlist the help of a neutral race, so if you choose one side, the neutral race, when you ask them for help, works for you, same for the other side, what about that for an idea?

I think it'd be good to get a really rock hard backstory on the TC, then see how your plan works. Also, be sure you've got a good way to have the player "ask" for help. These things will make or break your TC.

Yeah, I'll probaly have the govt you choose be under heavy attack then you have to get to the other race within a time limit otherwise a vital outpost gets captured but if you get there in time when you go back there is a huge battle between your friends and the enemies but I'll have to make it that you win...
I was going to do somthing similar in my plugin, "Espeidia", but it's a little more complicated then what you said. Basically, the player starts out working for the Zorian government, but then that government gets overthrown. The Brethren of Gelmachin take over most or all of that government's technology and territory, and then, later on in the story, if you are working for gelmachin you can chose to ally with either Espeidia or with the DPO (Espeidia is a liberal "good" government, DPO is an "evil" radicalist government, Gelmachin is a conservative dictatorship and Zoria is a semi liberal oligarchy)

At least your time frame is realistic

I've always tried to make a TC but got bored halfway through and downloaded one off the internet and played it instead. hehe... I'm looking for a team to join. Maybe to help with programing or graphics.

When making a TC, try not to shoot for the starts TOO much. I hear you going like "there's a huge battle going on" and I can't help but think that you can't fill a TC with epic moments...

ps. in case you haven't done so, I suggest you read the 110 commandments on plug making, it's on the dev board somewhere...
well actually I've finally found a good idea for a plug-in. Small and simple yet room for expansion incase I finsih and want to add more.

if you're good with graphics that would make the work on the human chronicles much more pleasant and rapid. it's (going to be) a series which follows humans from about 2100 when humans first start to colonize planets outside this system (which is the one i'm working on now) and continues on at least until 2250 (the conclusion of the civil war) and perhaps more if any ideas come up. let me know if you're interested and i'll send you the descriptions for everything

My biggest problem is... I can't get the insperation for the galaxy I just can't do any, I start, then fall asleep. PLEASE HELP!!! Sorry for caps
Considering that I have seen your plug I can offer more advice then someone who hasen't.
My idea: Since your plug is set in a parellel universe, the Zig. are like a parallel U.E. and the nameless are like a parallel voinians, simply make parallels of other races, like the miranu and the strands.
How about editing the universe so that it was more like master of orion and you had control of the entire empire?
