It is with the utmost pleasure (and a little bit of uncertainty regarding the reaction of the general public) that I announce the following:
- Fatal Alliance has reached the half-way point in terms of creativity. The major storylines have been more or less wrapped up, now all that remains is to write the missions for those stories before the plug can be finished.
- I'd also like to announce the new plug-in Dominion of Ten Trillion Years. You will probably hear nothing more about this until it is actually released.
Does this scream (i) VAPORWARE!?!?! (i) Well, don't worry. I finish what I start.
Any comments, questions, or otherwise critiscms are welcomed ;).

Just for the record, not only is this what every vaporware project states, but I also doubt that anyone sets out to not finish what they start. It's real life that determines that they don't finish.
Now, that said, I look forward to the plugs.

I can't wait to see the governmental structure of a dominion that can last ten trillion years..

From the Fatal Alliance mission strings I've seen it looks like he has a lot of stuff done. Even if something does happen to his resolve to finish the plug there's a lot of missions fully written and planned, so I'm looking optimistically at the prospects of this plug getting finished.

The title is abstract. It really has nothing to do with the premise except for a very obscure reference somewhere in the plug-in.
If you want to see more, check out this week's Chronicle...
Uh... you sure we can't work on the name UER&D;?
Glad to hear about the progress.

Of course we can work on the name. I just didn't want to refer to this as 'The Secret Project' for much longer...was driving me crazy ;).
E-mail me and we'll talk about it. Probably won't choose a name until I'm almost done (timetable: 8-9 months).

Obscure? A "Dominion" with a longevity orders of magnitude greater than most stars? It'd have to be a propaganda ploy for a minor migratory race/state with a vastly over inflated ego; possibly dodging from star to star, either when resources run dry, or when a more powerful military arrives on the scene.
Or, they've cloaked all of their stars or something.

Just kidding... No offense intended.
UE_Research & Development, good luck.

Hey, if EVula is willing to give me a little bit of webspace for my two projects, I'll take it! After all, Geocities doesn't really offer that much.
Thanks for the encouragement :D.
Oh, and I haven't given up on Fatal Alliance. Quite the contrary, I am working hard on it. Unfortunately, school, life, and the fact that a compelling story takes time has reduced my productivity rate. As well, these next sets of descs will cover maybe 40 missions each, as opposed to 20 or so for the first set. (Okay, maybe I should have split it up 30-30. I have wonderful hindsight.)

40 and 20? Would you mind telling me why I got around...oh, A HUNDRED AND FORTY PAGES?
Hmm...possibly a little too much emphasis...wait, why did I say possibly? That was waaaaaaaaaay too much emphasis...

If anyone cares, I have about 170 typed pages worth of mission descs for Fatal Alliance, and about 40 typed pages worth of back-story and planet descs for the 'other plugin'. As well, I'm still considering what to draw for my next Fatal Experiment post...

170? Didn't I get like a 140 pages?
Of course, that's according to the default width in TextEdit for 10.2...
What did you type it in? And how do you type them so freaking quickly? I've only written dëscs for 10 of my missions...then again, I dont have that much free time...
