Keep up the good work.

First off, I apologize for the delay. I had a chance to go visit my son in another state on Saturday so I leapt at the opportunity. I just got back today. :oops:
Second, the poll met the minimum reqs for posting the new version so I will get that up later today. :D
Due to the overwhelming request to post everything I have written and if Eric will create a Post Apoc fora here in my writing fora I will begin posting my Post Apoc stories to.
I have read all of you stories and was ready to go up the wall when it ended suddenly and left me guessing.
As for telling you what doesn´t work, well, I realy don´t feel qualified to do that.

Just because I don't comment on your stories doesn't mean I don't read them! Perhaps the number of views would be more informative than the number of comments?

The reason I am doing it this way is the absolute underwhelming number of replies for the story I am posting in the BTS! forum. As a writer I need feedback to improve the stories, and that is the one thing I am not getting.
I'm glad you're continuing this. I've missed it.
I suppose I can wait for the rewrite. :wink: The Prologue and Chapter one are mainly to establish how and when the Romans make it into space. Chapter two is where the entirely new stuff begins. :wink:

Ok, so I will wait for the Test of Wills rewrite?
Quote from: "Beersatron"Do you have an order of reading for the threads in this sub-forum? I must admit that I have never looked in here before!
The way I wrote the stories was Assault of the IV Ala, The Siliconate War: Damnatio Et Memoriae, Then A Test of Wills: Discovery, and then A Test of Wills: The Time of Fire.
But this is not in chronological order. Just the way I wrote them. :D One of the reasons for the rewrite is that in the later stories I was constrained to a very short period of time due to when I had the Romans gaining spaceflight. Well, in the new version the time constraint is not there and I can fit Assault and Siliconate in the timeline. And the rewrite also brings this story inline with the new canon.
So far the new rewrite is up to 116 pages and as far as I am concerned, just barely begun. It adds a lot of to the UST background and the new meeting between the Romans and Terrans now occurs in a far different situation. :D
@alexwildstar, that is one of the problems corrected with this version. It is quite a bit longer and more detailed. :D
Cheers, Thor
