I'll begin playing today.

« on: June 19, 2012, 11:17:34 AM »I have also been inspired to try my hand at this. Don't feel ready for the responsibility (privilege?) of my own sub-forum though, so is it okay if I just post it in a new thread under the root? To make things simpler I will probably just post a link to a word document, since that is what busy I'm writing it in. It's upwards of 5k words already
In this forum is good.

Thanks,

I've been meaning to try a couple of campaign ideas for months now, but I've been procrastinating for no good reason. Maybe seeing my name every time I scroll down the forums'll give me some encouragement, heh.

« on: January 25, 2012, 08:30:43 AM »Odd request: I'd like a subforum to post stuff, but rather than getting titled 'Sublight's fiction' I'd like it to be titled 'Multiplayer fiction' or some such.
I'd like to write up/compile fiction from multiple perspectives based on a multiplayer Aurora4x game I'm starting up. Since I have doubt I'll ever type up my solo-campaigns, I thought I'd offer to have the subforum act as a repository for anyone doing fiction on multiplayer games where players looking for a multiplayer game write up could easily find them.
Edit: If that's a problem I'll be happy with a genericly titled subform.

« on: October 30, 2011, 11:08:32 AM »Now that I have a few games under my belt, I've been thinking about doing some AARs. For my next actual game (right now I'm trying the BSG Challenge that I just found, heh) I plan on going full out Empire themed. I actually have a bit of backstory ready from another project of mine, and none of the Imperial themed stories here quite fit into how I do it.
A place to put them would be rather nice.

« on: October 17, 2011, 08:29:32 PM »Mind giving me a subforum for my stories? Working on a rather creative scenario with fancy backline. The quick backline is before the Precursors died from the Invaders, they built a cloaked facility underground, that had a computer with all their technological data, and a factory that produced robots that had free will, other than their purpose; prepare the galaxy for the eventual return of a large Precursor fleet that moved to another galaxy to conquer it. It has a good 35 years already written, but they kind of had a bit of a "gimped" start, with 20 CI, 5 maintenance facilities, a 1000 ton shipyard, a single research lab, and ten million starting population. And on a slight side note, for writing stories, I usually make a mediumish detailed "timeline" of sorts, that includes MAJOR events, such as political reforms and other fluff that is relevant, and battles. Later on, I add more 1st person events that may or may not have been told in the timeline, but with alot more detail.

« on: October 16, 2011, 11:06:07 AM »Any chance of getting a section for my games? Got a good, gritty game going right now with an Earth-based military dictatorship trying to deal with Wraiths (i. e. Precursors), while vastly outclassed in tech. I decided for a challenge to make gauss cannon-armed fighters one of my primary weapons. They don't fare so well against Precursor AMM and gauss cannon platforms.
I've been keeping copious notes in-game and using some 3rd party apps to generate some nice maps and such of key systems.
