The idea of the History game is not that people are cooperating on a single story each writing different pieces, but that each of us are writing the same story from a different point of view. It is not neccesary at all for your Posts to relate to the other peoples Posts.

That sums up how I was writing before the Eifralo made First Contact. I've mentioned in other threads how I wanted to create sub-plots underneath the story arc of the game events.

Contact with other races gets the plots spinning in new directions. I've gotten several new ideas about the Eifralo from things that I've discussed with UE and Geo in e-mails.

I don't think so. Is that what you think or what you would like to happen ?
<hr /></blockquote>This is how I will be writing it for the most part. Others are free to write how they wish, and do what they feel would make their writing more interesting. As you say the universe this time is large, there is plenty of room for different styles. I didn't intend to tell you you had to write it my way, I was simply trying to point out it wasn't required to write it strictly cooperativly. Whichever way people feel feeds their creativity, or even a mixture of both, or something alltogether different I haven't thought of would be fine to.

Gimboid, I hope that Unknown Enemy is joking about this, I know I was. I merely threw your name out there. I was just teasing Sachmo about saying his race hasn't had to fight. UE seems to have taken that comment and run with it. Or maybe he was just playing along too. I can't be sure.

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread

There has been some fighting occuring Last turn.

But from who.
Where is the AAR ???

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread

Nothing here. It could be just a warp point first contact or something. But it's odd noone mentioned anything.

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread

The Katana Imperium has seen no combat, this is a strange occurance then

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread

We're not fighting...unless I missed a turn?

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread

that would be me. Out of supplies scout hit a warp point at the same time a Galtren colony ship did. no hostilities just bad timing

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread

Ha Ha. I just encountered a Galtren frigate as well!
