Nah, silly Vorlons just plagiarized our cool and slick designs. But since they were copyrighted, we've already filled a lawsuite to Intergalactic Patent Court. They won't get off lightly!

I somewhat doubt you will succeed. The case will become the longest running court case in the galaxy. Mainly because it will be a long time before the Prosecution ever gets a straight answer from a Vorlon http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

I suggest you start a war with them, it'll be quicker and probably cheaper in the long run http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif (can you imagine how much a several million year court battle would cost??? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif)

War, planet-scale atrocities, annihilation of stars are good toys for our kids. But the good trial with several millions of witnesses for the prosecution, >500 petabytes of case datas and medium army of lawyers is much more merciless, abominable and dreadful than galactic war.

Also, with our average lifespan of 2*10^10 years and 2 dozen of neutron stars, ready for transmutation into gold or plutonium (immortality secret, stars and transmuting technologies were obtained by court decision from other race) time and money are insignificant.

Aiken which set do you favor most? It will be the one I do first, and do you want to write the back story for your race and or pick a race portriat?

Green one. But orange colors are neat too. But green is better http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
I'll try to make up something like race description, but it will surely need serious editing (read, spellchecking http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif).
I'm not sure about race portrait. Do you mean I have to find one, or just describe it?

Re: New Race: The Aikenian\'s

I am not so good at making race portraits. If left to me it might not look so good. So if you can find one that you like, it might be better. I will still go ahead and make one. Do you see them as human - humanish - or just alien as alien can be short of not being slugs?

Oh by the way, the set is done, say for the fighters, troops, and weapon platforms, but they shall be done soon. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: New Race: The Aikenian\'s

I like the orange better.

Re: New Race: The Aikenian\'s

Very pretty! I vote for you continuing with the good work you've got started here. Nice job.

Re: New Race: The Aikenian\'s

The Aikenian set is done. (The green one) All except for the back story that is. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: New Race: The Aikenian\'s

I should also note that I am very pleased at how the set looks. I will begin working on the orange one next. I also have one more set in the que that I need to re-rend and finish that I made for a guy Last summer that I have never released.

..Annnnnnnticipaaaaaaation, it's making me wait. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Just one more set in the queue? I'd be willing to bet that will change before you finish http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: New Race: The Aikenian\'s

I have plans for a new set, one that I am toying with in my mind now. This set will be the one I will raffle off to those who donate to NASY. I might even make a couple of more sets and auction them off. I don't know yet.
