Thank you all for the praise, it is encouraging to say the least.
I must say that I feel my story here has a long way to go to compare to many of the other stories I have seen here.
I've never done any writing in the sci-fi genere- I've done a few short stories, but nothing like this. Ragnarock, Erax, and (I'm sorry, I can't find the thread to remind me of the authors name) the Remeorhaz story are models for what I am doing.
So anything you see here is becuase of THEIR effort.
I've been playing a few turns ahead, and I am still waiting to to get to the point where they go through the warp point. after that, I should be able to add some "thrills and spills" to the story line!
I am finding I play more conservativly this way, mainly becuase I have a ship full of people I am now invested in. How about you?
I should have an update (through the warp point) on Monday sometime... saty tuned.
