Space Empires V....those scenes look sweet

[Alneyan]

I volunteer to help you RD. Aren't you glad of my assistance? Of course you are; silly me. Now, where did I put my whip... Here it is.

*Aims the whip in the general direction of RD (that is, north), with a threatening gesture* Oh, and the whip of course knows where RD is. The compass has been invented to make sure England and France fought each other. Otherwise, it would have been quite confusing, with English soldiers speaking French, and French lands (or most of France from time to time) under English control.

Oh, I was digressing with my alternative history. I would certainly like to see such a mod if it is like Emperor of the Fading Suns. Obviously, unless you needed something about modding, I would be of no assistance whatsoever, but that's nothing new eh?

Well When SEV comes out I'll certainly need people to help come up with Ideas and Such for facilities, descriptions and all that stuff, and general play testing. I'm asking my friend if i can borrow his books when it's released so we can start, Hopefully until that happens, I can just gleam ideas form the current game i'm in.

Also, Try and Whip me Alneyan, but it's winter in England now and that means one thing: "Rain Season." Any attempts to invade my country and we'll have a repeat of the Battle of Agincourt....or Mud Wrestling, but if you're fighting at that range you haven't discovered ranged weapons...like orbital lances

I should be able to do some play testing, especially if you love having analyses serving no actual purpose (aren't numbers lovely?).

Agincourt never happened actually. See, France calls that battle "Azincourt", while Britons call it "Agincourt". Therefore, since the two names do not match, there has been no such battle. Instead, the two armies met themselves, and went to their business afterwards. Oh, the battle itself was quite a disaster, I will grant you that.

Nonetheless, the solution to that problem is quite simple. France merely needs to wait for the monarch doing a good job at ruling England to die. Until then, the strategy is to stay clear from any enemy army, while hoping for that king/queen to die. Once it has happened, the process of reconquest may begin. It is sadly almost literally true; had Henry V not died after that siege, France would have had some serious trouble (and the same could probably go for Henry II and his Angevine Empire).

Therefore, in accord with this policy, I will simply call on the Auld Alliance, and leave Scotland handle the matter of administring the needed whipping. Oh, the Last provisions of the treaty were revoked a century ago; that could be somewhat of a problem. But I will think of something, be sure of it! Even if this means having to do some Mud Wrestling, Mud Crawling or Mud Throwing!

Oh, we were talking about Fading Suns. Is it anything like the strategy game Emperor of the Fading Suns, or is the game simply quite different from the books?

I've only played the video game briefly. But i can tell you now it's similar enough, and with the actual roleplaying game there's easily enough to make a mod from, actually I worry there may be too much to make a mod from
