Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread
Are you sure, because most of the stories rated 4-7th grade level by the Flesch-Kincaid Grade rating.

From some website:
I think in that case Hemmingway would rate around a second grade level.

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread
Now, here is a little game :
the player who shall discover the 2 meanings of "Memento moris" shall win the Tyrean's frienship.
No offense to the human-style players (me included!) but I am eager to encounter some really alien species.... Got a few ideas for these.....
Oh, and by the way, please DO NOT put too much attention on my race's description when we'll meet, as I quite changed its style while writing.
The tyrean are what the story describe, not what can be found in the racial sociology.

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread
I've been deliberately trying to be subtle about references that show the alien qualities of the Eifralo. From their perspective, they're the normal ones.
I'm looking forward to the First Contact events, too. I've got some ideas already about things other races would notice about Eifralo that they themselves take for granted.

Re: History of the Galaxy II Discussion Thread
Humm, in a standard PBW game, with no worlds having breathable atmosphere in the 9 surrounding systems  , I would think "it's lost".
Now, it's just more fun .....Have any of you ever played homeworld  ?
