    • Foundation


      Yea!!! I finally have a plug idea!! 😄

      I want to make a plug that takes place in the Galactic empire, created by Isaac Asimov in his foundation series. Has anyone here read them? I coul have level swhere you have to land on terminus, find the second foundation, destroy the Mule, discover the secret of Gaia, and find Earth..

      Now I just have to jind ou thow to use Hera. :eek:

      Chack out an awsome shareware game, MacBrickout:(url="http://"http://www.leapfrogsw.com")leapfrogsw.com(/url) I made the Mania Levels!

    • Yeah, I've read them all. I'm not sure they'd work that well within the Ares framework though. It'd be interesting to develop such a plug. I could test it for you!

      ------------------
      Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

    • It would work good in an EVo plug, if anyone's hood at making those.

    • Nah, the EVO editor sucks. At least it did a few years ago, when I last tried to get it to work. However, certain elements of the Foundation sagas would work, the Mule wars for example, or General Royce's campaign against the Foundation. Might be interesting to plan a storyline.

    • I think I'm aiming for a sequel to The Foundation series. I have an idea for the first few missions, which takes place right after (i)Foundation and Earth(i). Here's what I have so far:

      Galaxia has begun. The robot on the moon has joined brains to keep on living, to hold the Galaxy togerther spreads to the Andromedia Galaxy. Unfortunutely, The second Foundation regards Galaxia as a threat. A second Generation of Gravitational ships are invented on Terminus. The ships are powerful enough to escape the Galaxy.....

      Or, I could include several Parts. The first would be the Mule Wars, the Second General Royce's campaign against the Foundation, and the third a continuation of the story. I'd have to read (i)Foundation and Empire"(i) again--I forget a lot of it. What do you think?

    • Foundation and Empire definitely has a lot of areas where plugs could be developed from. Also, the Warlord of Kalgan deserves a bash!
      Er, I think one galaxy is enough for starters! Andromeda is far away. Perhaps an invasion by Andromedans....
      Actually, the pre-Foundation Empire stories (Pebble in the sky for example) have possibilities too. But foundation and Empire is the best. I kind of forget some of the details of Second Foundation. Maybe I need an excuse to re-read the books!

    • I like your idea about an invasion by Andromedans.
      I need to read the Empire books. I've only read the Foundation series and I, Robot. Here is a rough draft of the proplogue:

      Golan Trevize has chosen humanity's future.

      But that future doesn't come with dangers.

      The child from a Forbidden World and the 20,000 year old robot on the Moon have joined their brains--Galaxia has begun.

      Unfortunutely, not everyone is for Galaxia. The news is spreading of its arrival, and some worlds are turning against it--Terminus included. The Foundation still believes the Seldon Plan is right.

      Also, the planet from which the child was taken has turned into a hostile enemy. Ten years have passed since Trevize found the Moon, and from that time, that Forbidden World has developed hyperspatial travel.

      And they apparently don't like the use of one of them for Galaxia--they want to be alone.

      What's more is that SETI instruments have found out something startling: something is in the Andromedia Galaxy.

      Something alive & intelligent.

    • Sounds like an intragalactic civil (as the galaxy is united at this point) war there. If I were the Andromedans, I would infiltrate my feindish forces and support the weaker of the two sides...
