    • BFS III Pertinent Info III


      Hopefully this will be the last one, since I intend to start soon...

      I may edit this to add some additional links later, but for now the only really important one is the (url="http://"http://members.home.net/e-gamerguy1/ev/bfs3/")BFS III Homepage(/url), since it has most of the other links anyway.

      To respond to some of spl's questions and such: First, the darker interior squares designate Core Worlds. That was sort of a quasi-official thing for the HC in BFS II, in BFS III it's going to be official for all governments. I forgot to add the legend last night, and realized that after I got off my computer for the night. I'll add that a bit later today.

      The pirates probably do have a bit more than you should really, Skyblade is right there. If you're wondering why you lost all of your old territory to the North-East, my assumption is that the bulk of the HC's fleets would have been there driving out the Aliens, and swept away the pirates with them. You got more on the other side of the galaxy, so quit whining. 😛

      Shade, about the Jumpgates, ther may well not still be 4 jumpgates once I revise the Sentarus Map to include uninhabited systems and make it smaller. 😉

      Glad to hear my post made at least some kind of sense. 😉

      By the way, if you guys do want me to be an actual player in BFS III, I have no problem with that. I just don't have the time to create all the graphics and other required data.

    • The amount of Pirate systems is pretty realistic, I think. Nice map. What are the money-making rules for BFS III (i.e. Money per system, how many topic pages between getting money)?

      I'm assuming that the fleet-building rules are finished ($500M, no more than $200M of one ship type). True?

    • Much to Shade's distaste, I have returned. Anyone may head (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum6/HTML/001907-2.html")here(/url) to see the whole explanation. However, I have come to ask: Am I still "in?" I saw a topic about registering in three days before the Departure... I hope I have not been "ommitted".

      Sure. Just refresh my memory as to which government you were going to be with and such.

      Asriel - I haven't quite finalized the money rules yet. Money making will be similar if not the same. For the initial fleet money, I may kick it up to 600 million, or it may stay at 500 mil. Haven't decided for sure yet.

      Skyblade, I'd be extremely pleased to have you as a player still. I assume you want to stay with the Dreden?

      BTW, Asriel, I had a really tough time pricing your Ghost, since I haven't had to assign value based almost solely on speed before. It's definitely in the 300000 to 400000 range, but I'm still open to discussion on that, if you want to try to convince me that it's speed isn't worth as much as I might have thought at first.

    • I would like to re-name myself, using my original screenname.

      CyberDragon
      Ailen (though I'd like to switch to Dreden)
      A Fleet Commander, though Shade may have changed that.

      So your initials would be CD, correct? I think the Dreden panel is full...

      Also, Skyblade, are you up to being president of the Dreden still, just not graphics and organization, or only as a regular player?

      I'd be very happy to have you join, actually. It's really never too late. This is going to be a competitive webstory/game. For the basics of how it will work and some background, refer to the first post (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum6/HTML/001789.html")here(/url). For an example of this system in action, and further background, read through (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum6/HTML/001670.html")BFS II(/url). For what went before that (and also an example of the kind of structure that you may see in the Soda War), refer to the original, (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum6/HTML/001571.html")Battle for Sol (the ultimate bar)(/url).

      Hope that helps. You can join any of the four governments: Human Confederation (Rebel and Confed remnant allied), Pirates, Aliens, or Dreden Rebellion. Just keep in mind that I may kick some people around to balance teams before starting (especially if all the Dreden players show up).

    • Could I have a link to what describes BFS? I noticed that it's been getting a lot of hits on the topics recently and wondered: Is this a Plug? Is it a new RPG?
      Please provide a link for me.

      Thanks!

      It's an RPG. Go look at the links in Macavengers post.

      Reminds me: I will not be doing a plug based on BFSIII. Sorry. My plug making skills aren't nearly good enough, the ships wouldn't fit into the game, and if it is anything like BFSII it is going to be too hectic.

      You betcha. I actually enjoy the position (president) , the graphics and such just take forever to create and get stressful. As long as UE Crusader hasn't posted requested the Dreden presidential seat, I'll remain where I was.

      Well, maybe you better eMail him then, since I already did and offered it to him when I thought you were gone for good. I haven't heard from him though, so I guess you're still it.

      Azdara Ace, something occurred to me last night - given that Skyblade doesn't have time to do Dreden graphics and some of the work I've seen you do in Mechanisto, would you be willing to join the Dreden as their ship designer? You would still have a fleet, if you want.

      Moose - like Lyra, remind me what government you're with and your initials and such, and welcome back.

      Oh, and the map should be updated with a legend on it now. 🙂

      P.S. Skyblade, are you still forgetting something? Hint - textures and eMail. If you need more, look up at your ceiling, you said you put a note there. 😛

      If anybody needs any organizational help with this, feel free to e-mail me.
