Economic War 2: Privateer.... thinking about it again
« on: June 16, 2008, 10:25:37 pm »
I have no time.  I have too many kids.  My social life is a nonexistant.

Screw it!  I'm gonna run another campaign!

AOTK4 got me to log onto the D2 again and shake some rust off of my scales.  I had no power for 10 of the last 14 days (damn thunder storms......)  so I didn't do much more than run a few AI missions (and lost most of those results with the reset) but the experience still reminded me how much I loved the D2.

It won't be soon.  In fact it will be months, (yes, plural.  See the time comment above) but I'm going to make this happen.  I'm going to try to run this with the same philosophy as Eco War 1, with a few new toys and -- as the name implies -- access to some imperial warships.  That philosophy is, you don't have to read any of the special rules.  You can just log on and click whatever you find, and that will help your side.  However if you read and use the special rules then you will unlock all sorts of new possibilities for yourself and your team, and maybe experience some things that have never been experienced in this game before.


That's it; nothing more special to say (and I'm crossing the Atlantic tomorrow, so very little more AOTK4 for me.)  Just wanted to give a quick post to let people know it was coming.  You know, "soon".

Oh Hell yeah!  I'd love to see another server where all I had to do was show up and play.

Heh, and another demented server from the mind of Herr Burt is always welcome  ;)

Hmmm .. I wonder if Shtarker is up to having DFly beat the snot out of him a few more times...

Big fan of the Herr Burt series, please do this.
