CRAZY STUFF!


Thus the seeds of the New Conglomerate are being sown, long before there ever was a New Conglomerate.

Hmm, that depends. Are these civvies open to taking Vanu into their lives? My trigger finger tends to get a bit itchy when there are heathens around.

Good stuff. I like reading the fiction, it feels like there is a lot more going on than some fighting on a planet. Keep it up devs.

I liked the translated read of the story but for some reason I don't feel like that's how he wouold speak or think.


I thought it was ok. Could've been better. It was good to learn more about the TR although there was definatley some convenience. I don't know why he bothered to mention ion warheads just to say that they weren't used and no one knows why.

I also thought the transition could've been better. Hey no one's experienced war. It's all we knew. Felt like readers were being forced into the transition of further in the past.


I felt it was an ok read. Accomplished what it needed to but nothing more.

It was just fun to toy with it when people were pointing out the grammar errors in the story. I figured I'd give them a whole truckload of grammar errors!

And he mentions some weapons that they never used. Perhaps these are allusions to some of the stuff coming up in PS2.
