7 custom faction for Smacx

[Buster's Uncle]

I just went through your album, and I think your logos are all very nice, actually.

[ariete]

if in these days, between one thing and other, you have some ideas and want to revisited it can be a more version to choise or to put beside

[Buster's Uncle]

I think the numbered base names make sense for military factions, but will be annoying to players...

[ariete]

... i've not enough fantasy  ... i looking for help in this way. i think me, you and Rym (and Kilk if he want) can make a shock to this project

[ariete]

from this day call me Admiral ...

[Buster's Uncle]

Yes, Admiral.

I think that's only the second self-made custom avatar on AC2.

[Kilkakon]

FYI none of these pictures work for me in IE8, so can't comment right now, but when it's working I'll check back.

Hi friends, my projects developments:

i’ve revisited the brief historical-story contest:

Spartan sended a space-ship expedition to colonize a new planet of
Centauri system. There were on board officers of the different spheres
 compose the glorious Spartan Federation. But happen what happened to
Unity so the mission split in 5 human faction and 2 aliens.

(Unity II is the name of ship but i hope anyone suggest a better name … as ‘Oplita’ or ‘Falange’ … do you like?)

In this order this is the main guide line of the factions:

1. Polis of the Elite

The Polis of the Elite borned to reunify this mission.

The Polis of the Elite borned to reunify this mission.
^BACKGROUND: {Unity II Ship's Staff Coordinator}
^AGENDA: {State-City Aggregation}

The base name can replace a sort of new ‘Magna Grecia’ the big colonization area in south Italy at the age of greek polis (Sparta, Tebe and i should mantein the name of the Peleponneso league)

2. United Districts

The machinery of militar police founded an Union of Districts, each
governed by his Judge, togheter under the guide of the Supreme Judge,
the chief of Judges.

3. Storms Confederation

The air force machinery founded a society based on the exploration and study
of this element.

^BACKGROUND: {Unity II Security Air Chief}
^AGENDA: {Confederacy Cities}
^TECH: {Advanced Military Algorithms, Doctrine: Air Power, Matter Compression, Mind/Machine Interface, Nanometallurgy}

4. Navy Federation

The navy machinery focused his colonization on the vast sea of the Planet and
founded a society based on the exploration and study of this element.

^LEADER: {Admiral Karma Svanzkuffer}
^BACKGROUND: {Unity II Navy Officer}
^AGENDA: {Acquatic Faction}
^TECH: {Adptive Doctrine, Doctrine: Flexibility, Doctrine: Initiative, Nanometallurgy}

5. Free Companies League

The free companies take the own way and was reunited by a Warlord in a coalition,
 but the differents between the clans remained.

#DATALINKS1
^LEADER: {Warlord Vladimir Sorbjesk}
^BACKGROUND: {Unity II Contractor}
^AGENDA: {Coalition - League}
^TECH: {Adaptive Doctrine, Bio-Engineering}
^


For the aliens faction i think in this way:

The alien legion, recruited during the centuries by the Spartans, splits in two
clashing factions. One mantained the name of Alien Legion involving in
 Empire, the other taked the way of an indipendent Alien Protectorate.

6. Alien Protectorate

#DATALINKS1
^LEADER: {Guardian Lular H'minee}
^BACKGROUND: {Unity II Alien Legionary}
^AGENDA: {Reunion of Aliens Life Form}
^

7. Alien Legion Empire

#DATALINKS1
^LEADER: {Conqueror Judaa Marr}
^BACKGROUND: {Unity II Alien Legionary}
^AGENDA: {Subvert Planet for Galactic Domination}
^

i’ve thinked to give for both alien facs these bonus:

ALIEN, 0, OFFENSE, 125, SOCIAL, +MORALE, SOCIAL, +PLANET, FUNGNUTRIENT, 1, FUNGMINERALS, 1, FUNGENERGY, 1, PSI, 25

what happen BU media section is disable???

[Buster's Uncle]

We're having a software update because of all the problems lately with our server.  Many functions are not yet restored.  Tomorrow, probably.  sisko is working very hard to fix everything.

Albums should be back by this time tomorrow - maybe.  We hope.  Pictures are still there in old posts, so the albums are still there, only we can't get at them today.

[sisko]

after the update and running maintenance on the gallery i discovered some problems with ariete's pictures:

The following errors were discovered when searching for errors
The physical file #1144, used with item 444, is missing.
The physical file #1147, used with item 445, is missing.
The physical file #1156, used with item 448, is missing.

i think it is better to delete those pictures and reupload them in tha gallery as the entries are generating errors so, i'm asking for ariete's permission to do it..

[ariete]

maybe were those i deleted when i upload last time the 4 new pcx factions ... i think ... however you got all permissions you want, you're tha admin

[ariete]

ah no are storms confederation and navy ... [poop]

[ariete]

ok admins it' all restored

about pcxs, i change yellow base shadows to black for correct shadows colour in game, then i modify the colour of disctricts united in blu-grey, now this fac is more different to Navy fed.
I've also changed bases of free companies league and for polis of the elite

about txt : i've played with my proofs a game, storms have not yet TECH MatComp, now is more balanced

..... ah cool my new avatar .... 

[Buster's Uncle]

Do you really think that's cool with your avatar, or would you like me to do something about it?
