PostSubject: Death Troopers   Sat Nov 14, 2009 4:38 am

Hey,

Ok. I just finished reading the "Death Troopers" book. If you want to read a Star Wars book, with an added twist that you'd never expect in Star Wars, as well as bone chilling suspense and creepiness, read this book, or better yet, listen to the Audiobook of it.

I listened to the Audiobook. It adds a much larger amount of horror to the book with the sounds and everything else it uses. Everything from unique dialogue voices for individual characters, Star Wars music to impact certain situations, ambient noise, sounds to impact the situation (ie. wookie cries, instead of just reading "he growled"), and so much more that gives it almost a "movie-like" feeling.

Personally, I couldn't stop listening. In the same manner as someone would get so into a book that they just couldn't put it down. Took me less than a day to finish the 45 chapter book, and that was actually with a lot of pauses (as well as sleep. lol)

I really recommend this book. I know a lot of people are iffy on the idea of zombies in Star Wars, but it's a surprisingly -awesome- story.

On this note, I had actually wondered if I'd get permission to perhaps -attempt- to at least design the areas for possibly implementing the Purge Prison Vessel as well as the Star Destroyer that they dock to. Probably won't get accepted, I know, but hey, you can't know anything unless you ask, right? ^_^

But anyways...yes. Read this book, and better yet, listen to the audiobook. It's awesome. XD

I think it would be a nice idea if the management group "hired" a new guy for importing new areas and polishing them up and adding scripts to them and what-not. Perhaps one of our new DMs is fit for this task?

I actually wouldn't mind becoming a builder for the server...though....I'd only be able to do basic stuff. Someone else would have to work scripts. I'd just do basic area designs and possibly encounters, examinable objects, etc. Stuff that basically falls into the -easy- part of the toolset (ie. Program Wizards, creating areas, creating and placing creatures, weapons, items, chests, examinable objects, possibly dialogue people or items, etc. (pretty much anything that doesn't involve writing out and understanding scripts. heh.)

Another thing I could maybe do is attempt to create some interesting characters that may not be in the database or whatever. Like...some characters that would have been in the Star Wars universe during this period in time, in the Expanded Universe, like Kyle Katarn and Jan Ors, for instance.

Thanks,

-Tractus-

You are at least allowed to make areas without items, monsters or scripts on them.

Anything else you should ask Quix, MD or Pug about. Before you make areas you may want to ask them anyway, so you can get the proper hak order.

As for the possibility of making the ships, by this time, the ship would have already fallen back into Imperial custody. An idea blossoming from the Star Wars Galaxies content gives me an idea to make a quarantined area that the Empire was secretly experimenting with the virus, and went horribly wrong. *shrugs* Probably easier than explaining the ships or something. I dunno. heh. Just an idea.
