Reine Blanche? (Semi Unoffical Offical Topic)

Post by Minku »

I heard from a friend of a friend of a friend of my good buddy *name is blanked out* that Hedgey said Reine Blanche will be up soon...

Can you give us more infomation on Blanche, and maybe a targeted date? This explains why there seems to be someone at Blanche more often and hedgey isn't on Roja much.

RB is basically the same as reina, only a lot quicker, unless hedge changes it.

reina's a template of sorts, mainly in that most of the vehicle settings and weapon assignments are all nice and balanced.

it'll still be a little bit: fooli and i are making models for it at the moment, and i'm going to texture a few more things for it than initially planned.

gameplaywise it's a hybrid of battlezone, iridis, and some kind of reina type exploration. look-and-feel wise, i'm aimin' for a grungier, doom/quakelike looking post-apocalyptic sorta thing.

choose between three options: defender, attacker or mechanic.

for those of you that've read through bienzor's diary and the book of quests on reina, each 30 minute round will depict a legendary battle from roja's not-so-distant past between the raffarin and the chiraci. this is pre-sarkozian era, so no mind control devices, but you might see a wild sandworm or two.

the story: the chiraci have had their communications cut off from the rest of the universal alliance while defending themselves during the last raid. the raffarin, their numbers considerably lowered from their last wave of assaults, have formed an alliance with syndicate prime, a faction of trade pirates from far outside the startworld federation.

as a mechanic or attacker, you'll join the raffarin and syndicate prime and recreate a decisive battle. or join the defenders, and change the course of chiraci history.

defenders will also have the chance to get a special bienzor and mertrias alt skin for their characters.

for more info on the matriarch worlds backstory, you can purchase both books at your team's bookstore on reina. it's the large brick structure next to the datacenter (the orange square with the D on the map).

bienzor's diary has a current selling price of 10 sheckles. the book of quests is 100 sheckles.

I am going to only say one word, which will fuel out all my thoughts and make the simplest, kick ass statement.

Coooooooooooooool!

the sarkozians (aka: the polar cliffs people) are a bit more mysterious than the other two. their motivations are rather vague. being the oldest of the three cultures, their flight and spacetravel technology is of the highest order. they like polar climates, and generally survive on glacial runoff. their culture largely revolves around wind and water elements.

some say they even lived during the time of an ancient precursor race, who's technology the verindi managed to tap into before they mysteriously disappeared from reina roja.

blah blah blah :]
