DARKSTAR CAMPAIGN UPDATE: DUCHESS ANNABEL’S WAR IS OVER
Darkstar Campaign?
I’d love to start a Darkstar Campaign. I don’t want to speak for anyone, but I feel we could get myself, @damon, and @rasmus lined up, as well as @gladesrunner – that’s four.
I would want to close out THIS project first. It’s really big and cumbersome, takes forever to load – understandably – and I’ve noticed some of the earlier entries have dropped off.
Turns out there is a “size limit” to these projects after all.
I’d like to hit 3500 recommendations on this one, so have a clean cut-over point. So once we hit 3500, there’ll be a new Darkstar project and this one can finally be retired. 😀 Hopefully the new one might kick off with a new campaign, if anyone is interested?
@oriskany Sure I would be up for it
Epic, @rasmus . Preferred factions? I’m assuming the Japanese? Any others? I have some very advanced Japanese commanders, but probably won’t be starting off with them. Build up some new guys to help fill out the ranks of Ozawa’s “Naginata Task Force.” Maybe build her up to her first battleship command. 😀 😀 😀 I will most likely be bringing in Americans. Again, not ALL my Americans are on the level of USS Oriskany, Princeton, Valley Forge, Tarawa, and Daggerfish – or the Endeavor class light fleet carrier USS Liberty. In fact, when my fleet grew too large I split… Read more »
@oriskany yes, I like my IJN force as it stand – As for a back up, any lower tech fraction will do Russians maybe or Chinese, who need carriers if you have Torpedoes by the tons, that don’t give away points when they are shot down
Okay @rasmus – @damon – @gladesrunner – so far we have:
British
Japanese
Americans
Russians
In their last war(s), Japanese and British were enemies, and Japanese and Americans were allies.
Ergo, I PROPOSE (only propose) this war would be:
United States and Holy Russian Empire
vs.
Great Britain and Imperial Japan
This puts my two factions as “enemies,” which is fine, it allows me to balance out any scenarios with an additional small ship on the weaker side.
Possibilities for “support” factions:
Corporations
Arab League
Indian Republic
Cool, sounds like a plan.
Yep 100% up for it
Yep, I’m in
Awesome, @damon . Preferred factions? I’m assuming the British? Any others?
So far we have British, Japanese, and Americans. I think Jenn wants to bring in the Corporate Consortium – a faction for which I also have a decent battlegroup. But I don’t want to bring in three factions myself.
Many times players like to have a “backup” faction for games when their primary faction either wouldn’t work in the narrative or all their ships are in dry dock, etc. Or simply for game balance or variety.
RN all the way.
Be interested in something different for a backup, Arab or Indian perhaps?
I’d watch/read another campaign.
I might, maybe, at some point think about try to launch a fleet.
Epic, @templar007 – Since I’m assuming the @Damon will be bringing in the British, that Cross-class battlecruier might yet make an appearance “in canon.” 😀
Would look forward to reading more about the Darkstar universe and following the campaigns.
Awesome, @gremlin – we also run those on-line, if you want I could start including you on that e-mail thread with the web conference links and invitations. You could spectate as we play in real time (since these aren’t really “modern combat:” and thus don’t make a big appearance on Sitrep Youtube / Twitch).
Thanks very much, that would be great. My e-mail address is [email protected]
