Discovery 4.86 Storyline: Tau Conquest

[Unseelie]

Kurosara: The french have won a lot of wars. And the french of the period that Gallia were based on were the sole world power. Except for the Mayans and the Chinese.

4.86 isn't a complete loss guys!!! Gives flamers something to flame about!

Yeah. And for that, I do love it, because otherwise, what would I do on the long nights between my drunken escapades?

It isn't as terrible as some would have you believe. It will make the game interesting and will provide more opportunities for interaction. As for story, it's been ridiculous since Vanilla.

Myself, I considered the game set up as it was before the introduction of Gallia quite interesting and full of opportunities for interaction, and am willing to say that anyone who needs Gallia to spice things up really isn't looking at this world correctly. Why, they may even be dividing the game into Lawful Vs Unlawful, which is a tragic and ubiquitous fault of this community, whereby they ignore the fact that, one, every base in space requires for its survival a reasonably strict set of 'laws' and is by all the qualifications of nations a nation state of its own, joined into other nation states by federalization. Furthermore, lawful great houses war with one another, and their lawful corporations support unlawful groups, and those unlawful groups engage in lawful acts of terrorism against enemies, and law, in space where the only power is the power to open guns and kill, in the clear absence of a universal social contract, is a ridiculous construct.

The game without Gallia is quite immersive, entertaining, and bright, and the introduction of Gallia does nothing to increase that detail, and does in many places leave more holes than answers in the backdrop, which, if we are to hold ourselves to any standard of quality, is frankly inexcusable.

We don't need more opportunities for interaction. We have so many, in every place, that failing to notice them is simply pathetic. Additionally, if you mean, specifically, human interaction, adding space only serves to dissipate the network, decreasing its connectivity and thus its value.
