Hmm...I think it would be epic if mass RP battles took place.

Admin notice:
*Bretonian Military has deciphered a message sent from a Kusari Admiral to their HQ stating an invasion to is to take place on [DATE HERE]*

All Bretonian personnel are to report to their home base to prepare!


^ Things like that...and it would also be sweet if an admin could record the whole event for youtube...depending on who wins, it could change the storyline for further Discovery versions as well! As in, if 6 battles in a year were fought, Bretonia vs Kusari, and Kusari won more than 3 times...they may get some Bretonian space and the battles to be recorded in the official storyline with minor consequences.

Just another small idea!

had the same idea long time ago, to make events and then write the storyline instead of makin events of things that cant be changed...
some players said its a good idea... others said... "It is Igiss stuff you will not change anything"

things for .86 are finished i think

but i hope there will be events in .86 that will affect the .87 storyline before it is written

>.> the OP`s example was really lame...


that is jsut boring..that kind of stuff WILL ONLY HAPPEN when IGISS says it will...and that is always when new versions are released...


so learn the hard way like i did and wait for 4.86

Events like these do happen, on a rare occasion, but don't have a HUGE impact on the story. But it can get a mention in an info-card..assuming you know a writer from within.

I actually believe RP events across the server (But only official scheduled one's like battles and conferences) should affect the mod story.
Actually... idea, I vaguely remember something about a KNF/BAF fight a while back using /restart commands. How about this:
Using the Gailic invasion as an example, even though it's already set in stone:
Different restart commands for normal fighters on each side (Say GRN & Council) for the push through to Sirius, and then some restart commands for bombers, GB's Cruisers, and BS's. Now the higher leveled things on each side could be random number strings, or like a random phrase like: /restart GreenMonkey could get you a GRN BS, then only a select few know these commands, and everyone know the basic fighter/bomber one for each side.
Players join the teams, the battle begins for say Mont Pellier (w/e) guard station, and the winner of the battle is the winner in RP...

This way, the teams could have a few people with BS's (As only a few are told for balance reasons) and a few more with cruisers... etc, on each side... imagine 200 people in one battle? 5 BS's on each side, 10 Cruisers, 15GB's 30Bombers and 40Fighters. EPIC!!!!!!!

There was a large large scale event between the Corsairs/Outcasts in Eta once if I recall correctly.

The entire server lagged and no-one could hit each other within the system co sit was too laggy. So it got canceled half way through.

Well with 4.86 already in motion.. we can't change it with events on the way.

And maybe in next version something will happen like this but still without major impact on story I guess. I think there was plan to use Event server few more times that would be cool..

this is cool signature

Nameless, please desist from +1 trollolololing. there is no such thing as a bad question, only bad answers.

The BAF and KNF do have RP battles from time to time, as do the Corsairs and the RHA, etc etc.

but writing them in as part of the canon is metagaming: anyone NOT present at the RP event would have to conform to YOUR idea of RP...
