It's from one of Harry Turtledove's better series, if you can call it that. At least, that's what I gather. Kobayashi might be talking about the mini-series "V".

Heh!

Who said my premise was going to be devoid of common Sci-Fi themes?
The Vendetta scens always did owe some traits to Command & Conquer...

PS
The reptiloids will have to wait till I make 'David Icke - The CIV2 Scenario'...!

On another note, it is sad to see Ireland's independence gobbled up again by the perfidious British. Sigh.

The map is in an early stage, so I will no doubt make some changes...

Scotland and Ireland might be on different factions before the end...!

You obviously know how to make a scenario appealling to Alex Salmond then.

Definitely turtledove...the human breeding part was a dead givaway.

That slime-ball?
I'd rather drop a nuke on him!

Is that title a referance to the slavic god of chaos or is it actually a region of the Soviet Union?

Wow, great graphics

You are correct on both counts, Jim.

The Chernobog region is where the impact happened,
and is also feared by superstitious Russian peasants,
due to terrible effects of the energies from the crater.

Effects that the player will find out in due course...

UPDATE!

I am almost done with the tech tree, and city improvement lists.

I am waiting on some new units before I can flesh out the later stages.

In the meantime, I will start making icons and some new city sets.

PS
This scenario will be different due to the fact that most of the cities will start off
wrecked and buggered. Some of the early game effort will involve rebuilding infrastructure.

All the factions are quite beaten up after WW2. No Marshall Plans in this alternate world...
With the USA now turned into the UFA, due to the coup - There will be no charity handed out!

They might do some 'missionary' work in the later stages...Keep the coasts guarded!

Some factions have came off more lightly in WW2 than others, but everyone could use a boost
in trade...The discovery of Zeegun processing and the profits from it could certainly expand
the coffers of any faction. Getting into the crater zone could be a bit hazardous though!

More to come...

Might you use another map for that, or will it be on the same one (which seems big enough for it)?

[curtsibling]

All the action will be taking place on the same map.

Curt it's great to see this in development, I always thought Vendetta was a great concept that really deserved to be explored further via further installments.

Now does this game in fact take place in the same storyline as the original Vendetta? I ask out of curiosity, because if memory serves in the original game there had been a nuclear bomb dropped on Germany and an undisclosed chain of events that lead to the world being shaped as it was, though much of Russia was an uninhabited wasteland so the planetary impact could fit into that aspect of the story.

One last question for the road, are all the civ's you listed going to be playable? Albeit some with higher difficulties than others? I only ask to know if civ's like the Islamic Nations and the Nordic Alliance will have their shot at becoming big time super powers in the post war world. Can't wait to see this one!

Hi there, buddy!

This is more like a reboot from the beginning the Vendetta saga. I plan to add another two episodes, set in 1968 and 1998.

Everyone will be playable, and the barbs will be foes to all. Russia will be on the ropes, but so will a badly mauled Germany.
Western Europa has seen the rise of a new commonwealth power, led by the UK/France/USA. The new powers in the North,
South and East will all have the chance to rise and rule, with the help of a crafy and deft player! Some units will
be generic, but I hope to give all the factions some cool unique weapons to employ...Watch this space!

[Arthedain]

I'm back!

And I like what you did to Vendetta Curt. A fresh start isn't such a bad idea IMHO.

We need more pics!!

Looking forward to seing the new sets as well
