Welcome Thread

Weclome to the new "Stella Polaris" forum. Here's a copy of the official announcement of its opening:

"Apolyton's forum for Stella Polaris (previously known as FreEAC) is now open! The forum is being moderated by Rasbelin (Project Manager) and Blake (Project Chief Executive Officer).

For those unfamiliar with the game, SP is an open source project that is currently planning and programing a free turn based strategy game about interstellar and extraterrestial colonisation. Quoting one of the members of the development team: "A free game developed by gamers who always wished that existing [turn-based strategy] games could have been something more than they are. It is a game of hope and inspiration, set on an alien planet, where your leadership would determine the future of a species." The game is more concentrated on the multiplayer concept with many players (16 or so), but it will also be able to play it as a singleplayer game.

Let the discussion begin!"

I think I speak for a lot of people when I say Good Luck with the project.

[Sonic]

I also want to say good luck...

[Blake]

Most Excellent! Thanks DanQ, MarkG, Rasbelin, and anyone else that helped make this forum a reality

[Mark_Everson]

I wish you the great success with SP. I checked out the forum in a cursory fashion, but I couldn't find a web page with design info. I did see a thread about a web page but it was filled with deadlinks Have you got a web page?

Again, good luck with the project!

As one developer to another, good luck!

[Rasbelin]

Thank you very much for the good co-operation, Dan and Markos!

I will start adding parts to the FAQ here ASAP. I didn't expect the forum until the weekend, so there's a delay. Sorry.

Hey, I want also a cool title like Rasbey and Blake, or I won't play with you guys.





[edit]: Oh yes, thank you all responsible for this forum.

[Rasbelin]

Aaglo, just apply for the RoN or MOO3 staff memberships. You'll get a title then too, except that it will be customisable unlike my and Blake's.

[aaglo]

C'mon everybody, join us to the trip to Stella Polaris!

[aaglo]

Oh, It took me a while to figure out what you meant with the 'Rise of Nations or Master of Orion 3 Staff...'

Nah, I haven't followed those forums at all, so I'm not that interested.

[Rasbelin]

I see. Anyway, I would call that off-topic spam. Should I call for Ming? You could get a free ticket to Mingapulco.

[aaglo]

You don't scare me.

[Gramphos]

I'll follow the progressof this game with great interest.
