Discussion
I hope I archived it right. Ty294 {Talk}
 * Looks like. Anyway, do you have any specifications for characters? Precise ones? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  18:07, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Not much other then the one who is a former Srav officer who had deserted the Sravs because he didn't beleive in their ideals. He is more or less a parody of the advisor from Republic Commando. I plan on voicing this character myself. Other then that, I have nothing on the player character and the only thing I have for the other is that he/she is human. Ty294  {Talk}  18:32, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps the player character could be left ambigious, or maybe he could be suffering amnesia about his past, which, while a bit clichéd, could make for interesting abilities. As for voicing, I look forward to over-the-top Slavic accents. ;) Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  18:49, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I look forward to over-the-top Slavic accents. Very likely. But there still is the issue of what the player character is. Human? Near-human? Rodian? Trandoshan? Taung? BTW, how do you pronounce "Taung"? I always think "Tongue" but I have not idea.  Ty294  {Talk}  18:58, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'd say humanoid, just as a starting point. Anyway, I'd say it Tau-ng, but you may want to ask someone else. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  19:03, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Now there is the issue of The Force. My idea is to change some of the effects and say everything is based out of some battery-powered armor. EXP: Lightning - Flamethrower, Jump - Jetpack, Push/Pull - Air blasts. Ty294  {Talk}  19:11, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I suppose push could be a shotgun blast, and pull could be...grappling hooks, maybe? Magnets? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  19:13, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * A grappling hook wouldn't work cause I'd hove no way of making an effect that resembles one. Magnetic stuff would work though. Ty294  {Talk}  22:27, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, we could do that. As for jump, we could just handwave that with 'low gravity environments', if it saves bother. After all, in a lot of scifi, people tend to walk and jump the same no matter what planet they're on. ;) Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  22:53, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * That's fine, and we could say that he is aided by a powersuit or something. Now, back to character development. The player char can be left out for now, but what about the second merc (Merc C)? I'm not sure, but he/she could either be a former Nec or a career Merc. I'm also thinking it could be possible for the Taung to be working with a certain group of assassins (to replace the Reborn) who have been hired to kill the mercs. The mod is progressing well thus far, but I have yet to hit the hard parts yet. Ty294  {Talk}  21:11, December 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I was thinking that maybe he could be some ex-Nec SpecOps who was left for dead and has decided to go merc for the simple reason that he's officially dead and can now do what he likes. As for assassins...perhaps they could just be Taung intelligence commandos, or some DTM guys. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  21:07, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
 * Onless the DTM are actually working with the Taung. The thing is that the "assassins" would have swords and the modified "force" powers so I doubt Taung Intelligence agents would work. I had some alien assassins in mind or maybe some new sort of Taung military branch. Ty294  {Talk}  15:34, December 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps they could be some fancy cult. Or maybe they could be specialist Taung with Force sensitivity, which the others interpret as psionic mutations, seeing as the Force isn't really understood in this era. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  18:12, December 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * Some sort of religous cult sounds good. Now, they are armed with melee weapons, so exactly what exactly would fit? Just simple swords? Maybe electric charged swords? Ty294  {Talk}  16:19, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Just simple blades would be fine. Fixed to their wrists, maybe. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  16:24, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * I doubt I can fix a blade to their wrists. Anyway, how about the locations? The first two worlds have to be a Taung-controlled (I'm thinking a moon for one and Axra Prime for the other). Ty294  {Talk}  17:00, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * How will these worlds look like? I'd say some random moons in the Sinya system, yeah. Maybe we could have a gas giant with many moons and have it around that. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:02, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Both will be fairly dark at the time the missions occur. I was thinking the first could be a rocky or perhaps foresty moon somewhere along the Nec/Taung border if they have one. Axra Prime would be a dusty canyon system and either at night or during an overcast day. Ty294  {Talk}  17:42, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * I think a dark, foresty moon would be more atmospheric. Perhaps, as I said, it could be in the Sinya system, or in the adjacent system, seeing as the Sinyans don't seem to spread much further than that. Could a twilight or dusk setting be doable? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  17:48, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * The settings on the two planets I'm editing is pretty much that way to begin with. I'm using the yavin sky textures and darking them. Basicly we'll have a dark forest moon with a gas giant above it. I still disagree with the location though, I think it should be closer to the major faction's borders since the mercs will start the game by working with one of them. Ty294  {Talk}  18:04, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Remind me which major faction--the one that would make the most sense is the Sravs, as they'll have had to attack Sinya from somewhere and the Taungs were mainly concentrating towards them. Perhaps after a stint in the Sinya system they could end up chasing some person or objective to another one that's nearer what you have in mind--do they have their own ship? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  18:08, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, and that brings up another issue. Vehicles. I'm gonna have to figure out something to replace the AT-ST, Mark I & II droids, probe droids, and other things. In some cases a humanoid droid may work. Anyway, they'll have had to attack Sinya from somewhere I'm not sure where you got that idea, but the Sravs are probably fine as the merc's client. Ty294  {Talk}  19:09, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * What I meant was that the Sravs were expanding their borders when they looked at Sinya, so their borders should logically be in its vicinity. Anyway, I'm not sure about droids, as robotics in this era doesn't appear to extend beyond UAVs. If there's any skins for Warthog-like vehicles, buggies, or simple tanks, those might do. Incidentally, on a slightly unrelated and random track, here's a 'theme song' for the Sinyan forces: ;)  Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  19:19, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey, I was looking through the battles that have been created since I was gone, and I noticed that it was pretty one sided between the Taung and the Sinyans, the Sinyans won most of the battles, or it was a pyrrhic victory for the Taung. The Taung put up quite a fight against the Sravs and devote their entire lives to combat so I was thinking that perhaps I could write a few more battles to even the war out. Also by the way, the religious cult with psionic abilities could work as I believe that the Taung had a force sensitive clan that acted as the honor guard of the Mandalore.
 * Well, I think some of the battles were space-based, where the Sinyans took heavy losses anyway even in the ones they won, and plus these were only the forces of one warlord. I think they did have at least one good win. And perhaps that cult could be treated as a special operations unit by the Taung, like a Psi-ops type thing--of course, it's the Force they're using, but nobody understands that. What should we call it? Some fancy name, or something like 'Taung Psi-Ops', or both? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  19:59, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Also Unit would you like to make these two articles: Petya Malenkov and Srav Outer Rim Exploration Flotilla. Or shall I? Still it seems kind of one-sided and I would like to even it out a little. Besides I thought the whole point was to batter the Sinyans so that they would go running to the UCW for help. Also yeah, it could be Taung Psi-Ops, it could be a special clan that could act as the honor guard of the Mandalore, or it could just be a branch of Taung Intelligence. Any of them are fine with me.
 * We changed the plan, I think--Ty can clarify. I think the Sinyans go up to the UCW for help afterwards, as we realized that the Taung get knocked out of the war before the UCW enters, I think. Anyway, I think the group could be all three--if you have any ideas, feel free to make the article, and then we can add or change stuff as need be. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  20:07, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ya, the Sinyans do get beat up real bad but they don't go to the UCW until after the conflict with the Taung is over. (See aftermath in Battle of Karccev.) Ty294  {Talk}  20:08, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Incidentally, Ty, what do you think of my proposed Sinyan theme? Incidentally, I was thinking of a few Sinyan weapons for before/during the Srav occupation. As there seems to be a WW2 aesthetic to the Sinyans in that time, here's my suggestions:, , ,  Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  20:58, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * The second and fourth could work. I like the second best. I do have a Thompson model for JK2 that I can use as well. As for the theme, I like yours although the second track in the dark forces soundtrack (Kyle Katarn's Theme) is also kinda cool.  Ty294  {Talk}  23:14, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * A Tommy gun may be too conspicious, unless we have Taung in fedoras. ;) I personally like the first and the fourth best. If you could think of names, that'd be cool--remember, we aren't necesserily putting these in the mod. And I can't access that track, sorry. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  23:22, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Taung in fedoras. That can be arranged . Also, to access that music track right-click it then press "open" and it will play on Windows Media Player. Ty294  {Talk}  23:30, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see. Nice track, but I think it may be more suited for an individual. By the way, we need to decide on names for the other two characters. Maybe it would be easier to establish callsigns first. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  23:33, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey Unit do you have any images I can use for articles about Sravs in my novel?
 * One. Crop it on Paint or whatever to single out the man you want. Two. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  23:46, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * If I go through with using Republic Commando voices for some of the chars, the main guy's call sign could be "Chief" or "Boss". The second guy could be "Scorch" or "Delta", and Chestikov (the Srav guy) could be "Advisor" or "Delta". Ty294  {Talk}  23:54, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Scorch and Advisor would be more appropiate. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  23:58, December 21, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, there is also "Sev" and "Fixer". Or they can go by numbers. "62", "40", "38" or "07". And note these are the nicknames/callsigns of the RC characters. Ty294  {Talk}  01:42, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Maybe the numbers or the other callsigns, because that'd be too obvious, IMO. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  01:44, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * I like "Chief" and "Delta" for the player and Nec chars. Ty294  {Talk}  04:04, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. There anything else we need to discuss? Incidentally, perhaps per Storm's suggestion we could add one more skirmish to the Taung-Sinya campaign? And possibly create an actual article for the campaign? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  20:58, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Sure, an attempted raid on Sinya itself would prolly be the best bet. I also think it'd be fun to involve one of the other major factions in a skirmish between the Taung and Sinyans. Wouldn't a Taung-Srav-Sinyan battle solidify our victory as the most collaborative authors in the Wiki-awards?  Ty294  {Talk}  21:48, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Nah, I was thinking more of a raid on a mining colony on some moon. And I don't think the other factions would overly care, no offence. ;) So, are there any more items on the agenda regarding the mod? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  21:52, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well here me out on this. Say the Sravs send a task force to try and flank the Taung during the early invasion and they end up on the edge of Sinyan space where they clash with SDF and Taung raiders. The Sravs of course, ignore and forget about the Sinyans after the battle. Oh, I'll post some pics on the planets in the mod in a bit. Ty294  {Talk}  23:03, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Nah, I established that the Sravs have basically chosen to forget about Sinya and that area. However, the Necs might make more sense, or perhaps a bunch of Savis who end up getting sucked into the battle. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  23:06, December 22, 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I doubt the Sinyans would want to get into war with the Necs since there are a number of fascists in high authority in the Imperium and in all likelyhood, they'd end up allies. If anything, I'd most want a conflict with the Zayre, but of course they're prolly nowhere near the Sinyans. A faction of the DTM could work however, and it would fit into the mod. Ty294  {Talk}  01:44, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, it could be just an isolated Nec taskforce or flotilla, that barely registers the Sinyan presence. As for Zayre, we could have a small element of them that got lost during their exodus from their homeworld, or even a rogue sect--I'm sure DT wouldn't mind, now that he's gone. Although a DTM cell would work best and maybe make the most sense, or even just random raiders. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  15:21, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Some of this would depend on the timeline. The DTM would fit in better during the 3rd year and during the Taung/Sinyan conflict, while the Zayre would be best in between the Srav occupation and the Taung war during the Sinyan expansion. The Necs would work either way, and in fact, could be in the territory at the same time as the others and perhaps even help the Sinyan forces (or vice-versa) defeat them. We could, have both a DTM/Taung alliance vs Sinya battle during the later war, and the Nec/Sinyan vs Zayre battle during the earlier war, although it might seem strange that the Sinyans could survive all that. Off-topic: Are you having issues with the picures not showing up? The smilies and icons on this page are invisable to me at times. Ty294  {Talk}  16:12, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Wait--this is the Taung/Sinyan conflict we're talking about here? The extra battle as suggested by Storm, right? Anyway, as the DTM aren't really helping the Taung outright, but it could be a small group that's ostensibly going along with them but is more concerned with gathering intelligence regarding their abilities. And I think it may be too egrerious if we have the Sinyans go through all that earlier stuff you suggested--they are a backwater planet, and they have been roughed up by war and an occupation. The best options ultimately are the DTM, Savis, and maybe a sect of Zayre. And I'm not having any problems with the page. BTW, do you have any new mod stuff to show? Like environments? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  16:20, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ya I was thinking more a sect of the DTM and not the main organization itself. As for images: Axra Prime: Moon suggestion 1:  A suggestion for a Taung airspeeder: .  Ty294  {Talk}  16:45, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it'd have to be a special cell or group like the DKA. As for the pics, I like them, but the airspeeder looks a bit goofy, no offence. Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  16:47, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * I know, but I have little to work with. I have a couple other vehicles that are transports I'll show you later. And ya, this DTM cell should be or spy group or something. Ty294  {Talk}  18:13, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * You think an article should be made? What should we call it--something like Viper Cell, or some fancier name? Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  18:14, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Also, as Rhea has said, we need a new leader. I think the person is obvious: all in favor of me say aye. There's not that many of us, so I don't think a vote is necessary.  Unit 8311 [[Image:1110 Big small.jpg|20px]] Talk!  23:44, December 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * Aye. Sorry I haven't been active lately. There's been school work as usual, and I kind of forgot about the Project 'till now. ---Ping(JediCommando) 00:25, December 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * Aye. And yah, I'll make an article for that DTM cell, but I want to get an image of some of their militants first. Ty294  {Talk}  17:59, December 24, 2009 (UTC)
