GalaxyMage Redux "Lore"

that listed the descriptions of the four factions and the brief unit
descriptions he had thus far for each faction.
http://docs.google.com/View?docid=dck3f83z_0smc24t I like the
factions and have already had some inspiration for their design. Are
we planning on continuing to use these factions?
Would it be possible to add that design document to the group under
the Pages section? It looks like there used to be a link but it no
longer works. (and there's a questionable file under the files
section) If development continues along and we get to a point where
it's playable are we sticking to the "GalaxyMage Redux" name?

As far as the factions, I like some of them, but I remember I had some issues with some stuff, especially the stories back a while, I'll try and remember...
Either way, feel free to add a page for it, and to change it however you wish - I don't think anyone at this point has really been thinking about that much - so if you would like to then great :)

of the owners clear out the bad page link as well as the porn spam in
files?

IMHO, documents like these should go on the wiki. That way everything
is all in one place, and there is version control so one can quickly
see exactly what has been changed, etc, etc..

Like RB said, not everyone was satisfied with Brandon's vision. If you
were digging through this list, you might have come across discussions
regarding lore. Perhaps conclusions there are a good starting point
for further revisions. Of course, since you are apparently
volunteering to work on this aspect, we welcome your own ideas as
well. =)
One thing we should keep in mind as we develop is that the game itself
should be flexible enough so that new separate settings can be added.
These settings could even have variations on the gameplay itself.
Think FFT vs. Bahamut Lagoon. In FFT each character fights on the one
battle map, however in BL each character on the battle map is actually
a group which when attacking or attacked actually conducts combat in
FF style battle mode (each character generally only gets one attack
though). I think this sort of abstraction *is* do-able without a lot
of pain and confusion.

Actually.. Still waiting on the Google Code page updates that we
discussed a while ago. =)

doc and begin tweaking the lore based on past discussions and any
other thoughts that make sense.

That would be RB[0]. He probably just forgot. Still, it's long overdue.
