Finally! Here is another chapter. Chapter 4 Jordan and Owen woke early and prepared to leave Twilight Station. They had seen the local schedule of shipping and traffic, and noticed the large number of ships leaving during the day. With illegal trade a problem in Twlight Station, more ships were scanned and watched the days the freight convoys left the station. Leaving the station before traffic was at

Chapter 4 is getting close to done. I should have it up by tomorrow. Who is your favorite character in entire series so far?
[quote]I might still buy the game but not until I see it for less than 30 bucks.[/quote] Which will be a LONG time.
I never was into Starcraft, but I've taken a look at it, and from a non-fanboy perspective, it looks like any other conventional RTS on the market. Typical base building, fast gameplay, three very different factions, and the like. Plus, Blizzard divided the game into three parts to make more money, and they've set the price at 60 bucks (Activision/Infinity Ward really started a bad trend setting COD:MW2 at $60) Bottom line, I won't be buying it. I'd rather play RTS games that are more
[quote]I'm so getting this on a shirt.[/quote] Yeah, why would you have a plutonium powered Delorean when you can have a phone booth to travel time in? At least the phone booth doesn't need radioactive metal.
[quote]Hitler liked Islam for its blind obedience feature. One of the minds behind the Holocaust was a Muslim friend of Hitler's, the "Grand Mufti" of Jerusalem, uncle and mentor of Yasser "Arafat". And no, I am not joking. [/quote] I read about that. Not only did Hitler create the Holocaust, he essentially started the Muslim-Jewish conflict. Before WWII, Muslims generally put up with Jews.
[quote]BTW, have you ever thought of a name for the whole series? I don't really think the Altaria's Last Stand series really suits it.[/quote] I generally refer it as the Jordan Locke series. Altaria's Last Stand is kind of the oddball of the three stories. Not only is it extremely short compared to Jordan's Revenge, it's told from behind Jim Ebyon's perspective. Jim was originally intended to be the main character, but it switched over to Jordan because it would make for a better st
[quote]BTW, I know you're continuing the sequel... but whatever happened to Origins?[/quote] I wanted to focus on the sequel. I have several half written Origins stories going, so when I finish them I'll post them. Redemption, Resurrection, Retribution has another chapter up.
New chapter for you guys. About damn time, huh?[e digicons]:)[/e] Chapter 3 Altos’ face appeared on the screen. “This is Commodore Carniss. Can I help you?” “Yes,” said Owen, “But first I’d like you to secure your channel to prevent eavesdropping.” “It already is,” said Altos. “I noticed that you sent your signal directly to me instead of connecting through a secretary. Why?” Jordan
The Muslim group warned that Trey Parker and Matt Stone would face "violent retribution", and printed the address of their California studio for Muslims to see. Even if they don't do it themselves, they can still arrested for providing the address. I think that falls under the category of "conspiracy to commit murder". As for the other major discussion, Christianity is definetely not a poster child of good religion. Christians have commited many, many horrible acts, ranging
Thanks for the feedback. In my opinion, the world is really headed for a shitstorm between the Western and Muslim worlds. The West's face of tolerance is starting to break. People are showing backbone by not bowing down to extremist groups by banning Muslim things like face veils. If these laws pass, we'll be seeing cars burn in the street, and people decide that they have had enough of the shit of the Muslims, pull on ski masks, and grab guns and start attacking Muslims. I am in no w
Found some new bands myself, updated my list.
As you may have heard, part of South Park's newest episode has been censored because it talks about the Prophet Muhammed and shows him in a bear suit, joking about the fact that Muhammed can't be shown in a picture. Now Muslim groups are making threats to South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and Comedy Central caved in and censored part of the episode. Reading the story just pissed me off. Political Correctness (also known as double standards) has run amok. Why can Mus

[quote]Hail, Etrius. This was an entertaining read, and also gradually improving with every post. I wonder, have you considered to publish something like that in paper? Frankly, I spent this whole night enjoying the first two parts, and registered here with only purpose to say: THANK YOU! Such a talent shouldn't go unnoticed. Please keep up that awesome work. And I am going to check out the third part of your saga right away. [/quote] Thanks! [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I've hi
[quote]Well, most SciFi series that don't resort to cheap broken plastic noses and a can of paint to create an alien are above average, but firefly was really good.[/quote] Star Trek The Next Generation was the worst. All the "aliens" looked like humans with minor physical differences.[e digicons];P[/e]
Hmmmm. It seems Eidolon has left us. It's a bummer to see this story fall flat.

Banned because it's Easter. On this day, Christ rose from the dead, probably flipping off the Romans as he went up to heaven. Religion hasn't been more violent until modern times.
2010 has been the year of earthquakes so far! Pretty crazy! Of course, all the doomsday/2012 people are saying that this is the beginning of the end, but there is a possilbe explanation. This decade hasn't seen much earthquake activity, and the ones that have occured have been really nasty. All that built up energy in the tectonic plates has to go somewhere eventually.
For those of you who didn't click on the link above because you didn't know what it was, it leads to the Redemption, Resurrection, Retribution
Chapter 2 Earth , thought Jordan. He felt a tear form in his eye, and quickly wiped it away. It had been close to two years since he had been near the planet, not counting the time when he was trapped outside when the great Earth Shield was activated. It’s so close, yet I still can’t set my feet on my surface . Still, there was much to do
They say the story is really bad. Square Enix pushed for that part. Judging by Supcom2, the Japanese should really stay out of the Western RTS market and focus on making RPGs and they other games they specialize in.
Apologies for the delay, I've been a bit busy. The chapters themselves are a lot longer than the ones in Jordan's Revenge, too.
I think people could make graphical mods that make the units less cartoony. And you can mod in more units. And hopefully, you can mod so you can have adjacency bonuses and assists, if the engines doesnt have it hardcoded. Then again, I've heard it's tough to mod with Steam.
