Escape from Earth Scenario

Postby tot_kto_v_bredu » Wed Apr 28, 2010 6:41 pm

Always liked this scenario.
Did Richard draw sect pictures by himself?

It was also my first encounter of Brother Battle sect from which I started looking for more information about the FS Universe itself.

Anyone knows where Richard Wein is right now and what he is doing?

There's a page on the Nova site about Escape From Earth, in case you haven't seen it before. I don't know much else about the scenario itself, though.

You can try contacting Richard through that email address on the front page of the Nova site, but I don't know if it's still valid.

Hi. It's me, Richard Wein. I received an email from "Lap", and that prompted me to come and have a look at the forum, for nostalgia's sake. I haven't thought about EFS for years.

Tot, in answer to your question, the sect symbols are standard from Fading Suns. I think I found some graphics files on the web, but had to modify them a bit to fit the game. If you're referring to the extra portraits, those were included in the original game, but not used. By the way, I hope your name isn't literally true! :wink:

Hi Richard!
I'd like to personally thank you for that Scenario. Was very interesting to play it. Although the thing with Scepters to be captured on Byz 2 makes game too easy to win = all I need to do is to get 1 spy at Byz and capture 1 Scepter.

Oh, I get that you know russian :) No, my name is not literally true :)

Both my scenarios were designed purely for multiplayer games. I never expected anyone to play them solo!

I used to speak Russian moderately well, but I've forgotten most of what I once knew. I had to look up "bred" in a dictionary.

what would be the proper translation of my nick into english: "delirious", "the_delirious_one" or "the_one_in_delirium"?

P.S. Sorry, I didn't read carefully, and didn't notice that you gave "delirious" as an option too. I was just choosing between "the_delirious_one" and "the_one_in_delirium".

"Delirious" is also correct, and is probably the best of the three in this context. But it's a stylistic choice, and some might prefer "the_delirious_one". "The_delirious_one" sounds more like a title, while "delirious" sounds more like a description. "Delirious" is an adjective, and can't be used as a common noun. But adjectives are sometimes used as nicknames.

I just added a P.S. to my last post, but accidentally replaced the old post instead of adding to it. Sorry for any confusion. :oops:

No problem. I actually like "the_delirious_one" more than just "delirious" and your explanation about title vs description gave me more support in choosing it.

Привет.

Я хотел вчера печатать по-русски, но у меня нет русской клавиатуры (даже виртуальной). А я сейчас нашёл клавиатуру на веб-странице: http://winrus.com/screen_e.htm
К сожалению мне очень медленно печатать по-русски!

I was trying to say that I haven't got a Russian on-screen keyboard installed on my computer, but I found a web page that lets me type in Russian using a keyboard on the web page. That's what I used for my last post. I typed my message on that web page, then copied it to the forum page.

I have Windows Vista Home, but it seems I need a "Language Interface Pack (LIP)" in order to type in another language.

usually the russian language can be just added in "regional standards" "keyboard" section.
