Plan and Direction - 1010todd/Galactic-War GitHub Wiki

In the current stage of the plugin the main focus will be implementing fractions that exist in the data to the map and other necessary fraction as required for a storyline.

The overall campaign will be split into two primary part: Secondary campaigns and the main campaign. The Secondary campaign is where the player will get to participate in conflict in the sector of the galaxy which will build up to the main campaign. Secondary campaign will not necessary wait for the player, events in each may happen in parallel as player plays one of the secondary campaign. Though, balancing the benefits of each campaign might be difficult due to different tech advancement of each race and the player likely having access to Tier 2 tech when they discover the galaxy.

Current list of planned secondary campaign is:

-Erader Civil War

-Geeva-Kroom War

-Dels: Tehru Invasion

-Qoro Unification/War

The main campaign will start after or in the middle of secondary campaign with invasion of the Ultaka being the main driver of the campaign. Ideally the player should know a Tier 3+ fraction well enough to buy their ships by the time invasion start, if not the campaign might be too difficult as the primary enemy will be using Tier 3 ships and even stronger weapons. With the current rough plan player might see a very rapid advancement between the more advanced fractions of the galaxy and the invader as there will be an arms race between them.

To lower the gap between the secondary campaign and the main campaign, the secondary campaign might be split into two primary halves; First being the normal campaign and second half involving more advanced fraction if the campaign failed to include one. This is to allow the player to access more advanced technology to deal with the Ultaka(Tier 3 to at least Tier 6). With the current assets, the route will end up either siding with Zis or Taroun which are currently the most advanced.
