I'm baised towards being the lifecrafter/shaper. Just because I like controling huge unstopable armies and a slight god complex. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

I like to see the gam finshed. The side you play for beats the enemy outright not pushs them to some remote corner, turns back the enemy and gives your side a second chance. One thing in game play I like to see is the abilty to release a creation instead of asorbing it. Said creation would likely go rouge and would attack anything its path includeing you. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

well keep in mind in the shaper endings you still need to take the Ashen iles. Mabey if you play the part of the rebels your job is to regain a foothold on the main land. I think however a Travokite ending is most likely. Though I pefer the shaper ending just becuase I like to go in and conquer something.

Drakons let fighting influence everything in their lives. Everything they make or do is either for battle or at the very least with war in mind. This is unchangeing never once have they changed their main battle stragety which is to make stronger drakons. Which is good when their are wars to fight but what about when the wars are over? If Drakons where to completely wipe out humanity would they ever stop fighting. I know humans fight a lot but its not constant. I would even argue to say Serviles are superiour because they are far adaptable. They learned how to exist out side their orginal fuction which was to serve humanity. Yet Drakons have yet to set one foot away from their orignal funcition which is to wage war. Until I see a large number of drakons doing something withour war in mind I convinced they are inferior. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

drakons are very good fighters and their very intellegent to those ends but not much else.The only incident I know of a drakon useing something other the brute force is when Ghaldring tricks that upstart into fighting you. Humans on the other hand while not as good at fighting are decent at it. As they are a good at a lot of other things. Humans are adapters they are what the need to be when they need to be. Drakons are fighters when the need fight, make peace, farm, sail, trade, engage ind diplomacy, and craft items. Every thing that you pc observes them do observes their single minded focus on this. edit: simply put I base supreiorty on adabtily and from what I have obsevered from drakons in the game humans appear to be far more adaptable [ Thursday, March 22, 2007 20:43: Message edited by: Lord Safey ] -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

Drakons in general are killing machines. Their goals reflect this. The geneforge in 2 and 3 where design for them and them alone. In geneforge 3 the gazer at the microscopes said that the Drakons want most of the changes going towards upgrading the drakons. Not into developing canisters or new creations. What ever it creativity and intelligence they have it’s at making themselves more able at killing. True due to nature of reproduction you come across a few that aren't but the threat of genocide prevent most from following that. The serviles where design to be obedient and the only ones that aren't descendents of Sucia Island. The reason they aren't obedient was that those that varied from the norm had no reason or force to purge them. So genetic variants that where more independent survived because they where in a situation where they need to be independent over those who where more prone to be dependent on the shapers where at disadvantage and their power waned. Till eventually you got the serviles we have now. Keep in mind it took hundreds of years of breeding on their own to change that. Humans are survivors when it takes little effort to survive our motives greatly vary. The human part of the rebellion the individuals had many reason for joining but after joining they fought for survival. The shapers fought the rebellion for survival. Is it possible for drakons to change their nature, give centuries it may be possible. Drakons are better fighters but humans are better survivors and this is what makes humans superior -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

quote:True humans are not perfect but compared to the drakons they get along extremly well. I have yet to speak with a non drakon who said something postive about their interworkings. Yet I meet lots of people who give the shapers high praise. A lite match is cold compared too a rageing forest fire. quote:Their arrogance is what makes them weak. Arrogance has crushed might empires and turn the tide against overwhemling odds. Thats why the rebellion had so much initial success. Though the shapers learned from the arrogance I have yet to see drakons learn from theirs. The wiser drakons are just merely over confident. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

Take a look at ants and praying mantis. A praying mantis is one tough bug I have seen pictures of it killing small birds. One ant is weaker and possibly stuiped. The problem for the praying mantis is ants are a dime a thousand. They praying mantis may kill hundreds of ants before its dies but it still dies. The thing is humans work better in groups. Drakons mentality makes working with outsiders even though they be allies trouble some. Your PC has to kill a drakon to stop a civil war among the rebellion. The shapers may have difference in opinions among each other and have one or two wackos on the edge of the empire. Its not anywhere near the level of the rebellion. Quite simply the shapers don't need to be strong enough to stop the rebillion the rebellion will destroy it self. Humans are superiour to drakons because we get a long with each other . -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

Not really the drakons are far worse then the shapers were. They see them selfs as ruleing the world talking to any drayk, servile, any seintient no drakon creature, that lives in driect contact with drakons. Shapers are trying to restore order, In the rebillion all I see is greedy tempts for power, political struggles, and madness. Do you honestly think they will stop with the Unbound. When ever the shapers created something like that it was by accident and they always try to quartine it or destroy it. The Drakons are determine to either rule the whole of earth or destroy it. Guess what made idea they will come up with next -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

The geneforge series has potential for one more game and (prehaps 2) I feel it should come to a close with in the next game. I would like to see a new game Jeff is very good at comeing up with good ideas. One thing I like to see (if its possible) would the PC to be a dragon/dragon like creature. An a possible alterntive to a completly new game is for Jeff is to make a game that happens in the geneforge world, but before Geneforge 1. Simlar world completly different story. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

Shapers where are not that repressive. As long as you don't try to pratice magic without their say so and give them a grudeing amount of respect the will pretty much leave you a lone that even goes for serviles although beate to a much lesser extent. I beleive the pre war shaper goverment is more like European union. The have a procudure for everything and if you don't respect that you get some absurd taxs/fines. The japaness and the germans didn't leave people alone. Read up on the rape of manchuria and the holocost. Nazi concentration camps kill 1 out of 5 prisoners if the head warren was in a bad mood and the guards were allowed to beat up random prisoners. The pre war shapers were never that bad. I never played Geneforge 4 so I can't say what desperation drove them too. The drakon allaince is trying to set up their own empire, which war world 2 resitance wanted that. The minor WW 2 faction that comes to mind is the middle eastern tribes but they have a lot of quailties simlar to drakons anyways. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

Those humans who join the rebels must be deluded. Geneforge drakons don't care about each other much less those who the consider lesser beings and are constly ploting each others demise even though they are allegadly part of the same army. To be someone they considered insinifcant and join would be out of an act of desperation or deluded that they offer freedom. As much as one can critize the shapers if you follow their rules they treat you well even if you don't paticulary like them. Internal politics for shapers is even easier being on the wrong side of a political battle among shapers means ending up on the wrong side the world. Being on the wrong side of a political battle among the rebellion means being on the wrong side of a sword. The shapers don't need to destroy the rebillion they don't need to, the rebellion will do that for them.

I wouldn't corrupt the minds of childrend or sell drugs. I won't neccarly ally my self with nazi germany buy I would make some efforts to pit japan and germany against each other. I understand that an some of that activity might occur and to some degree is needed but one needs to keep in mind of the long term aftermath of such tatics when you win the war. I also will smack the person who said they would be complacent to the invadeing force. Also I think it would be very hard logistically for Japan to invade America. Keep in mind that we out number them they are thousands of miles from their homeland makeing a logstical nightmare. Any succesful invasion of America will be less of army and more of a immigration. Keep the indians didn't loose America in one fell swoop they lost it due to a century of slow immigration with sporatic wars. Next time America changes hands I beleive it will be much in the same way.

you should have made this a poll. I would join the shapers simply becuase their more stable. I don't like the idea of constanly checking to make sure my freinds are my freinds and my enemies are my enemies. That may be my weaknes against that kind of internal strife/infilitration. I choose to compenstate by join an orgnization that is less likely to betray me. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

If your empire was effetive as you say it was then you could beat the shapers and rebels with in a a couple decades. With out war you have no reason to award people for canisters. You simply would not want to make your empire to effetive. Another major problem I see you haveing is a canister lab/factory. Pure steel seems really hard to to make and would require much protection against theives and Imagine the canisters them selfs are hard to make. The smiths require to make pure steel as well as the canister crafters are very skill and rare. You have to treat them very well (high pay in gold and possibly the occosinal canister)for them to stay espically if they don't agree with your idea. If you keep them in your service by force you find that your puresteel is produce more slowly and isn't as pure. Your canisters would have subtle flaws in them in wouldn't be made as fast. My question is how would get the skilled craftsmen need to make canisters into your service and how would keep them in your service and keep them happy? -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |

ET: Thats the point your empire wouldn't last. The world you would create would exist in eternal warfare either your empire is fighting external wars with the rebels, shapers, possibly event he sholia if you can gain a foothold on their land or should peace time come your empire will splinter into civil war. You can never ever have peace. Hope you like war. -------------------- A rock has weight whether you admit it or not Posts: 479 | Registered: Wednesday, July 12 2006 07:00 |
