Week off (UPDATE LIAM)

  • Character concept sketches (sketchbooks?)
  • I'll work on timeline.
  • Collate research together for print and doc.
P.S. Craig likes the combat idea.

  • Magic defenders getting a large energy boost from defending the spires and Soldier attackers can use air support such as bombing runs (which is absorbed by the spire shield).
  • Magic defenders will loose the energy boost if away from spires (e.g. in ParaDM territory) but the soldier defenders can't use air support (collateral damage negates usage).
Force fields use reverse kinetic energy (this allows slow objects to pass through but fast objects to reflect).

Concept art doodle book

We should get a 'doodle and ideas' sketch book for random ideas we get such as quick armour/clothes designs or weapon ideas. Just saying...

Also comment on some stuff will you Liam.

Presentation #1 over

Craig: Believes that 3 sketchbooks each is good IF we can get it done. We SHOULD do 3 sketchbooks = professional.

Negatives: Time scale on presentation.

Positives: I know what I'm doing, apparently.

Story (REQUIRES UPDATE)

Trinity want to harvest the resources buried within Paradiso, however this destabilizes the balance of nature by removing the energy source that the plants use to grow which also can be safely harnessed by Dynasty. The ParaDM also wants to use the resources that are stored within Paradiso, however to act as an energy source for cities and other urban territory unlike Trinity who want to use the energy as part of a super weapon. Dynasty want to keep the energy sacred and protected from the other two factions.
The story is focused on the Dynasty elite squad and Sierra Niner of the ParaDM, and about Trinity who manipulate both factions into a war so they can use the Paradisian energy.
