Funny. I feel kinda foolish for not considering actual terrorist ID's until you just mentioned it. What a perfectly excellent suggestion:)
I'm still thinking though that it's probably best to keep this thing off the server until .86 goes live & use the 'tween time to build up the faction specifics within the basic story line so that I can try to explalin what they're all about through the thoughts & actions of the characters involved in lieu of a standard faction write up. Besides, I can always do that after I do a live test run on server.
I had this grandiose, drawn out plan for gradually unveiling all the details, eventually ending the story with the upcoming Gaian slaughter when the Gauls invade Lewis & then picking a survivor to play as...but as I try to fit all the things I need & still keep to the format of telling a story through short individual moments of the characters lives, I realize I need to speed everything up 100% & just get on with it and finally get this stuff outta my head & into the open.
