OK we've had several ideas, the most popular one being "What CNC3 should've been" - or "Scrinvasion", as others have called it. We'll decide on a better name later OK wink1.gif

It can be based off of things talked about on the Petroglyph forums.
If you didn't know, most of the ex-Westwood staff are now working in Petroglyph, including the ones who made Tiberian Sun.
There is awesome info here on the intentions of TS, before EA butted in, including some plans for CABAL and the Scrin. There were planned something like 2-3 expansion packs planned, that were cast aside for the crappy RA2 folly...
The information they gave is enough for a guideline, but there's more than enough gaps in to fill in with our own creativity.

Or it might be good have something entirely new and unique, but it'll be a lot more tedious to plan since there's no real guidelines, and anything is open game.
Not only that, but most 'unique' ideas are sometimes more cliche than ones that are borrowed from elsewhere - If our story is going to have an evil dictator plot world domination, we may as well use the Tiberian Universe anywho wink1.gif

Another idea is to have a star wars mod, but ehhh....

When I get a clear idea on what the theme should be, we'll proceed with the more detailed planning, like campaigns and unit concepts and stuff -
Right now there's a great deal of ideas already planned for the "scrinvasion" theme, so that's what I'm leaning toward.

But I want to hear what everyone else thinks. It is, after all, a community project wink.gif

i still say Scrin vs. scrin sounds like UAW, although i suppose a scrin rebellion could replace the token Nod rebellion.
