Are you referring to the images in
this thread? The greyed and warped buildings and terrain was part of a new theater me and the staff called "Afterboom". It played a huge role in one of TI's original story plots, but because it was too far out there and required a lot more work than what we originally intended at that time (This was planned almost 2 years ago) we decided to scrap the Afterboom idea and storyline and went for a different one instead. I prefer TI's direction now, but the Afterboom theater was certainly one of the most original ideas in any mod.
