"soon[sup]tm[/sup]" is a bit... scary. 

"soon" trade marked? can you do that?

Since this seems to be resolved, and were talking about the menu more or less, what happened to the animated one with the exploding/shot Galaxy class? I forget what else was on there, but it was cool

Yeah, I still have 3.0pr, and it is an awesome galaxy, but I like FO's menu, because it is nothing like the stock one.  That one with the galaxy was layed out just like the stock menu.

hm, besides that a fleet of ships attacking a borg cube and an "okudagram" of the sovereign similar to stock armada 2. they have been removed with 3.0 as they become just plain ugly over the years in the end we decided to put our effort into the gaming content than the packaging. maybe one day the menu will get an overhaul but currently i am quite content with the more simple approach that just does what it should - to get you into the game

So we are going to have a switch in gears trying to get the campaign going? Hmmm... I got an idea or two... though it would be nice to have 3D scenes of conversations going on like little clips (Especially how my ideas include a lot of negotiations in one campaign).

I was thinking about having 3 seperate campaigns. Of course the later one will require those 'coming soon' races... but by then we should have them.

Campaign 1: The 2nd Dominion War

Races playable:
- Federation
- Klingon
- Dominion

Campaign 2: Rebuilding the Alliance

Races Playable:
- Federation
- Romulan
- Klingons

Campaign 3: 'Pest Control'

Races Playable:
- Federation
- Dominion
- Notexer
- Iconian

There are already plans for the campaigns in the FO storyline compiled by Dominus, but I don't know how up to date they are and open to change.

Yeah, I don't know how accurate those are too... I know Optec said that everything should be fairly consistent... but considering that the storyline is compiled out of about 5 years worth of information... . I'll try to get back to you on that

aye, the FO storyline will change a little, and we would like to use our story ourselves on day for a campaign, but there should be much space for newly developed scenarios, like alternative timelines or events from the past

Neato, and glad to hear that most information is accurate then
