The Return of Gwynn Ap Nudd...
Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 2:11 am
It's been four years since I've been around what is now called GateWars. It's changed so much I didn't even think this was the right place but when I tried to register and it told me my e-mail address was already in use, I figured I must be in the right place. Either that or someone used my e-mail address with my knowledge. First explanation is more probable.
So much has changed, namely the UI. Where'd all the pictures go? I'm assuming it had something to do with copyright? Before I left (back in '07), the devs were creating an actual diallable stargate. I'm assuming that got cancelled, because it's not part of the game now. There was also talk of implementing the Ori, and the Wriath too I believe, which was cause for panic - the SG1 episode where the SGC and allies stood their ground against the Ori motherships - and had their behinds handed to them severely - had only recently aired on TV. I'm guessing that didn't happen either.
I don't know if anyone still playing will remember me. I had created a small alliance (NIPA I think it was called - can't for the life of me remember what it stood for) of predominantly Asgard that had a strict 'no undue offensive action' policy. Our role was to be galactic peacekeppers and protectors of those who asked for it, with the exception of Goa'uld. We would never attack them (unless it was demanded of us due to our treaties) but we would never help them. However at the time we were simply building our forces and posturing, as players were unable to attack each other at that stage, the game hadn't even been finished.
I posted this to say 'Hi' to those who still play, who may remember me. Now that Gwynn Ap Nudd is back, I intend to explore this galaxy and learn what I can. If you notice that spies belonging to me have scouted your planets, do not worry. My ship will not arrive in orbit and lay waste to your world(s), my troops will not gate to your worlds and sieze them from you. If my capital ship is indeed above your world(s) and my troops are standing beside yours it because you have requested them to be there, to assist in your defense (if that can be done at all, I'm looking in to it).
If anyone is interested in what my alliance could be, feel free to PM me here or in game (in game is easier, I'll be on there more often). Failing that, if any alliance is willing to accept an eccentric renegade Asgard into their midst, send me a PM with an invitation and a short spiel on why I should join you... I'm nothing special but entering an alliance is a personal thing for me, I need to know if I'm going to fit in. For those thinking now that they know my name, they can strike at me, to them I say
, I can't stop you but you will be on my list. I may be a peaceful renegade Asgard but if you 
, I will be forced to 
.
Good to be back!
