[TomasRiker]

[Roxis231]

When will you be asking for names for the galls?

You will need a more pirate-y nickname, this mod deserves it. Also, there will be only a limited number of soldiers, so your friend needs to apply personally, I cannot accept multiple requests from the same person, that would be unfair to others.

When will you be asking for names for the galls?

I will start accepting requests after the first episode (installation tutorial + settings) is published. That should be in about 3-4 weeks I think. In the meantime, think of a nice piratey name ;-)

[Dioxine]

I'd suggest a bit more of 'space pirate', techno-style music in addition to those.

If I'm asked about inspirational music (not neccessarily the best choices for soundrack...), I can name a few author's choices...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OhO-uikL1s&list=PL37390DB39985A5A3&index=8 (the best interception music ever )

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laFq1JmM6wk

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTENoLk7cUo&list=PLWnVxuqvY7JhIStJuEWmAAprHwcxAJl8T

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1NYhbiiiFw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1bzLapJwN4&index=8&list=PL5MT_bRH2m80P7ythfHQZJar0pN4IP4Rd and yeah, shanties too

[Meridian]

Well, they are indeed very nice, but only if I played for myself.

I cannot use them for YT videos because:
- they are copyrighted (at least 3 of above)
- they have vocals (at least 2 of above)

For copyrighted music I would get "copyright notices" at best or get my channel closed and deleted at worst.
And the songs with vocals would not go well as background for commentary.

PS: hej do zagli chlopcy wraz hej tam ster lewo na burt widmo smierci bliskie bylo lecz laskawy byl nam Bog... ;-)

[Dioxine]

Yeah I am aware they're no good for LP, just an inspiration maybe

[Boltgun]

I'm using these ones so it really sounds like a sequel to UFO/TFTD.

Also requesting naming once it starts!
