[ QUOTE ] it specifically stated that this is an ancient race. as in, existed before humans.

I also don't see why aliens can't look like humans…
The brief said nothing about non humans for cgsociety. They were simply "ancients". http://www.gameartisans.org/dominancewar/2/readbrief/index.htm The briefs were very open.
unless you go for the Star Trek "we don't want/can't afford to make real alien species so we'll claim all races are decended from one ancient space faring race."
no i hope it sticks to sci fi... but like.. the ancients last time around were pretty 'fantasy' types? hehe, one of the only competitions i ever took serious part in! if school allows, i SO am gonna take part this time around too! winning's not the key... proving green's up top is... [ye ye. they both mean 'winning']...…
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Really going to try and participate this time. Also hoping that the criteria is actually maintained this time. Last time it seemed to go completely out of the window for most entrants and seemed almost pointless. Awesome works, but big clumpy meatheads as stealthy assassins? [/ QUOTE ] I remember why…
