[WIP] Comedy Mod

Beery · 04-28-07, 12:26 PM

I'm considering making a comedy mod. This would be fantasy in nature, with humorous notes such as the BernardNote mod and with undeveloped features such as the hula girls, mermaids and The Flying Dutchman making appearances. This mod won't be immediately apparent, but comic touches will appear in the game from time to time as a campaign is played.

What I'd like is the following to start with:

The Flying Dutchman sailing throughout the pacific from his historical base in Java.

Hula girls dancing in port and on islands.

Mermaid encounters near (or on) small islands.

The captain's notepad in every boat featuring the captain's complaints about the crew.

A map detailing all the locations where these things can be seen.

My first thought was "WHAT!!" not super guns and nuke torpedoes again, then I read it and yes it looks like a fun thing, after all it's only a game. (As I tell myself everytime England plays cricket

)

Well, at least we won the Ashes the last time we played at home for them. I just wish I could have seen it live. America is a fine place to live, but you can't get live test matches on TV here so, in that sense at least, it really is a desperately uncivilized country. It's incredible to think that the first international cricket match (in fact the first international sporting contest of any kind in the modern era) was between the US and Canada and took place on Long Island - I mean you'd think that they'd have some reverence for their place in cricket's history.

I spotted the Dutchman off the coast of Honshu once so perhaps the devs beat you to it

Really? Hmmmm. I'll have to take a look in the campaign files for that.

How about two 1600s pirate ships lining up broadside and blasting eachother with cannons?

I must say I would love to cruise by some mermaids! Nobody will believe us back home though...

Found the Flying Dutchman. She's in the Jap Harbor Traffic file. Not sure what the Flying Dutchman is doing off the coast of Japan when historically she's supposed to sail between Java and Holland via the Cape of Good Hope - artistic license I suppose.

Oh! I would like that!

COOL!

Beery · 04-28-07, 10:04 PM

I've tracked The Flying Dutchman down a bit more. The ship can be found around the island of Batan, north of the Philippines and south of Taiwan.

Anyone got a screen shot of it?
