D'oh.  So much for suggesting "Use the shuttle to look for Hensen."

"It's not like we can use our magic U.E.F. secure radios that every U.E.F. civilian has, and keeps a secret, to find that person, Captain. We'd probably have to think of a more complex plan."
(She's kidding in the first part)

And Hensen is(was?) the Security Officer. Basically in charge of anything related with combat/tactics, whether via ships or via soldiers.

EDIT: I've decided to lock this post and make a new one. Going to wait a bit to do it, though. In case anyone thinks otherwise.
Reasoning for this is that it'd be pretty hard to follow for anyone new, and a new organized thread (with a summary of events) would help a lot.
This is an edit instead of a new post to prevent unneeded bumping.

Oookay, so:
After accidently wiping the WIP new post, I realized that I've strayed too far from the original goal for Galaxy Rise. I want(ed) it to be a primarily strategy game, with some personal elements in it.
That goal faltered a bit near the end, and then I wiped it completely with the revival.

So, my (suggestion/plan) is that I'll make a new topic, but start it more tradionally - create a character, maybe choose your ship/crew/original mission, then do the regular "command forces to save the galaxy" thing. I'd definitely still keep Hensen/Lip/Donnely, though; since those characters were more or less my first attempt at real characters instead of the "You tell him to do this, he says okay" method I use(d) way too often.
Basically: New thread where you create a new character/ship/etc., but keep the original bridge crew. New thread will then be focused more on the strategy element. (and revival will be discarded)

I'll probably do this either later today or tomorrow. I still like the idea of a SG in space, though. If I ever am 100% certain I can manage two games at once (read: never), maybe I'll revisit this concept.

Maybe there should be some options as to who should be your officers? For a security officer, one candidate could be better at leading and another candidate could be better at training and so forth.
