On a side note, along the smae lines you could name it "Prohibition".

Absolutely Airtight :lol: - (against Cease&Desist orders ;))
- heh, had to :P



aaanyway, moving away from the 'AApunlolz' theme:

Dominate or Die? (although DD --> no doubt never-ending 'bewbies!!1!' jokes :S)

Leader of Legend (-=LL=-, emphasising the perspective of the commander)
and/or "-Legions


I'll add more if i think of some, I really need to sleep :?

The name blows for reasons other than taste; a 4 syllable name that lacks an abbreviation is a marketing and communication disaster. AA works because it's abbreviated to, well, AA. Abolition can't be abbreviated and is too long to conveniently say, think, or write quickly.
It can!

We play... "A"!

I guess most non-english people would have no idea have no idea how to spell the new name, so it'll be harder to find the download and stuff..

Abolition, regardless of its historical context, means the state of something being abolished, or overthrown. And there's a reason I chose this name. Shh. Forboding, if you would be so clever as to actually post the wikipedia listing for "Abolition" rather than "Abolitionism"... :roll:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abolition

Its short-form shall be "AS"... Abolition: Spring. Fixing the download link now.

Aw crap. I forgot to put the 2.23 link up on the "new" download page in the meantime. Geez I'm stupid...

As of "2.24", the mod will be officially renamed Abolition and will be version 1.0. And it's certainly easier for foreigners to spell than "Absolute Annihilation".

One of the reasons I had to change the name is because not only am I legally bound to move away from Total Annihilation copyrighted content, but I am also bound to move away from Total Annihilation's lore, its universe. In other words, I need a new backstory.

I can, uhh... maybe write you a new story line. If you want comedy, you'll need to ask Zoombie - my humour is of the obscure variety.

I even think he and I might be able to work together - I assume you want some hard but clear work, and yet have it be interesting.

I assume you can do the 'clear' bit cause I'm not very clear. Or very...spelling.

Well, eh... I sorta already have the story planned. And it's not really all that elaborate. Maybe at some point when I have a draft and a version that's actually... like... my end-goal, you could add to it. But you'd probably be a geriatric by then.
