Reading now... oh God, it's so tastyyyyyy...
I like it! Is there more to it?
>>e following presents a condensed history of the known Galaxy, as pieced together by the monks of Itan.<<

Very, very awsome in my opinion. Just 2 questions:
1) Why don't itani players get access to the force shield
2) Where do the bots come in?

Bots will be described in an addendum, since that's sort of separate from the development of the nations (which was all the Chronicles was supposed to describe).
As far as shields, no one is a member of the Order yet. Such things would require considerable advancement and training of the character. And umm, also us adding that gameplay.

Man oh man, raw awesomeness.
A few questions though:
1) Both the Itani and Serco apparently command significant capital ship assests. In game, where are they?
2) Why do the Serco and Itani use the same ships? The story makes it seem as though their ship development has been wildly divergent up until just recently. Or are most sides using TPG-constructed designs at the moment?
3) Where do the names Serco and Itani come from, exactly?
4) Who currently occupies the Triumvirateship and the Abbies? Would the Abbot of Divinia now be the eldest of the three Abbots?
5) I assume Corvus will be covered in the addendum?
Still, though, I can now confidently say:
GLORY TO THE DOMINION FOREVERRRRRR

1) Future update, expect it post-release
2) The story was writen back the Guild had more funding, dont worry, expect stuff in the future.
3) Does it really matter? It's just the names the 2 sides picked because they had to call themselves something

Glory to the dominion, may she wreak havoc over her cowardly foe!
D'you hear that, you weak-kneed Itani wobblers! You unaugmented, slow-witted little, tiny men, hiding in your icy, isolated worldlets! You will be made to cower before us as you did in days of legend!
/me goes to listen to some Rammstein

Yet more questions, because I'm the inquisitive type and I want to put together a fiction FAQ:
1) What language does humanity speak? I'm assuming it's English, but there are differences beteen Itani and Sercan... like?...
2) ... er, that's all I can think of for now, but expect more.

"Condensed"? I'd hate to see the uncondensed version.
I'd LOVE to see it :D
I have two words for you.

Wow, thats some mighty fine reading I have ahead of me :-)
Maybe in the future if we get ingame NPC's they could refer to events in the chronicles, would be a shame if this info was only available on the website and not in the game itself as well :-)

Incarnate said that the unabridged version is something like 54 pages in Word.
could you please consider to add a next (maybe even previous) page link at the end of every subpage (aka section xx)
So I dont have to scroll up and press the link in the sidebar. (I know im lazy, so sue me :D)

Man, and to think I kept choosing the dark gray color scheme as an aesthetic choice..
Now I want the storyline-driven missions...
