Is anyone making a UIT-version of the backstory?

If not, I'd like to take a shot at it.

Like with most VO content, us UIT have gotten the short end of the stick in the backstory as well, being protrayed as the wishy-washy side-effect of the Itani-Serco conflict.

Of course, we ARE wishy-washy, it's what makes being an UIT fun. I can Ross Perot my way throughout the conflict with gusto and panache; however, I'd really like to know more about how the people broke into the Corps, from where and how did the Territories expand into their current incarnation, and more about the Rogue Queen Incident. In other words, I'm interested in the happenings with the UIT after their exodus from Sercosercoland.

So if any of the oldies has any kind of such info that he could share (or even better, the Devs), I'd appreciate it. I've "mined" as much as I could from the loadscreens and the backstory already, BTW. I could wing it, but would rather have more concrete info if possible.

I thought Incarnate was working on a *corporations* back story, some of it has been outlined in the wiki (the corvus stuff), but I guess like CP's story, I wouldnt mind seeing a player's take on the history, go for it.

If senior year doesn't prove to be too much of a hassle, I'll help out. Should help with my creative writing course and all ;)

Heh - "Ross Perot my way through it..." Make sure you use lotsa charts. And say "see here" a lot.

You should tell it as if it were minutes from corporate board meetings.

Make sure you follow the Wiki bits on corporations:

It gives quick background for most corps of UIT. Also, I would probably ask what devs think of this, given that this could come in conflict with whatever they might have planned out on this.

Any devs could offer insights on this?
