I've been wanting to make an RTS based on 'Outlandish Worlds' setting. It would be set in Arkenthrall in the setting's current day, the player taking the role of a commander for one the 3 superpowers, in their bid for control of Arkenthrall. One of the most unique triat I've thought of is that the game will have a morality system where, through his or her in-game actions, the player character can embody thier chosen faction at it's best, worst, or somewhere in between.

Hey CastleGreifenghast, here is a scenario you might find interestingΒ althistory.wikia.com/wiki/Clicβ¦

May I suggest other factions for your fantasy setting?
One would be the Theocracy, ruled by a Crystal Dragon Jesus religion and the nation of clerics, divine magic and paladin and templar warriors.
Another would be a Sword and Sandal, greco-roman-esque nation of Amazons, Centaurs, Cyclopes, and other stuff from classical mythology.
And a third would be the Sword and Sorcery realm of barbarian tribes.

Sorry I have taken ages to respond to this, I missed it somehow.
The Sirenii Portectorates are essentially a theocracy, given that the sirens hold that they are literally descended from the gods. You do get paladin and Templar types running around, but given that the dieties they worship are basically lovecraftian horrors masquerading as Greco-Roman gods, they are not terribly nice chaps.
I am trying to avoid havingΒ different levels of tech/development without any explanation-in realistic systems theΒ less advanced powers tend to be crumped. That being said various chimeran creatures that resemble the 'mix and match critters' of classical mythology do exist-they are literally chimeras in the modern, medical sense of the world, and have been created via magic by the Sorcerers' League for various (mostly military) purposes.
The Amazons, in this a wholly separate eusocial subspecies of humanity based off John Wyndham's 'Consider her ways', function as the conan-esque barbarian tribes of the setting, fighting against the Outlandish Empire. They have swords, and quite a bit of sorcerer, to help fight against His Dread Majesty's hordes.

You're making the Sirenii sound like the Deep Ones.
What about Centaurs, Satyrs, Cyclopes and the like?

That is entirely deliberate.
Centaurs and Satyrs created on an experiential basis by the Sorcerer's League-no cyclops as a discrete species.

I think you're still missing a few oneshots, like the World War I on the Moon and Mars, and the one with a red Britain arising in the late 20th century.

The delay in that is because I am currently in Scotland on Holiday, and do not have access to my desk-top. I will be back home tomorrow.Β

Gotcha. I just wanted to remind you in case you forgot.

Hey, glad you're on DA! I'm a fan of your work that I've read on AH.com.

Thanks! What works of mine have you seen so far?

Aside from the stuff you've posted on DA just now, I really like A Light In the Darkness, and your dark Discworld map is one of my favorite Oneshots of all time.Β

ALitD is probably going up here at some point. The Discworld map is going up tomorrow.Β

Thanks! RvboMally suggested it would get my works more exposure, and I blindly obeyed!

Blind obedience to my directives leads to prosperity.

I at least chose to be assimilated by the community before I met you.
