Yeah, same here. Normally I would draw a bit slower. Must be one of those good days.

I'm probably getting to far into details but I wonder how Humanity is holding up, after Reaper's Crysis.
(It would be hell of the twist if in this version Earth was almost destroyed (during the battle) that it's almost impossible to live on the surfice. Kinda make sense, if presumembly Sword Fleet was using the biggest calliber of ammunitions (there was something mentioned about it in Codex), some of shots could missed, hitting the Earth, causing nuclear explosions.
I mean, It's rather ubeliveble for Earth not suffering cathastrophical concenquences of that battle.
But perhaps I'm just getting to nit-picky and dramatic.

It's late here, so it might go into the nightblogger rambling territory, be warned.
Yeah, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that the Alliance is hit hard by the Crisis. While it's possible to still continue to live on Earth, it will take a while until the planet is "rebuilt". That includes terraforming, fixing the infrastructure, etc. The thing is that there will be an influx of people migrating to other colonies that are still mostly intact from the Crisis. Such as Mindoir, Elysium, etc. I think. There will be also good chunk of people staying on Earth, either due to circumstances that they cannot move or they are just stubborn and wanted to rebuild the place. It's a bit like Europe in the WW2 aftermath. Europe is in shambles after the war, but they did what they could to rebuild their place. So there's a good chance that Earth is habitual, but barely. It would take like 10 years to clean up the rubble, even then it won't be good as Earth in the Pre-Crisis era.
The Alliance Government will refuse to move out of Earth though, due to trying to keep their morality up, since moving out of Earth is a sign of weakness in the eyes of the public. Although they would have to change their capital city somewhere else, since the original is being bombed the hardest from the last game. I'm still deciding which city would be the new capital at this time.
As for the Alliance themselves, Earth's weakness is a indication of the Alliance strength (read: Not too well.). They had to rely on the Council Government to get most of the funding and resources to rebuild their territories. Normally it will be alright, but the Council has changed and there's some unrest with the Alliance colonies, but that's another story.

Mmm, I like Your thoughts about this. ^^
As for Your decision as which capital city should beβ¦ Probably somewhere on the other side of the globe, when the battle happened. That would make sens ( I think ) since bombs coming from the ships would surley devastated the one side of Earth (read: the one where the battle was happen). But I'm not sure which continets could suffer, was it Asia, Europe, or were both north and south America?Β
Uhhh⦠It's late here too⦠Am I making any sense?

Makes sense, but as that other person said, most of Earth is being trashed, since there's a truck loads of Reapers flying about.
Hmm... I'll think about what city should be the next capital slowly, since there's a lot of chapters to go through, before it hits the "Alliance Autumn" arc.

Need an help with suggestions?

Maybe, once my mind is not blank at this time.

Honestly, the reapers are so plentiful, and each one is so powerful, that I doubt that many places were left without heavy damage.

Fair point.

Well, Arcturus station was officially "capital city" of both navy and government before the invasion. If next one will be back on Earth, then I would suggest Geneva (I doubt Reapers were obsessed to clean Switzerland and there was always many international institutions, including League of Nations and Red Cross - also capital city of Earth Alliance in Babylon 5 universe).
If you want more interesting place, I would use less known, even a little forsaken place: ancient city of Samarkand or mongolian Ulaanbaatar. Or Yerevan. Something like that.

Oh yeah, the Arcturus Station. Pity it was blown off from the face of the Galaxy though. I almost feel tempted to pick Geneva, but due to the city housing many international institutions, that could be the same reason why the Reapers could also bombed the place. There's a reason why the Citadel was a major good honey trap for past civilisations, because usually they house their government there, thus giving the Reapers an easy opportunity to smash a centralised government. Once a centralised government is gone, it will be harder for the rest to regroup and stage a unified retaliation. Well that's my theory.
On the other hand, I do like something to remind me of Babylon 5, so I'm strongly leaning towards Geneva at the moment.

Oh, someone is a little curious now, isn't she
I am really interested to see whats next, great work here!!
And not to be a nit-picker but its "mobilizing" not with a "s"
π: 0 β©: 1
Ah, well, we've use a different sort of English linguistic over here in Australia, where we tend to use 'S' instead of 'z' and we also use an extra 'u' at times. Still good to know if there's any errors had been slip, so I can fix it.
Yeah, you can say she's a curious type, but that's not the reason why she woke up, the ending to this chapter had the answer.
And thanks! There's a lot more coming out in the frying pan when the next chapter hits, which will be around soonish.

Ahh, one of those word, okay. It probably happened before but I don't know why it stood out this time, hmmm.
Oh I can't wait

Don't know. Maybe some of the games used the word "mobilization" a lot. I really can't remember that well, since it's been a very long time since I've last played a game that involves with military fiction. Ah well, some things do stick out from time to time, such as "Wait a minute. Did those ancient roman women use sea shells to shave their legs? Has the writers of this show did their research about this?"
And you're not the only one. I'm actually looking forward to draw the next chapter, which mostly takes place on Palaven, the heart of the Turian Hierarchy.
