Camp Pledge, 2022!
Whoo, yeah, it's that time of year again, baby!And, I for one wish it started now! Yes, that's partly because I'm currently on a school holiday, which means I'd have an easier time doing it now than in July, but it's also a general statement of enthusiasm!
Now, PLANNING!
UnfortunateIy, I'll likely have difficulty finding a great deal of time to write, what with the inevitable deluge of school stuff to deal with. Hence, I'll keep this year's goal to getting Bronze, which means writing 8 Articles. Of course, I'll be trying to fit them into the prompts, but some ideas of the things I'd like to develop further include: United Commonwealth Military vehicles, weapons, and equipment, and the inspiring doctrine, concepts, strategies, and politics within the stories behind each of them. The overall structures and systems of both the UC Military and the systems and political establishments that influence the wider picture of Foreign and Geopolitical Policy. The bulk of the proper UC Government, unelected or elected, and their functions, cultures, institutions, and perspectives. The scientific and intellectual accomplishments and developments that have led to the 12 Worlds becoming what they are today, speaking of their influence across the cultural, political, and economic spheres. War, how its is fought, has been fought, andcould be fought, who will be the ones fighting it, and the effects across societies by its occurrence And much more, probably! Of course, it'll be a tall order getting anywhere close to writing all these things out at all, but if I even get at least some of this stuff i writing, I'll be happy! Good luck everyone, stay happy, stay healthy, and have fun Worldbuilding!Homework 2: Themes!
EXPANSE
Now, I've got plenty of ideas for this! While I've technically created an Article for the Warp, i still ave so much stuff I am just waiting to write about it, and i think it'd fit perfectly! I might even consider starting again from scratch from the old Article and remaking it for this challenge. but more likely, I'll just come up with some new ideas. Of course, the Warp is just one part of the vast Expanses of the 12 Worlds! I realise that I might wnt to talk about certain landmasses and actual regions, though I'll warn you that I normally thknk of them more in abstact ideas rather thn specifics.LEADERSHIP
Now, THIS is what I'm looking forward to! My Worldbuilding bread and butter, broadly speaking, is Government and the Military, and this just falls right in that! I have dozens of ideas and concepts on both subjects rolling around in my head, from titanic military units and their legendary commanders, to the mighty political Establishment of the United Commonwealth. If there's anything I'm looking forward to, it's this! Hopefully, I'll also be to use this as an oppurtunity to look further into both the systems ad organisations that exist outside the UC, from belligerent or allied factions to international bodies, as well as look into the activities and systems the UC uses to influence the fate of the 12 Worlds.DISCOVERY
This is another thing I'm lookig forward to working on! The 12 Worlds is a setting in love with high grade technologies, advanced Science and Magic, and the never ending search into the vast unknown. Of course, even though there are many dozens of civilian technologies and discoveries that have happened, it will not be difficult to find a way to involve the Military side of things, I expect, especially since one aspect of the world that I delve into the most when it comes to new things, discovery, and rapid development is that of the Armed Forces.MONSTROUS
For this theme, I realise I have more possibilities than I expected! The horrors of war are hard to beat, the slaughter and violence that has been inflicted by people to their fellow humanity in the 12 Worlds being truly horrifying. But, outside of the relatively conventional horrors, one aspect of my World that I don't think I've done justice to recently is an absolute treasure trove of monstrous horrors and vile terrors, and the monstrous an vile ways the United Commonwealth has learnt to deal with them.Homework 3: Meta and Inspiration!
Well, I draw my inspiration for my Works from quite a wide variety of "Things".Remove these ads. Join the Worldbuilders Guild
Oh, those are really some expansion targets. I hope there are some prompts that you can use to make them happen. Otherwise, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the school gives you enough space to write even more than 8 articles. But yes, that's school. Good luck and lots of anticipation.
