I feel like I've been struggling with html all night... but it's done:
now you can read <a href="http://www.zompist.com/eastern2.html#sample">a
sample text in Proto-Eastern</a>; I've also written <a href="http://www.zompist.com/eastern2.html#syntax">some notes on PE syntax</a>.
<p>Glenn mentioned seeing Shm Revouse in color; I thought you might like to
see the larger picture he came from. It's the citizens file from the
Almea Civ2 scenario:
<center><img src="http://www.zompist.com/illo/civpeep.jpg"></center>
<p>These pictures are used to give feedback during the game. Going left to
right, we have 2 "happy" citizens, 2 "content" citizens, 2 "unhappy" citizens,
and 2 "deeply unhappy" citizens. Finally there's an entertainer, a taxman,
and a scientist. In regular Civ2 the scientist is Einstein; for Almea I
naturally thought of Shm Revouse.
<p>The rows represent epochs: the top row is ancient times, followed by
medieval, industrial, and modern epochs. The third row would best
correspond to the Verdurian present; the last row hints at the future.
<p>I don't consider these the last
word on Verdurian costume-- many of these are too reminiscent of Earth
costume-- but they were fun to do. Note that the color scheme is largely
dictated by Civ2 conventions; e.g. cyan for happy citizens.
