Post Easter Egg ideas here
I'm not sure what everyone else's opinions are but I've always been a big fan of Easter Eggs, so I thought we could start brainstorming some easter eggs, I'll get the ball rolling:
If a battle is important enough (for a simplistic value of importance) The Navigator from The Strangers (a Freedom Force mod) will swing buy to watch, he won't do anything though. It should be easy enough ask Dr Mike for permission on the FreedomReborn forums
If you name your empire "Tau'ri" all star systems will be given Stargate style names, e.g. "PR8-891"

Planets renamed "Death Star" could be textured appropriately (with self-made not-copied from Star Wars media texture).

On March 25, turn 42, A Large Red Message will come up saying "DON'T PANIC"

That is unbelievably awesome You could take it further: every-time you see an individual (e.g. the diplomacy screen) they'll have a towel with them.Krikkitone wrote:On March 25, turn 42, A Large Red Message will come up saying "DON'T PANIC"

Thats Brilliant! Perhaps also if you have the word Vogon in your Empire name then your ships should be yellow with occasional hazard stripes.
The enemy is retreating! As always, there is no cuteness about them. Dammit

All planets could turn into easter eggs during easter

This reminds me of the April fools joke you pulled a while back. Maybe you could do something with that? Or maybe some references to MOOII would be good.

If you choose "Kimbuzzi" as your Emperor's name, you'll get a farming bonus +10 on your homeworld.

Probably best to avoid giving gameplay (dis)advantages through easter eggs.
