<br />
At last I&#039;ve returned into the starship of EGS: I didn&#039;t like too much v1.9 news but I&#039;ve found another reason for playing it... well for the sake of this message it&#039;s not important after all.<br />
<br />
So let&#039;s go straight to the point: I&#039;ve finished the 6 new chapters and as usual a window appeared saying WIP but this time we should appreciate that the message is more human friendly than a classic TBC.<br />

I must admit I enjoyed doing those 6 new chapters but at the...<br />

<br />
In the last year we have seen a lot of proposals of adding new NPC factions with myriads of ideas and backstory and such. <br />
<br />
For integration of these factions, there are a few requirements though - and to better handle the ideas in a way that allowes me to review and place your faction in the most appropriate way, I have set up a SIGN UP FORM that will file all the important things for a possible integration.<br />

There isn’t very much information available on the origin(s) of the Zirax Empire at this time, however Intel reports that the ancient Zirax  were in touch with the ‘Elder Talon’, and were given a technological boost from the advanced civilization. The Talon and Zirax were joined together in a technological and cultural Union, called the “Talon-Zirax Assembly”, which persisted for hundreds of years.<br />
