"Missions with a coherent storyline"

I'm wondering what you mean by this...
Would it be a sort of "Choose your own adventure" type thing where you have a long sequence of very short scenarios?
Ie:
"Lead Task Force Alpha in a raid against the starsystem of Tyrik. Capture as many enemy ships as you can and return them to the Starbase in Al Anz by the end of the year."

...Later...

"If you managed to capture and retrieve zero ships, load scenario #032."
"if you managed to capture and retrieve one to three ships, load scenario #054"
"if you managed to capture and retrieve four or more ships, load scenario #082"

PS: A more specific name would be good for the mod, I'm sure.
Pick a feature that separates your mod from the rest, and relate it to that. From what I see, that would be the scenario / storyline part. The other things don't sound as new and/or different.

I just love how Kodos is ripping everyone elses ideas. Of course, other people around here do it to an even worse extent.

The question is what hasn't been ripped off. I see parts of everything from the UM2 to MM's site to SE2 in there.

Well, let's hope he gives credit where credit is due.

On the other hand maybe it will be a good thing if it gives you an incentive to actually finish the heavily publicized, much anticipated, way overdue UM2.

Well, those sound different enough. It seems (to me) to be the difference between a (potentially) interactive focus on one or few races, fighting for them through dark times, or somesuch, and a vast background story for the universe(s).

SE4 is pretty short on scenarios at the moment, so we could use any we can get.

A bit of clarification would be nice.
