So yes, I am officially back. This story is the first one since my comeback, and it is the first mission pack of the Reborn Saga, and it is currently in progress. Currently, it consists of 16 missions and more will be uploaded soon. I hope you enjoy this mission pack as much as I'm gonna enjoy making it!

 

THEME SONG

 

 

STORY

It is 2001 in San Fierro, where hatred has been growing between two criminal organisations for a long time. The Blackwell family however has no intention to have the tension lead into a war between the two sides - to reach an agreement, the Triads offer a meeting where all differences between the two would be resolved. However, to the three Blackwell brothers sent to represent their business by their father, it soon becomes obvious that the Triad is only looking to ignite a spark to start the war. During the meeting, one of the brothers and multiple henchmen of the Blackwells are killed. The Triads will soon find out that killing their brother might have been a big mistake, because Kyle and Aaron Blackwell will do everything in their power to avenge the brother and destroy the Triad once and for all.

 

CHARACTERS

Kyle Blackwell

The protagonist/playable character. 32 years old, and the second oldest of the family. Kyle is a great shooter, incredibly smart, and has an eye for little details.

 

Aaron Blackwell

Youngest child of the family at 27 years old. Aaron wants to believe good about everyone, but is often proved wrong. He easily lets his emotions get the best of him.

 

James Blackwell

Oldest Blackwell child and 38 years old. To James, business comes first and family second. He has a wife and a son.

 

Richard Blackwell

Father of Aaron, James and Kyle, and the leader of the Blackwell crime family. He loves his sons like a father and hates his enemies like a mobster.

 

Sung Lai

Leader of the Triads in San Andreas, and owner of the Four Dragons Casino. He likes to keep himself entertained by declaring wars to other organisations.

 

Frank Drummond

A made man of the Blackwell family. He's been in hiding for half a year, but is now back to help the family get their revenge on the Triads.

 

Phillip Lee

An old school Triad hitman, one of the best. He does anything if the price is right. Phillip is highly intelligent, and packed with no remorse, a huge threat to the Blackwells.

 

Mai Chen

Sung Lai's assistant and a high ranking Triad member. He puts his bosses life before his own.

 

David Wang

Owns a car shop in Downtown San Fierro. Just 'happens' to be Sung Lai's nephew, and serves as a major supplier for the Triad's car dealing business.

 

Tanner Jackson

Frank's contact, who is a double snitch - he tells the cops what happens in the streets and the cops share their information with him. He's been in prison, and avoids going back at any cost.

7th and 8th mission released, and Chapter 1 completed. You can download the complete chapter here: http://dyom.gtagames.nl/show/35672

 

Also, the 8th mission took forever to finish because of a million bugs and crashes it had. So, if you catch any remaining bugs, please tell me. Other than that, enjoy the first chapter of The Blackwell Chronicles!

I played chapter 1 completely.

 

First thing I have to say is that I dig this mission pack.. a lot. It's noticable (at least for me) that certainty you have in designing right now. I don't know how else to put it. The story is very good.

 

As far as the missions go, major thing out of the blue is that I didn't think James would be the one being killed at the beginning. There's also a lot of strategic tactics used by Richard which reminded me a lot of the ''last stand'' in the first Godfather movie where Michael organizes several attacks to wipe out every crime family head. This will be a little different obviously since they're attacking the businesses first, but I still look forward to that.

 

I'm guessing this mission pack would have at least 3 chapters easily or am I wrong? Anyway, 9/10 for the first chapter.

Thanks a lot man, great to hear that from you.

 

All I can say for the storyline in the future chapters is that expect the unexpected, seriously haha. Twists and turns, your style lol. But yeah, there will be three chapters. The first chapter focused on taking down the two major businesses, and the third will focus on taking down the third major business while the third chapter... well, you'll see.

So yeah, I played the first chapter, and it's awesome. :^: The missions are very well designed, and the story also flows pretty good. But maybe one thing you missed is that the mission Sleeping With Pests is not set to read-only. At first I thought my GTA is going to crash but I'm wrong. Hope you can fix that.

 

And the Triad's boss is talking a lot about this 'secret weapon', and that took my interest the most. I think I know who and what is this 'secret weapon'. :rol:

 

Chapter 1: 9/10

Oh no, is it really not set to read only? Well I failed there then. I'll fix it later.

 

Anyway, thanks man. The secret weapon will be revealed in the second chapter so pretty soon you will know if you were right or not.

 

EDIT: Fixed it, it's now Read Only. Also fixed the complete chapter pack with the fixed mission 5.

9th and 10th mission uploaded, and the second chapter started. You can find the download links on the topic and play immediately, or wait for the full chapter to be uploaded all at once.

 

I planned to release four missions today, but some stuff came up so I didn't have time to design the one and a half I still haven't done. It may be that I will release the rest of the second chapter all at once, which should be ready by Friday or Saturday. Tell me what do you think, should I upload mission packs mission-by-mission, chapter-by-chapter or mission pack-by-mission pack?

The complete 2nd chapter has been uploaded, and can be downloaded in it's entirety here: http://dyom.gtagames.nl/show/35776. Hope you enjoy this chapter, and don't forget to give feedback. ;)

 

Like said, from now on I will be releasing by mission packs chapter-by-chapter. Starting to work on the final third chapter inside the next two days. If everything goes to script, this mission pack will be finished by the end of the month.

Alright, I took it upon myself to play this earlier than scheduled. I gotta say I'm very pleased to see the pace of this mission pack going upwards, contributing with new characters on the way such as Tanner, but still being well focused on primary characters and the story.

 

What I don't know about this mission pack (which is great by the way) is when it will finish. The plot has great amount of potential and it's impossible to guess when it will finish. You have the luxury to make 10 chapters with this plot if you ask me, but what's great about it is that if you want, you can finish it in a couple of missions. That's what I like about a plot and that's something that's very hard to accomplish. You have an 'exit strategy' at the end of pretty much every mission.

 

I'll just say two more things: Tanner is a bitch, many could get fooled by his ''foolishness'', but who knows? Maybe he's faking it... And the other thing is:

There he comes... and there he goes.

- I don't know, but that scene along with that sentence made me laugh like a dumbass. My favorite scene so far.

 

9.1/10 because it was better than the first chapter, but I gotta leave myself room for the upcoming chapters. :)

Finished Chapter 2. More action than the first chapter, and the story got a lot more interesting. And let me say this 3 words: I knew it. :D

 

For me, it was kinda obvious from the very beginning that this secret weapon is

 

James

 

One of the three main character got killed at the very beginning, then the body was magically never found, and Sung Lai spoke a LOT about this secret weapon, which he said that this secret weapon will destroy the Blackwells easily. It's kinda easy for me to figured it out, since I paid my attention more to the story than to the gameplay itself :D

 

 

Oh, and I thought you mispelled Blackwell into Wackbell, but I soon realized that that's the way Tanner called Kyle :D

 

Chapter 2: 9.5/10
