Valhall: Secret Rocket Base

The Valhall base was my personal project for the length of at least 3 years. As soon as I had heard about it I was salivating to get my hands on it, so I gathered the writer and game designers, and started working out were we could go with Valhall. At the begining the base was to be built directly inside a enormous snowy mountain that eclipsed all other mountains. It had to have a missile silo for firing the Nazi's WMD's and a large number of rooms for the construction of missiles,. It had to house faculty and administrators. It had to have a generator room for power, a jail cell, and a medical facility. A control room to fire the rockets, a gandola to approach the base, and a Nazi castle on the mountain surface. Needless to say it was a humongous undertaking but I was really excited by the challenge and I worked hard at it for along time. As with all projects things were constantly changing and evolving as I was developing the ideas, so it gave me a really great oppertunity to collaborate with many designers and world builders throughout the process. I couldn't have done it with out the help of Lee Souder, Justin Lewershttp://justinlewers.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2002-09-14T01%3A04%3A00-07%3A00&max-results=5 and Joe Myers who were all instrumental in developing our ideas.The project had a great collaborative spirit and the project was better for it. Unfortunately Valhall was cut towards the end of the development of the game which was heartbreaking, but I was happy to have worked with such great people.

I hope you enjoy viewing the work as much as I enjoyed creating it.

I do accept as true with all the ideas you've presented in your post. They're really convincing and
will certainly work. Still, the posts are very quick for beginners.
May just you please lengthen them a bit from
next time? Thanks for the post.

Beautiful work Jason. Such a pity it wasn't in the final release of the game.

Now with 6 years passed, and Pandemic no more, can you say why the level was cut from the game ?

From what I can see, you've never replied to a comment ? Great work anyway, such a great game, only ruined by those corporate drones at EA forcing Pandemic to put out an unfinished product and then shutting them down.
