I would like an intro showing the steps of mankind towards space mixed with Elite storyline.
The intro begins like Frontier, with the shadows forming a ship which becomes the word "Frontier" (or the new title).
The planet in the background is Earth. As the logo dissolves, you see Sun dawn from the night side.
As fast as light lit everything, you see a rocket puts in orbit the Sputnik.
As the satellite exit from view, the camera follows it but instead it locks on Apollo spacecraft, as it flies toward the Moon.
Then, the camera flies in free space, reaching a spaceship (maybe a terraformer one, i.e carrying huge mirrors, or strange machines) on route for Mars.
The view is now on Mars (not red but pink and cloudy, due of terraforming process). You see Mars High during construction, with Phobos passing by between you and the station. When the station is visible again, it's completed and Mars is a little more greeny.
A strange spaceship launches from Mars High bays. The camera follows it for a while, then the screen flash and you're nearby Pluto and you meet the same ship firing retro-thruster for a complete stop. The ship after rumbling and humming opens a cloud and slowly enters in hyperspace.
The view is now in another system with a blue supergiant star.
You see a blue exit cloud. Camera zooms back and you see several jump clouds in row, some small and some huge. At the same time a vaste fleet (with settler ships) emerge from clouds and fly toward Achernar 6d.
From planet orbit (Capitol), you see squadrons of Imperial Couriers, Asps and Ospreys come from planet surface.
A space battle between Federation (with finally some LR Cruisers in action) begins.
Suddenly, Thargoid ships appears from nowhere attacking everyone.
Fed. and Imps join their forces to fight the new enemy.
While Thargoids are destroying almost everithing, the action focus on a Cobra MkIII escaping from a Thargoid fighter.
The Cobra jumps in hyperspace.
In deep space you see a strange Thargoid ship firing in nowhere.
Soon after, a deformed exit cloud forms in the place and the Cobra emerge roughly from it.
A swarm of Thargoid fighters surround and destroy the poor Cobra in a matter of seconds.
The camera orbits around debris and the game menu appears (maybe with Thargoid hyperspacing in background).
This may sounds like a long intro, but I think it is longer to describe it than actually play it.
Obviuosly, an improved version of Frontier theme is required
