Wow. Mr. Poppler's Penguins is getting better reviews than this >.<

The odds are, if you are teamed with me you are more likely to get a purple drop. Seriously. It's like a bonus power I picked up somewhere. Unfortunately, it only works on teammates and is not a self-buff.

I know I haven't been able to join you guys regularly in forever, but what's the 'storyteam'? I feel like I missed something.
Y'see, MA more commonly refers to Martial Arts with the playerbase and Martial Arts Superteams which are much more common.
Also "Superteam" refers to a group that meets to level from 1-50 exclusively in whatever theme they've chosen. Our new term, "Storyteam," lets people know we are not PL'ing farmers and our focus in on Story. -
I've recently found quite a welcoming population on Freedom outside of AE.
Join the global channel, Freedom TF or Freedom TFs (one is capped, iirc) or do a channel search (right-click your chat tab, choose "Channel Search" from the menu) and type in the keyword, "Freedom" and try one that looks good for you.
If you still want a new server, I suggest Justice or Inifinity. Both have good populations and teaming.
Oh! And welcome to the forums

Boo. Apparently it's not new books. Rumored to be a HP MMO.

...from Freedom server, it's First Son!
First Son has been joining us for the Ænvasion event for a while and decided he liked our brand of crazy! Please welcome him to the fold as we toss him to the wolves this weekend in our Ænvasion of his home server, Freedom. First will be sharing Æmbassador duties with me and heading up team 2 if he's up for it!
Glad to have ya! -
No, AE isn't server specific. But he may want to make it on your local server so you could join him in test mode to check it out before it's published or emailed to you.

Behind all the noise of DC's major reboot the names "Spider-man" and "Zeb Wells" popped out and I had to investigate!!
Unfortunately, the name "Madureira" was attached to the announcement, too, which means this fun sounding book will be lucky to publish 2 issues in a year.
Oh well. Keep trying Marvel.

Only 2 more years to that next costume slot! Gratz!

Ow. 24% on Rottentomates...

I read on the Dc comics board that basically warner Brothers told them increase sales and add intrest now or we will clean house and do it .

It's a little play on words. Since we're invading AE: "Ænvasion"

Quote:And what's the rate of Prae's respawn? Cause that's, essentially, the timer that Primal is on, then.Originally Posted by Black Scorpion
Hey all,
Just popping by to confirm that Primal Duray's teleport is at a base 2 minute recharge. However if Praetorian Duray (or a clone) is alive he will refresh the cooldown of his buddy Primal Duray's teleport much sooner than that, leading to more teleports.
So yes, the people reporting it one way and the people reporting it another way are both right.

Quote:Actually, there's quite a few guides already out there. And whole section of the forums dedicated to base building that has incredibly talented players that check it regularly, offering help & tips.Originally Posted by McCharraigin
Base building..grumble, grumble. I own at least one on every server, and on some servers I have two..I did not build a single one, and have no idea how to do so.
I went looking for something like a "Base Building For Dummies" guide but found nothing. No guides written for stupid people like me
...
Good luck on your base!
Now back to the original topic of fashionable equines... -
Quote:Yeah, I see the renumbering as their big "out." If it all crashes and burns they simply go back to regular numbering and most of the core collectors will come return. The Flashpoint Universe simply becomes a distant memory like Zero Hour, Marvel 2099, and New Universe.Originally Posted by Ultraamann
...Fortunately, there are any number of ways to leave themselves an out for when it goes catastrophically wrong (which it will). Ambush Bug would be a pretty damn good one.

Quote:Great example Bubba. 7 teleports in under 2 minutes!Originally Posted by Bubbawheat
Where did you get the 2 minute recharge time from anyway?
edit - didn't demorecord, but did FRAPs the fight, at least a min or so of it. Posting it to YouTube now, but it's raw footage so it's taking a while. Should be up later tonight.
edit2 - Video here. Still uploading but the link will work when it's done. Currently says 23 mins left.
That's pretty much the same experience I've had on teams without enough control/debuff. You can see why it's important to take out Prae Duray first in these situations. -
Ty Zam! OP is updated and Triumph thread is rollin'!
I bet I can guess 1 arc you've got at the top of your playlist! -

Zam, if you're concerned on the start time pick one that works for you. I'll add it to the OP and make a thread on the Triumph subforum once you let me know.

Well, I played thru about 20 steampunk arcs and narrowed down my 'best of' list to 3:
#136218 "Mechaneezer Scrooge" by @Mr Day
1 Mish, Neutral (MOST SPIRITED)
#336788 "The Steamworks Begin" by @Buster Brass
5 Mish, Heroic (BEST OVERALL)
#255713 "Urban Renewal" by @Djinniman
4 Mish, Heroic[indent] (BEST LOOKING CUSTOMS)
Olantern, you weren't kidding about the challenge rating of Urban Renewal to ramp up on a team!! Solo or duo, it's not too bad. Full 8...owie-zowie. Still a good story and awesome job on the customs!
After playing pretty much anything remotely related to steampunk I could find (ie. keywords: Victorian, steam, punk, London, automaton, etc), I concluded that, while we have a few that are good, this is a genre that's wide open for new authors to come in and make names for themselves! -

This sounds like fun! Im in, not sure what ill bring but I have just about everything.

Quote:It's great to see this much early excitement for the event! We usually run from 12noon to 3pm Eastern. We get in 3 arcs on average, per run...depending on if they're long or short arcs and how well-rounded the teams come out.Originally Posted by Residentx10
I'll be there. Diva Attitude or Heartless Attitude. @gcarlisle is my handle.
How long are you going to play? I have a bbq in the late afternoon around 5pm EST.
How often are you going to do this? Once a month maybe?
This is our first round of Ænvasions and, at 1 server per week, it's taken 2 months to finally hit Freedom! We're currently discussing a schedule for returning to each server, but we don't know when yet.
Of course, if someone from Freedom wanted to start up a monthly AE group, we'd be more than supportive and I'm sure a couple of our members have alts here that'd join in
I look forward to seeing ya'll on Sunday!
