Excellent rp posts here, I'll try to get involved more myself. But even if don't there's no shortage of great material

Vlostsok, your English is a lot better than a lot of English people's. It's also about a million times better than my Swedish. Well done!

Battleflag

I keep hearing about the Spelunker mission but I can't remember getting it. I imagine it's to do with caves but is there more detail?

I'll probably be on with my lev 15 tanker Battleflag, if anyone wants to team up just say so and I will if I can.

Battleflag

Should we start inviting our alts to the sg so we can play IC more often? I know my tanker, Battleflag would be glad to join. No change to the Thursday crowd though.

Battleflag

Ironclad

Sorry we lost you Manolith.


Blitz

The level cap for next week is 10 with an allowance of up to 11 in case anyone's having fun and doesn't want to quit. But no higher than 11 please.

Max

Thanks for organising the SG. I know nothing about the running of one but I understand everyone being in SG mode helps to gather points so I'll be in whenever possible.

All

Another good night's gaming as far as I'm concerned. We had a few early team organisation probs but they seemed to be solved effortlessly. Is the COV version going well? I know a few of you are involved.

TONIGHT'S TEAMS

These are the teams for tonight. I haven't included Jay-C due to lack of confirmation but he can join if he arrives. Sorry for any mistakes but I'm short of time, I may even be late tonight. The character at the top of each list is team leader for tonight—negotiate amongst yourselves if you wish.

Alpha:

Diamondskin-Tanker
Masked Angel-Scrapper
The Portent-Blaster
Tatters-Scrapper
Leygran-Defender
Force commander-defender

Bravo:

Extrisity-Blaster
Manolith-Tanker
Derek-Scrapper
Devlin Saint-Defender
Tristan Moyle- Defender

Charlie:

BlitzAarrow- Defender
Dragonfly-Scrapper
Hooded Blade-Scrapper
Brother Tchall-Defender
Hawkshaw-Controller

That's the best I can do, I hope it's ok. I should see you all about 7.30 ish If Jay-C turns up Charlie team could probably do with some help.


Battleflag

Vlostok

Scrapper's fine but post the details quick please as I'm organising tonight's teams soon.

Jay-C

Unless I've missed the post I haven't heard from you. Do I count you in tonight?

I'll put three teams together in an hour or two so all info asap please.

Chaos Mage/Leygran

Glad you made it and thanks for the bio.

Blitz

Thanks for the story update!

Thanks

Battleflag

Cloning problem solved.

Very nice with the flexible approach - missioning last night was great fun as always, and now Meriam doesn't have to feel too bad about having secretly practised a new crane kick to the point where she is almost (if not fully) ready to try it out in combat

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I know we're still in the "Early Days" of the idea but I don't think it'll be too long before we just play as an SG/Team when we can; which is not to say we forget the Thursday session but I think a larger lev allowance is going to be called for in future. From my point of view I didn't feel any different to anyone else last night despite the 2 lev difference; maybe it would have been different if I was in the front line but as a defender it was fine. In most normal, casual team ups there's a few lev differences and that works fine. In view of the fact that we are very deliberately working together it shouldn't be an issue.

I arrived pretty late last night but was pleased to see the team was there. Masked Angel was at 7.9 and wondered if she could continue in view of the lev limit. Fun versus rules, now there's a tough one. Of course nobody objected to her reaching lev 8, why would they. As a general rule I'd say try to stick to the limit but don't miss out on fun to do it. Having said that, don't turn up glowing like a lev 40 god when we're lev 15.

Battleflag

Vlostok

Thanks for the info.

Lev 7 was the max agreed for Thursday but some people are lev 8; it's no problem as far as I'm concerned. It's still worth keeping a max lev though otherwise people would be lev 10 and higher. Yes we have rules but mixing them with enjoyment is important too as far as I'm concerned--if you're having a great time it seems a shame to have to log for the sake of a lev. Just try to "play the game" so to speak.

Battleflag

UPDATE

I've had another look at the teams and this seems to be it so far. I could really do with some confirmation and clarification from Jay-C and Leygran(if you can get on the forum). Until I find out more about Charlie Team I'll just consider it provisional.

Team Alpha
Dante-blaster-Amber Banshee
Wolfram-blaster-The Portent
Leif_Roar-tanker-Diamondskin
Shalefist-tanker-The Gold Hornet
Pious-scrapper-Dragonfly
Blitz Arrow-defender-Blitz Arrow
Ashen-defender-Brother Tchall
_Max_-controller-Hawkshaw

Team Bravo
Dutch_Barbarian-blaster-Extrisity
Finn29-tanker-Manolith
Lotus_x-scrapper-Masked Angel
Hot_Head-scrapper-Tatters
Battleflag-defender-Devlin Saint
Cognito-defender-Force Commander
Universe-controller-Booster Ice
Britanic_Justice-defender-Tristan Moyle

Charlie Team (Provisional)
Red Saint-scrapper-Hooded Blade
? -defender-Leygran
Jay-C -warshade
Vlostok-blaster-Vlostok


Thursday 1/6/06 start time 7.30(arrive earlier to chat if you want) at the statue of the female hero reaching for the stars in Atlas.

So far we will be missing:

Booster Ice (What will Devlin do!)
Amber Banshee

That should leave us with 19, if Charlie Team all turn up. I'll finalise the teams tomorrow but it looks like two sixes and a seven.

I'm looking for two volunteers to organise this kind of thing if I'm ever unavailable. It's no problem if I can't make the session but at least in the early stages I think it's best to have the teams organised.

I was thinking of three team leaders for this Thursday:

Alpha: Diamondskin
Bravo: Extrisity(Let's give the kid a try)
Charlie: Blitz Arrow

Obviously, due to Charlie being under strength and absence there'll be some shuffling around for the session. You're all still in your original teams as regards long term organisation though.

Comments and questions please, I'm sure I've missed something.

Charlie team please post if you haven't already.

One last thing, would it be helpful if I started a thread just to post the long term team lists/Militia membership on?

Battleflag

Just so you know, this is Charlie Team as far as i can tell:

Red Saint
Wolfram
Leygran(character i met and wanted to join)

I'll post the team lists properly on thursday but it looks like it'll be three teams of about 6--should be fine. It'd be fun for us all to hunt together some time, it'd certainly puzzle people

I hope you've made it on to the forum Leygran/Chaos mage

Battleflag

Hmm, I hadn't given any thought to that. I suppose I'll either go down the flight route or tp; both would fit Devlin's magical background. Hover and tp would be the most useful I suppose and both would fit his concept. But which first? Hmmm...

Battleflag

Red_Saint

You're more than welcome, just read the recent posts to see what's going on. I'll maybe see you tonight or Thursday. You're in Charlie Team.

Militia

On Thursday we may have to spilt into three teams as at the moment we will be 17 strong. Of course that will very likely change one way or the other by Thursday. Anyone who can't make it please let me know. That may include me by the way.

Battleflag

I just posted this on a different thread but I thought it belonged here as well:

"Comrade

That's quite an rp history you have there, I'm impressed.

Yes, we're on Union and you're very welcome to join this Thursday. We have two full teams and are forming a third but one of our players will not be with us this week so you can take his slot. Your character will need to be about lev 7 by Thursday to match the rest of us. On Tuesday, at 7pm to 7.15pm a couple of us are going to try to meet up to get form lev 5 to 7; you're welcome to join us. We will be meeting in Atlas under the statue of the female hero who looks as though she's reaching for the stars. Post on the "IC team up session" thread the name of your character and we'll keep a look out for him/her. Oh, and could you post a bio on The Militia thread when you get chance please. Any questions please post on the IC team up thread, we're a helpful bunch.

You are the first member of Charlie Team, congratulations! 7 more places to fill, tell your friends.

Comrade

If you want, you are welcome to join the Thursday night in character team up session. Just have a look at that thread and the thread entitled "The Militia"--that's mainly for rp stuff. You'll either have to make a new character or wait until we reach your lev to join.

What rp games have you been playing?

Battleflag

Max

That's one for you.

Since I take it that it technically would not be breaching the level cap for Angel to be at say level 7,9 for Thursday, she will try making the meeting Tuesday as well for a brief hello and team-up - doing these missions IC is just too fun to resist.

[/ QUOTE ]

I wondered which barrack room lawyer would pick up on that first. You're right of course! I imagine most of us will turn up on a Thursday about 1 bar away from the next level; even the heroes bend the rules sheesh

It looks as though the cov team up is doing well
Battleflag

[ QUOTE ]
. One last thing: teams can only be a maximum of eight people. If we're asking for two of each AT, we'll end up with ten people on Charlie team, meaning a potential spill over into a Delta team.

[/ QUOTE ]

Once again I make the same mistake, thanks for pointing it out Dante. Please use the 2 of each AT as a rough guide for a team of 8, if you see what I mean. Sorry you can't make it on Thursday but hopefully you'll see some of us around anyway. Maybe 7pm a t the statue should be worth a look every night for Militia members looking to team.

Blitz Arrow and Devlin Saint are going to try to meet up on Tuesday at about 7 to 7-15ish(no guarantees from me). If an of you want to tag along to reach the lev cap, please do. Alternatively, if you've already reached the cap why not come along with a different Alt, obviously we're lev 5 to 7 but we can exemp/sk. Could be a good way to get to know some different incarnations of The Militia.

I'm playing as a brutal(Think The Punisher with napalm) blaster known as Warfire at the moment and of course, my tanker Battleflag. To be honest, I'm struggling to play as Battleflag due to a lack of interesting team ups; I suppose it's understandable after the immersive experience on Thursday

Battleflag

Hey Blitz

I could do with a bit more crime fighting experience before Thursday so I'll do my best to meet you there. I wonder if we'll meet anyone who isn't in The Militia but just wants to tag along, or maybe even see if it's for them. I hope so.

Devlin

Well I'm happy to announce that at the moment we have two full teams:

Team Alpha
Dante-blaster-Amber Banshee
Wolfram-blaster-The Portent
Leif_Roar-tanker-Diamondskin
Shalefist-tanker-The Gold Hornet
Pious-scrapper-Dragonfly
Blitz Arrow-defender-Blitz Arrow
Ashen-defender-Brother Tchall
_Max_-controller-Hawkshaw

Team Bravo
Dutch_Barbarian-blaster-Extrisity
Finn29-tanker-Manolith
Lotus_x-scrapper-Masked Angel
Hot_Head-scrapper-Tatters
Battleflag-defender-Devlin Saint
Cognito-defender-Force Commander
Universe-controller-Booster Ice
Britanic_Justice-defender-Tristan Moyle

Check your own details and please let me know if I've made any mistakes.

The whole point of this, apart from having fun, is to promote IC playing and getting to know other IC players. I hope that in the fairly near future we will be able to play at almost any time and still have an immersice IC experience. The only way that's going to happen is if we continue to grow so now I'm starting recruiting for Charlie Team. Anyone interested please post here and one of us will respond to you, we're a friendly bunch. See the start of the thread for a general idea.

Charlie team is looking for:

2 tankers
2 scrappers
2 blasters
2 defenders
2 controllers

There is some room for choice with ATs but we try our best for an even spread.

Do you want to be a scrapper, a blaster or a tanker Shalefist? (Level 7 is max)

[/ QUOTE ]

You're definately in Shalefist so please respond to Pious's question when you can.

Thanks

Battleflag

I'll organise the new members tomorrow; great to have you by the way!

There have been a couple of people asking about the level limit for the start of Thursdays's session; I thought we'd decided on 7(my character was lev 5 at the end). I've posted that as the limit as I'm certain that was what we agreed at the statue at the end of the session. A problem? Does it need to be higher?

I'll start a recruitment post for Charlie team tomorrow.

To be honest I'm reallly pleased with the level of interest in IC play, especilly having just seen Leif's COV team up. With a bit of luck we might be able to play the game the way I believe it is most enjoyable.
