I played on a level 50 DB/WP Brute on Ruthless.
Mission 1
I don't feel very strongly motivated to listen to the Pilot at all, but I am perfectly willing to overlook that--the premise set at the end of the first mission is perfectly wonderful.
Good variety of characters kept things interesting.
Mission 2
First of all, loved the choice of map. Just one thing - you should take a look at the singular nav display for the bosses. Also, I think it would've helped if the contact explained what you were doing before the mission - I didn't really know what I was doing other than clicking the glowies and what not until **SPOILERS** the bookcase rose out of the floor. While I'm in a spoilers section, I have to ask why the Arcane Armors all ask me why I'm running away after I defeat them. **/SPOILERS**
So far, I'm really enjoying the variety of mission goals that are presented in the missions
Mission 3
LOVE the setting.
**SPOILERS** The final fight was really awesome! I found the wave of Malta a tad on the mean side because of the sapper. I lucked out and saw him coming, but I would imagine most people wouldn't. The subsequent waves of electric-heavy mobs don't help the situation. Still, fun emergency situation to react to. Kudos! I really enjoyed that part. **/SPOILERS**
Mission 4
The story is developing quite nicely. **SPOILERS** I thought the end-drain on the last level was an edgy move, but very well-applied...but I didn't expect to see it again for the ENTIRE level on the very next level. The final fight against the EB was not very fun, to say the least. **/SPOILERS**
Mission 5
**SPOILERS** More electric guys... **/SPOILERS**The singular nav text in mission 5 also needs to be looked at again. Also, after I got the objective for defeating the honoree, I had no idea who that was or where he might be.
Overall
The first 3 missions were absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately, the 4th mission felt like you just called it in. By the fifth mission, seeing the same (annoying as hell) enemy over and over is getting pretty aggravating. I know that (a) I was on rugged whereas you suggested heroic and (b) I was solo as opposed to on a large team as per your recommendation...but still. I think there could've been more interesting ways to challenge the player other than just using end-drain excessively.
The story, on the other hand, was amazing. I really enjoyed it.
tl;dr - 4 stars, great story, but annoying recurring mobs
Anywaysss...here's mine:

Guild Description:
Center Society is an ancient fraternity that stands for the potential of mankind. That is, Center Society strives to ensure the continued development and growth of the human race. Recently, Center Society has been decimated by a cult-like organization that calls themselves Novus Ordo. In reaction, Center Society has sent a reconnaissance/rescue unit into Paragon City to search for Novus Ordo and to rescue any captured members of Center Society.
((We are an RP SG based around a fraternity system.)) -
This one isn't bad...it doesn't have anything about IOs, but the general power selections are still good.
Clicky -
Not a bad guide - the only thing I'd want to see in it were specific mentions of which (un)common salvage goes for millions and which go for chump change. That would skyrocket this guide in usefulness, imo. But really, it's not bad as is. ^^

Wow...succinct.
