    Odin slept with more women than Freya slept with men, so perhaps he should only wear clothing that covers max 20% of him?

    I don't remember seeing that part of their post-Tyrant plans - was it a Crusader story arc?

    I know Freya had a more modern attitude - but that doens't mean she would dress like ******

    And you're misinterpreting it too

    Love, beauty and sensuality doesn't = ****** clothes
  5. Just finished a 37:00 on Liberty and a 32:00 on Triumph - both PUGs
  6. So you stiff-armers still haven't gotten the message, have you?
    You can play as "Good Nazis", but you're still bad guys
  7. The offshore Praetorian base also fits in with an earlier suggestion I made for higher level loyalist stormtrooper content based around trying to sabotage the Primal Earth war effort against Tyrant.
    An offshore base, if it was big enough, could be an actual island zone, used for both a raid setting for us to fight the Praetorians, but also as the setting for higher level loyalists contacts - like it could be the next stage of the Praetorian jounrey - at 20 you go to primal Earth, but at, say, 30, stormtroopers could be contacted by Tyrant and sent to the offshore base/island to disrupt the opposition to the invasion.

    Think of it as the Nova Praetoria of Paragon Studios desks - you can't see what's going on beneath the sterile exterior.
  9. There will be non-Incarnate content in I20

    A CoH TV show would be fun - I'd go for a 60s Batman vibe for it

    That's why they're part of the faction - if they disagreed with either of them, they'd be with the Syndicate or the Destroyers
  12. The Helper has a gold name, and people looking for help have pink names.
  13. I'll try and attend as many of these as possible - Pocket D parties are always fun

    We should probably report him for breaking the forum rules though, just to be on the safe side.

    One of the devs said he liked to think that the Praetorian Nemesis died as a happy old clock-maker.
  16. Welcome to the game and the forum

    The sub fee adds up to about 50 cents a day - it's the cheapest entertainment around

    That would be getting to Nemesis levels of plotting
  18. Upgrading Gyrfalcon to Director 11 could make the final fight more explosive.
  19. Maybe we join a fleet to attack a loyalist forward base out at sea? Or maybe we have to stop loyalists from sabotaging a fleet?

    EDIT: I so totally called the offshore Praetorian base

    It could be an iron fist in a velvet glove flipping you off - only one hand would be used, of course, as the other would be needed for slapping your face.

    They're not so easy on PUGs, unless all the people have done them before and know the all the tricks - but for SGs, they're not that difficult to do on a regular basis.

    GR never has been, and never was, planned as a 1-50 experience - it was an expansion, not a new game.
    It was never meant to be some new playable 3rd faction that was independant of the normal game - it was designed for the 2 most frequently requested bits of content - a freshened up starter expereince, and an endgame system -so the devs used expanded Praetorian lore to link the 2 together - a low level introduction to Tyrant's world, and an endgame system where players fight against it.

    Actually, I think the Incarnate system would be a very good fit for a F2P model - which I mentioned back when they first announced the system
