  1. I'd like in! Rosa Quartz, Stone/Mace Tank. Or, as CC notes, someone else if needed.

    I would imagine that Annihilus would be wrapped up in the Fantastic Four license, which would make him a Fox property.

    I like the thought though.
  3. Very good fun, thanks for running it.
  4. I voted B but... wow, I've been wanting costume jetpacks for so long, just knowing something is coming make me silly happy.
  5. Sounds like fun! Unless something comes up, I should be able to bring Huntswoman Emmanate out for Mort.

    I believe that's the hair from the upcoming Spring Fling pack.
  7. A few people took down the Seed after the Wednesday Hami raid was axed. My SG is discussing making it a regular event.

    Exactly the point of this. The companies that own traditional media outlets are almost all supporters of the legislation, so the issue has been given nearly zero attention in the news.

    The blacking out of these websites have helped inform many people who would have likely otherwise not known of this issue.
  9. It's pretty much the whole "Who would win in a fight, Superman or Batman" argument. The answer almost always comes to "Superman, unless Batman had enough time to plan, set a trap, choose the place of the battle, yadda yadda".

    Wade had 10 years to plan, set a trap, and chose the place of battle. The end. Looking forward to how the rest of the story plays out.
  10. Using it on my Warshade.

    Spring Attack -> Eclipse -> Mire works extremely well.

    Tights!

    Seems yes, but also texture. Cloth, matte (you can get a matte glove, but not matte tights), metallic (like the party pack skirt and shirt), and sleek (you can have sleek tights, but not sleek bottoms in many cases).

    This would allow cool things like keeping one's costume the same color/pattern-wise, but update depending on the "artist".

    Following the trend of above, this would be a beautiful thing. Sleek and tight if you want Alex Ross, folds and loose if you want Jack Kirby.

    Some say that the Defense and Olympian Guard base textures cover this style fairly well. Do you agree?
    Yes, I think this style is most represented in the game currently. I love the Defense and OG sets.

    This is a very good route to take. Low-level content isn't so hard in that you can't complete it without an optimal build. Once you get the feel of a character and figure out what you want to do, you can use either a veteran respec token or an earned respec from running a respec trial to go back and re-do your build.
  13. Tintable chainmail for men and women. Needs to work for characters like Shining Knight and Aquaman.

    Large cape broaches -- maybe the most neglected area of the costume creator. Think Dr. Strange.

    But really, just taking the existing Tights and Tights w/Skin options and texturing them cloth, sleek, matte, and metallic would go a long way.
  14. Missile Command blast power for I23, pls.

    And yet if her in-story fate ends up being the same as Sefu's, there would be an explosion of cries of "Refrigerator!", even if it happens the exact way as Sefu, and even through she's almost universally despised right now.
  17. Super-sidekicking changed the game for me.
    Inspiration combining changed the game for me.
    Changing self and team buffs to not root the player changed the game for me.
    Changing many single-target buffs to team buffs changed the game for me.

    It wasn't clear to you that the villain was insane? He wasn't behaving rationally because he was irrational. As a History Major, you should know that not all historical figures proceed on a rational course of action, so why would you expect fictional characters to behave the same way?

    I have my problems with nuTrek, but the villain's motivations is way low on the list.


    I also have to say, you are pretty much the first person I have ever encountered first hand who thought The Patroit was anything but a bowl of excrement. Your whole War Movie rant reeked of jingoism.

    Hyperbole. Folks in this thread have explained the proper tactics. As usual, it's a matter of getting your league to understand what they are.

    It's funny, but you can tell how far someone has read by asking which characters he hates the most.
  22. Bad idea: Only slotting for the knockback bonuses on your Peacebringer.

    Good idea: Upgrading your computer.
  23. If it's Citadel, I hope Back Ally Brawler gets a level 25-30 TF.
  24. Not Back Ally Brawler.

    Not Statesman.

    Any one of the rest would be fine.
