TheHangedMan

I was going through the MA maps and there were some good maps but nothing for a small map for that final knock down drag out final fight. I was thinking something like a final fight on the top of a building . I always like the Volcano map for its final battle. Its too bad there isn't a way to customize maps with the wall gadgets to create some sort of theme lair. Does anyone know a good small awesome map for that final mission for the MA?

This large group of magical heros who no one ever heard of comes from nowhere and leaves behind no widows no widowers and no offspring? Today is the perfect day for debunking the myth that the Omega Team helped save the world.

1) Travel to the Rikti portal is impossible because of the Van Allen radiation belts, solar flares, solar wind, coronal mass ejections, and cosmic rays make travelling there impossible even for so-called heroes

2) Its easy with trick photography to film yourself punching some guys dressed up as "Rikti"

Why would Paragon City fake an Omega Team mission?

Paragon City had problems and this distraction took citizens minds off the problems with costumed criminals.Paragon City benefitted with prestige for foiling an alien assault giving it an achievement dwarfing those of other cities like Freson, Dayton,Aldershot,Widnes, or Mexico City. Paragon City also raised a large some of money to finance Vanguard. This money supposedly went for superpowered troops but these troops are nowhere to be found. This money was more than likely spent by Ladt Gray on Light Beer and Nachos. Also Paragon City benefitted by delivering on a promise to defeat the Aliens when no proof exists they ever were defeated.

Known Issues with the "Omega Team" Incident

There are no known blueprints of any hero gadgets or "magical artifiacts" used in the Omega Missions

Every Hero or Heroine has a Battle Cry but no one knows of any Battle Cry from this "Omega Team"

Why wouldn't the wounded be teleported to the hospitals

Rikti Portals were known to attract farmers yet no member of Omega team has a pitch fork or wears blue jeans

Bill Nemesis Automaton's Book "We Never Went to the Rikti Portal: Paragon City's Thirty Billion Influence Swindle" showed the total magical power of the Omega team as only enough power to get to the Pocket D and not nearly enough to travel to an alternate world


There are no images of the landing site showing the Omega team

The "Rikti Landing Zone" is supposed to be dangerous but there is not a single fleeing civilian.

The Author of Lumières sur la Rikti Homeworld showed that one could dress up the Infected in costumes and stage an Alien attack

Many Scientists claim the problem is not getting to the Rikti Portal Area but getting heroes there. Without a single car or truck to drive how did they get to the Portal? There is no tram stop nearby.

Science Accomplishments that took Jules Verne years to write up were solved by this so-called Mr Science in only weeks.

Rikti Monkeys are believed to be clockwork forced to wear monkey suits and to throw poo specially made by Crey Scientists

The "disappearance" of the Omega Team conveniently gets rid of most witnesses to the Omega team mission. All the missing heros conveniently belonged to the Alpha or Omega team.

Heros supposedly went to this Rikti world but there is no mention of Rikti hating PvP, Surely exposure to so many heroes would cause them to assimilate some of the hatred of PvP


With evidence like this surely the citizens of Paragon can only wonder if the Omega Team was real or some sinister cover up.

I was working on a new idea for an adventure where I give the Tsoo quotes from 1980's Hong Kong Martial Arts movies like the villain taunt "Your Father is an Iron Worder and Your Mother sells beans". Which type of quotes do you think go well with NPC groups. I can see using gangster quotes for the Family. What others can you think of?

Crab Claw Melee

I didn't get the name quite right. I did not get time to finish drawing the Hearts, Kitties and Cthulhu's pattern.

I was thinking what hero costumes would look like if we all hung out at the mall



This one is for Brutes, Tanks and Martial Artists



Archery FTW



This would be for the Mr Furious types



Ubelmann is my favorite arc



I wish I had the old Hickman Villains list for this



Not every costume piece can be a winner



This would be for those civilians getting robbed. If I was a supervillain I would make people wear my T Shirt like this...



Disappearing Stalker Shirt




Tough Guy Gal Shirt



The Freaklympics should be a server event



Only thing better than dual pistols would be summoning demons who had dual pistols or maybe ....

I was born from the union of a werewolf and a Pumpkin. However the Pumpkins and Werewolves have been at war in Croatoa long before I was born. So I was looked on with scorn and hatred by both Pumpkins and Werewolves. I became a hero and tried to make Croatoa safe for everyone. Now I leave to make the world safe for everyone. I hope that someday we will have a world where pumpkins and werewolves will learn to co-exist. But hopefully every Red Cap will be dead because I don't like them.

Reply hazy, ask again later

The Magic Eight Ball



As the foremost stage magician and martial artist in Paragon City I knew I would be included in this mission. As my Uncle Ernie used to say "If the Magic don't get em, then the Groin Kicks will". Hopefully he will be released from the Zig by the time this is opened.

Hocus Poke Us


It started off early when I used to sneak out of school to pull rabbits out of a hat. Then I would cut class to work the card trick circuit in the Rogue Isles. Then I got hooked on the hard stuff. First it was escaping from straight jackets, then levitation, and finally I hit rock bottom with sawing people in half. It got so bad that sometimes I would find people passed out in gutters and would wake them up screaming "Pick a Card Pick a Card". But thanks to scream therapy I was cured and I joined the Midnight Squad. How could I refuse these heroes when they needed magic to fight the Rikti. I only hope that they can help some other kid stop pulling scarves out from their mouth before its too late.

Hex-a-decibel



Its been a rough few last years. First Twinkie the Kid got caught in some Hellion Skull crossfire. Then Captain Cupcake turned his back on a Freakshow tank boss and paid for it with his delicious creamy filling. King Don got crowned by a Troll Rave and the Chocodile disappeared near Eden. Now I sense my time is ending. I will stand between the Rikti and the world and scream "You shall not pass .........up this delicious fruity goodness"

Confucious say he who does not go before Omega Team leaves will hope to find Portal Potty

The Fortune Cookie

At least when I come back I will still be unique. I would hate to be some strong man or someone with Ice powers who struggled back from the Rikti mission only to find thousands of copycats. I bet Captain Shield will have dozens of shield wielding copycats. It is great to be unique.

The Dual Pistol Demon Summoner

Before I leave on this one final trip I must take to time to clear the air and admit to my mistakes . I was the person who started teaching waiters in restataunts to ask people if they want ground pepper on their food. I told Hollywood to make the movie Showgirls. One weekend I taught the first group of people how to talk loudly on cellphones in restaraunts. I taught people in New Jersey to switch over to the left hand lane of traffic if they were driving slower than everyone else. I taught people with webpages on the internet to put in as many pop ups as possible when trying to read one article. I taught people to tailgate in Drivers Ed. I taught people at Insurance Companies to act like they are doing you a huge favor when they are doing their job. The other week I told some TV executive "Just throw a bunch of reality shows on your channel" .

In order to make up for my many mistakes I have created one last great idea that people will love. This is my parting gift to the heroes of Paragon City.

The Enhancement Diversifier





When I first started being a hero I was just a simple reincarnated girl from the Moon Kingdom . Life was simple. Then after a while I kept noticing some heroes who started dressing like me. Then they started making battle cries about Moon Power and I will Punish You. Then they started writing fanfics about me. They started calling my archenemy Queen Beryl and left so many threats that she had to get a new cell phone. They began ruining my life. I started seeing more and more women in Sailor costume running around fighing crimes. They would steal my mail and look through it. They called every boy I ever dated. Then came Sailor Sun, Sailor Nun, Soldier Moon and worst of all Salesman Moon all telling everyone they knew me and using my name to get discounts at stores and eateries. I began drinking from a Brown Paper bag to make them go away. But they never went away and I never had a moments peace. But this one way suicide mission came along. Finally I have one last place I can go where no one will imitate me. I can at last find peace. For only I have the power of the moon and my magical abilities will help save this earth.

Sailor Lunar




I Jomo Momo have decided to join the magical team to attack the portals. For I Jomo Momo am not scientific or mutated but I am in fact magical, yes I Jomo Momo shall be one of the magical company to storm the portal. It will not be a company of technology or natural heroes but magical heroes including me Jomo Momo. For I Jomo Momo have the ability which people call magic. It will not be an attack with guns or clubs but of spells and magic for I Jomo Momo do not use such things. This is because I Jomo Momo am magical and I will use that magic to join the magical team attacking the portals. I have left a 200 Meg document with my last will and testament which must be a magical document because I Jomo Momo am a magical hero.

Jomo Momo




It is with a heavy heart we have learned that our leader the famous Sailor Lunar has decided to sacrifice her magical self in order to save Paragon City and the Earth from the vile aliens. Last night at Salesman Moon's apartment we gathered to discuss this terrible news. After much soul searching and eating pork rinds all of us marched over to Hero One's place and asked to be put in the Magical Attack team. Every last one of us volunteered from Sailor Nebula to Tuxedo Max. We all piled into Landlubber Moon's Winnebago and after a stop to pick up several cases of Diet Orange Crush and Pork Rinds we all headed to Hero One's Address from the mail which accidentally fell out of Sailor Lunar's Mailbox the other day. At first Hero One was reluctant to have us along. However Salesman Moon began leading people in shouts of Moon Power and several people pointed out that many of us really have magical powers. He agreed if one major villain would vouch for us as powerful magical heroes then we could go. We were happy but then despair set in as villains after villain laughed at us. However in a huge stroke of luck Queen Beryl agreed to vouch for all of us and said she was sad to see us go but understood the need of the earth was greater than her own personal villainy.

So tomorrow as a big surprise we will all portal jumping after Sailor Lunar has gone in. We will spend our last few hours together singing some Moon Powers songs that were on a website. We also brought some hair samples and nail clipping from Tuxedo Mask's rehabilitation after his nervous breakdown to show Sailor Lunar. I can't wait to see the huge smile on Sailor Lunar's face when the entire Sailor Scout Squad assembled for one final battle. Sailor Mook, Sailor Sun, Sailor Nebula, Salesman Moon, Sailor Sun, Tuxedo Max, Tusk Mask, Tuxedo Mike, Sailor Asteroid, Landlubber Moon, Sailor Uranus, Sally Moon and Sailor Moo all in one last grand gesture of Moon Power. Rikti! In the name of the Moon we will punish you!

Sailor Mu

This message is for my summoner Mage Archos,

When you get this message I will be off with the Amazing Magical Dan to fight the Rikti and make Paragon City safe. When the leaders said that we needed magical heros to end the Rikti threat I wondered what I, a simple Clay Golem , could do to help. It was then that I first met Magical Dan. He used his amazing powers to make a dime disappear behind his ear and re-appear behind his grand daughter's ear. I knew then that I had found someone who could help end the Rikti threat. I remember his first words to me "Put me down you big clumsy oaf" and "I aint no hero". However on the way back to HQ we are attacked by the Rikti. When they punched him in the lower intestines he made this intense screaming noise which nearly paralyzed the Rikti. His battle cry of "Oh my Colon, Oh the Pain" only confirmed my suspicions that Amazing Magical Dan was a hero in disguise possessing some sort of sonic powers. So I have placed the Amazing Dan in a stasis tube so he will be at full power and tomorrow together we will make history.

The Simple Clay Golem




They say my powers will prove useful against the Rikti. I know 4 magic phrases. CAFEBABE, CAFEDOOD, 25 50 44 46, and MEOW. With these 4 phrases I can do terrible things to robots but not a whole lot to the Rikti who I believe are non-robotic and non-cyborg creatures. However I do believe in the heroes who tell me I will make a difference. Maybe its not my magic but instead my Sprinting , Brawling or Apprentice Charm that will help turn the tide. However in a moment of doubt I ran to Wentworth's and put a down payment on a St Louis Slammer to be delivered before we leave tomorrow. So tommorrow if I can't use my anti-technology magic then I will be casting Apprentice Charm with all my might. If the Apprentice Charm fails me then its up to the St Louis Slammer. Then I will utter the last magic phrase I know, "Lets Play Two", and it will have to be enough.


The Magic Number

What if there were some less than heroic messages in the time capsule that was found? Here were some that I came up with



Goodbye Cruel World

Captain Cliche


If you are reading this then I have not returned from our adventure into the unknown. When I left I could not bring myself to have my pet Hydra neutered or put to sleep so I put it down the sewers. My assistant has instructions to feed him two shakes of Hydra food each day from the Bottle , no more , no less. As long as he follows those instructions the Hydra should not cause any trouble. In the meantime I have placed my entire collection of powerful, dangerous, and unstable magical items in the MAGI vault for safe keeping. No one will ever find them there.

The Magnificent Apoclypsos


When I found out my magical abilities had punched a one way ticket to Riktiville I wanted to do something to keep the villains at bay for years. So I got together 7 of the most powerful wizards from France and we cast a special charm on the villains. Until I return all villains will want to rob banks and break things. However if they gather in large numbers they will be defeated more frequently. Then they will be teleported into Jails where the people who beat them up will all run in and keep beating on them. Then after a few more crimes they will get sent back to rob banks where the process will start all over again. This should make even the most hardened criminal curl into a ball and start crying. It is my hope that this cycle of robbing banks and getting beaten will keep the villains in check until my return.

Captain Mayhem


When I heard that all of us magical folk were being sent to fight the Rikti I had to rush to take care of my lair. In my haste I forgot to install that new alarms system on the Zig. But what's the worst that could happen? It can wait until I return.

The Locksmith


As we get ready to leave for the great unknown I have been thinking about our legacy. Our Superteam has spent the last 10 years cleaning out every criminal from every set of caves in Paragon City. Now there are only one group of Thorns left somewhere in Perez Park. We should have time tomorrow before we leave to defeat these last few cavern dwellers. Then no hero will ever have to enter a cave again! It was a long horrible 10 years but it will be worth it knowing no hero will ever have to endure what we went through. The Dark Oracle said something dire would happen if we didn't finish the job but everyone knows she is a crackpot.

Earthmage, Leader of the Spelunkers.

and I want one of my characters battle cry "Pizza Cake" made a battle cry for some comic relief hero or villain. When ever they get asked to do something they yell Pizza Cake

If one of your characters, mission arcs, or custom groups was made canon in the game which would it be and why? What have you done that would make an awesome addition to the game?

I would like to see some of my stranger character Bios make it in. I always thought robbing a bank was not good enough for a character Bio so my characters always had odd first adventures like stopping Renegade Belgian Biochemists or "some made up but could be in the game character" like Coronel Zurnig (Colonel Madness) of the 5th Column. These would go into the minor heroes from various factions in the mission architect.

Ut oh, looks like all the posters are Dr Aeon Supporters. Nooooo! Don't make me drink that funky water turn me into an Infected!

No you can't use Ambush Completion as a trigger. I read about this because someone had done something clever earlier but the arhcitecht won't allow it currently

10) How many times has Dr Aeon told you snow has your school closed? The TV has your back!

9) Baywatch

8) Try telling your girlfriend you went to the motel to watch Dr Aeon. The TV can forget about that little incident for your support.

7) If the Television gets upset it could always put Xena Warrior Princess on every channel. We don't want that do we?

6) The Television has McGyver, A-Team, and House on its side. Dr Aeon has some lab nerds. Who is really going to help you?

5) The remote chance players could TIVO the Positron TF

4) How many times has Dr Aeon kept your kids quiet while riding in the back of your SUV? None? Thought so

3) Try watching the Superbowl on a 60 Inch Dr Aeon. Just not the same

2) The Television has the Doritos kid on speed dial to slap the taste out of people voting for Dr Aeon.

1) Want to know what happened with Snooki on Jersy Shore with the hot tub? The Television is your friend and can let you know for just a little support.

Add a timer objective which automatically completes after a minute or two. This event would auto-complete and could be referenced by other triggers. If this was in place players could create their own horde mode missions.

1) Timer would link to another timer and an escort mission with no enemies
2) The escort mission with no enemies would link to an ambush
3) The second timer would be linked to a third timer and an escort mission with no enemies just like #1

This would allow people to create waves that gets tougher over time by changing the levels and numbers of ambushes firing off from the trigger.

Ambush 1 could be easy at 60 second
Ambush 2 could be medium at 120 seconds
Ambush 3 could be hard at 180 seconds
Ambush 4 and 5 would both be easy and spawn at 240 seconds
and so on until the last Ambush would be 2 simultaneous hard ambushes.

This is something you can already do with the Mission Architect but with no delay. So I was able to create 5 simultaneouse ambushes in a test mission. I need thr timer delay to break them all into waves.

I am going to write up a suggestion and see if anyone likes it. If this would put into the game then people could create some very fun adventures. You could create the Nemesis invasion recreating the waves of attackers with one of the missions. You could create the Fifth column invasion or even script out your own Rikti Invasion.

No I want something that will automatically complete itself so I can use it as a timer to trigger other events. So if I want to have an ambush 90 seconds after a boss is defeated I would have the boss defeat create the timer event and then when the timer event completes then I can use that to trigger another event.

I am trying to create something like the Croatoa mission with the waves of Pumpkins or the Terra Volta Respec waves of bad guys

I have found stuff that auto-completes immediately which allows you to create super ambushes but I want my groups to spawn with time to recover.
