    I like this idea a lot.

    So many different ways to go with this sort of idea too. Felines, Dogs, Apes, Aquatic, Reptilian etc.
  2. So, does anyone else hear, "Hey guys, I kinda want to work more."
  3. Just got from Villain to Rogue. Crossed through Pocket D.

    And climbed the ledges of the nearest building and looked at the bright blue sky.

    I realize I could do this on any of my blueside characters any time. But, something about getting away from the grays and brown of the Isles, especially after the Morality mission, was a nice little reward.

    Yeah, go on, pull the other one steampunk dork.

    I hope people can get on soon and let us know what is happening.
    Yay! I was wrong!

    I would think there would be, what with the market merger.

    I kind of want this now too. Would be fun to have something akin to Ranger from the old D and D cartoon.

    Also, depending on what angle they take, you might get some with an underwater zone too
    I thought the Mutant booster looked more like a Magic/Demon booster.

    Ooh, I'd love for Force Field to get an armor type option as opposed to a bubble, a series of smaller bubbles covering the entire body. Or shapes, like Stone has where the armor only covers parts of the body, with Personal Force Field giving you an full suit.

    Actually, that would be pretty cool(ha ha) for Ice Armor too. So, that you would be able to have a partial armor version of it, like Stone Armor.
  10. I like the no fire/ice sword idea. I'd probably have one or two uses for it too.

    But, how about using all the pre-existing swords, only with fire/ice effects added to them. I'd like elemental versions, but I'd also like to see the actual sword underneath as well. Like a fire sword, only with an actual sword with flames/ice on it, as opposed to just a sword made of fire/ice.

    Seeing as I'm probably asking for too much, might as well throw in Axe and Mace elemental variants as well for the Fire/Ice melee options. As well as, electric/energy/dark elemental variants as well for at least some of the melee attacks.

    Stone melee could also use a couple more hammer shapes, as well as a no hammer option. Hmm, maybe Stone Brass Knuckles/knuckledusters. Maybe brass knuckles would be a better glove request.

  12. Cad Bane did a lot of running in his previous showcase episodes, And the other guy was a real Mandalorian with a darksaber thingie, which y'know rule of cool...

    New season looks interesting though.

    I think that'll be true for most of the non-comic book movie going audience too. For non-fans, which is where the real money is, the star is the bigger draw than the comic book movie part.

    These next 5 days are gonna KILL me. x_x
    Me too. Except it usually starts when I hear about a new issue with things that I want to play. So, I feel like I've been in a bit of a holding pattern for a long long time now.

    Thankfully, I'm not too jazzed about Incarnates. I mean, I'll use it, but we haven't heard enough about the full system, and all the content to go with it, for me to be drooling for the next issue to start. Yet.

    It comes and goes in cycles. Here today, gone tomorrow. Nothing to really get worked up over.

    Considering I see 2 or 3 Paladins in Kings Row in that one spot all the time, which nobody seems to ever want to take care of, I fail to see how 3-5 Jade Spiders would be met with more open arms. Doesn't Jade Spider have some sort of nasty special too? Yeah, that would draw in people to fight it.

    While I agree with the OP, there's plenty of not so giant monsters that don't get taken care of daily already.
  19. Love the two new designs Z. Solar Maximum is particularly awesome.

    Or Thugs! Imagine Gang War with Clown thugs. Now, if only we could have them pile out of a VW Bug or a Mini-Cooper.

    I just can't wrap my brain around it. Picture the Justice League with Superman, Batman, Skippy, Wonder Woman..... does that work for you?
    They may have been called the Super Friends, but clearly they were the Justice League, and they had Robin as part of the team.

    Most sentai series has a gun to go along with whatever melee weapon. So, recolor the basic automatic pistol to match the character, or you could use the Match Compensator, as it's the most "sci-fi" looking gun we have currently, and pair it with fire, ice(fire and ice for the elemental weapons) or energy manipulation and you'd have a sentai-like set.
  23. Have you considered fire or ice melee? Fire melee would probably fit really well, but I think Ice could work in a pinch. There's also a bunch of sentai shows where they get things like Axes, bows and maces.

    I know that there's some space sherriff/metal hero shows that where the characters have guns and swords, so I think you could even squeeze in Dual Pistols if you were so inclined.

    Heck, you could even use Broadswords, particularly now that they expanded the options for Talsorian blades, so you can have a one-handed laser katana user if you wanted to as well. Also, I think the generally bigger broadsword models would work really well in a Sentai context. The big sword that you get for defeating Romulus in the ITF however many times is really special effects awesome, but the basic non-energy version is fantastic too.

    Ooh, a VEAT would work really well, you'd have the option to use the Mace as well as guns.

    I'm pretty sure it's from the supermodels from the Ouro arc. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get the piece.

    Good work, Paragon! Now, everyone can pay way too much for salvage, recipes, and, well, everything they weren't already. Plus the best part is by combining them, we have one whole collapsing market. I never thought I'd see the day....



    Another solid, Paragon. Someone ought to call up M5 and get them cracking on the saying, "Better late than never", because I think we've Busted it!



    Boo-Yah! Content we stopped caring about 3 years ago!

    Well. Done. Paragon.

    Someone needs to get on the line with the Peace Prize Committee, because this is the greatest recycling effort we might ever see in our lifetime.

    ---

    This game is going places, I'm not afraid to say it. You guys really know how to soar right at the sun, and never stop. Critics are always saying, "Paragon you're mad! This will never work!" but you just shrug your shoulders and stay the course, because this game can only go up, and can only get hotter.

    Just like The Hindenburg.
    TL,DR

    Y'know, folks used to just say DOOOOOOOOOOMM!
