Wonderful story.

[/ QUOTE ]I love stories like this. After all, this is indeed a game! Although, I never thought of it as an educational game.

[/ QUOTE ]Thanks all for the kind replies. Flame is a little emarrassed, but happy.

On the note of educational, being a parent and a occasional teacher, I can find education in just about anything, but CoX has a lot of opprotunities for all ages if you just look for it.

Since Flame is only 6 (soon to be 7), I keep to small math problems. For instance, I ask how many bubbles she has to go until she levels. Say she replies "3", I ask her what 10-7 is and she says "3?". Now, I can say that "I am 10-4 bubbles from levelling" and after a quick finger check (which is rare), Flame says "You got 6 to go.". With older children, you could have them figure out Enhancement cost totals or XP to Level totals.

I even started my little one on "CoH education". I click on an enemy and Princess S (her handle-in-progress) will tell me what color the enemy's name is. Pretty clever for jsut 4.
too bad there isn't any metric of I could add that as well.

Reading, Writing And "Arresting" enemies. CoH has it all.

The default enemies will be surrounding him unless you set it to Single, but when the players defeat them States will follow them around and fight as a friendly. Any enemy can be made an ally by this event.

On April 8th, NCNorCal will be releasing 'Issue 14: Architect' to the general public. This is the first time the PLAYERS get to tell the stories WITHIN the City of Heroes gaming format itself!

Freedomites know each other; we hang with each other; we rumble with each other; and yeah, we get into some really awesome flame wars with each other. At the end of the day, we're all about "us". But when it comes to Architect... having to dig our arcs out amongst the thousands of My Deep And Tragic QQ Life Story arcs from all the other servers is going to add a lot of confusion, when all we wanna do is find out what our local peeps are up to in Architect.

TO THAT END: I propose a Freedom-focused "Comix Rack", where any of our local authors can post their published mission arcs, once Issue 14 hits! (This is meant for 'Live' server arcs only, as the Arc IDs won't match between Test and Live!)

1. So, how should I advertise my arc? Simple! Follow the basic format below!

[ QUOTE ]
Arc Name:
Arc ID:
Faction:
Your global/forum name:
Difficulty Level:
Recommended Team Size:
Typical duration:
Arc Synopsis:
Link to a more info/comments thread:

[/ QUOTE ]

2. Should I comment here if I liked a mission arc? Preferably, no. Please keep this thread for announcements instead of commentaries. You can follow the mission author's "link to more info/comments" and express your opinions there, to keep everything in one place! (A good place for a feedback thread is in 'Stories & Lore' - see below.)

3. Where can I get more info about the Architect system? Good question. Have you been keeping up with the news? Try any of these links for background info:

The Mission Architect FAQ - The official CoX "Frequently Asked Questions" posting for Architect.

Mission Architect: Stories and Lore - The sub-forum dedicated to servers-wide discussions on arcs, background, mechanics, etc. Great place for feedback threads for your personal arcs!

ParagonWiki's 'Mission Architect' - When in doubt, check a wiki. A CoX-community Wiki clearing house of all things spandex!

...

Why are you still reading this? Pick up a Freedom Comic, kick back, and have fun!


(Thanks to Ex Libris for the general formatting, and ElectroHawk from Champion server for the inspiration!)

Just yesterday alone
Jan 26, 2010:
I've teamed with people doing STF, dual itf/lgtf runs, few TFs for TFC, AE farm, AE testing for arc story I'm trying to finish, and oh yes, HAMI RAID too. hmm..not enough hours.

Anyone else wanna share their day?
Do they even know we have quite a few channels they can search to join and find people to team with?

I'd like to hear from everyone else what they did each day?

To the OP: you are looking for AE buildings which are in very nearly every zone. AP (Atlas Park, one of the two starter zones) seems to be the one most powerleveling folks hang about.

Atlas Park would be the one with a white-house looking central area that has a fellow holding a globe as a lawn ornament.

Any tips, pointers etc to share? :S

your AE mission?

What is everyone finding most lucrative way to spend your time now?

This thread is for ideas and suggestions, and when I say farmers, I mean lvl 50's not power leveling nubs.


Obviously this topic is very controversial so please if you don't agree with farming on any level don't post about it as this is for constructive and helpful information, there are plenty of farm debates out there already.

Thank you,
I hope everyone reading this learns
something helpful from the thread.
