Even with i14's debut there was still so much interest in running that we had to turn away 3-4 people after our 2 teams were set up. Both teams came away victorious. I'll tell you about my team . They were another fine group that followed my directions to perfection. The members had all attempted MSTF with us previously; a couple of them had the badge on alts. Because of their familiarity I was able to keep instructions to a bare minimum.
Congratulations to Leather Doll, Bow Bunny, Winifred the Weasel (Squeek!), Kipland Durj, Phoebe, and Combichrist.
Our run was relatively smooth and speedy even with the minimum empathy/kin/radiation for support. Close calls were few and far between. We also got lucky with the key on the 1st Chief.
Awesome! Congrats. Imp...if you ever need help, just hollar if I'm on and have the time, I'd be glad to help. I did notice you had plenty chiming in for it.

I'm glad yesterday evening ended up being successful for the two teams that ran. Our team finished not long after the first team and with that...
Congratulations to Mage Black and Sister Cinders for earning MoSTF badges. It was a long time coming for Mage and now the monkey is off the back.
Here is a team pic.
Special thanks to the rest of the team: Nuclear Winter., Pixie Prey, Invincible Prey, Wild Sonja and BudLighter.
Everybody performed great and had fun especially considering we had no emp nor a dedicated tper/stealther.
Looking forward to the next one!

Two teams ran last night but no wins. I mismanaged my inspirations during the red tower and we failed. 
The other team had a mishap in the Vine room.
In hindsight I didn't do a good job of balancing last night's runs when I had a few friends who were vets join me on my team. My apologies; I didn't realize I had left the other team so short of buffs/debuffs.
With 13 people showing up yesterday we decided to run just one team . This also gave a break to the vets I've been depending on to lead other teams. I took the 7 people that arrived first to the boat, based on the best info I could get, (again apologies to those that didn't get to run).
With just one on the team not familiar with our plan and a team high on buffs/debuffs we ran at a faster pace. Things went smoothly until we had Scirocco add to the Ghost Widow fight. Scirocco took a shot at Animated Stone, (that Agent Onyx-5 had the presence of mind to summon), before I got his agro. That unexpected dual AV fight felt long and there was a sense of relief when we finished them off. Scorpion and Mako went down without any drama. We dropped the towers in pairs because of bad timing with the flier. Lord Recluse and the Towers ended up being easier than Ghost Widow and Scirocco. An extra trip for inspirations and an unexpected afk on my part added time to the run or wed have been done in under 2 hours.
Congratulations to Agent Onyx-5, Hesperus, Delrune, Power Ballad, Hesperus and to Angelic Rei. This was Hesperus' first time on STF though she's a long time veteran of the CoV side of things. Thanks to Wild Sonja and Jens Toxic Radiance for helping co-lead this run.
Talbein may set up a run during the weekend but doesn't know when it may be. Keep an eye on STF Masters channel if you're interested.
I have a run a few STF's but haven't been on a Mo yet.
the next time you run it if you don't mind mind I would like to add my Stone/SS Tank into the mix.
If he's not needed I have a few others that I can bring and am currently working on getting my Earth/Rad ready as well.
So time permitting and wife aggro allowing I'd like to be in the next Mo run if possible.
Rican.......
Awesome!

We had a late start on the runs because we waited to have enough to fill a second team. We managed to field 2 fairly strong teams last night but neither team won. 
Our team had a death, plus a sympathetic death at the Vine AV. The other team was good until just before the Red Tower fell.
Scrappy has voiced interest in running during the weekend with possible runs on Friday, Saturday and/or Sunday. Keep an eye on STF Masters for recruitment. I won't be on that much this weekend so "good luck" to all that run.

Well thank you all for last night's run I finally got the badge. Guess I should try it with other heroes now but that brings up a question, how many peacebringers have the badge? I never see Kheldians on these runs.

Grats on the badge!
I have a few opinions on why you don't see more Khelds:
1. You have to have leveled a toon to 50 (an original AT) and the Kheld to at least 45. That being the case, you're statistically far more likely to see one of the original ATs.
2. As this isn't a badge needed for an accolade, it is less likely that a player would want this "vanity" badge on a Kheld, since the Kheld is less likely (although still possible) to be a "badging" toon.
3. A Kheld brings an inherent added difficulty to the Task Force: voids (and cysts crystals) which have the capability to defeat the Kheld (and the rest of the team) very quickly. Many players don't want to risk it.
I know a few players that have the badge on their Khelds, but they have so many other options that the Kheld doesn't get as much play time as their other characters.
"Goodbye, Jean-Luc. I'm gonna miss you... you had such potential. But then again, all good things must come to an end..." -- Q
well my only other level 50 hero is a Kheldian, but i wasn't even thinking about the shadow cysts.
That's archtype discrimination. When will the persecution of Kheldians by Voids end?

Yeah there are a few that have this on their Khelds though...Knowmad is one that I know of (on his WS).

They are out there. After the issue 13 buffs, Kheldians are even more insanely powerful than they were before. The only thing that I can't do on my Warshade without inspirations is tank Recluse.
The easiest role for a Kheldian on an MSTF is as a blaster in nova form. You have longer than normal range, unsupressed flight, and a team resistance bonus.

Grats on finally getting it Suriel
We had one team going for the regularly scheduled Thursday MoSTF run and it was a good one. Four new badges awarded to the following: Suriel, Beautiful Suicide, Ammo Joe and Psi Phyre with three of them being their first time accomplishing the win.
Hearty congratulations to everyone. Also along for the ride were: Rad the Fab, Inferno Prey, Doc Jen and myself (Corwin). Unfortunately, I lost the team pic. Hopefully I can track one down from somebody else.
Team composition:
3x blasters (archery, psychic, assault rifle)
1x tank (invuln)
1x scrapper (ma/sr)
3x defenders (rad, emp, dark)
Overall, the run went very well which included an excellent clear of the vine room. The last mish had a couple of 'uh-oh' moments (flier seeker bombs) but we still came away with the win.

Congratulations all. I knew I had left the team with strong leadership and experience, even amongst those who hadn't earned the badge yet.
As to the Kheldian question: The rarity of the kheldians seems to be more a reflection of how few are played. The vets with such alts have sometimes been unable to run with them because they typically "play what is needed" to improve the chances for a given team to succeed. The team is already on heightened alert for dangers, so the risk of voids, cysts, etc. is greatly minimized just by identifying them before they become a problem. That I can recall, we havent turned down a kheldian for being a kheldian; they may have been asked to alt to fill a niche other than damage. Feel free to call me out if you remember a case when that wasn't true.
