Kitty Hate Hat : Arc # 99831
Story based, 3 missions, about 20-40 minutes gameplay or so. EB at the end, but you also get a massive zombie army in that final mission, so it balances out. It's about the cats you never see in Paragon City and the pet fashion industry.
I got 40 ratings for it the day after publishing and lots of positive feedback. The ratings pushed it down to 4 stars, so it will never see the light of day in the mission browser again. If anyone else sees it, it will be from word of mouth or threads like this one.
More information in my signature.
Gulp....heres mine.
Arc : 104553. The origin of Austals arrival in Paragon City
Its a long one with an EB and AV somewhere in the mix.
Took me ages to get the guts to publish it, so any constructive criticism would be much appreciated

Your global/forum name: cfischer999
Difficulty Level: Not so much.
Recommended Team Size: Any combat capable combo.

Arc Synopsis: Stop the spread of the Superdine derivative "S-Lite." Three missions, designed for levels 5-14, the middle mission is a defeat all but not too onerous. Heroic in flavor, but you can always take a villian in and pretend you're muscling in on someone else's territory. Scales well for different challenge levels. Front-loaded difficulty.

Easy mission in the middle in case half of your team needs to go AFK.

Arc Name: Positron Task Force Part II
Arc ID: 132447
Faction: Heroic
Your global/forum name: @US Customs Inspector
Difficulty Level: Hard
Recommended Team Size: +4 (intended for lvl 50s)
Typical duration: 90 minutes
Arc Synopsis: It appears that the Vahzilok, Clockwork, and the Circle of Thorns were all being manipulated by a fourth, unknown party. This "shadow group", if you will, has recently contracted Malta Operatives to obtain an ancient artifact. During this time, the Circle of Thorns have also stumbled onto what this shadow group is looking for. Now, it's a race to see who can get it first.
Link to a more info/comments thread: I wanted to originally "re-write" the Positron Task Force; however, there are already four other versions done. Instead, I thought to tidy-up the story line by evolving it into something more sinister. I wanted five missions, but in the end, I had to cut one because custom critters take up quite a bit of room in the arc file. Please send me some constructive feedback. Thanks.
Arc Name: The Platinum Records

Typical duration: 45min 2h (time entirely based on personal/team desires)
Arc Synopsis: This is a documented record of the evolution of a unknown group of congregating specialists known as Seculars and the events that led to the movement known as the Platinum Rise.
Link to a more info/comments thread: None.
Updated 05.05.09
Platinum Records now has a story arc souvenir to collect at the end.
Mission 2s Defeat All objective has been retired. Only generators need be destroyed.
Mission 4s patrols are no longer present. Keep an eye out for ambushes however.
Blacktop (BT) Pathfinders have shed their Electrical Armor for Invulnerability. Bring a hammer.
Blacktop (BT) Shotsmen now no longer resurrect.
The final EB/AV has traded in their Dark Armor for a more appropriate type of skill.
Unresolved Issues
Mission 4s objective processes incorrectly. There are three (3) allies that require your help to complete the mission objective yet they do not appear in the objective window. This mission is still capable of being completed.
Name: Positron Task Force Part II
Arc ID: 132447
Length: Long (4 missions)
Morality: Heroic
Enemy Groups: Malta Operatives, Circle of Thorns, Custom Group
------------------------------------------------------------------------
While lounging around your super group base one day, an encoded message is received from Freedom Phalanx headquarters specifically requesting your assistance. The message doesn't list any specifics, but it does ask that you meet Positron in person over at the Architect Entertainment Corporation. Gathering up your fellow heroes, you head on over to see why Positron is so mysterious all of a sudden.
Remember awhile back where you helped Positron out of a jam when the Clockwork, Vahzilok, and the Circle of Thorns all tried to destroy the Faultline Dam? It turns out there was a much more sinister plot behind their actions. They were being manipulated by a fourth, shadowy group that has never before been encountered. This time, they have employed the services of the Malta Operatives to accomplish the destruction of the Faultline Dam. To make matters even worse, the Circle of Thorns have decided that they want to get involved, too!
Head on over to stop the Malta Operatives and hopefully be able to track down this shadow group!
-------------------------------------------------------
I originally wanted to redesign the Positron Task Force but upon investigation, there were already at least four other arcs that attempted the same thing. Not one to give up, I read through the Positron Task Force to see if there was a way that I could expand upon it or write a continuation story. Even as Mr. Miller has been quoted as saying, it felt a little too "scattered" so I tasked myself with the challenge on how I can bring all of those back together into a close-knit story.
Presto! Part II was born out of creating a fourth group of villains that manipulated the Clockwork, Vahzilok, and the Circle of Thorns into destroying the Faultline Dam. Their hope was that by getting three groups stirred up, it would send the heroes scrambling all over Paragon City and just maybe one of them would succeed. What they didn't count on was the heroes winning in the end.
This time, they decided to employ a little higher caliber of bad guys by contracting with the Malta Operatives. The Circle of Thorns, upon learning they had been manipulated, discover exactly what this shadow group is after and decide that they must have it for themselves.
The arc is only four missions long due to the amount of size the custom critters took. I would highly recommend that you not solo this arc as you're going up against some pretty tough bad guys. On challenge level 1 with my fire/fire blaster, I did acquire some pretty staggering defeats. On challenge level 1 with my level 50 invul/em tank, I was able to get through it without any defeats, but it does take a lot longer.
Please check it out if you're looking for something new and different. One thing I highly value is feedback, both good and bad. If you're response is going to be "my arch/emp defender can't solo this..it sucks!", then don't even bother trying to play it. I like to design missions to be as extremely hard as they can be (which is why my next one is going to be a real doozy!). If you want to let me know that I screwed up on some text or need to tweak the storyline, I'm all for that.
Thanks!
You just can't believe it. No matter how hard you try, you just can't believe it.
Tyrant needs your help.
Yeah.
Tyrant is the type of leader that demands the sharpest edge from his lieutenants. As a result, he encourages tests of intelligence, wit, and even armed combat among themselves to determine who is the strongest to have at his side. This has served him well...until now.
He never thought that perhaps one day his lieutenants would form an alliance to oppose him. That day has come. And now he needs your help.
Why help him, you ask? The lieutenant who has decided to oppose Tyrant is none other than AntiMatter, who possesses portal technology. While Tyrant only seeks to dominate our world, AntiMatter wishes to destroy it.
Civil war on Praetoria is breaking out...and you need to stop it.
=========================================
Arc Name: Praetorian Earth: Civil War
Arc ID #: 167510
Length: Very Long
Morality: Heroic
Enemy groups: Praetorians
This was the arc that I've been wanting to make since I very first heard about the Mission Architect. I've always been a big proponent of trying to get the Praetorian storyline expanded and with this morning's announcement, it seems they have decided to revisit Praetoria.
This mission is loaded with twists and turns so you don't know who to trust once you step inside the mission except for your own teammates. Even during the final mission, you'll find a pleasant surprise.
This is also perhaps one of the toughest (if not the toughest) mission arc ever designed. If you feel that you're hero (or villain) can take it on solo, then by all means, go for it. I played it on my lvl 50 fire/fire blaster on challenge lvl 1 and came away with more debt than I ever did running on a J-Force Hard Core Day. I'd highly recommend a team of 4 or more if you're fragile.
So, if you feel that you're up to it, head on over and try the mission arc out. I sure would appreciate feedback.
Thanks!
