@Mindshadow
Arc Name: Coulrophobia (Fear of Clowns)
Arc ID: 1178
Author: Mental Maden
Description: Positron hates clowns, help the guy out! A new troupe of creepy clowns seem to be crowding in on the Carnivals territory.
Difficulty: It's not too bad but there are some tougher bosses in the last two missions.
Length: Very Long (per ingame description) the first 4 missions can be done in 30 minutes or so, depending on players preferred speed. The last mission has more objectives and a couple of tough baddies, but its a story about clowns, so its just some good clowny....creepy fun. Nothing too difficult. On heroic we breezed through it at a crisp clip, as you ramp up the levels it can be more of a challenge but nothing impossible. Enjoy!
And yes, there are mimes......with caltrops.

This is my announcement post for the first in a three-arc "maxi-arc" I'm writing as my first foray into fiction in nearly half a decade.
If anyone here played Planetside back in the early 2000s, they might remember my "Turg Fiction" short story series, culminating with the novella "Dissection". Well, it's been five years, and I've been wanting to put quill to ink for a while now. Mission Architect seems like a perfect way to do that.
I crave feedback! Let me know what works and what doesn't! I have the next two arcs already sketched out but unwritten, but I'm really curious to know how well I can tell a a qualified story through a game medium and still retain the emotional impact I'm looking for!
I hope you like my published offering. Please review my arc, enjoy, and tell me what you think.
