.... kill it with fire. :P
Actually as long as you put in the description that the last mission is a "go in loaded for bear" situation, you should be OK.
"City of Heroes. April 27, 2004 - August 31, 2012. Obliterated not with a weapon of mass destruction, not by an all-powerful supervillain... but by a cold-hearted and cowardly corporate suck-up."
Definitely add a warning to the description.
If we were supposed to be able to create Task Forces, they would let us create Task Forces. You might want to try soloing it with your Brute. If you can do it, call it a challenge and accept that some people will try it with an Ice/FF controller anyway, and complain that it's too hard. If you can't, you might want to consider toning it down.

I'd suggest working "Challenge" into that last mission description somehow. That's a keyword for loonie players who love that kind of thing, you'll attract them in droves. And it's a warning to people NOT to use their Ice/FF controllers.
Edit/PS: When my brute gets high enough I might try it. She's a baby brute right now.

Governments have fallen to the power of social media. Gaming companies can too.
I left the MA system when they added those horrendous ranged attacks to the melee sets, because that completely destroyed some of my arcs that I made. I have however been unable to resist the urge to start making stuff again. So I created a Task Force. Let me get right down to it.
Not only are all the normal spots populated by ACMs, but there are also 31 Patrols of them. I want these caves to be extremely dangerous.
My last mission is quite the doozie. It is supposed to be the place my Evil Villain retreats to. I would like some feedback from more experienced MArc designers if my last mission is insane to the point of driving anyone who wants to play my MArc away, or just insane enough to be extremely fun.
[u]Here's the lowdown[u]:
<ul type="square">[*]First of all the map is a cave map, however it is one of those wide caves (Think The Hollows style) which makes it a little better.
[*]Secondly this is the place the Villain hides in so the caves are populated by a special custom group. Except for the Main Villain and the group surrounding him, the caves are filled with Arachnos Cruise Missiles. Am I Insane yet?
[*]Last but not least comes the Villain himself. He's not too frightening (Broadsword/Psionic Assault) however his surrounding group is all Nemisis Lieutenants. Multiple application of Vengeance on an Arch-Villain? Yummy! And if that wasn't enough I have three ambushes of Nemisis Lieutenants that come restore his Vengeance at 3/4, 1/2, and 1/4 health.[/list]I completed this mission with my IOed out SS/Stone Brute and Sonic/Kin Corrupter with no deaths, however since I knew the ins and outs of that mission it wasn't all that difficult.
So what's the verdict? Will it drive people away, or is it a fun type of mission? If the description isn't enough I posted just the last mission by itself (ID# 200437). If you want the whole Task Force to understand the story I also posted that, (ID# 200438) but I have only went over it once. There may be a couple typos here and there.
