My chums and I were having a chat the other day about how we'd all pretty much filled our slots of Defiant.
We were sad.
Then a bright spark said....
"Fella's, with the introduction of Global Chat and the Global Friends list we can quite happily play on Union now without being divorced from all our other chums!"
By golly we thought. He's right. So we tromped off to Union to start having fun. First we tried a Fairytale Toons SG (based on a concept called Snow White and the 7 Kheldian Dwarves), then we moved on to a Fruit and Veg based SG called 'the Allotment'.
But then on our third try we hit paydirt.
All 8 of us created MasterMinds. Mercenary and Robotic Masterminds. We created identical Military uniforms. We named our Toons after ranks and colours (I am for example Major Maroon!)
We created the "Mercenaries of Illuminati"
And the fun began.
I don't know how many of you have tried it, but get a full team of MM's and go missioning. We're all approaching level 20 now and it's a sight to behold.
Currently we have 4 pets each and our teams are now a small platoon of 8 alts and 32 pets. That's 40 combat ready units ready for action. As you can imagine the game spawns some pretty serious mobs to oppose us and the resulting battles are awesome.
It's hilarious and the levelling is EXTREME. 20 levels in about 3 to 4 days. The team rips through missions and I can count on one hand the number of team faceplants we've had. Debt disappears about 2 mins after you got it and you'll definitely find yourself laughing yourself stupid at the onscreen carnage.
You'll also find yourself inadverdantly roleplaying as you shout phrases like...
MAN DOWN
FIRE IN THE HOLE
MEDIC!!!!!
LAYING DOWN COVERING FIRE!!
etc.
If any of you fancy coming along and joining up, check out the link to the enrolment instructions for the toons on the link below
We've since widened the scope of the SG to incorporate other archetypes too, but are firmly keeping it in a very strictly realistic (to a point) military vein.
Blueside Level 50's.... Knightingale (Def), Rogue Elevenex (Blast), Lady Rogue (Scrap), Mr Infinity (Tank), Miss Infinity (Troller), Knight.Shade (WS), Knight.Bringer (PB) Redside Level 50's... Colonel Rogue (Brute), Sergeant Domino (Stalk), F411-OUT (Dom)

I think its the permissison issue again, we may need to repost it on a public part of the Plastic Forum.
