Militia Thursdays

((IC)) If anyone put down a sandwich then turned around, felt a gust a of wind and then turned around to see their sandwich gone.... My bad... accelerated metabolism and all hehe

Can someone refresh my memory - is it 7:00 or 7:30 meet up?

Id suggest we have a running team fairly quickly and reorganise as people log on.

I reckon meet from 7 but be out on the streets by 7:30. Gives people a nice window to get in on IMHO.

Sounds good

Just a reminder, I won't be on tonight due to birthday-things, so have good evening without Hawkshaw's incessant complaining.

happy birthday max!

Yeah, Happy Birthday dude. Hope you have a good one.

What? Max hits the big 40? Woah!

*giggles* Happy B.day dude!

Happy birthday Max!
Not sure if I'm joining tonight but I might

Happy birthday Max

May be a little delayed today due to RW (Real Wife) Commitments

Happy Birthday mate!

So by 7.30 Derek has overslept again =) Is that 7.30 GMT? or GMT-summertime whatever that is called. I'm on summertime and GMT+1 (Paris, Stockholm, et.c.) so in my time that should be 8.30 right? Am I confusing you? good Now you now how I feel

I'll be there however I put my kid to sleep....eh.... bed, at 8(my time) and that usually takes a while as he aint to keen on the whole sleeping business. But Derek'll catch up if that is the case.

See you in an hour, more or less...

Thanks all for great session... Really great stuff and dynamics developing, especially between some of the 'old guard

Two observations / suggestions:

Levels are getting a bit diverse (shifty glare at Angel )... can we set a level limit of 17 and let people catch up?

We are a very scrapper heavy SG - we have only one tank, and few defenders / tanks (ironic as when the militia started there were concerns about it being damage-light ). It might be worth looking into this and recruiting - particularly a tank (Unit 29's addition made playing much easier!)

Sterling stuff! I love playing FC!

Cracking night once again (although now I've got to think of a plot for 29 ), loads of fun as usual and I agree, there's a nice dynamic in the team forming. We've had a few people interested in the Militia so maybe we can hint them towards rolling a tank if they want to join? Answers on a postcard as usual...

Im really sorry i haven't shown up these three weeks, RL stuff keeps getting in the way! If anyone wants to do a team on tuesday like we used to ill be happy to join, as it will give me a chance to catch up. I will do my best for next thursday but if i can't i might drop out as i will be to far behind in the plot

Hi all,

First a belated happy birthday to Max.

Second, thanks for a great session last night and sorry again about "forcing the direction" of events due to Angel's unexpected contraction of the Vahz plague just before the session started.

Adjusting levels seems like a good idea, so apart from a prospective shopping session with Sabrina and an evening out to go and hear Amber sing, I promise to keep Angel quarantined until next week

Sabrina would love to go shopping some more!

Shame I had to leave early yesterday.. needed to bonus xp.

Anyway, I'd hate to break the plot without first establishing it fully, but Sabrina's in serious trouble..

Looking over my play-style.. I'm gonna roll a tank!

This is most certainly not good-bye from the swordswoman.. just a hello from the stone-monster.

Or at least thats the story I'm thinking of so far.. any objections? Can I roll a tank?

Hey Pious. I also have an idea for a tank. why don't we make a tank each. You'll want to play almost fulltime with yours as I understand it. But I can have mine as kind off a backup if we some day should lack a tank. +if we start 'em togehter levelinng will be a bit faster than soloing.

Any day of the week is fine by me (except thursdays ofcourse) so set a day or two this week and we can hardcore some and catch up a little. Two is better than one...

Objections from you Pious? Objections from anyone else?

I may be around on Wednesday next week for a few hours but RL will be keeping me away for a little. It would be a shame to lose Dragonfly, I'm getting to like her gung ho attitude but by all means, the more interesting characters the better. Unit 29 can remain on standby for when we need him although he can be quite hillarious to play.

As for people dropping behind, I wouldn't worry about it too much. We don't seem to have an overarching plot at the moment so absence doesn't mean having to drop out, that's what sidekicking is for. Besides, the team's got a great buzz, so it's a shame when someone feels they have to go. But then again, change is the great constant.

That and taxes.

It seems like a good idea to have some extra tankers in the team - I just hope it won't mean goodbye to any of the existing characters, but more be a case of players switching a bit

Also, I certainly agree that nobody should leave out of fear of "falling behind" - it should be easy to help Hyper/Blitz or anyone else missing out a few times to catch up.

Finally, since some of you may be starting up some new characters, would it be possible that I could tag along with another scrapper? I know that there's no shortage of scrappers at the moment, but this is a character tied into my COV IC character, and I think it would be of help for the COV plot (poorly explained, but I'm afraid to provide too many spoilers).

She's currently at level 2 and would love to give the new tankers a hand

Derek will be joining you as much as usual unless we are short of Tanks. Just gonna keep my Tank as a spare member. Maybe even doing non-rp missions to keep up with the rest if the thursday is played with Derek, and the other way around of course. I think I'll try to keep Derek and the Tank on the same level.

*Minutes later in the room dedicated for his computers Mikael (yup, that's my RL-name) is just finished building a new toon*

I just created my Tank so if Pious is up for a little newbie-toon get-together I say, name a day... I'm available.

His name is Drummond and he's an old friend of Derek. I'll write a little rp-intro in the militia thread if accepting him into the SG becomes reality.

Sounds great

I finally got my new PC installed today, and now all that remains is to install COX and download the patches when I get back home tonight.

Depending on how long that takes, I should be up and going and in game around Saturday evening, Sunday afternoon, and/or Tuesday if that would suit you (Monday is COV IC team-up). My new toon's name translates into "Lady Cobra" (which is her in-game name). I hope to see the new Tankers around.

I kinda power leveled my tank. He's heading for level 9 at the mo. Name is Mer'de, made him some hours ago.

Hopefully tonight, we can setup the SG invites and team up.

I'm off to post on the Militia thread. See ya in-game!

Well then. I guess it's Drummond and Lady Cobra having some catching up to do. I'm free all evenings unless something IRL comes up which it shouldn't. Send me a PM or post here when you've got your cpu up and running. I usually check the forums a couple of times a day.

I'll level my Tank to lv2 so we start off equal.

See you

Great - I will keep an eye out,

Should we assume IC-wise that these new "reserve"-members also got a letter asking them to join the Militia?

ye. lets.

i'll be back in-game in a short while if anyone wants to join Mer'de
