I did think that the release of the box and i14 would not match, it makes more sense to get I14 live, get rid of any major unexpected bugs and THEN release the box, makes for things looking better to any new players.
Of course, getting the boxes on the shelves in the EU would be a nice start as well.....
We built this city on Rock and Roll!
I'll put my inf on 5th of April.
My main toons on Union:

My arc:
ID 98789, What once was, will be again.

Good point about the 5th anniversary date. Hmm... Timing is REALLY tight, isn't it?
I have strong doubts about i15 coming out on the anniversary date... By now, we'd have heard some concrete details about it if so... They've probably just got some kind of game event in mind for that instead, and save i15 for around June time, when CO is due to launch.

As I14 is almost totally the MA, that means the devs who work on powers, animations, zones, text and so on, would have had very little to do once they'd done the MA buildings, so they could also have been doing quite a bit of work on I15 too.

May 5th is a Tuesday 
5th day of the 5th month for the 5th anniversay - possibly featuring a return of the 5th Column

Which is quite possibly why I said May, and not April

Oh sorry, I meant the 7th of April. My calendar accidentally skipped April and I was looking at the 5th of May... Hmm.. or could this be an omen!?!

An omen of 5th Column invasion spawns with those giant Nazi war robots stomping all over the city?

But did you know, that in several editions of the oxford dictionary, they spelt 'persuaded' wrong? Quite a mistake!

And possibly a revamped Boomtown - maybe co-op - with the main zone storyline being the 5th Column fighting the Council there, while searching for the old Freedom Phalanx base where the Reichsman is still buried in suspended animation
It's also possible that a new Boomtown TF would have you racing to try and stop the 5th from reviving the Reichsman, with him as the last mission AV

I like the way you're thinking GG

I should also point out that the giant stomping Nazi war robots would move very slowly, with a special mechanical walk animation, and each footstep would cause the screen shake effect

if they'd do that AND shout "Scanning Area!" I would be a bit confused asto which game I'm currently playing.
I don't think they'd say anything - they'd just make a loud clanking and crashing noise as they went

Mmmnn, Giant stomping Nazi war robots. If it the The Fifth for the Fifth anniversary I hope the Devs do/commission a retro-vintage FMV trailer (like the trailers we used to have) before cutting to Modern-day Paragon and in-game Nazi-stompage.

Issue 14 is all about the Mission Architect. Issue 15 will be centered around the Fifth... Anniversary of City of Heroes.

So least we know now what your first created arc on the MA is going to be (seriously though it does sound very good and fits the lore of the game so would defo get a thumbs up from me)

Drops his jaw. Haven't heared of the authors but they're awesome animators and the rendering is flawless.
Not to mention all the Star Wars references...
Play fair GR don't stamp out wild speculation - it is all that is getting some of us through boring days at work lol
