Oh! Crap! I totally forgot:
My girlfriend didn't have any pockets in her dress, so she had me hold on to her costume code card for her. What I didn't realize was, the cards don't have anything on them to tell you what they are. o_o
I've got one with Tyrant and one with Desdemona. How can we determine which is which? Mine was a Praetorian Clockwork card and hers was a Knives of Artemis card.

As Paragon said, ComicCon 2009 is Desdemona.
I'll assume HeroCon 2009 was Tyrant.
I'm with JazMan...I am not overwhelmed with GR but I am also not disappointed. The fact that I have to pay for the powersets that people have asked for so long irritates me but meh they need money I guess.
Kin Melee doesnt really look like a melee power...looks more like Chi Blast. I want to see more details on Elec Control, what can It do that a well slotted Elec Blast/Elec Manipulation/Elec Mastery Blaster cant do?
I haven't pre-purchased GR yet and I might wait till July since I don't feel like going thrugh the flaming hoops to purchase it but I am considering it.
I strongly think that this is the final news on GR and the expansion is finally fleshed out:
--4 new zones
--4 new powersets
--Going Rogue System
--i19 sneak preview (Incarnates)
--4 new NPC Factions
If there were more news bits before it goes Closed Beta for F&F, I will be shocked. As it stands, I am underwhelmed...

From the screenshot previews I'm going to say Electric Imps. Also, being able to pair it with a secondary like Storm Summoning or Radiation. *shrugs*

I may be wrong, I just checked Paragon wiki and Elec/Elec/Elec Blasters get:
- http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Electrical_Blast
- http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Electricity_Manipulation
- http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Electrical_Mastery
I would take a blaster to redside and just be happy. We still don't know how the APP/EPP will work so meh

Don't know if anyone posted it but Posi made an interesting comment during the panel about how once you switch sides you can use whatever Epic set it has. So Redeemed Villains could get APPs, and Fallen Heroes could get Patron sets. Of course, he got a huge facepalm from the Marketing guy for that, so who knows if that's accurate. |

There was a marketing guy there? Did ye put him into a giant wickerman frame and sacrifice him to the ancient and primordial gods?
Hmmmm. A Fire/Rad controller with Soul Drain. Hmmmm.

He sat in the front row so if the devs went off script he could fire a tranquilizer dart to pacify them. |

Hearing that, I might just take my Mind/Psi blue and back for World of Confusion and Psi Tornado...think of it as " I went to paragon City and all I got was these two awesome powers" kinda deal.
As for reds getting blue APP, how do they plan on working with the fact that as a dom we get some of the blue APP in our Dom secondaries?
If they are going to treat EPP/APP as they are treating the SG's and location, being a rogue/vigilante is favorable to being a blue or a red. If I can take from both the APP/EPP pools then maybe sign me up for GR.
Too much is still not mentioned for my choice to get GR...I need to know everything that I am getting...this isnt like CoV and how come no devs use the name CoV and even more how come when they refer to both games they use CoH not "City of" games.
I may be wrong but you can side switch HEATS/VEATS, you cant just start them in Praetoria so how will this work for SoA that went blue? I can see a large SoA SG aimed at the downfall of Arachnos.

He didn't say whether you could keep your old Epics when you switched, so your idea may not work.|

My girlfriend loves hers and brought it to work to display on her desk/office at Boston University.
No kids here (yet), but when I hung mine off a handle of my own desk, my cat went crazy for it. haha
My daughter loves the necklace... and the PAX scarf.

I was really bad at pool. Where you standing in front of the devs during the raffle? I was in the middle of a bunch of Justice folks and probably the tallest person there.

Naw, during the raffle I was over by the restrooms dusting off a drink and wolfing down some snacks while going 'Ewww' at the autographed comics and 'Awww' when the hardware all went elsewhere. XD

I had fun asking about Marketing Ninjas for Ninja MMs. Also winning a comicbook.
