It's the first arc in the Power Loyalist storyline. The mission in particular is the "final round" of your initiation into Praetor White's group of "Top Dogs."

In continuing honor of this sense of humor, I currently have a tank on Defiant called "a bird-brained hero".


I've considered making another toon along the same lines. Ideas currently running around in my head are: "a clerical error", "an accounting error" and "a lack of funds".


Throwing darts at the board to see if something sticks.....

Come show your resolve and fight my brute!

As the player of "a small adorable fox", I'm surprised no one mentioned the most infamous video game villain of all time. Dysentery. Clean, filtered water for whoever gets the reference.

Oregon Trail ?
I have not actually played it* but it is mentioned surprisingly often on the internet.





* I have played the soviet union "version", but it was probably different in many details

Yup! Have your filtered water!

The joke is that every third-grader who played it (it was new when I was around that age) eventually had their party die of dysentery. The Facebook version is nothing like it.

Awesome.

This thread makes me wish I had stuck an "A" in front of my Willpower tank's name, "Regular Joe".

My son made a Stone tanker this weekend and named it "Dirt for Brains". We ran through Praetoria and the dialog was killing me.

I have a few, but the one character I made specifically to see her name in NPC chat was my Fire/Kin . . . "You Bawdy Bimbo"

So I get lines like, "You Bawdy Bimbo, you saved me!"


LOCAL MAN! The most famous hero of all. There are more newspaper stories about me than anyone else. "Local Man wins Medal of Honor." "Local Man opens Animal Shelter." "Local Man Charged with..." (Um, forget about that one.)
