I love this.

Hope I can make it.

Let me check my schedule. I even have 1 arc published, but it needs work. Thanks for running this. I hope I can make it.
I'm busy until 2-3 PM eastern.
Will this be happening all afternoon long?

A huge "thank you" to everyone who came to this week's Ænvasion! We had more players show up than I expected and team 2 couldn't have survived without your gracious help. Hopefully our core group will have higher level alts here for our next event! I hope you all had as much fun as we did
Now, onto the recap:
Week 9's Ænvasion of Protector was punkadelic! Nearly 2 full teams of players showed up for a right good AE steampunk romp!
#136218 "Mechaneezer Scrooge" by @Mr Day

#336788 "The Steamworks Begin" by @Buster Brass
5 Mish, Heroic
#255713 "Urban Renewal" by @Djinniman
4 Mish, Heroic
This week I wanted to get back to something AE Storyteam does regularly: pick arcs from a topical theme. Seeing as how the Steampunk Booster was recently released, it was an opportunity I couldn't pass up to check out what kind of steampunk arcs I could find in AE. Out of about 20 tested arcs, I found 3 that stood out.Many thanks to the players of Protector for slugging it out with us...esp on that last mish! You get the NEVER SAY DIE award and my undying gratitude for not burning me on the spit! Thanks!
Mechaneezer Scrooge is a 1 mission action arc that expands the classic Christmas Carol story with a steampunk twist. The customs can be challenging on a full team, but the costumes, bios, and dialog make this an enjoyable quickie. MOST CHRISTMAS-Y
The Steamworks Begin is a very unique arc, in that it serves as a transition for an otherworldly steampunk hero's introduction to Paragon City and it's just a well detailed steampunk story! Spot on dialog, beautiful customs, great map selection, and well-balanced enemies (if not a bit heavy on end drain) made this one BEST OVERALL for the week! Best of all, it's designed for lowbies up to lvl 20, so very accessible to almost all players!
Our final arc, Urban Renewal, is one of those arcs that plays well solo, but not so much on a team. The story is much more of a traditional, canon type arc pitting your character against a unique branch of Nemesis troops.
The customs on this arc take full advantage of the Steampunk Booster and everyone agreed, they were gorgeous and had great bios. The problem is, on a large group they become waaaay overpowered with multiple MM mobs that heal each other and vengeance being tossed all around. Ouch. Aside from the unbalanced customs, there is a fun story, memorable characters and gorgeous enemies that mesh well with canon. Definitely worth a play with 1 or 2 buddies! BEST LOOKING CUSTOMS
Next Sunday (6/19/11): the Ænvasion! continues!! Join us on Freedom Server at the AE Building in Rikti War Zone at our regular time: 9am Pacific/noon Eastern. I'm thinking it may be time to run a Hunt for Hall of Fame week again! Remember, all levels and ATs are welcome, so feel free to make an alt and join the Ænvasion!
Craft your inventions in AE!!
Play "Crafter's Cafe" - Arc #487283. A 1 mission, NON-COMBAT AE arc with workable invention tables!
And a big round of applause for Backfire (who lead team 1) and Supafreak (team 2) !
Thanks, guys !
