Thanks Gill, we had a blast too! Here's the recap for those that missed out:

13 weeks ago the AE Storyteam set out on a mission: to explore strange new servers and seek out new AE players & enthusiasts! This week, the team reached its first major milestone by completing its tour of every English speaking server. Union was our 1st cycle's final Ænvasion target and we met a good crowd of mates to play with. We fit 2 arcs into today's session:

#204942 "Chris Jenkins: Attorney at Law" by @Jophiel
1 mish/Heroic


#1166 "Taking Flight" by @Morgenstern COH
4 mish/Heroic


Honorable Mention: (ran out of time to play)
#379668 "W is for Vengeance x2" by @Khonshu
5 mish/Heroic

For today's arcs I wanted to spotlight stories that feature less-explored characters from the rich CoH lore. We all know who Azuria & Fusionette are and they get a lot of attention, both in-game and in AE. But there's a lot of other relatively unused characters out there that have interesting stories to tell. With the magic of AE, they finally get that chance!

Chris Jenkins: Attorney at Law has been a fixture of CoH lore since launch. His billboards plastered all over Paragon City; it's a wonder it took an AE arc to finally give him his day in the sun.

This lowbie-friendly, 1 mission arc explores what would happen if some of Paragon's more unscrupulous crowd discovered Chris' services and what kind of direct effect that could have on your hero. There's a lot of canon-related and meta-humor in this arc and it's fast, fun action for any size team. BEST OVERALL & BEST SANDWICH!

Taking Flight expands on the character of Tony Kord. Maybe you remember him from the Clockwork vs Skulls badge mission for "Negotiator." Or maybe you've been to the helipad atop Kord Industries in Kings Row. Well, this time Tony has a problem only your hero can fix and it's going to take more than words to "negotiate" a solution!

Along the way you'll witness & influence the birth of new hero and maybe learn a secret or 2 about Tony Kord you never imagined before!

Note: I've played this mission multiple times as a solo hero and never had a problem. But it was very difficult to complete on a full, mid-level team. It is just not balanced well for a team setting so I suggest you run it solo or duo.

The story, dialog, details and custom heroes are a real treat. It's a shame that it's not balanced for teams, as it is a fun and touching origin story which you don't find often in AE. BEST CUSTOMS & BEST SOLO EXPERIENCE
Well, that wraps up cycle 1 of our Ænvasion! Thank you again to the players of Union for being gracious hosts and tackling the challenge we put before you The AE Storyteam is going to take a couple weeks off of Ænvading as we prepare cycle 2. But fret not, we shall return!!

Next Sunday (7/17/11): the AE Storyteam will meet for a regular session on back-up home server #1: Liberty. Anyone wanting to join the AE Storyteam, you'll find us in the AE Building in Rikti War Zone at our regular time: 9am Pacific/noon Eastern/5pm BST. New members are always welcome.
