New Interview With War Witch


Agent White

Saw this on the CoH Facebook thread...

Not a lot of new info... EXCEPT THIS:

"Sure! For the 8th Anniversary we gave away the Statesman Salute rewards to pay homage to a great hero, there will also be a new invasion involving the Nemesis (it’s a Nemesis Plot!) who will take over Paragon City and the Rogue Isles."

A Nemesis invasion???? Snipers everywhere, swarms of Jaegers in AP? I like!

I hope the event still takes place on the 28th. Saturday's a great day for an event for players. Maybe not so much for the Developers, but..

On a good Note.... I LOVE this- I always wanted a Oro TF where you fight during Brass Monday, this will suffice for now

I can't help but notice how many times War Witch Task Force was repeated.

D'oh! I'd wager you're right, then. Which means the event is probably next Tuesday. Have fun at the summit!

Question is, would Mender Silos let you travel back in time and fight Lord Nemesis?

He does now in any of the Founder's Nemesis arcs.

Very easy answer- someone or something tampered with the time stream and Nemy won Brass Monday.. you need to go back and set things right

All part of Nemesis's errrr Silos's plot!

Why would we limit ourselves to only one day of plotting?

There's a whole month of Anniversary to celebrate .

I just want to know if mind-control railroads are involved. No one ever seems to remember the Nemesis railroad plot.

Or is that all of them?

So is there an actual reason Nemesis forces are invading or is this just the devs flipping a switch for fun...not that I mind because NEMESIS PONY APOCALYPSE IS AWESOME!!!!

It's just their way of letting off steam.

Actually at the end of the arc it's revealed that even though Nemesis himself thought the plan was a 'good idea' but he has this thing where he decides that he wants people to genuinely adore/fear him into submission and mind control was too easy.

The remaining sections of railroad were removed and replaced IIRC since old Nemmy didn't give two figs about them in the end.

I remember the story. The concept just amuses me so much that I have to reference it occasionally.

Good news: I've already written a full-on War Witch TF. (And made a trailer for it, too.)

Bad news: Until they fix the AE, no one gets to play it.

I thought the reference to the Battalion was interesting. How long have we known about them? Four, five years?

You missed something else:

"Villains, already established in the Rogue Isles, are growing a little restless under the thumb of Arachnos and so they’re starting to rebel to form their own group and if I were a name-dropping type, I might mention Captain Castillo and Odysseus actually working with you."

Captain Castillo confirmed for SSA #2? BEST SSA EVER.
