Personal Stories + Trials = Brass Monday?
I think its an interesting idea ... it would keep history in tact and allow us to play out those events.
But if they would go to go to the effort of making the Brass Monday Trial, I would want to use my own character and not the Pleistocene-era Phalanx members. Alternate history FTW!
Or ... who's to say that my hero wasn't there anyway, fighting along side the Phalanx? Hmm ...
American Dawg, Starblaze, Neanderthal Joe, Shining Dawn, Tokamak Dragon, Stinger Incarnate, Burning Tyger, Dover Tornado, Big Roach, Dark Paladin, Archmage Wylde, Kings Row Hornet, Prancing Deer
Avogadro, Science Lord
Edgar Nightcraft, Doc Cicada, Chupa Macabre, Dr Forchtenstein, Blood Shrew
Ever since Ouro was added to the game, there have been requests for a Brass Monday mission/tf/trial/something, where players would travel back in time to participate in this pivotal moment of CoH history. With the addition of the personal story and APB mechanics, it occurred to me that it would be possible to create a trial where players actually took the role of the Freedom Phalanx of the time and fought back against Nemesis' army.
So, I was curious about what people thought of this idea? Something you'd like to play/meh/horrible idea? |
Samuel_Tow is the only poster that makes me want to punch him in the head more often when I'm agreeing with him than when I'm disagreeing with him.

I've been suggesting something along these lines ever since Guild Wars created their historical mission pack. I'd buy it, especially if there interesting rewards.
The Summer Blockbuster event could always be expanded in the future to include a "movie" version of Brass Monday.

I remember doing Brass Monday AE Missions, a couple of years back. I think there were 3 at that time, and 2 were pretty good.
In the room the women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo.
Thrill as you watch them fight in the war! Cheer as Marcus gains the power of the Well! Sit there uncomfortably as Marcus and Stephan's kiss goes into its third minute!

This is completely irrelevant to the topic, but am I the only one who immediately thinks of a certain Beastie Boys song when I read the phrase, "Brass Monday?"
