: What units to you expect to shine on what levels? You've
: already mentioned me on Into The Breach (which works
: great, don't even need Jari since the guards don't pay
: any attention; but I know that's just because of the
: fux0red scripting), Nick on The Baron (and you would
: do good there too, blocking enemies in with your
: barriers), MM is on Gonen's Bridge just to show off
: how buff he is (and I thought he was hillarious until
: he added all those damn pimp sounds), and you on The
: Great Library. But who stars on Beyond the Cloudspine,
: Gate of Storms, Landing at White Falls, and Through
: the Ermine? I imagine Blackhand would KIK some ass on
: Gate of Storms, as would WW, and (who?) the bre'Unor
: would blend in on Through The Ermine. But Beyond the
: Cloudspine and Landing at White Falls? And where does
: WW star?
*Everyone's* on every level in here, so WW and MM and Blackhand and Ducky (the non-specialized guys) have multiple opportunities to strut their stuff. I wanted to do Through The Ermine just to give Tleilaxu's bre'Unor a chance to bind (if he decides to be able to bind animals like I suggested), so I figured I'd do the whole story arc so we can just play through.
: WW will just fireball everyone's ass, except mine because
: I have a force-field, so he'll have to come in and
: hack me to death in person. That is, if I don't
: berserk him in the middle of battle first, getting him
: killed by Blackhand or someone in melee.
He plays like he's berserk anyway (the unit, not WW himself), so I doubt this would have much effect. Can't fireball me, though; I'm too fast! He'd probably get off a lucky shot eventually, though. Anyway, whoever's the last man standing dies when Nick pops into visibility and dispatches them with a couple of venomous bites. :-)
: And you can just throw up a ring of barriers to retreat
: into and call it a stalemate (unles it's LMOTH or KOTH
: or Bacon, in which case if you've got the flag or ball
: in your little impenetrable ring, you win). Or... can
: projectiles pass through your barriers?
Yep--unless your field is there to deflect them. Let our powers combine, Forrest!
: I predict that MM will be driven insane by his own
: pimpin' sounds and commit suicide with a well-placed
: Evil Squirrel of Deth.
Actually, he'll probably die from the detonation of a dying Ho (stay far, far away from those girls in battle).
: Oh yeah, I like Forrest Mk. IV, but could you maybe
: change his spelling to "Forrest" and his
: names to "Pfhorrest", "p4st",
: "p4est", "4st", "4est",
: "Forrest of B.org", "Geek of All
: Trades", "Owner of the Universe", and
: "The Maintainer"?
Will do.
: I think this is a good naming scheme, in the tradition of
: Myth II Fallen Lords; your common name as your
: spelling, and your other names as your names. For
: example, The Deceiver, whose spelling is The Deceiver
: and whose names are Myrdred and Source of the 500
: Poisons.
Good point--I just switched my name and spelling.
: I predict that I will effortlessly saunter through almost
: all the levels, but he of little actual use except on
: Breach and Baron. And Great Library. And Ermine. Ok, I
: could be pretty usefull maybe :)
: So are you gonna do the mini-TRO with Jacki-Chan's
: Kung-Fu Action Punching and Kicking?
Yup--no specials yet, but if Blackhand shows any interest I might add the KIK 2 TENESE.
: Mine's complete except for the minor changes above. I
: likey.
Gotcha. I wasn't actually going to have our guys vulnerable to berserking, but it now occurs to me that it's necessary; otherwise you've got an incredibly cheap mass heal to use on us. And that's Tleil's job.
