Tough times ahead...I am a security specialist

This was my first villain. Mercy Mercy, a stalker. A long time ago. He reformed, he is a stone tank now :-). Azr and friends made the VG, Death Brigade when i7 dropped. Since then there has been 5 new issues, the 6th, issue 13 is about to drop. I13 includes the potential change where you can convert base salvage into invention salvage. In anticipation of this, several SGs/VGs have been robbed, wiped clean by bad people invited into SG/VGs and given permissions.

Azr basically lets Electron Kid, my wife, and I run the base, along with a few others. I feel like we need to take care of our own. For the most part there are a dozen or so regulars playing in the Death Brigade, it is mainly alts in it atm.

You have one week to log on. Toons over 30 days old are gonna get the boot. I was gonna raise permissions to pull salvage, but decided not to change t0o much, I will not let terrorists ruin our freedoms in the base. The point of the game is to have fun. The devs made a stupid economy and it really is turning into a real life mess of an economy with real life affects such as theft. So the entry logs need to get clean in the Death Brigade. There are some alts I recognize and will not punt. But I don't know them all.

Log on. And join us, I really love the red side of this game.

PS. Az did you try my apple pie recipe I posted on the forums for you?

What does Mr. Turkey Say?


Gobble Gobble Gobble!

How would you like a chance to come kill your favorite PvPEC reps? Got a grudge against Ninja Havoc? Want to farm HH? Want to kick Azrhiaz's butt?

Join us for our Turkey Hunt!!!!!!

Details

Hunting Hours: Friday, November 21st @ 7:30 - 9:30 pst

Hunting Fields: Warburg

Game: "Turkeys" are the wonderful PvPEC Reps! HH, Azrhiaz (on Iduna) and Ninja Havoc!

Scoring: The hunter with the most kills at the end of the event will be the winner. Notice that kills are indicated by final blow, so beware of kill-stealers. No exceptions.

Prizes: A prize will be given to the player with the most kills. All turkeys will lay an egg and the winner will get to choose which egg he or she wishes.

About the Game (the targets...not the actual game):
- All turkeys have been genetically modified by Crey Industries.
- They have enhanced stealth, super speed and super jump.
- Turkeys will NEVER attack, only flee when in danger.
- Because of genome splicing with the bubblegum apes of New Zealand, turkeys cannot swim and will only be found on land.
- Turkeys will stop at regular intervals to graze (approx. every 5 mins for 30 seconds)
- Turkeys are constantly searching for a mate. When a turkey feels unthreatened, he/she will occasionally display his plumage (drop stealth), dance his mating walk (/e dance), and yell "Gobble Gobble Gobble." This can be a key time to strike!
- Turkeys generally prefer natural environments (forests, parks, grassy areas) over more urban areas (city streets, factories, etc)
- Turkeys have no natural healing powers and will not "rest", despite health level.
- When a turkey is killed, he will leave the veterinarian as soon as possible, regardless of health level.


Hunter Guidelines- Orange reflective vests are not required, but strongly recommended to avoid a "Cheney"
- Anything goes! Attacking your fellow hunters is not only allowed by encouraged! Just be sure you don't spend too much time fighting each other to let the turkeys get away.
- Buffing, Debuffing, Caging and even Healing of the turkeys is strategically permitted.
- Hunting parties are strongly encouraged.


I'd like to also give a big shout out to Megeara and to Deep for helping test the PvP TF! It was a lot of fun and I hope to have it up and running for the public soon!

Speaking of 13


I have reached my 13th 50!! That's 13 times more than Colder has! Hazbyn hit last week and today, Britney Blades dinged the big five-oh. She's my first 50 melee heroside too!

Alright ya'll, we need to schedule a base raid before 13 hits since they will be turning that feature off. They apparently broke the pathing issue on items and couldn't be bothered to fix it. PvP will also be a broken, new ball of wax so this will be the last time you'll know how your powers work in PvP.

Lucky 13

Or "Not Quite So Lucky As The Devs Might Have Thought..."

Well, I13 Open Beta has descended like a bolt from on high. And just about blew the boards in half.

I'd link the forums but my code-fu is actually pretty weak.

Highlights include:

The merit system replacing recipe drops for Task and Strikeforces. They would also scale per the supposed time invested in the endeavor. I. E. no more speedy Katies or 10 minute Eden Trials.

The PvP mechanics have been completely overhauled. The jury is still fighting over the result. The definition of good or bad seems to be related to how much PvP-ing you actually do. I'd really like to hear Da Boss's take on it.

A lot of streamlineing is taking place. Badges can be sorted now by a number of topics. Oh, and masterminds can buff an entire load of minions with only two hits. That and the Pain Domination powerset almost makes me want to try another MM.

Almost.

Thoughts?

Help Wanted

I need some folks to help me run a new PvP event: the PvP Taskforce! This is a SF created by me that revolves around PvP! I need some hero types to help work it. You can opt to do a single mission or more than one. Our test run of it will be on Sunday, November 16th at 7pm pacific. It will consist of 8 missions and currently I need people on Mission One, Two, Three, Four and Six. If you want to sign up for the first mission, you can be either hero or villain and it will run for approximately 20 minutes. Might be a good one for you East Coasters. Hit me up if interested and I'll give you more information!
