So Jae, Hav, I have an idea to get Leon into the story AND make things interesting. Right now Raiders and Rampage need to get to the space port, and you guys are currently looking for a distraction.

I'm assuming since you went undercover and HC hasn't established radio contact with you guys, that maybe they would be a little worried and send another NPC squad or two down to wreck the place.

So my idea is this: High Command thinks you guys have failed the mission (since there's nothing major going on in the city and a lack of radio contact.) so that prompts them to get another two squads ready. I could be IN one of those squads, and once we get into the city we can wreak havock (lol). While we're banging the city up and trying to complete the mission, you guys can take advantage of the sudden distraction and get to the spaceport yourselves.

Eventually my NPC squad could die and by some slip of luck, I could run into you guys. Now it sounds a little crazy, I know, but its also the most realistic way of getting Leon in and it also makes sense. The taking of this space port is important, and I figured since HC can't get into contact with you guys, they'd assume you've been compromised or something and send another two squads in, or just one depending on how you feel about the whole idea.

Plus, while we're battling it out, it gives Raiders and Rampage the perfect opportunity to get to the space port.

Lemme know what you think.

I like your idea a lot, Leon. But it just wouldn't work well with where the story is right now. That being said, I agree with Aeos. You can be on the inside of the city and suddenly be all like, 'Well hey those look like the cats I was sent pictures of.' I mean hell, Jae has a green star tattooed on her left cheek bone. Lol.

Anyways.

Lets go with Leon being an inside man. It works better, and I don't feel like getting yelled at for brining in another NPC squad. Lol.

If you're not okay with that and an edited version of your first idea, let us know asap. Because we are falling behind in writing again.

Okie dokes. Posting

Okay, and I'm posting next

Done

Hi guys, I don't think I'll be of much use. Unless energy and muses returns to me. I'm stuck with baby-sitting my sister, and well, Hav you understand I'm working on some HTML to get my mind of things so I'm around on IRC,

schools done on friday for the winter break

Hey guys, I'm not gonna be too active the next couple of days because I'm going to Jacksonville. Expect to see a post from me on tues or wed :/ Sorry guys I really am.

AND NO! I'M NOT GONNA DISAPEAR LIKE I ALWAYS DO!

So its Friday and Beta and Grahim have reported. Is that it? Anyone else care to check in. Anyone there? Hello?

Personal Notes:

Well as you can see, many of us have been on leave or will be going on leave. Karash is going into reserves and Aeos will be gone probably for the rest of the HSC. So if we still intend to win this its time for those of us still here to step it up a bit.


That's it.

RAIDERS, you are  DISMISSED!

PHASE II

Phase II is up and ready to go. Feel free to get the posting on. Our obectives are hizzere:

OOC:

Your objective is to capture the headquarters of Ferris Genetics. This is one of the larger companies based off of Arkania, and their influence is considerable. By capturing the Joint-Chiefs of this corporation, Joel and Jeremi Ferris, we can ensure that the Ferris Genetics will hand over its holdings to us peacefully.

You will be joined by an additional Stormtrooper company and a regiment of Army troopers, all under the command of Major Tara Oulith, a Stormtrooper herself.

The city has been roused. You will face thousands of angry Arkanians, civil police forces, and militia. Show no mercy. Teach them the cost of resistance, but leave the city itself intact.

Opposing Forces in each city include:

2,000 Militia
4,000 civil service police forces

So we are still in the trade city, we are back in snowtrooper gear. First, we need to meet up with Major Oulith (anyone interested in doing a wiki for the lady?) then we will move with her company (about 48 Stormtroopers and 2,304 regular army troopers) to the headquarters for Ferris Genetics.

You should be encountering police and militia patrols constantly not to mention frightened locals and visitors that should be running about like crazy people.


I know this is a crazy week for all of us. I myself am leaving in a few hours to go to my in-laws for the holidays. All I can say is do what you can. I promise to do my best to sign on once a day and do at least one thing (a post, game, wiki or graphic). Just do your best but family obviously comes a far first to VE. Have some fun with this Phase you guys, I know how much you like to kidnap unsuspecting citizens

Take care guys!

Guys I have limited internet access up here in Jacksonville but I should have a steady connection coming in sometime this week. I'll make sure to get a post out once I get more then an hour on the comp.

Current State of Affairs


Okay people, Christmas is over and many of you were supposed to be returning around now. But I wanted to make sure I had my facts straight.

Officially on Official Leave

Aeos
Grahim
Demented
Decembrist

Were on Leave and should be back

Brightstar
Leon

Theoretically should be here somewhere

Havock
Starfruit
Njall
Beta


Now that's everyone. If I'm mistaken about your status, let me know. If your around, drop me a line and let me know whats going on, nobody has posted in about 4 days and I'm getting a tad concerned. (granted I've been not feeling my best since Christmas, so that's my excuse, but I'm going to post on the Ball today).

Speaking of lets not forget that now you can post on the Ball

Update on my status:

Laptop is still busted. Sony had to send it to wherever they do repairs and as of last week it will be 12-14 business days until I have it back. That means that realistically speaking I will not be much of a presence here. I do have my desktop, but I am by no means confining myself to my room for the duration of my vacation from school, so I won't have computer access wherever I go. I apologize deeply for such an abrupt departure. I should be back in full action in about 2 weeks, if not sooner.

I'll pop in every now and then. I feel personally responsible for bringing such a poor performance to RAIDERS for the HSC, right when I was picking it up the worst happens. I'll try not to disappoint again (at least without warning).

Take it easy, folks.

I'm gonna post at least once more before HSC ends, can't say when though.
