These foot soldiers are stronger than the normal PR foot soldier and _will_ kick your ass unmorphed, and they _will_ give you a run for your money even when you are morphed.

In other news, working on the main OOC right now. Still a ways to go. I'll be able to dedicate more time to it when I'm not at work.




On one hand I'm happy the OOC is coming, but... dude, I'm just not seeing how the Rangers survive longer than a week. Every fight's gonna be like,



I'll have faith that Pro has a good plan for this.

GOOD LUCK GENTS!

@KoukiYeah I thought I was the only one who read that and thought the Rangers are freaking SCREWED. I know they're meant to be stronger than the average goon but even the average goons could overwhelm a ranger if they're oppressive in their assault. We're straight up skipping Bug Catchers and Youngsters in Viridian Forest and going straight to the motherfucking Gym Leader without leveling. With CHARMANDER. WITHOUT Metal Claw.

So the suits ain't much of a boon. I guess it'll be straight hit and run tactics for a while. Not every fight can be won with brute force, and hit and run can still develop the team's capabilities. Billy started out lame but ended up being a beast once he put the time into training and gathering experience. So I think it's a slow climb from here and, hopefully, no one dies in the first week xD

Imma trust Pro to not kill you guys though.

Geez, so much negativity. And I didn't even get to the part about you not starting with any zords. :P Seriously guys, don't worry that much. It's an uphill battle to be sure, and it's meant to be a big challenge, but you're liberating an entire planet that doesn't want to be liberated. Nobody said this was going to be easy. ;D

Just as the rangers' mentor will be able to steal resources from Galatec to improve them and continue the assault, the villain (who is not the top of the food chain but the "regional manager") will be subjected to corporate pressures and scrutiny from the Board of Directors (as portrayed by GM) who want more success/profit while minimizing investment. AKA the villain's not getting a whole lot in the way of support from the rest of Galatec. :P

Two questions. Would people be able to potentially fake that the subjugation worked, and if not what kind of limitations do parents have on raising their children?

@alexfangtalon This has already been addressed with another potential player talking about a character that was moving up in the ranks to get training. Yes, you can fake it.

What about having a character that was originally under the shackles of slavery, then set free? (I'm so set on the 6th ranger lol)

And what are your thoughts about drugs? Would Galactec ban them, or put their weird additives in them too, but made them stronger so it's like mind control? THE IDEAS!!!

@ProProWade, you might be waiting so long you lose interest man. Unless Pro moves up the time tables for you, it might be a few arcs before another ranger is a reality... but... I don't know, only Pro does. Pro can you nip the sixth ranger situation in the bud for him right now? I don't want Wade to end up bored waiting. Any way we can introduce his character before the idea of a sixth ranger is even considered by anyone--even the mentor?

Ya know what's funny, our end goal never concerned me. I never worried about the possibility of hundreds of humans standing against us or the dire situation we will face every day.

What made me start wondering about our survival rate wasn't the big bad or the final boss. It was the goons, the cannon fodder.

They always come in hordes when the rangers show up which I always thought was fine because come on guy, they're lvl 1, but now....

I guess there are some situations I'm seeing now that we can't get out of like our predecessors did.

I seriously can't wait to see how we do!! It'll be hilarious at first, I'm sure.

And hey, all of that said, you should know that no matter how depressingly, offensively, or obsessively we may think about things.

That negativity is a sad donkey's turd compared to the fact that you're our GM and you know what you're doing.

That was more or less a small part of what was going to occur for the 6th ranger, but of course I don't want to dictate too much of their background, so the player has more creative freedom there. As far as drugs... Never thought about it. At all. I probably won't touch on the topic. This may be a more mature PR, but it's still PR, hahaha.

Judging those kinds of time tables can be... Tricky. I can make estimations and promises until I'm blue in the face, but in the end it all comes down to how quickly we can move through the narrative, you know? Maybe in a week we've made enough progress due to posting madness, maybe it'll take months, I can't say until I know how often people post and how fast we get through the basics.

That negativity is a sad donkey's turd compared to the fact that you're our GM and you know what you're doing.


Uh... Thanks? Hahaha.

@ProPro I understand. So, is there no chance Wade can have his character be a part of things as sort of a non-ranger aide, but NOT the assistant? You weren't clear on that, at least to me. But I shouldn't be doing this for him anyway since it's his vision. I just don't want anyone to be left out of the experience and waiting, since time can be a killer :C

Well, I have been told on numerous occasions that I make a unforgettable villain, so I might just gun for it and see what happens. Good luck to everyone, as I must say this has got me pumped and ready to write again.

@SoleAccordYou know what? I think that I can come up with something... Special in regards to that. ;)

@WindsOfFateBest of luck to you. I should all all the info up in the next 1-4 days, ideally. Until then, try to keep the following in mind: Regional (read as planetary) manager, NOT the head of Galatec as a whole; controls all resources of New Earth but will sometimes have to go through red tape (damn corporations!); personally brokered the treaty between Galatec and New Earth that allowed them to take over; is subject to punishments/reviews by the Board of Directors (read as GM).

Wade I either got you a hookup into the plot before your ranger powers come in, or I have doomed you. Good luck either way my friend.

Oh, and another detail for those worried about the difficulty of fights. One of the primary reasons that the foot soldiers are tougher than you usually see is because the big monsters aren't going to be anywhere near as numerous, so it's to make up for that. Legitimate monster fights will basically be end of arc battles.

@ProPro May I also request that if power-ups are developed, that you don't do what the show typically did and provide too much focus on the Red Ranger? I enjoy equal power distribution so it's more of a team effort--like combining individual weapons into a super weapon--rather than 'give Red Ranger all the powerful modes and equipment while everyone else just sits around.'

And I love me some character development and personal arcs. Bring it on.

@ProPro That's good. To be honest, I always felt a giant monster fight in every episode was a bit overkill. I enjoy when the Power Rangers end the normal-sized monsters. Its always way more epic and better than their giant counterparts.
