[OOC] Across Broken Skies [Ace Combat inspired RP]

[Voltus_Ventus]

I'm sorry but I'm backing out of this, I haven't posted anything at all in a while and I won't be able to pull off the massive pieces you guys've written. Again, sorry and have a good time guys.

[Rhona W]

That's a shame, but fair enough and thanks for letting me know.

One pilot shot down, unfortunately. As for me, I couldn't post today, but there will be one from me, I'm not dropping out yet.

[Driving Park]

What's the policy on calling kills? I've been leaving them open for the AWACS to call like in the last RP.

[nautilusmp]

With Voltus dropping out, could we declare IC that Excalibur Ten was shot down?

Post coming up in an hour or two.

Thought the exact same!

[nautilusmp]

Post is up.

And by the way, Silverwind, I'll be out from July 28 to August 6, perhaps even starting as early as mid-July, due to me participating in a competition.

[Rhona W]

Thanks for letting me know, man - hopefully the game will still be running by then, and if it is, I'll plan around it. You probably won't miss too much as it is, so I'm sure it'll be fine.

Good to see the posts keep on coming. Great stuff, everyone :)

[Rhona W]

Sorry, I realized I missed a couple of replies in there

Basically, I'll mention them as Overwatch when I post for the most part, but I'm mostly okay with you calling your own bandits/targets down, as long as you don't be a showboating tool about it, and make you character unscathed blissfully and a king of the skies - basically, not that I'm expecting any of you to do it (though I've had bad experiences before), don't turn your characters into hyper-competant Mary Sues, and I'll be fine.
It's not exciting if there's not a sense of danger, mainly.
And I will take steps to rectify that, if I see it happening...

Sounds like a plan to me! I'll incorporate it into the next GM post I put up.

Since I haven't posted at all since we began and getting into the RP may be kind of hard at this time, can we just say that my plane had problems on takeoff (a compressor stall, perhaps?) and Nate will join in on the second mission?

That or perhaps we're still at a point where I can get in easily, in which case, I would be happy to do a post. Please advise on this subject! :)

Heh, my character almost got burnt because of getting overconfident. :P

I was beginning to worry that you weren't interested!
You can quite easily still join in - all it'd take is a post of you engaging one of the hostiles to get into the thick of it, not much time has passed since we took off, and there's not been so much activity that you can't still make your mark.
If you'd prefer to wait, then you're more than welcome to do that too. It's up to you, man.

Cool, thanks for the clarification! I'll leave them open for Overwatch unless I absolutely have to announce one for plot/post order/whatever reasons.

That moment when you realize you've been using the wrong Fox designation for your missiles ._.

[Sauron The Dark Lord]

Hehe.

[Mateotis]

I think I used the correct designations, had the Wikipedia page open the whole time. :3

[Slypheed]

Good news, I was in the process of making a post.

Bad news, my computer had a stupid error, now all post progress on that post is lost :l

[Skythikon]

[/pat] Happens to the best of us.

[Rhona W]

I'm pretty sure my last calls on the missiles in my most recent post weren't right either, so I sympathise!

I've been using Fox-Three when I should have been using Fox-One o 3o
