[OOC] Massive Multiversal Crossover

[Prostagma]

So Vita, you do realize that stars last for a grand total of ten seconds, tops, yeah? I take it the toads will comically lose their invincibility next post, and signal a mass retreat? I mean, after all, it would be pretty unfair if people's characters got chased off by bottom-tier mooks. That goes double if this loss stemmed entirely from accidental misinterpretation of setting mechanics.

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

Orrrr every Toad could be equipped with a hammerspace bag that deploys more stars upon one wearing out. Come on man, we can be comedic here. Right?

[Laughing Matter]

I think it's less being chased off by mooks and more that they weren't even supposed to be there in the first place

[VitaVitaAR]

I'm trying to end the Mushroom Kingdom scene. I'm not one of those GMs who has(or lets) villains destroy and murder in lighthearted settings in crossovers just to show how evil they are. There's much better ways of having villains be threatening and evil. Besides, it's mostly for comedic effect and even though the Toads will run out Shadow Eternity's leader is going to order them to leave. I wouldn't be doing this except Mario's player disappeared and I'd rather find something easier to manage for these characters then trying to run this scene and figure out some kind of coherent exit, as opposed to maybe folding them into something else. And yes, they weren't supposed to be there, as well.

@Laughing Matter

Well, if you're alright with it I guess.

So uh, I made a character before asking if you had spots open, hope you didn't mind. I see there's some kind of new group going to Resident Evil land with Meta Ridley, would like to join them if it's not much trouble. Kind of a big Resident Evil fan. uh, have a link to the character: http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/74771-massive-multiversal-crossover-interest-check-and-signups/ooc?page=30#post-2363300

[Scarifar]

We always have spots open, Zero. Also, I thought I should say that I will be taking a few creative liberties with the siege on Derek Simmons' facility. I assume that the Shadow Eternity soldiers that Medic is with is equipped with high tech firepower and armor, which probably might still be torn apart like tissue paper by the monsters within the facility. And, I assume that the base looks like a warehouse on the outside, with armed guards patrolling around it, and underneath there will be a huge maze of hallways and laboratories and stuff.

@Scarifar

For convenience's sake, all of what you just said is officially true. Post tomorrow. Fatigued today. Blergh.

@Scarifar

Considering how the only three people we can confirm are being sent on the mission are Medic, Hampus, and Our Hero, I think that theory doesn't hold a lot of water.

[Lost Cause]

OK, I guess it's probably time that I pulled out, since I've done nothing but procrastinate to the point where I have no idea what is going on any more. >.<

@Earnest Evans

NPC's. Obviously.

[Earnest Evans]

@Scarifar

I don't feel very comfortable with NPC's, really. It'll only reduce the level of interaction between UMMA players and SE players, since people can be confident that they can always make a "safe" post depicting them blowing away faceless mooks. Plus, it looks like this mission would be better done stealthily (or, rather, as stealthily as a doctor, a wizard, and a janitor can be) rather than a full-on assault on the facility. Meta-Ridley and his crew attack the UMMA fleet in orbit, while Medic and his team take advantage of the UMMA's distraction to sneak into the facility. It's foolproof!

Stealth is not Medic's style. He's the kinda guy that goes in guns blazing. If I wanted stealth I would've gotten the Spy.

@Earnest Evans

They are in the resident evil world. Stealth may not always work against Lickers for instance. It's safe to assume that BOW's found in there could easily go predator mode and screw over any attempts of stealth.

@Savato

In which case you go loud once you're inside and away from the UMMA. Medic may be a sadist who wants to cause trouble, but I doubt he's stupid enough to start a pitched firefight while the enemy is on high alert. Medic understands the concept of an investment for future rewards. Sneak into the facility, get what you need using your team currently comprised of mooks and non-combat specialists, and THEN go ripshit bonkers now that you've got a bioweapons facility stolen from right under the enemy's nose.

[RolePlayerRoxas]

That reminds me, Aura is working undercover to obtain info on UMMA agents. Guess I should do something about that.

[Scarifar]

Hmm... must take new thoughts into mind.... NAAAAAH BRING ON THE MONSTERS!!! Remember, Medic is a crazed doctor who removed a patient's skeleton, probably just for the heck of it, and got his medical license revoked. I doubt he's the type to ask first and shoot later.

[FujiwaraPhoenix]

Roxas, no reaction to Gintoki's using of Gilgamesh as a launchpad into the fray? :3c

@Scarifar

Great. Thanks for making this yet another "SE acts dickish until a stable of UMMA heroes comes along and righteously butchers them" situation instead of something all three of our characters can work with. You've really come out into the spotlight as a beacon of strategic thought.

[Scarifar]

Hmm.... well, I suppose I could ask to see what Vita thinks of it, then edit my post accordingly. Besides, I doubt Derek Simmons would have agreed to our demands (him, the C-Virus, the AI) and you also mentioned going batshit insane once we "got the bioweapons facility right under their nose." Also, Meta-Ridley DID bring shuttles, which I assume were to bring soldiers along with our characters. And I believe Meta-Ridley was giving commands to what I assume to be NPC soldiers.
