Does the team still want Nightingale to accompany them for the final battle, considering she's shown a vulnerability to Gungirl 1's seductive attack?


I say we keep her. Rocksmith can use Uprising on her if she's seduced. She can also use All Better Now on herself.


Would you like to hear the backstory for the metahumans you'll be facing in the pre-battle brief, or would you prefer we just get on with the fighting?


You've already told me part of it, so I'd like to hear the rest of it.


Looks like the team needs a Tech Support character to help round things off. Anyone got the number of a call centre in India?


Booooooooooo!

Backstory is all good. Also Psy-Warp is a support, I accidently said blocker at first because I was dead tired at the time.

In that case we're looking for a Tech Support, Blitzer or Blocker to balance out the squad. :)

> Sonic Pulse: (Cost: 5) Sigma launches a powerful sonic pulse towards its enemies, which deals damage equal to Sigma's ATK. Entities affected are stunned for a turn

With sonic-based attacks I'm thinking of allowing them to partially bypass an opponent's armour. If you increase the cost of this ability to 6 Energy then any target hit by it will only be able to use 2/3 Defence when countering it. If you increase the cost to 8 then the target will only be able to use 1/3 Defence.

You could even choose to take the ability with variable strength, so SIgma could save Energy when attacking lightly armoured targets, or ramp up the power to take down tanks.

> Overload: (Cost: 1) For three turns, Sigma gains triple energy regeneration per turn, and always acts first. After this takes effect, Sigma is stunned and drained of all its energy.

I was going to say this would be too powerful an ability, but having done the maths I can't see how the ability would actually benefit Sigma with his 15 Energy cap at the moment.

Even if you were burning through abilities, I'd see a typical chain of events running something like:

The only difference is that Sigma's attacks would happen first in the chain of events, rather than in the order they get posted as I'd normally action them. While that would be beneficial to you, it could mess up the other players' plans if Sigma manages to eliminate an opponent they were targeting for their own attack.

While I wouldn't stop you from taking the ability as it is, I'd recommend changing it to something like:
Overclock: (Cost: 3)
Overclocking his processor Sigma moves and acts faster. For two turns, Sigma may trigger two actions or abilities per round instead of the usual one and Sigma's attacks and abilities are dealt with before any other actions in the round. On the third turn Sigma's power is drained, reducing its Energy reserve to 0 and causing it to be Stunned for a round, but for two turns after that it gains the Reboot status effect, trebling its normal Energy regeneration as its systems reset.

Totally random comment that has nothing to do with the current topic but.....Deimos is very Anti-Tank. A lot of her abbilities, both future and current, affect her target's defence adversely, and then take advantage of that adverse defence.

@KabenSaal That's good to know since the Gungirls are anti-anti-tank. The more their defences are stripped away the more appealing they become to the male members of the squad. XD

Yea, but Rocksmith's immune to those pervs, and facing Deimos' attacks without any sort of defence is tandamount to suicide. It'd be like 'Mmm, look at our sexy, nak-' *Pow! GG1's face turns concave*

I'm fairly certain this violates the adult content rules. Also, they look a lot different from how they looked when you showed me their character sheets.

No need, anyone can target an enemy's equipment if they want to, just lie Heretic did in the last engagement.

Also, have you seen Nightbeast's hitting power since she upgraded? Why would she even need to worry about the tinfoil standing in her way.

And not forgetting Bumblebee or Sigma who are also immune.

I'm fairly certain this violates the adult content rules.

I very, very carefully stayed just within the rules. In fact I even censored the guitar girl's crotch to make sure not to offend the admins.

If you'd really like to stop the RP just because of a couple of naughty picture posted in jest, feel free to report me.

Don't worry, I don't plan on reporting you. If my time on the internet has taught me anything, it's that admins catch the scent of a rule breaking post approximately 10 minutes after their posted. So chances are they already know.

There was a clue to that at the beginning of the previous engagement:

Bumblebee is immune to Beguiling Tune: Female Heterosexual
Nightingale is now Smitten with Gungirl 1!

An open sexuality can be a dangerous thing when mind-warping sirens are on the loose.

That, or Nightingale's really a man in drag.
