[@Xandrya][@Silver Carrot][@Dealdric][@BKburke][@Azereiah][@Simple Unicycle][@Banana][@t2wave][@Hawlin][@Tickout] So yeah, as mentioned in the little ooc note to everyone in the latest post, I've come up with a few ways of changing the plans slightly to get us to the end of this mission a bit faster, maybe it's just me that feels this, but I think I over-planned things for this one. I wanted to imbue it with a sense of epicness, like this is the end of 'chapter 1' of our little adventure, but in the process of that, I think I over-complicated it all with all these phases and whatnot. Again, maybe it's just me being a tough critic on my own writing, but either way I want to get some opinions before I lock this new plan in. Option 1 is just keep trucking away at the mission as we are. We'll slowly but surely make our way through the remaining 3 phases. Option 2 is speed-run it. We'll clear the remaining bit of phase 2, along with all of phase 3 and 4 as quick as we can, like perhaps a maximum of 3 posts each per phase, and then we'll do the entirety of phase 5 as it's planned. Option 3 is, once we clear out phase 2 in this next round of posting and head back to the ship for a moment, bring all the various groups back together and whatnot, I'll do a super long post that covers the events of phases 3 and 4, sets up phase 5 and kicks it all off so there's no real delay and we can get right down to business chopping away at Sol's remaining forces. So, I'm finalizing a few things in the phase 5 plan, NPC deaths and whatnot, and I had an idea, since the end of this mission is meant to be like a 'season finale'/end of chapter 1 kind of deal, I wanted to get you guys involved, hence the pm I sent to everyone a few days ago. So I wanted to ask this question of each of you, you can reply here or in the pm: Sol's got a bunch of lieutenants and various other higher-ups in his army we need to take out, do you want your character to be involved in a 1 on 1 fight with one of these guys, or would you rather just get the chance to tear through an army of grunts? Any alternate options or ideas, fling them my way! One last thing, a bit of bad news because sadly, Dark Light has decided to drop out. Arex is gonna be relegated to NPC status until I figure out what to do with him.
