Alright. Anyone, respond? It doesn't need to be long. I figured you might want to come up with a plan and/or ask for more details, but if you just want to go in and start shooting, that works too.

Alright, just posted something. Apologies, I have been busier than normal and fighting the flu all at once. Although it seems as though everybody else is busy also :P

Nice to see some banter here. :P I'm going to make a smaller post either later today or at some point tomorrow. Maybe SonofJET will get something in before I do, though.

Ekirei? SonofJET? Does anyone have any idea how else they can be contacted? This is getting a little bit annoying.

On the upside, if he's willing, I'm considering adding TheMadAsshatter early if it turns out we are down to two already.

Since Ekirei isn't showing up, and in the interest of moving things along, I'm assuming direct control over Moss.

If Ekirei does come back and show interest in reclaiming the character later, we could negotiate retconing any characterisation he doesn't like so long as the gist of Moss' actions remains the same.

I'm sorry for my absence. I'm post-surgical, and painkillers have been making me a bit too prone to simply falling asleep all day.

I'll try to keep up with the posts, and make sure to get my ass out of bed to come up with something when the time comes.

That's fine. Better late than never.

However I reiterate: it'd really be better if you told me here in advance if you are not going to be able to post for whatever reason. :P I was worried there for a moment that we lost another player. I'd generally prefer to know where we stand.

I'm good to go whenever. Just let me know when.

Ampharos let me know that he probably won't post any time soon and his character has already more or less abdicated responsibility for the planning, so there's no need to wait for him. Let's get on with the plan.

Would Vayex prioritise avoiding a head-on battle or ensuring that he runs into Wrang?

Well he is no stranger to head-on battles and the whole reason he has come out of hiding is for a chance to put down Wrang so at this stage, I think it's obvious where his priorities lie. That could change though...

I'm curious... Is it only Commander Shepard that died on Akuze/Elysium/Torfan or never existed or is it all of the major characters also?

That's a fine question that I'm in no particular hurry to answer. :P

I can say that Aria is evidently still around. As is Ganar Wrang, but he's not exactly major, is he? If you're wondering about Shepard's shipmates, I guess I can reveal that I have some plans for at least one of them - but the spotlight is very much not on that lot this time.

I never stop accepting new applications in case I need reserves, but you won't be added to the game itself until after the current mission.

(I will probably get rid of the active player cap after that since, given how disappearance-prone this is turning out to be, the more PCs I have active the better.)

I swear, RP'ers seem to have the best, and most depressing, disappearing acts in history.

Indeed.

Speaking of: Ampharos tells me he'll keep being busy for a bit. Hopefully he'll free up somewhat this weekend, but in the meantime I'm going to temporarily NPC his character to speed things along.

Okay, let's try and wrap up the planning, shall we?

Ayden, is Vayex ready to try and go in shooting against the Blue Suns? There are no other immediately apparent alternatives, but with a distraction and element of surprise it should probably be doable. That said if you have any other plans to give you an additional edge, that would be interesting to hear.

SonofJET, does Ruav'Tor accept the offered plan?

Forgot your quote marks, I think. :P

Okay, SonofJET? If you don't have the time to make a post, just say you're ready to move on and we'll move on.

Alright, this is how it's going to work.

You write what your character is going to try to do in IC, tell me what Ability you're planning to use (or else ask me to pick, I suppose), and also what Augment you want to use if any (I reserve the right to veto it if it doesn't seem appropriate for whichever reason). You also make the necessary roll(s) in Invisible Castle (remember, it's always just 1d20) and add the link(s) to your post. Then I will roll for the Resistance and narrate the outcome.

Any questions about the game process? Feel free to ask them here or by PM.

Any questions about the battlefield situation as a whole? I suggest you ask them here.

I'm really hoping we'll be able to pick up pace here, since dragging out combat is, well, horrible. If you have any ideas on speeding things up, I'd be completely open. Remember, I really don't need anything too fancy, though flavour is always welcome; I'd gladly settle for basic cut and dry descriptions of what your character is going to try and do.
