Dice UEEF: The Shadow Chronicles - OOC Thread

[Sherwood]

Hi, just wanted to check. But is there anything my character should be aware of regarding the alien races we've interacted with so far? Namely their past history with Earth?

As of this point, the only aliens that humanity has interacted with is the Zentraedi. Normally a race of 40 foot tall giants, they can me micronized to be normal human height. They are a warrior race, created by the Robotech Masters nearly 450 years ago to act as their military arm of their empire. From the Zentraedi that defected from their masters and joined the UEEF you would have learned that they're major enemy is a race known as the Invid. The Invid is a nasty bunch, and according to the Zentraedi, there is no negotiating with the Invid, no surrender; it is always a fight to the death with them.

 

[jaydude]

Much appreciated.

 

[Sherwood]

Of course.

 

[Sherwood]

Mirgris Rykon Can I get some posts from you guys? Mirgris especially, since I don't think you've posted in the game at all.

And D. Rex You have anything to add to the scene, or should I just move on to the meeting with the Clone Master?

 

[D. Rex]

Nothing to add currently.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok. I will move things forward soon.

 

[Sherwood]

IC post coming up later today.

 

[Sherwood]

Mirgris If I don't hear from you, one way or another, I am going to write you out of the story. I've tagged you, and have seen you've been on line and have not replied. I've been waiting on the next IC post to give you time to reply. Please let me know what you want, either to continue in the game or to bow out.

 

[jaydude]

Sorry to be a hassle, but in terms of armaments, what would those with more knowledge of the Robotech lore recommend, if civilian casualties are going to be a concern in this next engagement?

 

[Sherwood]

I can say that Psychie's call of not using Plasma warheads is a good one. You don't want to start a bunch of fires in the city. You'll be doing enough property damage as it is. I would suggest for your internal missiles to go with HEAP for the damage, and for your wing hard points to load up some Medium Range Multi Warheads. Those do a lot of damage, and you can launch them quickly enough to give you full transformation ability (since you can't go into Battloid mode with missiles on your wings).

For your bomb bay, you can go with 8 medium sized bombs, and that would give you quite a bang for the buck.

Thanks, Sherley. I'll take that loadout.

 

[Sherwood]

You got it.

D. Rex Rykon You guys have anything to add? Right now, its just Jaydude and Psychie posting.

 

[Rykon]

There's only been 2 posts since my last IC post. I'm still with ya.

I'm also a bit mixed up when it comes to missile payloads. Which weapon systems am I able to custom load for, with which missiles? There's multiple systems and each one seems to have different capacity/constraints.

 

[D. Rex]

The Alpha has two different sets of missiles; the MM-60 which is your primary payload of 60 short range missiles, then there is 8 mini missiles that are more defensive in nature.

 

[Rykon]

I reckon I'm just going to go with the defaults for a loadout, which I think is the HEAPs.

Yeah I'm sorry I got tied up in 12 hour work shifts and then sleeping about 10 to recover.

I'll post in the next 24 hours and catch up, I also noticed that I'm not following threads I post in, I thought that was automatic and will be doing so, so I see updates.

 

[Sherwood]

Wow. Those are some rough work shifts. Thanks for letting me know, and hopefully your schedule will ease up a bit!

 

[Sherwood]

IC post coming up soon.

 

[jaydude]

Truth be told, I'm still very new to this game, so I'm just repeating Psychie 's move for the sake of a quick response.

 

[Sherwood]

No worries. You are out of gun range, so all you can hit with is the missiles. 4 or more missiles can't be dodged, so as long as you don't roll a 1-4 (which you didn't) you hit. Go ahead and give me your damage roll. As long as it is over 200 MDC, you score a kill.

 

[D. Rex]

are any of us paired up?

 

[jaydude]

Psychie and I are paired up, apparently.

 

[Sherwood]

You are all linked at the moment.

 

[D. Rex]

You are all linked at the moment.

To with whom is Victor paired?
