We Are Our Avatars III (Ended!)

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: Oh...

OOC: I tried replying to stuff last night but my internet effed up.
40k and OP:
Aspects of the universe are OP (Forge World models or Imperial Armour models) and everything isn't as stupidily OP as everyone thinks. Who wants to play a board game where every faction is OP?
Mechanics:
The mechanics of 40k is not to have ungodly OP armies duking it out, any gameplay of Dawn of War will show you that. No, the actual main element and mechanic in the game is FUN suprisingly. Every codex, every rule, every errata all designed to make the game flow and fun to play. It isn't grim and depressed nerds sitting in a darkened games shop throwing dice. Its friendly and competitave people laughing their asses off whenever something funny happens.
@Salty Yes I was hateful. So hateful of your characters reaction and it stung like a barb. Good will doesn't belong in the 21st century I just wanted some attention.
@Random 40k fleet vs Reapers would be an interesting match (Apart from the fact that it has never clearly defined how strong reapers shields are.) Also Mass Effect is set a couple of hundred years in the future and yet the technlogy there is consistently more advancement than current Imperial tech.
@ALL I've been here since page 1 of the first thread. Its so hard to interact with everyones characters now because there is this wall of plot and situations that are impregnable to not only new players but those who missed out on the events. If you can honestly tell me the last character I had that knew anyones character well then I would be impressed. This brief plot that I brought out was obviously made with previous observations to other 40k attempts, the whole thing was set up to be like WoW instances, snippets and morsels at a time since I know too much 40k is overwhelming.

I'm going to say this again to be as clear as possible. My objections to WH40k have absolutely nothing to do with the tone of the universe at larger, or the way it is played. It was probably a mistake for me, someone who knows just about nothing about the subject, to say that everything in that universe is OP comparatively speaking. However, all I was talking about was stuff from experience. More specifically, experience from this thread. Like I have said before, you, @Ven, handle 40k the best out of anyone else who has tried, but, I honestly think it's just more of a headache than it's worth. I'm just stating my opinions and will gladly go along with any plots you have in mind until I see an actual problem with it.

Why did we go into so much of a rage-quit mood yesterday?

Well I don't know about anyone else, but I was making it so that my characters were not dodging and shrugging off every attack that was thrown at them. Grace was forced to maintain her barrier because of the heavy fire the mechs were sending out. That guy (don't remember his name) attacked her while she was resting. She was not prepared and so she got hit. She got hit hard, while she was still tired, so she stayed down. Makes sense to me.

 

[Drakmorg]

OOC: Hi folks. I'm back for about an hour or two.

 

[Outisakanobody]

OOC: ...Anyway, sorry I could not get myself out of bed today. Looks like no one is around though...damn it...Except for @Drak of course...

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: Hold on, I'm here. I was playing UMVC3, but I had this open on my compy. Just refreshed it and saw you two were on. Afraid I can't do much right now because I only got 10 mins till dinner, but just posting this to say the thread ain't dead.

 

[Slenn]

OOC: @All. Hey guys, just seeing what's going on. I only have a few moments before my battery goes away. BTW, look at what I found:

[Outisakanobody]

OOC: ...Bah...

 

[Chungus]

OoC: I'm back. Since there was a discussion on vioce actors for our chars, the choice for mine would be Georgia van Cuylenburg for Erica, Tim Curry for Anger.

Erica wokup, did her morning routine and left the ship, not best pleased with the fact that the group was back in the ruins of Brasilia.

 

[Drakmorg]

OOC: Well you guys want to do some character interaction or something? I've got nothing better to do for the next hour or so.
Also, In regards to what Nailik just said, I have no idea who would voice act any of my Original characters. Also, also, I can't help but imagine Anger sounding like Nigel Thornberry now

 

[Gearhead mk2]

OoC: Ok, off for dinner.

 

[Outisakanobody]

OOC: I don't really pay attention to most actors so...yeah, no opinion. Anyway, we might as well try and do something.

Grace and Gerry both wake up and have a shower.

 

[Slenn]

OOC: My choices for voice actors:

Sara Strong: Tara Strong (I'm not joking. I really like her voice talent. She did the voice of Raven, Bubbles, and Twilight Sparkle) or Wendee Lee.
EMily: Tara Strong.
Winona Weak: Andrea Libman. (Did the voice of Fluttershy in MLP FIM)
Gwen Gravity: Christina Vee. (Did the voice of Riven in LoL)

 

[Slenn]

OOC: Another alternative for Winona would be Christina Ulloa, who did the voice of Annie from LoL.

Anyways, I'll be off to charge my computer and do some other activities. See you guys in 6 hours or so.

 

[Chungus]

OoC @Drak

Spoiler: Not sure about your other chars, but I imagine the guy who voiced the green guy at 2:26 would be a pretty good choice for Zbigniew.

 

[Drakmorg]

Rose was sitting on top of the ship, writing in her black notebook. She couldn't help but sigh as she wrote something in particular down. "Guess this can't be our home either..."

OOC: After a bit of thought, I'm thinking Jennifer Hale might be a decent fit for Four. No clue for Asha or Rose though.
@Nail: That's actually a pretty good fit.

 

[Outisakanobody]

Grace and Gerry get dressed and walk outside. Grace brought out a chair and sat with Gerry in her lap.

 

[Chungus]

OoC @Drak: Yush! I knew it.

Erica looked up at the ship when she heard Rose.
"You're thinking about settling down somewhere?" She asked. When Grace and Gerry came out of the ship, she turned to them and gave them a cheerful wave. "Good morning."

 

[Drakmorg]

Rose looked over the edge of the ship down at Erica. "Well it's not like I want to do this my whole life. But after pretty much every city in the world has been made to look like this..." She said, gesturing to the ruined city of Brasilia, "...That doesn't look like it's going to happen."

 

[Outisakanobody]

Grace and Gerry waved back, Gerry less cheerfully.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"...Wait...did you say every city has been destroyed? How?" Grace asked Rose, sounding very concerned.
