It's the Four of Us

[Vejita I]

Yeah, completely. I meant nothing against you at all Burter. I understand this is your game and you might feel it feels like we're partially "aiming it towards you", but I don't see how this was your fault. This is pretty much frustrations being put out there, but it's not really how they've played the game that annoys me. It's their whole way of thinking, as if they've actually put forth any effort into playing this game.

Anyways, I'm honestly shit out of suggestions. I haven't slept a lick and I've got work in four hours so I've got nothing in terms of suggestions. I apologize, really, I do.

[Vejita I]

Hey Timmee, post before I stab you in the jugular.

No, seriously, post something small so that you don't die. =( It's not like Garlic Jr will be RPing anytime soon.

[Reijin]

Yeah, I'm posting tonight. The only reason I haven't is b/c I was waiting to see what our plan was and get those questions answered from Burter, and now that I see that we are going to just try the "Hulk Smash" routine with lower numbers, I'll do what I can to help.

[Vejita I]

Didn't mean to sound like a dick btw. I just didn't want you to die and all that jazz o.o

I'll post one more today. Maybe two, we'll just have to see how it goes.

Celebration time

*dance*

Team MIA strikes again! =O!

[Reijin]

That was awesome.

[Vejita I]

I'm almost tempted to suggest that we send two separate units into either of their units. One being a unit that is a diversion and another being a unit purely of assassins. We dump in more assassins to strike whenever we feel the time is right =D

[Broli]

I think the reason our last group of assassins were so successful was because we placed them a week or two ago.

But yeah, that was all awesome.

[Reijin]

I expect assassins from them to strike us soon.

[Nori]

Well then I will not trust anyone completely! Not even Rei!

Shapechanging.. a curse. =o.

..Anyway. This has been a good day. Garlic deceased, Kollifum deceased, RADITZU DECEASED, Gokua slightly injured, and Koola lost one of his legs.

Very good day.

[Reijin]

Aren't you enjoying the carnage just a bit too much Ms. Pacifist?

[Broli]

Is anyone else as burnt as I am?

I'm seriously cringing at the thought of fighting the rest of United.

On a lighter note, there's nearly a thousand dead United troops east of Hyperton. Hooray!

Edit:

For the 1000 troops allocations:

Suggestions I'm hearing is 500 Catapult and 500 Kinesis from KV.

Akane? Rei? Specific suggestions for #s or does this look good?

Really, I can understand KV's emphasis on Catapults. With United's history of turtling, and with the increased chance of them just holding up in a fortress with their PCs dying and us on the offensive, Catapults will be extremely handy.

[Reijin]

I'd go all catapults and use the formation I showed earlier personally, if we are fighting them in fortresses. If it was open terrain, I'd go differently, but if they are going to hide inside stone coffins, bury them in it, instead of trying to break our way in.

And yes, I'm seriously getting burned out. We have had to roleplay this exact same goddamn scene too many times now. Its literally "How can I reword all my other posts to apply to this situation" and I've had no idea what to write every single time. By being the only aggressors in this tournament, we've had no variation as to the game, and that's irritated me. United will have a completely fresh "this is the first time we've had to write this scene" stance to work with, getting to bust out amazing stuff.

However, thankfully, we somewhat have better stat ratios and I'm perfectly willing to bust ass and try to find that as of yet "cool rewording" to do this again.

[Vejita I]

I didn't have a chance to post last night because of work and school, but I spoke with Gokua. He basically summed up that if we don't move into their positions, it's unlikely that they will attack us. They're pretty much scared to fight us, honestly. They feel like we have the superior RPers and they can't match up. Then again, this may be a trick to make us lose our guard. But in the likliness that it's not a trick, whatever we're going to do, I'd like to try and come up with some safe ways of fighting them before we go straight into the heap of battle with everything on the line. But basically, they're planning on turtling. Again. =/

Also, I kind of feel like the assassin thing worked because A) 60 assassins versus them, the differences are obviously there and B) Those who were killed were inactive as hell. I don't think it had to do with them staying them for so long, but more to the fact that they were overwhelmed by numbers and their activity was pretty slim at that time.

Oh, and I'm incredibly burnt out. But I think I'll be fine. Expect a few RPs from me the second the fight starts. Definitely.

EDIT: As for the troops, I think all catapults would be fine if we had an ACCEPTABLE formation to avoid us losing troops. We can't spare anymore at this point. Rei seemed to have a good formation for them and all.

[Broli]

I'll make the necessary allocations once we get our combat report from fighting Garlic. We may need to replenish troop counts in certain areas, but overall we should be fine.

[Reijin]

So let's give ourselves a short break. We go to a lake or something, and have a freakin' cookout for ourselves and the troops. While they are on edge and not getting much sleep wondering when we'll hit, our troops take one final moral boosting break and we eat hotdogs and waffles. Just to get some activity in for us and get us some more roleplaying fodder amongst the group.

[Vejita I]

I'm actually amped for this fight. I really want to just get it over with ASAP at this point, but I understand you guys are burnt out. No problem on a little wait.

[Broli]

I just threw up another offer. I have no intentions of following through with it, but hopefully it'll cause some fragmentation amongst the loyalty between the remaining PCs.

Gokua also PMed me asking who initially came to us from United asking us to join. I told him it was Android 16.

[Vejita I]

I thought it was funny. Especially Garlic Jr's reply to the thread. Good stuff.

[Broli]

I'll have a post up tonight or tomorrow starting off the big relaxation thing for the troops.

Keep in mind though that the longer it goes, the longer it takes before we kill off United.
