I'll have a chance to properly examine it later, where I'm less likely to injure someone if something goes wrong.OOC: The 'exotic weapon' is a pistol like the one now used by Dorian. >'Exotic weapon' = pistol>Pistol = Xian tech>Xian tech made in MN>What.jpgHonestly, if all you needed to get firearms was widgets/a semblance of alignment with Makuta, then you'd think there would be a few more gun-carrying PCs/NPCs now...I guess it's up to Emzee to decide exactly if they're out of reach or not.

Emzee Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Nuju can overrule this if he so chooses, but if that's the policy then I'll be fine with -one or two- pistols in that crate. There's no doubt that members of the CG would have bought at least one of every type of weapon usable in this game, no matter who it belonged to or where it came from. I was first under the impression that pistols weren't in use at all.And yes I did mean foreign. Just be smart about it though. Couple pistols, one or two zamor launchers max. Mostly swords and knives. Edited September 8, 2012 by Altair of Assassins Creed "hey girl: here’s an idea, but… it’s up to you: You’re the boss of this operation."

Mostly swords and knives.It's reasonable to assume that the CG has probably ferreted away one or two pieces of foreign tech. However, seeing as Skakdi and Vortixx essentially wash up on the shore with whatever tech they've had approved and only that, it isn't feasible to assume that the CG's arsenal of foreign weapons is extensive or complete in any way.Policy is still that, with the exception of staff-controlled CG characters (and/or characters they have loaned low-power foreign weapons out to), there can be no usage of foreign tech weapons by natives of Mata Nui unless said weapons are won in fair combat.

Katuko Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Okay, now I'm really confused. It helped but I'm still dizzy. So, what exactly are the war zones and which are still peaceful and unaltered? I'm guessing ILS is a big Toa Team fighting against the Makuta worshippers, right? Anyway, which part or parts of Mata -Nui is still safe and unchanged? Sorry if I'm another of a bore, I've been offline for a long long while,. Appreciate it if you or anyone could help. Thanks.Heuani (the staff-controlled Toa of Shadow) has been going around to nudge Makuta-loyal groups into actually gathering their forces. They will be attacking the ILS and its allies (both of which have grown a fair bit) at some point in the future. With the exception of Pala-Koro (our village at Lake Pala) being expanded a bit and some of the other villages being struck (such as Ko-Koro, it's currently calmed down and rebuilding), there hasn't been all that much change in the locations. The most unsafe locations is probably Kini-Nui itself and some of the island's darker places, due the how close it is to Mangaia. If Makuta wants to find you, though, he will.The ILS consists of members from every species, by the way, though mostly Toa and Matoran.Harbored?Not "harbored". "Pearl Harbor'ed". A verbified noun, meaning "done the same way as Pearl Harbor"; that is: being bombed and destroyed by enemy forces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

otter Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Praggos has to keep his allies. He's probably going to do his first real fighting ever, since his original incarnation as a female....Anyways, it seems that I've started a random sub-plot, where now, apparently, male Toa of Crystal from the same place as Raxa (and now Bloodstone) will be rather murderous upon meeting.EDIT: As well, any annoying G-modding that could possibly have occured by having somebody trying to swing around a tree without a Pakari, or other strength-enhancing thing, is rendered moot due to the fact that it's been destroyed as it is.

shadow pridak money gang Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 So, as an outsider to the Ga-Wahi fight, please please please play realistically. I haven't read the whole fight, nor do I have any interest in it, but from what I can read, there are very clearly fatal injuries, lapses in common sense, and just plain out "wat" moments abounding and flying like bullets, and somehow, everyone's just, like...ignoring them? Negating them? I don't even know.As it stands, your characters shouldn't be able to get away with this stuff even if they do escape in one piece. You guys went on a witch hunt for Dorian that's still ongoing just because he trashed the docks against one other person; this is on a much larger scale, and please don't just make a clean getaway. It's not fair to any of the other players in the game and it's a real bummer when realistic situations get killed just for the sake of epic like what seems to be happening right now.But whatever. I can't make you guys do anything. I'm just urging you to keep this stuff in mind.-Teezy SAY IT ONE MORE TIME TELL ME WHAT IS ON YOUR MIND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCs aren't gods incarnate, or capable of walking away from anything without physical or social repercussions; nor are they shounen fighting anime heroes possessing the ability to keep power through anything on sheer determination. Please try to give this fight some remote semblance of sanity and remember that. Edited September 8, 2012 by World's #1 Dad [Profiles] Wisdom. Restraint. Emptiness.

Krayzikk Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) The wounding of Yick wasn't autohitting because he couldn't avoid it. Each time I gave him a chance to react, it was jyst that there wasn't much he could do. And furthermore, Couch hasn't complained. If Couch had a problem with it, I would have talked it over with him and worked out a way for everyone to walk out happy.Yick isn't dead. In fact, he can recover. It just won't be easy.@Tyler and Mangs: You're right. Which is why, once things settle down a bit with the post speed, the Marines will show up. And I haven't spotted too man y issues of g-modding, and the ones I saw were minor an fixed quickly.And to address the injuries side of things, all of the Bearers have taken hits. Iris is running low on elemental energy, and has a broken finger. The reason he hasn't taken much damage is because there haven't been many attacks he couldn't avoid. That's the way fights work. SOmetimes, both combatants are quite injured. Other times, it's a complete and utter beatdown.

Eyru Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 The Toa Daedra are joining the battle between the Toa Maasi and the Mark Bearers (as well as whoever else has decided to jump in). They have no side; they are merely trying to restore peace and tranquility to Ga-Koro. If you run, they will not chase you, but if you stay, I cannot guarantee they will not kill you.In other words, let's finish up this battle before everyone gets angry.
