BZPower's Bara Magna

[Eiji Hino]

You poor, misguided soul.

 

He will lead you only to wrack and ruin. 

Lies.  Lies and slander.

And this coming from the one who singlehandedly cast his entire village into civil war.

[Onaku]

The end of the season will judge who is right and who is dead.

[Nato G]

And this coming from the one who singlehandedly cast his entire village into civil war.

Guilty as charged. I openly acknowledge and embrace who and what I am.

 

Namely, I'm the man who would happily see every village in this wretched wasteland go the way of the Iron Tribe if it meant the survivors would benefit from it.

 

Progress requires sacrifice.

[Onaku]

Well anyway-

[Trijhak]

Imagine if there was  mask that could probably kill most life on the planet

[Toa Smoke Monster]

Imagine if there was  mask that could probably kill most life on the planet

Now imagine if Tuma had such a mask...

[Makuta Luroka]

Imagine if there was  mask that could probably kill most life on the planet

One can only hope the radical monarchist who holds such a mask is benevolent in intentions.

[Voltex]

Let me gather the mask. My only wish is to see the skrall destroyed, and then I will have peace.

 

...until I find out IC that Annona is back, of course.

[ToaTImeLord]

 

 

I have every faith in Leader TimeLord.

You poor, misguided soul.

 

He will lead you only to wrack and ruin.

Nato in BZPGOT

Those TTL's were evil plan an simple.

TTL 1 wanted world domination and to become its ruler.

TTL 2 wanted the fire region destroyed along with conquering the water region.

 

The CTL of BZPBM is a good guy.

He wants his people to survive and wants the Skrall stopped before they control all of Bara Magna.

I might be thrown into exile next episode but he will still do what is right.

Let me gather the mask.

Yeah...about that.

Once I meet up with him we'll already be two thirds of the way there.

[Dane-gerous]

You're going to have to give me a very convincing argument if I manage to get my hands on these shards first. 

[Onaku]

You'll get a premium "IOU a magic shard" card

[Voxumo]

You're going to have to give me a very convincing argument if I manage to get my hands on these shards first. 

To be fair, fire folk have the most peaceful plans for the shards...  Keep them away from everyone.

[Burnmad]

I feel like Fire's absolute most extreme course of action would be to strike Tuma and only Tuma dead with the shards/mask (if possible), and then use the threat of effortless and total destruction to force the Skrall to disband and travel far from the lands of the Agori.

 

I really don't see this game's version of Burnmad being on-board with genocide against the Skrall, and he'd certainly never put the Rock Agori at risk.

 

(For reference, BZPGOT's Burnmad would probably have already rolled over the weakened Jungle, smashed the Bone Hunter stronghold to bits, assembled the mask and wiped the entire Rock tribe, Skrall and Agori both, off the face of the planet-- or at least, he'd be a good portion of the way through doing all of those things)

I still have to ask... what IC reasoning does everyone have to hate the skrall? Is it purely that they are a threat in the military use of the term?

[Burnmad]

That, and the fact that constantly extending offers of "protection" to the other tribes is pretty suspect

 

But yeah, to use a thought experiment: If there were actual Skrall, giants, elves, or what-have-you in the real world, at any point in history-- does anyone here think that we (the human race) wouldn't have exterminated them long ago, regardless of their disposition? As humans, our number one response to something being scary is to try and kill it

[Pahrak Model ZX]

I can't argue with that.

 

I do feel that's filed under Reasons Why Humans Are Terrible, but I guess that's beside the point.

[Burnmad]

Humans: The cruelest, most willfully terrible species on the planet, and also the most prosperous

[Voltex]

Voltex just has trust issues. The only person he'd support ruling over everything is himself, but he understands that it's never going to happen.

[Eiji Hino]

The issue on the Skrall's "protection" is causing civil unrest in Tesara, and it's dangerously close to the breaking point.

[Voxumo]

Right now the various tribes biggest problems are themselves, seen with issues in Iconox and Tesara. Say what you will about the skrall, but they've done little to no damage compared to what the tribes have.

 

Though it is very interesting watching this debate from a "I'm not involved" angle.

[Burnmad]

You can't really say that the Rock Tribe has done nothing; their very existence changes the course of events.

 

Iconox's and Tesara's internal conflicts both revolve around the Skrall-- remove the Skrall from the equation, and so do you remove the conflicts.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[Onaku]

All things affect other things with their mere existence. The removal of an inactive passive party could have just as profound an impact upon a series of events as the removal of an active one. Even the smallest of changes can have the largest of impacts upon the world.

[Burnmad]

I don't know if I'd say that everything affects everything, so much as everything affects quite a few things, and that it's impossible to tell what effects what in many of those cases.

 

But we're getting into things that are technically impossible to prove or disprove, so let's go back down a few Cuils to what we were talking about originally: Genocide the Skrall, yea or nay? As I'm alone in my room, I vote yea, everyone else abstains by their absence, and that settles things.

The Skrall threaten Tesara's freedom and destiny of being the light of the world.

 

And dude, the Skrall's intention of interfering with our autonomy caused the civil strife going on there.

Think that already happened when it got lit on fire

I would say the light caused disregarded doors to open.

[Nato G]

I still have to ask... what IC reasoning does everyone have to hate the skrall? Is it purely that they are a threat in the military use of the term?

 

The whole taking Agori of other tribes as slaves thing is a bit off-putting, for starters. 

 

Then there's also the fact that they take whatever they want in the arena, from whoever they want, whenever they want, without contributing anything to the trade system themselves. 

 

They're basically big, mean, spiky leeches. And that was before they started offering to "protect" everybody. 

[Trijhak]

Please dispense of this anti-Skrall propaganda. I am a merciful, benevolent ruler, and you will all prosper under my benevolent rule of benevolent kindness and mercy. Dispute this and you will be executed.

You're giving us Tumauch information.

[Bonkle]

Mighty Leader Tumor, it's only Friday night! You're supposed to wait until Saturday morning before making such an awful and cartoonish statement.

[FrozenFlash]

Oh boy. I can't wait till the end of this game so this can happen:

 

Tuma: *gets helmet pulled off* "I would have conquered Bara Magna too if it weren't for you meddling non-Skralls!"

I'll only support this if when his helmet is pulled off, he's revealed to actually be Metus.
