Re: Echoes of the Past Tournie Discussion Thread
“The strong are strongest alone!”
The echo of this proclamation had barely died out when a fiery blast engulfed what was left of what had once been a bank. Screaming and the gurgling of death throes accompanied the pathetic rumble of collapsing brick and mortar. A lone survivor emerged from the building, which had been serving as a base of operations for a group of Maximal treasure-hunters. As the wounded soldier limped from the flames, a shadow detached itself from a nearby wall, and, drawing a knife, crept behind the ill-fated Maximal. Three brutal stabs and it was over, oil and blood sizzling in the heat of the inferno. Reprisal, the infamous bomber of Vos, had struck again.
“Pathetic half-breeds. Your kind does not have the right to walk upon this ground.”
The dying Maximal struggled to look up at his murderer, but could see a maniacal glint hovering above his face. Confused and disoriented, he summoned the strength to muster one last word.
“…Why?”
“Why? You foreign subspecies, you lack the true warrior spirit. You pathetic little Maximals think that you can enslave us? The Autobots attempts the same, and they failed. Before the Great War, Iacon tried. They failed. Tarn tried. They failed. Even as an empire of ash, we stand stronger than you can imagine. For the eternal glory of Vos!”
Reprisal’s diatribe was in vain, however, as his victim had died before he had even begun. Looking around him, the former terrorist saw movement on the horizon. More interlopers had arrived – and they needed to be destroyed.

It's the general opinion on my side of the devide that there arnt enough tournie missions.
Im concidering uping it to all '0' missions and all '5' missions.
Before I do that (and if I'll do that sometime Sunday), I want to know what the bots/maxis/preds think about it.
I will only do it if the majoruty of those taking part are ok with it.

Re: Echoes of the Past Tournie Discussion Thread
“Prime, tell me about this Havocon Division.”
“I told you, Dread, they were a platoon in the Vos-Tarn war.”
Dreadspawn and Jesus Prime were getting closer now. Every passing hour saw the spire of the mausoleum they were trekking towards grow higher in the sky, and they were now near enough to faintly make out the ornate bas-reliefs on its massive walls. They would be there by sunset, if sunset had any meaning in this city of eternal nuclear winter.
“No, there’s more to it. There’s got to be.”
Jesus Prime sighed, looked wistfully at the ruins around him, and sat down. He bade Dreadspawn sit as well, taking advantage of the moment’s peace they had found between skirmishes.
“It was Starscream’s fault. We were at war with Iacon centuries before. Shotmaker was ruler then, before the Republic had even appeared.”
“Shotmaker was the one who used prisoners as conscripts, right?”
“Right.”
“Is that what the Havocons were? Conscripted criminals?”
“Yes, to an extent. They were the most dangerous individuals the city had to muster. Violent criminals were not executed, they were sent to the pits to be trained, in the event of war.”
“Did it work?”
“Too well. Without the Havocons, Tarn would not have resorted to nuclear war.”
“Oh.”
“They appointed me to lead. I blame myself. I drove those men to extents to which they would never have pushed themselves. I created this monster.”
At this, Prime stood again, and without another word, began his march to the south of the city once more. Dreadspawn followed suit, his mind swimming with thoughts. On one hand, his respect for his compatriot was growing with each shred of history he learned – but on the other, his apprehension towards their mission, and their chances of completing it, were diminishing. What worried him most was Prime’s seeming fear regarding this Havocon Division, the platoon he once commanded. What kind of army inspires fear in its officers?
“What happened to them after the war?”
“The Havocons?”
“Yeah.”
“They rule this city.”
“What?”
“They rule it. They’re the only ones who live here, and they defend it fiercely. To them, the war is not over – and it has grown in scope.”
“Would they welcome you back?”
“I doubt they would know me as I am now.”
“Then what do we do?”
“We march.”
“South?”
“South.”
“I told you, Dread, they were a platoon in the Vos-Tarn war.”

Re: Echoes of the Past Tournie Discussion Thread

I'd agree with that, except that Pred missions are so few and far between at times that I'm having trouble catching 0's
I'm all for 5's

Ok how about one of the Elligable kills in the first 50 missions

18 missions of the first 50 are unusable for one of the following reasons:
One side didn't show
Allied factions fighting each other
Unknowns
At least 3 of those missions got attacked by the unknowns

If it hadnt been mentioned to me, I think that's the stance I would take.

If I am to change it, I need a lot more feedback from the bots, and where the hell are the maximals?
If I havnt heard enough suport from the other side by the end of today, I wont change it, same if I hear enough people from any side say they do not want it.

First 100 missions
Claimable kills:

Eligable Missions Break-Down
Retreat = One side retreated, no kills
A v M, D v P = Allies fighting
Bots, Cons, Maxis, Preds = only that side showed up
Unknowns = Either noone showed up or The Unknowns ate the logs
Usable = Missions between 'Good and Evil' that resulted in at least 1 kill

*shrugs* I wouldn't mind seeing 5's as viable missions as I've been having problems finding missions I can hop in, but as the Bots and Maximals have been keeping up more or less, I'm obviously not the only bot playing.
