Haven't been in the game for a while, and I have a question...

Postby Thanatos Prime » Sun Jan 28, 2007 7:22 pm

Just started back into HMW, really like the new improvements, but I noticed that the battle blades are out of stock. Is there some new way to get weapons restocked? Is it now once a month or something? Or is it like old times when we had to beg for a restock? :P

Just curious, and in the meantime is the Direct-Current Electrical Laser worth the 44 grand??

Thanks in advance!

Well, no more restocks until I add in a weapon mission to sit alongside the existing armour mission, and/or am moved to pity by the lack of weapons in the armoury. Whichever comes first. ;)

Yep! We've even got a weapon for that eventuality already in the armory.

Ah, nice Glyph! 8)

I can't wait for those missions, once I get my team working at full potential again that is. They really suck now. :P

Since there's much more important things than adding new missions at the moment, and pity is a foreign emotion to the one known as Glyph...

Oh yeah, we're quite literally going to be waiting forever and a day... :-P

They only pop up when armor in those ranges (don't know the exact cut off points) are getting low. So the 6+ armor missions may have never run, except for some testing.

We need people back in missions? When did that happen? I've seen the Tournament mission participants carry over to now. I don't think people need motivation to get into missions--they're already there. I think if we need to motivate people at all, it's to join the heavily outnumbered Decepticons.

But I do like the concept of weapon restocks through missions. The restock of armor through missions was really successful--maybe it could work for the weapons as well?

Word.

What do you mean? We can just use Dynamax's arms and legs for weapons. Sure they will apart just like Dy does but it's worth a try :P
