The Energon Pub

Alright, Autobots! Wake up! Round 3 of the war for Cybertron is on! As some may know, we have elected to attack Vos this round. Psychout just posted the intro to and rules for this round - that can be found here and the sign-up thread here.

The tl;dr version is this: using this forum (Iacon), we must decide as a faction on a team to "capture." Once we've decided who to go for, our mission is to record kills on all 12 members of that person's team. We keep everything to ourselves here until we have recorded all the team members we need. Then the next round starts and we repeat this until a week has passed. There are more details and rules in Psych's thread, so everybody go check it out and sign up now!

Oh, and the prize is we would get to design a new weapon to be included in the Weapons store.

So now, who should our first target be?

First off, I think everyone participating should post what levels they operate at. We need to try to pick targets that the majority of us can get to.

My 'Bots are in the Level 2-4 range.

One thing to keep in mind is that you can only participate in the hunt if you sign up Anyone who wants to help bring home a square should clicky the linky Dragonslayer was awesome enough to post and link your team page.

Hmmm, targets...so many targets! We should likely choose a target based on the people who sign up. Picking Sustain or Wrath or an even higher level team might be difficult if we only have mid-range levels to SL their team with If we get some higher level support to sign up, it'd open up the possibilities to teams with 7s+.

My suggestion would be Overwatch. He plays often, it seems, and has a character level range between 6 and 1. Not easy, not hard, lots of chances. Also, I'm always a bit partial to SLing Bun-Bun's guys All but one of his guys are level 3.

These are just random thoughts I'm pretty open for hunting anyone!

EDIT: Your turn to beat me to the punch

I'm operating level range 2-7

I like the idea of going with Overwatch. That will allow pretty much everyone to get in on the action. Psychout also might be a good choice. He doesn't have the level spread Overwatch does, but he does operate at 3-6 so most of us should be seeing him quite a bit (I know I do!).

All of my bots are currently level 3.

We must all be thinking along the same track as I was going to suggest Psychout & Bun Bun as possible targets.
Naval Strike is another possibility.

Right now, my team is levels 4 and 5 (got a couple who may move up to six soon, though)... Looking at my recent opposition, Psychout, NS, Overwatch, Xenos Prime and Bad Wolf all seem to have good spreads of levels, 1-7 inclusive.

Only Psych' and Overwatch of those have declared to play, though... of course, "Unsigned teams can be chosen as targets.", so that's not necessarily a disqualification.

Personally, I vote for either Overwatch, who I see in missions frequently and so hunting will be easy (hunting is easy, it's catching your prey that's hard, that's why it's called 'hunting' and not 'finding'...) or Bun-Bun... who I suspect, because of a certain rivalry, will be suggesting the Decepticons hunt Wingz in turn...

Whatever would you mean by this, oh kindest of Turbos

They can try, but that might be too predictable because of the rivalry.

Also, good call on Bad Wolf! She'd be a fun one to hunt at some point during the event, also!

If we're concerned about being obvious how about we make Bun Bun the 2nd target?

I propose the following order
Psychout --> Bun Bun --> Bad Wolf

Yay or nay?

I'm good with that if everyone else is.

Sounds good to me!

I'm for it. I owe that toaster a good fork in the heating coils, after all...

So, when do we start recording our 'captures'?

We start at 6pm (GMT+1) on the 31st.

*Lets loose with a manical cackle...*

Sounds good.
Mainly levels 1-3 here.

should i go for burn?

I'd love to see how I could help. Working with a split of 0's and 1's here.

So long as you sign up in this thread, you'll be able to help us get these kills Psychout might be a little difficult for your level range, but the other two hunts will be very doable for level 1s!

The more we have signed up, the better, my good sir! Join in and have much fun!

Indeed, and if you join the Hell missions you have some chance of getting the higher level targets. You never know when you might get that lucky shot!

Alright Femmes and Mechs, this kicks off in an hour
