Fugazi

Of course! It's only fair that the congratulations thread specialist should be treated to two simultaneous congratulations threads, right? But I like the title!

Galen frowns at the snake bite, but the effects of the venom are already fading away. "Hurray for guardian angels and frenzies! Those dirty critters never stood a chance! Now, which way is it Russel?"

What a fabulous selection! My favourites are: 1) All your monuments are belong to us (CamelBoy68) - 1 point 7) Art Deco (lisqr) - 1 Point 10) My third wish (Skafte) - 1 Point

Congratulations Admiral Cam! Now let's see the rum! Oh wait, I have that deja vu feeling...

Me, me! Mafia history: I have been lucky enough to take part in Eurodina (a challenging first game), Werewolf (Harriet the Slut did all the hard work ), The Forest (I still can’t believe that I was chosen to take part in this All-Star game!), Belleville (a great concept), The Baritones 3 (what a terrific scum team!), Prison Riot! (rotten luck!) and the Curse of Imhotep (curse the bwankie! ) Conflicts: Sleep or Mafia? Memorable false roleclaim: Off the top of my head, in Werewolf Inconspicuous played a great “werewolf hunter turned town vigilante” , while in fact he was a werewolf bodyguard/killer and carried on until he was the last scum alive. He certainly deflected suspicion admirably for most of the game! Edit: Just read Rick's sign-up, did Inky claim doctor? My memories are hazy -- in any case, he did so well!

Galen felt relief as the last of the spiders fell down. "Disgusting things." I will attack Snake A from the front row.

Galen was impressed with Cronk's guardian angel, who was really proving invaluable in this fight where they were badly outnumbered. "Well, no chance I could ever become a paladin myself. I will try to finish off Cave Rat C."

Congratulations Admiral Cam! Now let's see the rum!

Thanks for the review! It's a nice little set that captures well the Classic Town vehicle design. As small and simple as it this vehicle is, it's heartbreaking to think that quite a few of these parts aren't available any longer. The grey motorcycle wasn't exactly common either, if I recall correctly.

Congratulations Cornelius, you have been doing a great job in Licensed! Now get this man a proper rank tag!

That's the way things get done around here!

Galen is thrilled by the blast and the damage he had caused to the enemies. "Ah, I wish I had bought more of those ice bombs! Sword of Bashing, now it's your turn to shine! I will also attack Spider C from the front row. If already dead, I will move on to Cave Rat C."

"Oh, I missed that bit of information! This sword is even more valuable that I had thought!"

Galen is startled by the sudden apparition of so many creatures. "Argh, I hate spiders! I don't care about the other critters, but do me a favour and get rid of the spiders as quickly as possible! I agree that ice bombs are specially useful against this vermin. My best option would be to throw one right away, though it won't help against the free hits. The Cave Mongrel, the Vampire Bat and the Rats are the most powerful foes and we would be well advised to target them all." Galen throws an ice bomb.

I don't have any more questions, but seeing that we're off to explore caves perhaps a couple of torches would be handy. Your Highness, could your men provide us with a few torches before we head for the hill? This is fascinating news, Sarick. By ambassador of the Dragons, do you mean actual dragons or Dragon Knights?

I'll try not to peek!

It certainly would add to the gaming experience, but wouldn't it be difficult to avoid 'spoilers' in this thread?

My mistake! It was there all along. I didn't think you had seen my post and I edited quickly, shouldn't have done that! I think my power should be changed to 11 though.

Oh, thank you for your offer Master Paladin! Hopefully I will be more useful to our party wielding the Sword of Bashing. I will make sure to return it by the end of this quest! OOC: I assume that the Sword of Bashing is considered a longsword, not a greatsword? Rogues are only allowed the former. I have updated my stats with the new weapon.

Greetings Emperor. We are most honored to have been chosen to serve you, we will not fail in the tasks ahead. We will do everything in our power to help the Dastan Empire drive back these invaders. You mention that parties other than the Lion Knights might be involved. Do you have any information about who these may be? (I turn to my companions) My previous adventures have left me with only a throwing dagger as a weapon. I believe that this is a ranged weapon that cannot be used in close combat and needs to be retrieved after each attack. If any of you would be so kind as to borrow me one of your unused weapons -- if you have any -- until I can buy something more useful, I would be most appreciative!

Galen headed to Portia's Potion Shack and bought a Remedy, a Venom and an Ice Bomb for a total of 25 Gold. 25 - 25 = 0 gold left.

Sitting in the stairs, Galen watched with interest the newcomer pin a new note to the board. A hero walked to the board then glanced in his direction -- he had been chosen! There was no rush though -- he was as ready as he would ever be. No last minute shopping, what little gold he had left wouldn't buy him anything useful. He laid back and wondered who else would leave for Dastan with him. And whether any would come back. Then he remembers. Taking off a boot he thrusts a hand inside it, pokes around a bit and produces a handful of gold pieces. 'Emergency funds. Perhaps something can be said for a few more potions.'

Translating: Rick doesn't want more work than he already has! Some worthy CUUSOO projects may not warrant a whole thread (I'm thinking new part suggestions for instance). On the other hand, it's true that most projects could be introduced as MOCs in dedicated threads.

I'm having second thoughts... Using one post per member is not ideal promotion-wise, as additional projects by a member could be missed. Perhaps one post per project would work best, as long as each post is brief. The indexing would be more work-intensive, but then it all depends on the volume of entries.
