Heroica RPG General Discussion

[Sandy]

I had a dream about the event last night actually. Sandy published it and it really dicked over all the other QMs/storylines, and I was really pissed and we got into a shouting match about it and Sandy said I had no idea how much money he had invested into the game so far and how much it cost to keep afloat and besides it was his game he could do what he wanted. And so I quit! But then Sandy showed me how much it cost (like, millions) because along with the event Sandy also had launched a new website for Heroica. And it wasn't a RPG anymore, but rather an animated television show. And Sandy had also signed a deal where every episode we had to besmirch CBS. It was a weird dream.

Whoa...

I hope I at least looked good in your dream.

PS. I haven't really invested any money into this game directly, except when I sent the physical prizes for the building contest to the winners.

[JimBee]

No worries! Take your time.

Yea, what did Sandy look like? How do you dream about someone you've never met in person? Was everyone a minifigure? I still picture him as a woman, specifically his character from Eurodina...

...Except on further review that was Alice's character... maybe another mafia game?

"Gee Haldor, how do we gain the support of the clan leaders of Baltarok?"

"I'm glad you asked, Dyric! We'll cook them a sizzling chicken sauté, with my brand new Cookmaster Non-Stick Frying Pan TM! Look - the grease comes right off, 80% more effectively then the competitor's pans."

"This sauté is delicious, human."

"I'll say!"

Cookmaster - bringing the peace, without the grease!

I'm sold, except one thing. What are the stats? My Frying Pan (WP:1, +1 max. health) is already pretty good.

[Sandy]

Speaking of which - Sandy, could you please make sure everyone from #138's Hall stats are updated? I retrained as Black Knight, Karie's a Minstrel, I've got Great rep with Shadeaux and Karie's +1 rep with Hinckwell.Ah - that makes more sense.

Thanks for notifying me, everything should be up to date now.

[JimBee]

Thanks for notifying me, everything should be up to date now.

It's fine that I haven't used my Letter of Rec yet, right? I'll of course notify you when I do.

[Lind Whisperer]

Thanks for notifying me, everything should be up to date now.

Everything looks good, thanks!

Hahaha! I'm still embarrassed for posing as a female for so long. It was fun while it lasted, though.

I usually do dye my hair blonde every summer, this one being no exception.

That's totally not my bike, by the way.

[Endgame]

DAMN IT! It turns out the maintenance didn't get my computer fixed by today after all (I went in and asked), so launching the events tonight seems unlikely. I can try with my friend's computer, since I have allthe pictures uploaded to Photobucket, but I kinda need my files for the event too...

I'll keep you up to date.

That sucks.

Please do keep us updated.

I don't know the nature of the event, but (speaking for myself here ) even a tiny glimpse would be better than a two week agonizing wait.

[KotZ]

I never pictured you Sandy decked out in green. Always imagined you in red or yellow, not sure why.

Very well, since it seems it will be a few weeks until the event (or rather, the final stage of the main storyline) can begin, I will provide you with the main illustrations for the three political parties involved.

Let the speculations continue!

Oh no, green is totally my color!

[Flipz]

Wh-buh--that's not the division I was hoping for at all!

Well, Shadeaux and Ji Pei, I suppose...isn't too bad. Sucks to have to go against the Ziegfrieds, though.

[CMP]

Wh-buh--that's not the division I was hoping for at all!

Didn't we know the division ahead of time?

[Flipz]

Didn't we know the division ahead of time?

We had speculated that it was going to be Shadeaux-Ziegfried-Bonapartes and Hinckwell-Invision-Ji Pei based on physical locations in Eubric. I'm...actually not sure what the basis for this split is.

[CMP]

The only switch is Shadeuax and Hinckwell and they're entirely interchangeable. Plus this color scheme matches better.

Betraying your family. Classy, man.

[Kintobor]

Clearly Ulric's master plan involves tossing banana peels everywhere, thus causing the houses and residents to slip everywhere.

[Khorne]

The factions don't seem weird to me at all. First faction are the "old" power and the second one are the newer factions, threatening the old ones. Not that I care that much really, because #teamwolfgang. Just look at that hideout .

[Flipz]

The Shadeaux have more likable children.

For Arthur, the thing is that the Ziegfrieds are his family, but so is Miirym, and he can't risk losing her. When it was Shadeaux-Ziegfried, it was family versus friends (being against Ji Pei), so family won out. In this case, it's family vs. family and friends, which is a much murkier choice.

Betraying your family. Classy, man.

Miirym's family too. If he sides against Shadeaux, he gets his "daughter" taken away by CPS...someone, I guess.

[Endgame]

Shadeaux trained you as Dragoon, they didn't give you the dragon - Heroica did.

[Sandy]

I'm...actually not sure what the basis for this split is.

Like I said, these are political parties. The Sungold Alliance are traditionalists, while the Crescent Union represents progress.

[Endgame]

Also, uh... I think the 135 party just failed. Farfarello is gonna cast Dance Macabre on Namyrra since she's asleep and that'll be that.

[K-Nut]

I was gonna side with the Ziegfrieds anyways, but I'm really hesitant about going against Hoke, Arthur, and their Dragoon brethren.

[Kintobor]

You've got Minstrels backing you. We can cast Lucky.

[Flipz]

Like I said, these are political parties. The Sungold Alliance are traditionalists, while the Crescent Union represents progress.

Which is what Arthur aligns with (heck, if Zepher allows it he's going to rejoin Heroica post-139 as a representative of the Golden Crusade). It's just hard for Arthur to split his family like that.

Important Question: Since this is seeming to be more of a status-quo shift than a singular event, does this mean that all reputation gained from here on out has to be along party lines? Because that could get a little screwy for some things, Quest planning-wise.

You've got Minstrels backing you. We can cast Lucky.

So can our Dragons.

Beware.

[Dragonfire]

Interesting division... Avalanche would probably go for the middle faction (or maybe Wolfgang )

Sandy, can you clarify whether our present characters will partake in the event, or whether you will create new characters for us to play as, like CAT?
