Bubble Gums Journal – Entry 1

Day 1, Entry 1.
Finished training and now an operative! Gauss train to Mort got derailed by mancheens. We killed some then checked cabins found 3 wraithraiders and 2 stormers. More mancheens came and we killed stealthy ones while raiders snipped others. In the end they retreated. Luna had to hit Barnaby and Arny with kickstart as flux sort of ran out with them. Medkit belonged to dead frother and Arny accidently got hit with Rush. He’s a little bit pissed off. We got debriefed and it turns out that we shouldn’t have killed the insane frother. Made 20c and 150c team bounty.

SLA Industries

Last weekend, that’s not the one that ended yesterday but the one the week before, just felt the strange need to clarify! But if this sits in a word document for more than a day that statement is now a load of rubbish.

Any way the last gaming weekend (I won’t be so slack this also becomes false) we did, we started a new campaign of SLA. A very interesting game, all happiness and fun! (If you’re off you head on drugs, a very real possibility in this setting). It’s a very dark and gritty game with strong elements of horror and desperation. More info can be found here . The game is also quite old btw.

So my new character is a Brainwaster called Bubble Gum. Her cheerful name, the addition of neon pink highlights to her black hair, her toned figure, amazing good looks, and neon pink colours to her equipment belie a media seeking, bloodthirsty psychopath.

My character is the melee combat specialist of our group with a customised chain axe, and enhancement as one of her primary ebon skills. She will gradually improve her ranged combat skills as well for when you just can’t or really shouldn’t get close to your target.

The rest of the team is another Brainwaster called Barnaby who specialises in the Blast power. Bubble Gum has given him the designation of Ranged Support (AOE Capable). Then there is an Ebon called Luna who has investigative based skills along with a good rifle skill. Her designation is therefore Ranged Support. Finally there is a second Ebon called Arny whose areas of expertise are scouting and Ebb Healing. Bubble Gum’s designation for him is obviously Healer!

For those who know the system this is a bit of an unusual group! As Ebon’s and Brainwasters really don’t like each other. But from Bubble Gum’s point of view Luna and Arny may be a couple of wimpy fairies but they’re her wimpy fairies! And if any one dares to hurt the healer they can expect to be meeting her chain axe very shortly!

This should be an interesting game and I’m even writing a journal for bubble gum in the game. The first entry will be copied to a subsequent post.

Bubble Gum’s starting character sheet can be found here – we used 350 rather than 300 points for initial character creation. And where cruelly limited to a maximum starting Protect skill of 4!

Midgard at War - DAY1 Report

Logged onto Castle of Heroes last night before going to bed with the intention of just making sure something was happening in each of my castles only to discover we are at war.

Looks like Narayan from Harem got fed up with some of us refusing to either join his guild – with a name like that??? As if!, Or become a training guild for harem! So he went to war with us instead!

Then I noticed I was down 3 castles which got me a little bit annoyed (at the same time it restored some of my interest in the game!) So I went on a quick scout and attack run to reclaim what is mine! After which I cashed in every resource outside of my home castle and brought about 9 combat scrolls including a cheaper one I’ll never use just to empty the castle of gold!

I can’t remember how many forces I had in those other castle but it was approximately 1000 elite archers in the elven one and 2000 direwolfs in the orcish castle. The undead castle had no troops as it was just a castellian training facility. Serves me right for not shifting them back to the capital I suppose!

In re-claiming my castles I perma-lost 74 Fairy Dragons and 4 Elite Archers, while members of Harem perma-lost – 421 Unicorns, 229 Elite Archers, 92 Elven Archers, 600 Lichkings, 720 Ghost Dragons.

This morning I was going to log in an throw down an 8 hour diplomacy card to cover my time at work but I had a really bad night and was running late! So my plan of making raiding attacks may be delayed as I once again retake 1-4 of my secondary castles!

O and the blackie’s also declared on us as well...

In the weirdest Places

Why wandering around Newgrounds today I came across a game called Alice is Dead and its following two parts. Was actually really impressed with these :)

But what I was really really impressed with was the song "Alice is Dead" in part three, and unknown to me - cus I'm more interested in games I suppose - it turns out Newgrounds has music on it too!!!! And the song was by an aussie called hania. And there is tonnes of it - I know I like two songs but its time to see what else their is.

WOW and Stuff

Before I begin, I will admit I am currenly very very drunk!!!
I am a gamer, a roleplayer, hey a nerd, a geek and proud of it!
Tonight I have been thinking about my time playing world or warcraft! And I have some things to say!
I miss  the friends I made years ago! Vagar who was on my first ever instance in blackthathom deaps - we 3 man'd it with a rogue over several hours and many many deaths, and then Tsuabasa and Taylar who I see screen shots of in my archive when we where leveling upto 60 so long ago! I always regret leaving our guild Twilight Talons for a startup raiding guild while you where on holiday Taylar. I love you hon and always will even tho you will probably never read this!
Moving on I found a couple of weeks ago my Drunken Dragons T-Shirt!!!! And it reminds me that of every guild since twilight talon I have ever been in this is the one that most felt like home! I so regret the disband and recreate where I was asked to sit in judgement of who should be allowed back in.
From my DD days I miss so many people! Especially Oona (Isabella) I remember our runs in Strat and Scholomance where my comment on teamspeak of "opps" was always handled with humour and fun! I also miss you babe and tho I'm crap at sending messages I really hope you are doing well! Of course from then I missed loads of other people :)
So since Eylisum and Eureka where murdered - no other word is justified - I've only really been on the game to finally get my "insane in the membrane" achievement!!! 6month overdue when I got it but I got it :)
Now I'm waiting for patch 3.9 when hunter ditch mana! Something which would make Kersenka soooo happy if he was still around! WHere did you go my friend??? I miss you too! Then I shall be back to WoW again - my addiction, my pleasure. my fun! And I have to decide what to do!!!! Will my friends Avid (where did you go you dwarfen twat!), Akuru (the priest of wiping!), Dhark (who has had so many chars since the rogure) and Avin - (whose name I have forgotten in my very drunken stat- real id don't show char names.....) All come back to the Alliance or will Drunken Dragons be willing to take back a huner who left years ago? Addy? what do you say??
While checking stuff on wow - I saw a message for Kers a week ago :D :D makes me smile :)

Ok now enough about wow - despite it once being my life and come cataclysm will possible again! I have one final drunken though to say - WHY O WHY do I constantly obsese about an ex who I will never hold again?

God I need help! Some one to get me out of my rut! - So looking for a slightly bossy women (red hair a major plus!!! - see Looking back at women in tv I've fancies their is a trend - Gillian Anderson, Alison Hanagan [willow], Leta Alexandra [babylon 5], and rencently Felicia Day - Red heads all (even if died in the shows that was the colour!!!!) - And fun, gamer a bonus, into rock, metal, synphonic rock, nu metal ect also a plus!!!

Going to shut up now as I may be sobering up!!!!!!
