Event Update

AI magazine have pulled out of the AI300 due to other work commitments and it was their event, so we shall be looking for another date to run this game as a GMA experience.  I’ll keep the topic alive as there is plenty of interest and it would rock!!!

Add me to being interested! Looks like I might join in with Messer Horsewood in being Europa/Merc. I have a slightly more scifi loadout including some light body armour and modified rig/headset. Would this be allowed given the setting? It's not uber futuristic guchi gear, it just has that slightly more Battlefield 2042 look to it.

Now AI have pulled out, I have far more creative licence so will be looking at more Aliens/BSG feel that before.  Def have android class added to the load outs.  Will make the first event alot more intermate too, more like 50 players than 300 which was a tall order by my experience.  Looking at dates at the mo and will def be a Tuddenham as it will be the cost of the event right down and its got a village on it

I will keep an eye on rule7 and be sure ill update when everything is sorted.

Think Aliens Andriod with a touch of borg to start with.  As the game goes on more cool toys will get added.  Had a great way of balancing the Andriod too in that they are limited to an operational minimum due to their power cells not being fully developed yet.  The more toys you have attached the shorter you can go with out needing a juice up.

I'm pretty pumped at this idea! Did you have any prescribed looks/themes for the costumes for the factions or is it more freeform? Are the Androids going to be like a class within each faction or a faction in their own right? Want me to start designing stuff right away and if so have you got some guidelines for what you want?

Well....

As all the Colonies came from earth, they will all have Androids, but as time has past and communication between them has dwindled, they may have gone down different routes of improvement.

The key thing here is to NOT make it a rubber faced event.  Keep all the peeps looking Human, but with a few twists.  Every Platoon of Marines will have an Android as well as a Medic and so on.  Aliens is spot on with its look and feel, Sci-fi but totally believable by keeping the Fantasy down.  Also the Camo for the different Colonial Marines will change from US Woodland and Tricolour to something more affordable.  Slowly introduce the Cyborg elements and Android enhancements, whilst keeping the ground pounder Marines advancement easy and effective.

No Rubber faces...

How about plastic

J/k Are you lining this one up to be one of your cross over events Josh? Still rather interested, and I think I will be fully up for playing a merc of some description.
