Nirur sat in his office, enjoying his non-descript alcoholic beverage. Looking at the calender, then suddenly looking over at his nearest subordinate, he spoke. "Well? How did yesterday's activities go?"

"Uh, I don't know. I'm not cleared to even know what you do here or who you are, I'm just the janitor. I'm not even directly employed by you."

"Well, get out there and find someone who can tell me what's going on, or I'll just start firing missiles randomly into the city."

When I saw this, I was tempted to not send your turn, just to see if you would.

Ok, recruitment really isn't that hard. Tell me what you struggle with and I'll try and be clearer.

Yeah, every vehicle gets automatic health because I didn't think they were sturdy enough.

Just an idea, perhaps there should be some sort of GM-made news broadcast that covers the public-known events of every turn. Say, something is bombed, a skirmish takes place, or other major events that would normally be covered in this situation.

In a certain part of the city, a man who was not entirely civilized was about to go to work. He had been trained by the Blue World Orchestra for the purpose of recruitment and discipline, thorough extreme measures. The Human mind was a fragile thing, he thought, as he inspected his tools...scalpel...taser...pliers...

He himself had been one of the blind, a long time ago. His rebirth, as it were, was painful, but now he realized it was necessary. He was greater now, stronger. And no matter how the sad thing in front of him plead, cursed or cried, he would not relent. It was for it's own good.


 
OOC: Twiggie: Well he should do one anyway to let us know a new turn is done, Like

"Weather-sunny with a chance of rain, latest news-no executions or explosions."

This game is already confusing enough without there being no way to determine when a new turn starts lol

Happy?

Turns sent, by the way so I'm taking turn 5 actions.

Sorry for not waiting for you, Mephansteras, but I felt like I'd been too delayed anyway.

COUGH!

Ok, faction info sent in a little while ago. Are you still waiting on anything from my, Gruffy?

Wasn't sure if I should announce my presence before or after this turn was resolved, though.

This is the Thursday Night News,

Our top story, four guards are found dead in the Eastern Docklands. The four guards were responisible for keeping the spare sets of keys safe, for nearby boat owners. A boat was also stolen, a small powerboat. The authorities believe this was committed by one of the cities "factions" due to the proffesional nature of the job.

*Cuts to a (NPC) police officer*

"This was not a spur of the moment robbery, this was planned. And each guard was killed by a single perfect head shot, the mark of a trained marksman or marksmen."

*Returns to the anchor*

28 people are missing, believed to be kidnapped, in the Mid-City area. There are no current clues to the kidnappings, although, oddly enough, each of the next-of-kin to the victims have received an unsigned letter stating simply; "Your dearest is unharmed. They are serving a greater purpose.

Finally, 4 helicopter have been stolen in the Western Industrial District, no further information is available at this time.


Mephansteras, your info is fine, feel free to send an action for turn 5 whenever you're ready.

Rumors have begun to circulate in the shady parts of town regarding a new organized crime syndicate known only as The Dark Wind. Their actions have been quiet up until now, but they seem to be making a power bid amongst the city's turbulence.

No, although all this threatening of city-wide destruction has put me in the mood for chaos.

Expect a GM controlled faction with infinite resources and no objective other than destruction...
