(someone should tally up how many apes've been killed, though, just to make sure we don't toast more than actually exist.  )

Tallied it up.
There are 7 apes(assuming Rick missed every single time he shot at an ape). If 1 is at Aarons location, therefore the rest, 6, are at the building with the main group or whatever.

Sphoiler between me and monkey.

On a different note, MonkeyHead, would you be interested in at some point setting up a duel between Arthur and Karl, with Arthur attempting to shut down Karls systems through emergency shutoffs(put in place in case Karl went against orders) and Karl attempting to shoot at Arthur while half his systems are being shut down? A duel most definately must take place simply due to Karl being ordered to, but lets try to agree on the nature of the duel.

[MonkeyHead]

How I see Arthur and Karl going...

I like the idea of some kind of dynamic stale mate - you lack the power to hurt me directly, but can prevent me from harming you... no, even better, following some kind of scuffle, you offering some kind of release or protection from the control tech (subverting them in some way allowing me some greater freedom, preferably without cutting me off from my military infrastructure as i will need a lot of ammo as this develops) of my captors in exchange for not persuing the kill order... of course, I have no problem with some blackmail from you, where i can be the hired violence.

The blackmail thing would act like a nice beginning to my villainy. But how exactly does the military control you? Maybe I could fake a "killed a dude" signal, which would make them believe you killed me, while you actually didnt. And I could get you killed simply by proving that I am still alive.

Plus it cuts me off from military tech for the time being if I want Karl on a leash, effectively keeping me from being OP and pulling nukes out of my ass.

Yea, on a leash isnt where I would want to be character wise... but morally dubious use of my talents to maintain a status quo would be fun. He sure isnt above harming others to keep himself secure and safe.

As I see it, only a minor confrontation is needed, where I am unable to "target" you properly, and you "read" my systems and see how to use them to your advantage in addition to a fake mission sucess signal - be this feeding me better or reliable intel as part of the deal or whatever esle you could concieve.

[cerapa]

Yeah. Of course it isnt a leash since both parties are screwed if the deal breaks. But expect Arthur to attempt to rectify that situation at some point. It would be a nice symbiosis at first though, Karl provides the firepower, and Arthur tell the targets. And Arthur could jam any signals that would try to mess with Karls stuff.

I had a little idea, maybe Karl is constantly broadcasting his vitals and stuff about him, and Arthur telling him could freak him out.

[MonkeyHead]

Works for me. I also like the idea that Arthur is a lil young or naive, nd karl is older and cynical... perhaps Arthur could end up in scrapes I am obliged to help you out with...

[cerapa]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Sounds good to me.

The scrapes in question could make it impossible for me to call for help by normal means so I have to call out with the radio, that Karl would pick up. And then Karl would have a choice. Kill him, or let him live?

[MonkeyHead]

All good then. Will post next early tomorrow...

As a quick rule of thumb, normally in free form games, if some body starts some sort of event, it is up to the creator to come to a conclusion(or pass it on). We had problems with people hijacking story lines in keeping up :-/, also, unannounced pc fights generally have attacks take more than one post, or is coordinated through pms.

[Dwarmin]

All right.

*knuckle crack*!

I'll try to get up a progress report today. Have to mow my lawn first. 

[jc6036]

I was thinking of drawing Kine. I might do some of the others as well.

[MonkeyHead]

that would be very cool.

[cerapa]

I was thinking of drawing Kine. I might do some of the others as well.

Drawings would be awesome.

Aint gonna kid myself though, a dude with a gun for an arm and bat-people would be far more interesting to draw than Arthur.

EDIT: Goin to bed now.

[Dwarmin]

I was thinking of something.

All these players is great, but it's way too much for one person to handle with any seriousness. What *If*, a person who wanted to create a story spun off from the thread, and only took a certain smaller amount of people? Say, 5 or 6.

The main story would still continue in the thread, of course, for anyone who wants to take up the burden. Something like this would just be for specific missions, related to story spinoffs. That way I could even continue my story, but in a better way.

Anyone like this idea?

[Riccto]

Well I like that. Now to develop my role as Super Enforcement Cop. Should I be looking for people to register, Keeping people in Reign I guess? I dont like coming up with City policy on my own.
