"Officers, this person, along with many others, has been sent here to stage an anti-American coup. They cannot be reasoned with. It's also possible that the rest of the police force has been subverted by her accomplices. I have been brought here to help in destroying this insurgent threat while it's in its infancy. As such, would you kindly execute her?"

Nunzillor, your sentence is death.

Immaterial holds his head in his hands. The man died for him, and what could he do to avenge his death? And what of the others he sent off to hold the line?
After a moment, he looks up at the two still by his side, and with a heavy heart, orders "Go. Now. Run before he gets here. I'll only slow you down. But spread our message. Let the world know of the atrocities the Wiki Wars allowed! GO!"
Once they're out of range of hearing, Immaterial fumbles with his new phone, calling 911, impersonating a local politician's voice (local sheriff or sheriff's deputy, if he can pull it off), claiming to be pinned down by a Wiki Warrior, with multiple wounded and dead, requesting immediate police and medical response.
Order my followers to run and spread the message of resistance! Call 911, and using voice acting and politics, get help!

Round 16: A New God
Location: Denmark, Wisconsin
Weather Conditions: Snowing (7 inches)
Time: Late Afternoon

Twinwolf rummages around the hardware store for anything of use. Even if he can't apply to his cannon, a Sledgehammer is a tool of versatility, so he takes that up. [6] Speaking of versatility, he nabs a Multitool off a shelf as well. Carrying a sufficient amount of "confiscated" goods, he goes back to his Kartouwe because he can't just leave it there can he? Well, he could, considering it's a giant artillery piece and it's not like a person (or even a group of people) could move it quickly. Still, it would be an awful waste if something happened to it, wouldn't it? Twin finds it right where he had left it, although falling snow is starting to coat its exterior.

Nunzillor's eyes scan the police that have the guns pointed at her, and without missing a beat she skiis towards Hawk at a blistering pace. (1+2 vs. 9) Just as she starts to move, the sounds of synchronized pistol fire go off. (7 vs. 4) A single bullet hits Nunzillor in the left forearm and she drops her ski, tripping over and falling into the snow. With her wounded and incapacitated for the moment, two of the officers move over towards her to restrain and handcuff her.

Hawk watches icily as the police officers around him attempt to subdue Nunzillor. (4 vs. 10) Before they can seize her, Nunzillor scrambles to her feet and skis off down towards the residential area of the town. The cops try and balance on the ice as Nunzillor makes her speedy escape. Hawk yells at the officer, "What are you doing? Shoot her! She's getting away?" The cop looks at Hawk with disgust, "Sir, I respect your authority but we can't just shoot someone who is fleeing. It's a last resort, we only did it because your life was in danger and now she isn't hurting anyone. We can't just shoot someone who isn't a threat, where do you think you are, Baltimore?"

Immaterial soberly stares into the alleyway where he hears one of his men cry out in pain before going silent. He turns to his last two remaining able-bodied militants, "Go. Now. Run before he gets here. I'll only slow you down. But spread our message. Let the world know of the atrocities the Wiki Wars allowed! GO!" Both of them hesitate, reluctant to abandon their leader, but when he stares them down they quickly obey and flee the scene. Once they are out of earshot, Immaterial whips his phone out of his pocket and quickly punches in 911. (6+2) "Hello, this is Bill. Bill....Shrewp. Bill Shrewp, the District Attorney, who is being attacked by one of those Wikipedia Warriors downtown, unprovoked. Several of my colleagues are wounded and dead. I need immediate medical and police assistance."
"We'll be down there as soon as we can sir, try and find a safe spot until then."

Immaterial's back-up doesn't arrive as soon as he wishes; NAV comes out of the alleyway resting his Golf Club on his shoulder like it was a sword, the bulky club end of it stained with fresh blood. Immaterial looks around for a way out as NAV comes closer, casually walking up to him, swinging his 9-iron around like it was the cane of a stage entertainer. Suddenly, possible salvation appears as the militant that fled from NAV earlier comes back, and packing heat! (2 vs. 7) NAV ducks down as the militant aims a revolver at him and opens fired. Wanting to avoid being shot, NAV cocks his arm back and throws his club at his assailant like it was a javelin. (3+2 vs. 6) The militant weaves to the side as the club flies by him, missing him by inches. NAV curses and pulls out his rifle as a proper way to deal with this new threat. (10) Taking advantage of the diversion, Immaterial runs through an abandoning building and out the other side. He keeps running until a police car with sirens blaring finds him, and stops in front of him. Additionally, he can hear the cries of an ambulance in the distance. Two officers rush out of the car to greet him, "Are you hurt Mr. Shrewp? Where did you last see your attacker?" (Pain has ended.)

Execute points to the portal, "I come from beyond that portal, there, I came here merely to arm myself and be gone, I mean no further trouble." The Native Warparty Leader looks at the glowing purple portal before pulling a few of his officers back to confer with them. After some tense whispering that Execute is unable to hear, they all return. The Leader gets down on one knee, prompting his two officers to do so as well, and then all of the other warriors around follow suit. The leader speaks with his head bowed to Execute, "Unlike those other pale men who came from across the waters, we know that you are a true God, as you have not only the power to open up portals from the Otherworld, you are able to speak our tongue. We will follow you from now on, whatever your name is, Father. I will not order you, but I pray and beg for you to help us to defeat those invading false-Gods. If you do, you will gain the trust and loyalty of the others, I am sure of it."
Execute has gained Loyal Followers:
1 War Party Commander (War Banner, Obsidian Sword, Cloth Armor, Hardwood Helmet)
3 Officers (Obsidian Swords, Cloth Armor, Hardwood Helmets)
14 Soldiers (Obsidian Spears, Bows, Hardwood Helmets)


Abstract declares that he will be the savior to the people of Denmark and offers his vehicle for evacuation. Sports cars aren't exactly built for capacity, so rather than taking any large group or families, he settles for one couple and a single women, who all hadn't dismissed his political campaign and asked him to leave. He then drives off South towards Cooperstown, slightly delayed by the increasing snowfall by reaching there within a few minutes. He parks the car on the village's central road. "We're here!" His passengers look around: there's a single barn and a few stores nearby. "Where are we supposed to go?" One of them asked.

Ukranian Ranger chuckles. "You think this just a school for some silly brats who want to learn a parody of Kung-Fu? I am a Kung-Fu master, no, a Kung-Fu GOD!" (3+2) Ranger follows this up with a fairly impressive jumping roundhouse kick. She is generally ignored, except for one skinny teen who looks like he would skip half of the days in school. "Hey Kung-Fu lady, that kick was rad. I would like to chill and learn how to kick ass with you, dude."

Weather Report: The snowfall remains constant. Expect a foot of snow by mid-night.

Fff totally forget to post an action. So my gas tank is totally ruined huh. Well, doubt I'll be able to drive the car like that. I need to find a way to make some money, so I can get all these injuries treated.

Reload my weapons. Take the keys to the car, the toolbox, and the Shloer with me(unless I can't carry it. Then leave it behind for now), and make my way to a pawn shop, or a similar store. Don't go inside yet if I find one really nearby.

Even though this game is on a fast schedule, if you're not in a combat situation, missing a turn or two won't hurt you that much really, at worst it will slow your plans.

New Poll: Kill-count Kill "Absorption"

Here's a new feature I've thought about implementing that I would like feedback on. In order to make the game more competitively balanced and to encourage new/weaker players to take on stronger/experienced players, I had an idea to implement Kill-count Absorbtion, which would mean that killing a player would mean getting adding half of the killed players kill count (rounded-down) to your own kill count. (If they had 0 or 1 kills, you would still get +1 to your Kill-count.) For example, if you had 1 Kill and you killed someone with 6 Kills, your total Kill-count would increase to 4. There are three ways this could work:

A. Absorb half your opponent's kills and gain that number of articles as well. (Kill someone with 8 Kills, you get +4 Kills and 4 new Articles.)
B. Absorb half your opponent's kills, always get 1 article.
C. Don't implement absorption at all.

You can vote on the poll here.

Feedback appreciated.
