Hehe, alright i get it, i get it. No more orwellian power fantasies. Think of it this way, now we have the power and resources of The entire world availiable to us, and if i had to crack a few eggs along the way, so be it. I'll step down as totalitarian dictator and allow Hegemon GWG to take power. It'll do more to aid public support anyway
Thank you.

And a deathstar made out of sticks and rocks is a beautiful picture in my mind. We should totally build one.
Dammit, Burns, we're trying to STOP the destruction of the world, not make the tools for it!

Angel lets go of Alistair.
"I...um...I kinda missed you..." Now Angel is blushing. A lot.

Hello Will, I see you all succeeded, that is good.
"Yes it is, ma'am.

"Um, Stella and I and some of our friends were talking...discussing what we wanted to do after this...and we kinda had the idea of living in one of the other universes. Just for a while, probably, and we could visit any time, the portals aren't going to destabilize for centuries at the minimum, and we'll be safer there, and we already know a bunch of people there, and my power would help us get past any problems with not having identities in that world, and um..."

No, this is the finished stage. Self testing. And again, embellishment.

Also its less that the serums work for her better, than that they work for everyone else less.
((Same difference, really. The only question is which is the baseline, and that's academic at best. I wouldn't put the difference at more than a factor of two or three for most things.))

Tabitha injects the serum. She feels a bit off; everything moves just a little slower.
What will Tabitha do now?

((Everyone.
((Including the SA folks?))

Alistair.....is somewhere.
Angel finds and hugs him.

Alistair sits at a table in the dining room, talking to Maria.
They're eating a dinner Alistair cooked. Just a bit of fish fingers.
He is still hugged.

16326
((I forgot to mention.

20 free points to all stats.))
((...For us, too? Huh.))

Angel looks for Nikki, then gives her a big hug, tail included.

Angel looks at Selina carefully.
"Oops, wrong one."

The Angels switch Selinas and then follow them through the portal.

Will smiles at Meme and goes to talk with Stella's mother.

TAngel and Angel are each with Selina. They are each currently with the wrong Selina.

Research
Develop space station sized cloaking shields.
Impossible. That violates the Second LAw of Thermodynamics or cooks the ship, your choice.

Quote
Genetically modify some methane eating bacteria (The idea is to multiply these, dump them on Calthrate deposits(Which are found on the edge of continental plateau's). Wait a year or two, and watch as a global megatsunami occurs.)
((See, creative ways to destroy the world! That's what you guys should be focusing on!)

Quote
Let's solve the space debris problem. Make a small automated garbage collector robot. Useful material is recycled. The rest is dumped back to Earth, often at Sunshine facilities.
((That's a lot to be building into one prototype.))

Quote
Release simallpox in pro Sunshine locations, target Sunshine facilities.
Any vaccination locations will be Anthrax bombed.
((Lovely.))

Research anti-matter bombs
((Where are you getting the antimatter? It doesn't grow on trees, you know. And how will you contain it once it's made?))

Start a media campaign going through various sociological layers, claiming that the Americans want total war, and that Sunshine Squad is working with them.
((Seriously, why are you all so focused on screwing us over instead of destroying the world?))

Quote
Research cold fusion.
((People have been working on this for decades and are just figuring out non-cold ways to break even, and you're going to just whip up some cold fusion?))

Quote
Work on a cure for the supervirus.
((Shouldn't you have done this before releasing it?))

Carry out massive 'we are the lesser evil' propaganda campaign.

((You're planning to destroy the world. How will you do that, say we want to destroy the Moon, too?))

Yes but develop these nanites in secluded area and let them go once they reached a very high level, and control them afterwards, so we have a technological god at hand.
((Nanobots that complex are questionably possible, let alone possible to design at our current tech level.))

Begin distributing small-pox vaccines to the populace, shouldn't do much, but it will galvanize the public towards us.
((Is that really the best you can think to do with a smallpox vaccine?))

Quote
Offer china full and total control of Korea (both north and south) and Taiwan if they support the sunshine squad, encourage the U.S to renounce Taiwan's claim to mainland china and withdraw their support from them. Additionally offer any small Asian country they care to have.

Offer Russia their choice of countries in eastern Europe including Finland, the Baltic States, Poland, Romania, and Ukraine if they agree to support us.

Offer India the territory of Kashmir and all of Pakistan in exchange for support.

Assuming the Big 3 have fallen in line, bully the remaining nations to our side, if they refuse, invade them and share the spoils among the Sunshine Squad. Also invade and occupy all the promised nations, try not to wreck them too badly.
((How will this interact with my attempts to make a world government?))

And it would be inaccurate to say a nuke cannot explode in space, Nuclear reactions can and do occur in a vacuum (the sun for instance) it would be more accurate to say it is less effective than when used on a terrestrial target as the majority of it's destruction comes from the shockwave. The initial fireball, and resulting gamma and solar radiation however, would be just as effective at destroying things if within a smaller radius.
((I think he means that no nuclear missile currently in existence would detonate in a vacuum.))

Defect from the Sunshine squad and form my own faction centered on a military colony base on the moon. When I defect take the sunshine special forces, 10,000 sunshine regulars and one of the space frigates with me.
((Gosh dangit...))
((FYI, Woodburner, I'm going to be doing something like this if you don't stop being suicidally Orwellian soon.))

Remember the first word in Mad Science.

We'll always outclass you on awesome technology.
((Oh come on that is just stupid. How are we supposed to compete if you can build Death Stars on an asteroid with a bunch of rocks?))

((Oh, and is anyone else concerned with how much advanced tech the SADISTSs have cooked up so fast? I didn't even cover half the examples of this.))



Begin constructing bunkers deep underground, each capable of supporting a self-sustaining society for at least several hundred years. (think the vaults from Fallout).
Begin researching methods to extend their lifespan indefinitely.


Quote
Continue hunting down all SADIST secret bases and military, no prisoners are to be taken. Utilize international forces to this effect.
Use covert-ops teams to take prisoners in the form of scientists, leadership, and the like before these killsquads move in.

On that note, send some of the special forces in to capture these uber-scientists of the SADISTSs.

Nuking yellowstone with nukes we don't have was one of them.
Which is more impractical, faking a space company to make a massive moon base or nuking Yellowstone to trigger a supervolcano?

Also: Dammit L.W. Burns, we weren't supposed to turn this into 1984, we were supposed to stop Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy! Well, the initial scenes at least. And aliens instead of crazies. There are remarkably few stories where humans deliberately destroy Earth, you know that?

Wonder how the SADISTSs are creating all this ultratech when they have virtually no support.

Create an official world government
(I'm imagining something like the Hegemony from the Ender's Game universe) and hold elections for various positions.

Continue training and advanced training.

Create research bases and uranium-refinement centers.

Research combat drones.

((A half naked man covered in blood and energy blades who was just seen leaving a crime scene is standing over and holding a whimpering teenage girl while laughing. Yep, that's going to look good on the witness reports or when the police arrive.

Speaking of which, how long does it take for the police to arrive in a city like that when a crime like that one (gunshots with possible wounded and possible parahuman involvement) is reported? Judging from personal experience, in a high crime area like that one response times are going to be 5-15 minutes or less if there happens to be a nearby police car, unless there's something more important going on elsewhere or the police officers are afraid.
Just thinking in case the PCs need to wait for human reinforcements. Or run away, if they decide to be villains...
EDIT: Except if the police move at the speed of the plot...))
((All of that is very true. However, the law is a bit distracted elsewhere...and I kinda lost track of in-game time.))

((Alright, I see what you're saying. I might tone down that stuff a little, especially the bit where her serums have an order of magnitude more effect on herself*, but overall not too bad.))
((So...you're planning to test it on lab rats? That's the stage you're at?))

The sky rumbles. As in, it begins to fall apart.
((...What?))

Suddenly...the city is surrounded with two bridges....one towards the Academy, one towards Iris HQ.
"sO ShAll yoUr WoRlDs e-"
And before the worlds could be mashed together and destroyed, the spark that was Azuander was snuffed out.
The sky, broken, repaired itself, but the bridges remained.
A dimensional cataclysm has occured.
The TA, RotMG, and SA worlds are now linked together by portal.
"Ooh..."
"I bet that this means--"
"--we will be able to freely go from world to world. Neat."

"Well. I'm up for some dinner.

You guys in? I'm paying."
Both Angels react enthusiastically and in the affirmative.
Will also assents, less enthusiastically.

((Tis a shame the crossover is over though.

I did leave a small hint that in future, another crisis crossover, not headed by me, could be done.))
((Heck, we might even add another RP into the mix...think TWoOtA is still doing that game-link thing?))

Will finds a spot to sit away from everyone else, with the others from the Super Academy universe.
"Well, that was interesting. Certainly the first big thing to happen to us in our career as superheroes or whatever.
"But it's not that unusual. Well, aside from the massive bombing happening in the middle, usually those would happen at different times. But still, neither the bombing nor the coliseum nor even the lesser god are really unusual. If we stay here, we can expect stuff like this every few years. Sound like fun? Well, meeting the others was, I suppose, but we don't exactly need to fight gods for that. We can just...meet people.
"If we stay here, though, we will have expectations on our shoulders. We will be expected to fight, and perhaps to die fighting, any kind of alien invaders, kaiju, extradimensional invaders, experiments-gone-wrong, Atlantean invaders, supervillains, neo-Nazi invaders, and so forth that show up. Do you really want to do that?
"We don't have to. We can go to that one world, the one which Selina, Angel, and--um--where Richard, Maria, and Marie are from. No supervillains, no superheroes. No standards set by Legend, Titan, and the other great heroes of the past decades to live up to. No fear that we will anger a villain enough that they will try to kill our loved ones. Just...living. No threats, no terrors. It would be a simpler way of life.
"Let's face it; our prospects here are pretty minimal. None of us, myself included, have the potential to be a great superhero or -villain. At best, we'd be the C-listers sent in for the slaughter whenever a major threat shows up. But in that world...the possibilities are endless.
"And it's not like this is permanent. We'd be able to come back whenever we wanted to talk with our family or our old friends.
"Sound good? Who's with me?"

The child moves to respond, but then...
"No...yOu Do NoT undeRsTaND....yOu WiLL diE heRe..."
Suddenly, Azuander glows red.....and the colosseum begins to shake violently.
Nuriel starts stomping on Azuander's head. Hard. Repeatedly.

Mirror glances up.
"Shielder! We need a force field! Or ideally many!"
One of the heroes starts setting up force fields.

Maybe I should do something more practical
...
SPAAAAAACEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
I need to check your past actions to see if this is, indeed, more practical than those.
