Uh, Crimson? Kinda already moving there :P

Which is exactly why they likely won't waste shots against you. It'll be the poor front-line fighters taking the brunt of the Meteors :p

At least it only has five shots, deals "only" 26 damage, and isn't super accurate, so we should be able to weather the worst of it.

Seyena can also kick Wodan's ass, she has the Glaive, which is a weapon highly effective against mounted units. If Valor and possibly Salvatore, or even someone else is adjacent to him, then she gets an automatic critical, which probably kills him.
A critical effective strike? We might just see a repeat of Charlotte's 150+ damage attack against a pegasus rider :D

If Edwin can sleep the bandits, we could probably not have to worry about the houses either.

:O

ZAKO! DO THAT!

I only did it because I wasn't sure if or when I'd have another chance to post. Now I know better, but no sense in erasing the action only to make the same thing later :v

Something on my laptop is eating up my limited bandwidth, but I don't know what. I have no pages loading, no videos, and no downloads or online services that I can see. And yet something is chewing up 2 MB per minute and I can only have 10 at a time.
Get wireshark. Open up task manager and look for suspicious processes. Make sure to check show processes for all users.
26Mb. I can only use 10 at a time before I'm auto-dc'd and have to reconnect. So I'll have to try some other time >_>
Install DownThemAll, it saves download progress between sessions.
Looks very handy! Thankfully the mystery bandwidth leecher seems to have stopped.

Ahhh, okay. I haven't read any out-of-film sources of information (I can't even remember the names of the characters/robots/monsters without looking them up), so I was unaware of that.

But still, I'm not sure the scientist in question was based on Turing. He was in a similar field, yes, but seemed very different in most other ways. It's be a little like calling you a Turing clone; it makes no sense.

I'm going to fucking maul the next person who makes a character based on Alan Turing and pleasantly "forgets" that he was gay.  He died for it.

Where did this happen?

If TVTropes is right, Pacific Rim.  I sent a rather lengthy note to the scriptwriter.
Wait, the mathematician guy? The one with the cane?
...
He never expressed any interest in women from what I can tell, and the majority of his interactions are with other scientist dude, though no signs of sexuality are shown either case. You could say he's gay but was focused on the mission or somesuch?
Assuming this is the character Vector is referencing...so what? The dude never said anything about his romantic interests, at all. Romance was probably the least important thing in the film. And now the scriptwriters deserve hate mail because someone wasn't specifically revealed to be gay?

Dammit all. Truck is broken down and we currently have no idea as to the problem. Gonna.have to hope it works well enough tomorrow to at least get to a repair shop, but if not we're stuck immobile in this parking lot until someone can come help.
Are these repairs coming out of your pocket?
They are in the sense that we're not earning any money by sitting around, but otherwise no. The company pays for repairs.

ETA: Yep, we're stuck. And the repair shop (which we will need towing to) doesn't open until tomorrow >_<

Move to (9,7) after Charlotte moves.

...Okay, that is impressive. Kill that sunuvabitch for me :P

Them horses are going to be on us in a bit more than a turn. I strongly suggest forming a Gregor/Alex wahl of JUSTICE at the choke point into the city at 9,11/9,12.
Well, if Valor hadn't taken one of those spots I would have :P

Pfft, you can do it next turn.

I just want to be within range of Wodan so's I can crack him open with my armorslayer.
Assuming you can hit him, that is :P

But really, Alexander and Gregor make the best Wall o Defence.
