Peacekeeper Burgers™: Now with Blind Moon Elf.
Peacekeeper aren't goons. In fact, they are far away from that, being well-trained, professional infantrymen that are very accurate with their rifles and love their grenades. And don't get started on their tanks, who are well armoured and invulnerable to the standard "punch through front glass window" anime trick.
They also use well-developed tactics, unlike your fantasy goon who just charges suicidally at their enemy no matter what. If Threeshades uses her standard strategy (wade through minions), she'll get shredded.

They're a numerous force of infantrymen, they wear face covering uniforms and they work for the 'evil' organisation. They're goons, minions, henchmen, whatever.
Which will cause heart disease in many, but the UNA will be safe, thanks to tiny warning labels!Last edited by Keris; 2009-08-05 at 03:39 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
MM- Since Squark is also not from Avbaroy, I thought I'd explain why he is here, in-universe.
The first time Squark came to Avbaroy was shortly before the battle of blauport, and events led to his regeneration being corrupted, leading to him becoming a time guinoid instead of a time penguin (mainly because I liked KP's avatar, and am shameless about ripping stuff off from people. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and all that.). He participated in the fight against MechaNightwing, and a malfunction he experienced while trying to save the civilians led to him being thrown back to shortly after the age of dragons, on the blank plane (This is where the original TOS started) After a variety of hijinks ensued, Squark Iota has come to adopt Avbaroy as his second home, of sorts. He has been at many historical events (usually as an observer, although he was temporarily drafted during the fall of Arcania*). Most recently, Squark Iota and Squark Squiggly were sent to help out the resistance at the behest of God, who had a word with her equivalent in Squark'sgalaxy** universe.
*He can be spotted in a grunt's uniform in one of Lying's comics after I asked him to put him there.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
Oh I'm sorry, the proper term is "Mooks" then.
They also use well-developed tactics, unlike your fantasy goon who just charges suicidally at their enemy no matter what. If Threeshades uses her standard strategy (wade through minions), she'll get shredded.
The standard strategy is advanced by mean tricks now.
Also why is the teck-level in FI around WW1 standards, when in FFF there are hightech submarine-able ships firing Wave Motion Laser guns and other things?
Sorry 10 days to go still, but I have the next page sketched already. And the following will be ready by the time i'm back too, i'm certain.Last edited by Threeshades; 2009-08-05 at 03:49 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
I sense there shall be tropes soon
Those peacekeepers would fit rather many mook tropes, MM... Are you reallllyyy sure they will last long against named characters?
Also, the tactics and guns cannot really compensate for everything. I mean, a group of green juves who are first day in the field are not going to take out major resistance members (even those with swords) exept in their daydreams.

Alright, treat them that way, we'll see what happens when you're an exposed target to an entire squad of rifles. Or maybe a Gatling gun.
BANGBANGBANGBANG !
I'm sorry ?
The Sovices keep these toys well hidden in case of an wide-scale rebellion. They don't want a nation do be able to mount an effective resistance should the they decide to make an invasion.
Treat them as mere cannon fodder if you will.
But don't protest when your character receives a bullet in the head when he could have gotten under cover.Last edited by Mad Mask; 2009-08-05 at 03:57 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
I think Aphlantica already had something like that...
Which brings me to this point- Aphlantica, Tarija, And Schizotech are already at, if not past, modern levels of technology. So how did the Sovice get rid of it? Especially Schizotech, considering the name.Last edited by Squark; 2009-08-05 at 04:05 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
Me too.
Just make sure you arrange for your resurrection prior to charging in battle with your sword.
The Pikalites have formed a direct alliance with the Sovices and are already highly advanced technologically. And regular ships would have been useless against the Alphanticans, who have Magitec weaponry.
Alphantica got sunk and the Schizians were incredibly isolated.Last edited by Mad Mask; 2009-08-05 at 04:09 PM.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
In Schitzotec, most of the population lived at Industrial revolution-WWI era tech anyway. The Government kept all the good stuff to themselves, the same way the UNA does. The higher up you go in the government, the better tech you got. When the UNA moved in, all they had to do was confiscate the Tech from the higher-ups. It's not like everybody knew how to build lasers and robots. Once the UNA shut down the more advanced factories and got the researchers to work for them, it was not problem.

Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XXIV: What is this "Haste" you speak of?
Same reason I don't have a nuke, the government has the good highly expensive stuff while the average people gets the cheap mass produced crap (Normal people have pepper spray, the police has shock-guns for example) and that's the idealistic independent real world while this is basically a less racist version of the side that lost WW2 (I'm not saying the name).
Besides in FFF the most advanced weapons seen i the hands of adventures and guards are stuff like crossbows so if it's WW1 riffles then I'd say it has gotten a lot more high tech.Treasured Quotes

UNA
-Conservator of the Peace James Ins (created by Squark)*
-President Talia Ins of the UNA General Assembly (created by Squark)*
-Tycho Dalren, student at the UNA academy for sorcerers (Squark)
ALF
-Squark Iota, (I'm thinking Squark Iota will be part of the ALF's Intel department, or considering the Resistance's amount of resources, he'll BE the intel departmentOk, instead, Squark Iota will be the intel logistics guy, who spends most of his time in the office, and only comes out to get more extra strength coffee)
Wow. I've just revealed the planeswalker character. More info to come.
*You're all free to use James and Talia however you like, I just want to be the one to develop them as villians.

Fixed it, BRC. The fix was actually what I wanted him doing anyway, which is more suited to a second-in-command, anyway. So no problem there.

They were originaly meant to be in FI, so I wanted to keep them there......I can atleast respond if some mercenary tries to hunt them down in intro comic, or they can be used in the background (posters, newspapers, reports, gossip...). Well, I'll exactly know what to do with them once it finally starts....
