Annie, yes, your post is OK, though I won't depict Annie cutting through the Hive Mind's tentacles just like that, seeing as plasma cutters in-game can't do that. But, you don't have to change anything, it's good enough the way it is. Just waiting for everyone else to post.


Inferi, yeah, that's a good point. But, there is another group of soldiers, who came from Shirley's subplot, so they'll meet Rem no matter what, to make sure no-one dies needlessly. Though, plot armour is quite powerful in my RPs; not sure if that's good or not.

Personally, I'd minimize plot armor, but the difference is that I typically wouldn't put characters in situations where they'd die. It seems like the style you're typically going with is fairly action-heavy, which means there's a lot more room for someone to screw up and get themselves killed.

Player characters are usually going to find a way to survive anyways, too. Done in by the dubious doings of destiny.

But the Flood can use firearms and vehicles, whereas I don't think that Necromorphs can, unless I'm mistaken.

You guys seem to think of this as a bad thing - but think about it. Besides that one flood who hid behind a corner on the pillar of autumn, have you ever seen a flood that could use a weapon particularly well? Or have they been convenient ammo dumps for the hero to replenish their ammo?

If the necromorphs need technology, they will send agents they have converted to their side. If you're going to use technology, who better to use and maintain said technology than the people whom it was designed to be used?

So, is this a case of brilliant tactical planning on the part of the Necromorph Brethren Moons?

Are they still alive? They've been in radio silence for awhile, and there isn't a named one (that I remember) of the bunch.

Ok.

Sub plot with Bob And The Arbiter continues in next post?
Not yet, but getting closer.

Fair points for sure, I'll keep these in mind. Generally, I prefer to throw characters in suicidal scenarios, expecting them to get through it!

But ya, that too.


West,
I dunno. I honestly don't remember much of Dead Space or Halo, so I may have to do some repurchasing.


Anyways, I got to the party part of Mass Effect 3 shore leave quest, it's pretty funny so far. Surprised by a few things, basically everyone knows how to dance all of a sudden. Joker reminds me of myself, I also can't and don't dance, I just sit and drink till I drop. Then wake up wondering what happened.


West,
Yes, they're still alive. I threw them out to be used later, basically.
