The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Yeah, they'll force Reynolds to join them.

Also, should we let Starfall in on the action?

Something I should have done a while ago, I'm releasing any 2nd RP characters I create other than Shelton into the public domain unless otherwise mentioned. This includes future created characters (I don't think there'll be any more, but I wasn't expecting Bradley or Reynolds to become important characters, so maybe more might arise, who knows.)
Shelton is the one character not in the public domain.

Starfall has dropped out of the RP.

His characters are NOT public domain. I will "remove" (NOT) kill them from the RP.

Ridley technically isn't his character. Have one of the ADSA members bring him.

Did you say Ridley and co. was last seen in the cafeteria? I made a reference to the head chef, Nixon, who's a member of ADSA. He could show up, and say Ridley was passed off to him.

I really have to get this RP rolling again or else it may stagnate and die. I am going to have the convoy come in and load lab 101 onto the truck.

When Kenjiro returns, I will relinquish control of the convoy back to him. Ariol and his other characters will not be touched.

However, I will still have the car chase and the misguided invasion.

The reason why the group can't intercept the convoy immediately is because  the main hanger is pretty far from the control room and the hanger doors now have to be manually opened as well as the fact that the group now has to upgrade its firepower.

Since there are a lot of redshirts with the team this time around, maybe the good guys could take some casulties?

Also, how is the car chase going to fit with the bomb subplot? Will the heroes have to race back to Pelvanida after the car chase to save the base?

If you need them to find out about the bomb some way, Shelton could radio James after Lab 101 gets away on his radio-flashlight and warn him about the bomb. The heroes would think they were done, and then they'd have to race back to save the rest of the Pelvanida staff. Og course this wouldn't happen for a long time, once we've milked the car chase for as much action as we possibly could.

Good guys will take casualties.

The bomb plot will simultaneously occur with the invasion. The chasers will be forced to return to Pelvanida when Shelton alerts them to the bomb. While they are searching for the bomb, the misguided invasion occurs.

It's perfect ploy for Dragonstorm. Set off the bomb, wipe all evidence and kill a bunch of US and Canadian troops. Blame gets heaped on Pelvanida and Dr. Zanasiu's team and Dragonstorm gets away.

Serris, make sure to mention via OOC when you want Shelton to warn about the bomb. I don't want to end the high-octane car chase prematurely.

I think Kenjiro's got that job but you can do it too.

And remember that the chase will go through Vegas but they'll break off the chase after they tear through the Vegas Strip. The justification: they don't want to endanger any more civilians. An argument will break out between those who want to cease the chase to avoid harming civilians and those who decide that Dragonstorm must be stopped at all costs. Shelton's (or Feral's) warning about the bomb will force them to return to the base.  

And this chase is high octane. I can literally feel my heart racing! Of course, the fact that I was listening to the battle themes of Total Annihilation may have had something to do with it.

I'll serve as Kenjiro's backup. In case we want to get on with the RP, and he's not showing up. It's only one line.

So Are Shelton and Zaniusu going to be discovered  by Dragonstorm or not?

you mean Shelton and Kerzach, right? I don't think so. I think the plan was they escape in the Lab, and then act as inside informants when James and company locate the lab in the third RP.

Could someone please help me catch up in this RP? I'd like to post more, but I don't have much time, and, frankly, it is rather complex to begin with. Could someone recap the last two pages please?

Shelton and Kerzach have snuck aboard Lab 101 which has detached from Pelvanida and we're in the middle of a merry little chase trying to catch them..

I'll have Corporal Stern join in the pursuit, then. Thanks.
