Please read the current update for instructions on downloading the latest update. Players with Mac versions of the game will not be affected, but you will have a slightly longer wait for your version of the new maps. Please make a copy of your character folder before running the new update, just to make sure you don't lose any of your custom work.
It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.
To purchase your copy of the City of Titans Launcher, visit our store at https://store.missingworldsmedia.com/ A purchase of $50 or more will give you a link to download the Launcher for Windows or Mac based machines.
Phantasm and Sunstroke aren't magical. Sunstroke a mutant, not sure what Phantasm is think he a mutant as well or a product of mad science. Jutan would be magical based.

Things that [font=lucida bright]AIko[/font] might pick up with her communications suite:
Active radio transmitters, including AM/FM, other voice or TV bands.
Cell phones, as long as they aren't on "airplane mode" or turned off.
Wi-Fi hotspots and Bluetooth-enabled devices
Radio receivers if close enough.
Encryption might prevent her from understanding something, but only until she cracks it, she can still save a copy to her memory until she can spare the cycles. ^_^

Ice Kat graduated from pick-pocketing to boosting bikes and cars, and has moved on to B&E, so she's got skills for casing locations. Let me know what if anything she notices, although admittedly she's only seeing the street-front side of the museum so far, and from a slight distance away.
The comms are fine. It's signals from the inside being absorbed
Too much metal, acting like a Faraday cage. No bars :(

OK, heading back out to our property for another day of work on the land (and of deer-flies! More Deepwoods Off for today, to be sure.)
We won't be back to the motel & wifi till dinner tonight, so if Kat needs to be discovered and incapacitated to keep the story moving forward in my absence, I'm OK with that. Catch you all later.
OOps didn't notice Kat going in. Mental note don't RP until a cup of coffee.

I figure with a dialup connection the picture of Sunstroke will take less than a minute to send.
So, how many groups of tourists are there in El Bawiti? And how many of them spotted Sunstroke and started pointing and taking pictures?

Uhm.... relative speed and perspective would vary as Sunstroke gained altitude. Shuttles and planes certainly move very fast but we can easily follow them with our eyes without special tracking equipment. I guess the question should be more, "what direction did Sunstroke fly?"

And is she looking around town (where I'd expect she'd have to be flying slower to look in all the side streets), or outside of town (where she could get up a lot of speed and still expect to spot anything of interest)?

info on Sunstroke she's a well known mercenary for hire. often listed as being excessively hostile fire based type. Can fly at Mach 3 and in extreme condition hit Mach 4. Her body can reach temperatures of over 1000.°C / 1832 F
Yeah she would need to slow down as she looks about, she also has no real idea what she scouting for.

the tourist pop is thin, and even this part of the city isnt very crowded. as for thier reaction to sunstroke, itd be more puzzled than anything. they would probably try to get an odd pic with a phone, but i dont think theyd go running away screaming or anything. supernatural activity isnt as rare as it would seem in this part of town. Still not sure what to do with notears. his jeep is still incoming im assuming . as for kats reaction to phatasm, shed have to decide what to do there. i beleive nobody has said they went around to notice the humvee behind the building correct, just kat?
Just Kat so far, although she did mention it to us before she went up to the roof..

Night, RL. See you later.
EDITED: Heading to bed as well.
Just a note that I'm holding off on posting again until everyone else has had a chance to weigh in. I'll check the thread again this evening. :-)
sorry all, really busy weekend. RL stuff, anyways should be able to post more regualrly now
Blue - if there aren't any magical wards on the windows and there's enough of a gap in any boarding up for light to pass through then I can edit the post and proceed.
[i]“The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.” -Douglas Adams[/i]
aye no magical warding at all, you would have detected it, as for the gap , heart burned a hole in the front about softball size, but she cant open the door still.
Paint is that signal absorbing stuff....used to hide scans and such or at least mask them from external imagery. Oh and now that luca is inside, hed be picking up very feignt magic residues coming from that back room area.
I moved Kat's post along a bit, to do a data-dump of what little she found while searching, and about her encounter with Phantasm. I'll be out again all day today (and most every day till June 12th), so as usual will check back in tonight.
the back room in the museum is a large T shaped one. The double door opens to a large foyer then it branches off into two large chambers on each side . the readings that luca are getting are coming from the left side , and almost what would appear to be below.
If youd like, you can set the depth of the hole atr whatever.. as long as its deep. quite deep. with a cavern or tunnel leading towards the desert area.

Quick question: Does the tunnel look man-made (walls, doors), or roughly dug/clawed out?
I meant for [I][font=lucida bright]AIko[/font][/I] to drop into the hole, with the flashlight off but ready. Oh, well. Easier to edit my post ^_^

made one last post for the evening. I'm about to hop in my raid time, will be back in about 3 hours otherwise.
If any action with Luca needs to happen, he would defend by firing light arrows into any foe (kheldian style powers but magic not kheldie), he could heal a single person through magic (standard cure wounds spell), and would otherwise provide support with the teleporting process and such.
[i]“The story so far: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.” -Douglas Adams[/i]
Likewise out most of the afternoon. Feel free to 'auto' Kat if needed to progress the action. Kat's a thief, so has some skills with detecting and surpassing basic alarm systems. She's also (in CoV terms) an Ice/Ice Dominator, so can throw daggers of ice, form an ice sword, freeze individuals in blocks of ice (although in Egypt the ice isn't likely to last long), throw down ice slicks under baddies to make them fall and slip, form clouds of cold mist as a diversion, etc.)
She's also trained since early childhood as a gymnast, and currently works out with Parkour, so can get into tight places. She's graceful and quiet, but also curious, sometimes to a fault. Hope that's helpful.
I'll check back this evening.
the tunnel was dug by something, not man made, and its very crude, narrows, widens randomly etc... sorry wasnt able to post yesterday conference had me busy till late.
I hope I didn't take too many liberties with describing the Hind-Ds.
I figured they'd have a standard ground attack loadout. Each wing would have a gunpod with a GSh-23L autocannon, a B-8V20 S-8 rocket launcher pod, and a pair of 9K114 Shturm missiles. And, of course, the Yak-B 12.7mm machine gun in the chin turret.

not at all.... glad you did. lol
for those who didnt want to get trapped in the cave and be forced to traverse it to find another way out, i can edit the post to before impact. ok? If not , that was the general idea .
shall i edit summer? or did you want to?
I'll edit.
we musta hit post at the same time.

Blue, if the action progresses tomorrow to where the underground cave group is attacked by multiple opponents, it's fine to "auto-play" Kat either using 'block of ice' to freeze individuals one at a time, or using "Glacier" to freeze all the nearby opponents temporarily, to allow the rest of the group a free strike or two on various targets.
"Glacier" would probably be fairly draining for Kat, with the uber-low humidity, just as an FYI, so she'd likely need to drop back from the fight for a moment to grab and down another bottled water before continuing.
I'll check in again tomorrow evening.

Blue, if the pilot is crazy/suicidal/programmed enough to smash the helicopter into the ground, then feel free to do so. Like Cal said, he's got an insurance policy and I've already got another character on Ready 5.

ok ....sounds good..
FYI just wanted to give everyone the idea im attmpting in the 2016 thread. Im a big fan of the show 'the walking dead' and enjoyed the movies 28 days later and its sequel. id like to try a very , realistic, (i know bad term for a zombie outbreak) thread. no superpowers, no invincibility, etc.....scavange and scrounge for the basics of just survival. if it takes off great, if not, no biggie, just trying something new outside the realm of super powered idviduals but still based in a comic book world.
Zombies in a comic book world... naw.

blue, I don't know how much you've looked back through the previous stories on the forums, so what do you know about the Orbs?
[color=#FF7F50]Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.[/color]
Enough to ask me about them and wanted to know if he could use my idea. That Orb he's using is bound to Jord the Norse goddess of Earth. So it's logical it could be used to open passages between earth realms. It can't break the Barrier to the fallen realms of the Banished one (Gideon Cross's big baddie) Also it has no real control over the portals opening them randomly. Hence why Blue's baddies using other magic to control it.
-------------------------------------------
Personal rules of good roleplay
1.) Nothing goes as planned.
2.) If it goes as planned it's not good RP
Okay, that helps a little bit. What I was trying to determine is if blue knew what history Nightstrike has with Rotten and the Orb they recovered in Crossing The Line. But I'll go ahead and explain.
Nightstrike has worked with Rotten Luck several times now, so he's been able to give her the pertinent information about the Orbs and Jutan. The first time they worked together was in recovering the Orb that is now a part of Rotten Luck. Through the grapevine and in talking with Talon, she also knows about the events at the Museum and the Orb recovered there. Those two Orbs are relatively out of reach at the moment, but Nightstrike's stance is that the more Orbs they can keep out of Jutan's hands, the better.
[color=#FF7F50]Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.[/color]
Believe it or not I have figured out how each orb works with each other.
The Jord orb can open portals, but has no control. Blue's Baddies figured out a work around via that Text book they stolen.
The Odin orb has that control so with the Jord orb someone can use portals going anywhere and even to other realms. (just not the ones blocked via the barrier.)
The Thor Orb would be needed to open a portal to the blocked realms (but only for the wielder of the orbs)
Loki orb would allow Jutan to bring others from the blocked reams to this universe.
Hel orb (Rotten Luck now) would be needed with conjunction of the others to bring down the barrier completely granting anyone from the blocked realms to open portals to the Guarded realms.
-------------------------------------------
Personal rules of good roleplay
1.) Nothing goes as planned.
2.) If it goes as planned it's not good RP
Talon is currently in possession of the Loki Orb? That leaves the Orb (Thor?) that was going to be kept safe by Psychopomp and the Orb Jutan has. Which, if I'm not mistaken, should be the Odin Orb.
[color=#FF7F50]Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.[/color]
Right. Talon has the Loki Orb, and Psychopomp was going to keep the Thor Orb. Not sure what to do now seeming that thread still on hold. Jutan has the Odin orb, Blue's baddies have the Jord orb, and the Hel Orb been bound into Rotten.
-------------------------------------------
Personal rules of good roleplay
1.) Nothing goes as planned.
2.) If it goes as planned it's not good RP
aye , i consulted with rotten on how to use the orb, or if the way i wanted to use it would be feasable.....basically itsd being used as a battery....the power from it used to twist the stories of the tome and bring them to life......a side effect of it though is tearing holes in dimension, hence the original portals and different creatures from different realms. However Syndra has been using it to fuel her powerlust and create these monstrosities....the last portal was her own gate way and the things that came through were her summoned or created help.....however.........one thing she did not intentionally is start something from one of the Daemonic planes. When she twisted the creatures and created the first wave of minions, she tore into a plane she shouldnt have and it started the Purge......a cleansing of all things not of that plane. Not sure if itll carry over or itl even be continued..but i always try to keep a story going , or to possibly set up another. so basicallly orb+ darkwael tome= all kinds of nasty minions.....and seperate temporal rifts in the planes mentioned in the stories in the tome.... two main baddies is Syndra ..and mengelor the doomfist.......everything else has either been a side effect or part of a bigger picture.....
oh and no worries gideon.....the daily grind is the coffe house 3a works out of......a front. Sorry if i didnt make it clear.

She'd picked up a loose "cargo" shirt (lots of pockets, some oversized) when she was putting together her supplies before the group headed out. I admit, stuffing a 2-liter bottle into one of the lower ones (waist level, I'm guessing) is a tight fit, but she thought she'd give it a try.
Hey Rott, you planning on replying to Nightstrike calling your number?

I did. On the Clarkstown Rp given that event going on at the same time as Egypt.
Rotten stood up looking at the bloody remains where Rift was. His face was twitching was he angry or remorseful, perhaps both. Then his phone rang and he took it out "Ya who's this?"
