This will be a follow-up to Heidegger's post back on page 2, for anyone that cares. The olympiad has thrived, and meeting only 2x/week, managed, in under 250 estimated hours of playtime, to ding all it's participants to 50.
We've started a CoV ST, with the same guidelines as before, and we hope it will go well. Not sure how this will relate to anyone not in CoV, but, here's our starting lineup. (btw, heidegger had personal issues and can't lead this one, i've taken the reigns alongside another veteran of the Olympiad)
Mercury R8X1 - Sonic/Cold Corruptor
Mars R8X4 - Sonic/Kin Corruptor
Jupiter R8X5 - Spines/Ninjitsu Stalker
Saturn R8X6 - Fire/Thermal Corruptor
Uranus R8X7 - Grav/Nrg Dominator
Neptune R8X8 - Ice/Icy Dominator
Pluto R8X9 - Ice/Sonic Corruptor
Sol R8X0 - Nrg/Nrg Stalker
I have to say, being in the Olympiad made that 6 months some of the most fun. Looking forward to it every Wednesday and Saturday was the highlight of some weeks.
We ended up Relying on the Spines/SR and the Fire/Fire for damage output, with the Kin's 6 slotted SB giving us the end we needed to bypass stamina, and the leadership pools and the forts helping to make us true gods. In that theme, we named our CoV toons after the Roman counterparts to the Olympiad, and hope that our success will continue. Glad to know who inspired Dio to make this group that has been such a big part of my and 7 others CoH experience.
