Thanks for the nice comments, Asha. I'm pretty happy that I'm gonna be able to finish it.

Folks, meet the Aeolus. It's really good at two different things.

Design

Three links in this one, two tropes and some music.

Rogue's gun has a name.
Seventeen's particular aesthetic choice.
Rogue's choice in music.

AKA: "And With Edward James Olmos as Spectre[DTM]"

We are moving along now, folks. Got some proper action for you this time, plus a couple of Geek Bonuses. Bring your calculator!

Daunt

'bout time! Maybe someone can make a T2 mod--I'd like to have 5 weapons on my heavies again.

A little character development and a tiny bit of action.

Datum

Divestment It's that time again, folks, another chapter update. I promised screenshots earlier, and now you've got 'em. They're at the end of the doc. First screenshot is one of Praxx's DTM skins, second is a compare shot I grabbed off of Google Images. For those of you without Tribal experience, t...

Another chapter! When you figure out just how much you're going to hurt your characters, it gets a LOT easier to write. Departure . The maxims, by the way, are The Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries . Damn right I'm a Schlock Mercenary fan. No soundtrack for this chapter. Don't worry,...

[T1000]Say, that's a nice bike.[/T1000]

Sweet ride, dude!

There's nods to EVAs in there...but this ain't Evangelion. Hoooo. This is much more immature and less angsty.

Heyas! I'm sure we've all been afraid of the dark at some point. Sirus gets re-acquainted.

Darkness

No links this time.

Saw it again last weekend, and it still holds up. You know how Michael Bay was all "GIANT ROBOTS FIGHTING! IT'LL BE AWESOME!" when the Transformers movies came out? Bay got schooled . THIS is how you do giant robots. They're supposed to be majestic , not frenetic. Go see it on the big scre...

Make your own Jaeger! If ToB!Bug made one....

Seconding this, folks. If this were a serious movie, I'd be ripping it to shreds because the science doesn't work, there's plot holes big enough to herd a Kaiju through, the characters are little more than archetypes, and the plot's thin. But it's not a serious movie. Del Toro never sold it as a ser...

I really hope you all are enjoying "Memory" and "Discovery". Memory really was the hardest thing I've ever written. For almost a decade I've spun Desecration as a fairly typical Hero's Journey. There's a problem with those Journeys. They're damned boring , mechanically speaking. ...

Yup, a faster update.

Discovery

I've embedded a link into the document, this time for a piece of music. I'm going to start doing that when a moment has a particularly suitable theme to go with. This particular piece is "A Cloudy Path" from the Supreme Commander OST.
