My own view is that given that we can use supergroup mode to generate this, the original costume should be a 'dress in the dark' epic which we can view in the privacy of our base, laugh, and switch into SG mode to go out in public.

Maybe we should put a request in Jay's costume thread asking for "odd socks" as an option, or as several options, "because sometimes Heroes dress in the dark too"  :D

*Ahem*

If people wish to model their costumes this weekend give me a shout, as I'll probably be on with K'naa, I'll sort out SG invites :)

Incidentally if people wish to join in for some Heroic action this weekend then I've got a load of AV\EB portal missions and am always happy for a  damage sponge little help

Have created Jararaca Pintada, lvl 2 science warshade who is now in AP having got his isolator badge.

Swifty created seismic shift and we are both in the SG.

As a suggestion, not everybody will have done the PB/WS content, so do we want to do that as we go up ?

Personally I am up for the sewers to start. Get to 10 and then use mino's Taxibot warshade to make the hollows fly by. But I am up for the arc if others want to.

Swifty is so close to 50 now I wouldn't mind having the PB arcs a bit of a surprise.

Also, pls note: Have created roster thread.

Other pls note: Gonna be away for 2 weeks now. Will try to get some net acess. If not, see you in 2 weeks  ;D

Looks like I may be able to join this upcoming venture after all - something about playing WoW tuesday nights not being good for your elf :(

Also found I have free slots on Infinity.

Probably make a defender, either Emp/* or Sonic/*

What's the low-down on costume design these days?
Why do you chase me Mechanical Yeti?! WHY?!

As a member of this elf group I now am free to participate. I only have COH BTW.

In terms of costume suggestions my vote would be that we go the the classic 1950's hero archetype - cliche and bold colours. Things like the old Green Lantern, Superman or Flash.

The only question I would ask is should we all be child size so that we look like a bunch of children? 

I really like the idea of classic "stars and stripes" costumes though, most people design their characters on COH like X-men but we could really go for the old style Avengers type super team

We're starting from lvl 1 right?

.. and whem do we start?

My understanding is that we already have 8:

Mino - Warshade
Swifty - Earth/kin cont
Naam - Sonic/nrg def
Awe - Mind/? cont
Jimmy - Dark/psi def
Prythos - Ill/FF cont
Carthis - Storm/dark def
Skarlet - Emp/nrg def

Yay  ;D Good to see you around again Twylyte

Whilst Minotaur is right, we've got a full group, how about doing a reservist character?

Jimmy and Awe are still a little unsure of connection status when they get back to Uni at the moment, people won't be able to play for whatever reason one week...

Colours are simple at the moment, SG colours on your legs. This may change when costume slots open up though.
First session is September 2nd s if nothing else you're guaranteed a chat ;)

Ah, yes, I vaguely remember typing that...

Will do a roster post as soon as I can get pictures in and out of costume and photoedit them to my liking...

SG colours - what are they?

- willing to bet that out of eight somebody drops each weak. If not we could always split that week we'd have at least 5/4(?)

yea would like to start playing COH again.

You can create the costume with any colours you like, SG colours are grey/dark red, and if you play in SG mode, you can override the normal colours of the costume with the SG ones (in a customizable fashion from within the SG tab). The idea was that the costume would be based on tights. If you have a look at the roster thread, you'll see what people have done so far.

That's a not unreasonable bet ;). But due to the design of the group (Defenders and Controllers) you generally need at least 6 for it to work well properly as the group relies on being able to buff and debuff a hell of a lot for maximum effectiveness. Groups of 4 and 5 will work but they don't convey the sheer awesomeness that you get from a full 8 man team going up against a dozen +4s while barely breaking a sweat  ;D

If you're up for playing though just pop on most nights, there's normally someone around :)

Noooooo! I cannot make the first Saturday!  Oh forsake!  Oh woe is me and all my screaming fans!

Tuesdays are still good though :)

I was informed last night that the intention was to start about 12 on Saturday at which time I'll most likely be down the pub. Is it worth me preemptively bagging a few levels ? I expect to be back about 3 but may be off again about 7 for a curry, not sure yet.
