Nature vs Nurture :P I believe both helped develop her into what she became.

The game is starting in January of 3039. Wait, did I type 3039 in the dates for those ComStar RPs?*runs off to check*

crap. Those are supposed to be the end of 3038, as in just before the start of 3039. Thats a mental oversight on my part, sorry to make people wonder. We're starting the game January 1st, 3039.

Eh, Kali could do better  8)

Yeah, Space Spock does seems like a better catch, but his end is worse than Ragnar's.

I guess that means that Melissa will be in Liao maternity wear. On the bright side, the Suns still has its own Victor, Atlas, and Wolverine production facility plus the extra Marauder line : on the negative, the other Jagermech line still is in their possession. Plus, the Marduk Labor Unions will still have time to invest in tickets off planet if the planet is lost somewhere down the line.

For the Combine, they don't have Jagermech lines which to some is a blessing. It gets nothing for the Free Rasalhague Republic though, but for my former Combine Masters, I may have gotten three regiments out of the AFFS which in canon did absolutely nothing during the war. It's the thought that counts, right?

Fatebringer

I was more excited about being close to the 3040 mech releases :P Oh well.

Daemonknight

Sorry to disappoint you Fate. But you know how much I love monkeying with your master plans, right? ;)

Oddly (or not, depending on your read on the matter) all the canon depicts Romano as a loving and devoted mother.  As for Kali, she was only very mildly crazy until after Sun Tsu had her tried for war crimes over the nerve gas incedent (something that wouldn't have been noteworthy few sucecssion wars ago), as near as I can tell.  She only seems to have gotten really, really rediculious after that.  Though I'm still haven't made my way to some of the newer material yet, so Masters and Minions might hint that that's not the case.

Parmenion

Sorry folks for not keeping up with the responses to my PMs, but I've been dealing with sick kids recently, including one with tonsillitis. I told him to eat a bag of cement and harden up.  For some reason, that didn't work  :-\

Totally understood, the jokes here are not reflected in our posts, all of the CC IC posts so far really show that the kids are beloved and getting lots of attention from the parental units.

Say what you will about Romano, I think Thomas Marik put it best. [Let me be blunt here. Romano was an insane, murderous bitch. She compelled authority through terror and might've gutted her own population were it not for Tsen Shang. Such a tyrant was, perhaps, what the Confederation needed in this war. A more sane person might've realized her nation was doomed.] ~ Brush Wars, Pg 84.

Oddly, I always felt that the war was one of her saner moments.  A 'crazy person' or 'mad women' can't really make the sort of very rational decisions needed to drive back an invader.  You don't really need to be paraoid during an invasion; its eminantly clear who your enemy is and what you need to do about it.  Its in peace time that her imagination was able to run a bit wild, and she had to start finding enemies where none existed.

That said, in as much as my parental instinct is pushing me to make the kids as normal as possible (just like Romano, I have a son and daughter two years appart, though they're three and one), I fully hope to try and explore Romano's 'madness' as much as possible.  I think it will be one of my greater RP challanges, and I look foward to trying to see where just-plain-crazy meets crazy-like-a-fox.

FYI I will be absent for 3 Weeks, I hope that is ok.

Had not much contact with chaos yet, but afterwards I will likely need some distraction, so I will make my presence felt. :) I guess.

See ya then. And may the game prosper. \/

ThreeGees

Got my Turn Zero stuff done, though I think I malfed up one section of it. This was difficult for me as it is my first time leading a Faction, much less looking at an Order Sheet

Iron Mongoose

Well, there is a way we can help make things easier...

FWL First House to get theirs in! Woot!

For those asking questions about 'where is Melissa?' I should think the RP about her being pregnant, and thus stuck on Liao right now handles that.  No spaceflight in the third trimester.  Hugin as Nondi can field the question as to why, unless I feel like giving a no questions statement as MSD. ;)
