Operation Relay: A Success! |
|
Aug 13, 08 - 9:43 PM - by PINKY

Today Calypsian Colonists were successful in holding off the Rx Units, allowing a secret government agent time to pass over weapons utilizing a new technology, a unique electrolyte compound, that greatly enhances firepower.
At 19:00 UTC August 13th, I joined the ranks of the Calypsian elite, arming myself with a Determination sword borrowed from my society leader Safara and a Foxtrot Plasma rifle with an E-15 amp borrowed from fellow reporter Jimmy B. Both weapons able to inflict in excess of 20 damage through the Reworked Infiltrator Armour the Rx Units are known to use.
Setting off 10 minutes before Zero hour, my special squad, The TDO's teleported just outside the Rx base in PvP1. After gathering our strength and a stirring speech from Safara along the lines of "This is bloody mental, every man for himself!!", we charged.....
With little guidance or leadership from the government, the fighting was chaotic, many people got caught in the crossfire only to be saved by the Revival Terminals, but still we fought on. After fighting for about 30 minutes, it became evident that a number of colonists guns were malfunctioning... for a moment it seemed almost like we were killing each rather than the Rx Units, but that of course would be absurd.
 Some time passed and still I had not seen an Rx unit through the smoke and shrapnel, the special TDO squad were in disaray - our internal communication channel, known as team speak had collapsed under the increased strain. I was on my own when I met my first Rx unit. Recovering back at the revival, I came upon a new stealth tactic. Using my Heads Up Display I could drag the Rx Unit's Health status bar from them when they themselves revived at the same terminals I was stationed at. The result being when I teleported back into the action, The Rx units were instantly locatable. I was mightly impressed with my ingenuity and reported my finding to my commander immediately "Yes, we all have health bars coming out of our ears!" was his scathing reply. Ignoring the chants of "PvP noob" from the other team members, I was back into the battle.
27 Deaths and a dented pride later, I managed to get my first hit on an Rx unit, 53 points of damage! I had done my bit for Calypso and decided to stay dead for a while, observing the ongoing fight.
We lost many a good soldiers this day, but we were victorious. Numerous Rx Units were destroyed, with some people such as the brave and hansome Ogulak'Da'Dragon killing as many as 4 Units and receiving a cb21 from the government officials in thanks. A number of people even managed to receive the New technology... [Read More]

Arokh - Enter the Dragon! Wednesday's Who's Who... |
|
Aug 08, 08 - 8:07 PM - by PINKY
|
After several death threats were issued via PM to a number of Entropia Forum staff regarding the recent lack of Who's Who articles, 711 has given me a stern talking to and told me if I did get an article out soon he would be employing a rather large Maffoid to "rough me up"... So, here it is, I present to you one of my favourite Entropians of all time... in the first "Random time of the Week Who's Who".... Arokh!
 Before I ask any deep probing questions (my favourite kind!), I ask Arokh to tell me a little about himself; "Well, I have been playing since mid 2005, so 3 years and a bit assuming my maths isn't off. I normally hang out around Twins ring with my TT Mod Merc (M2100) having a bit of PK fun. Met lotsa nice people there and have had some good laughs. Otherwise I'm healing / focussing at swamp camp, or paying Emma and Simon, the MA guides a visit."
Having been a member of Terra Verde Society for most of his Entropian career, Arokh is pretty well known around the New Arrivals Zone and has helped out on a few of Simon and Emma's events, as well as being a key player in the famous Newbie Terra Verde Event The Oil Rig Field Trip. Arokh recently got to meet some of the friends he made in Terra Verde when he travelled over 3000 miles and met up with Mikah (the founder), status and qc. "We had a little get together and went to various places, including Disney World... Yes, I'm a big kid but always wanted to go!" He chuckled, "Unfortunately the magic there didn't make all the screaming kids or long queues disappear, but I guess you can't have everything. We rowed out into the Everglades to go camping at one point, but unfortunately things went a bit wrong on the way back, and we ended up having to call someone tow us back to safety. About halfway back the one of the canoes with all mine and qc's gear in it tipped over. Typical!"
In addition to travelling all the way to the states to meet up with Entropian friends, Arokh also travelled down to London earlier this year for DannyO's London meet up. "I really have to thank DannyO for taking the time to organise it - it was a blast. Finally got to put faces to the avatars, hug and harass 'em in real life too! Although didn't get to chat to everyone I wanted to on the second night thanks to the loud music. Shouting at people didn't seem polite, and sadly I don't know sign language. :/"
"I think the whole train fiasco was funny. Especially when I trusted Safara to put me on the right train back home. He ended up sending me to Chester instead of Manchester, and I spent most of the day travelling around the UK to find my way... [Read More]
