GWC Community V2 Team Discussion

From what I have read about him he appears to be a God. Can you elaborate on his ‘mortal phase’?

Thank you. I can’t even blame THAT one on AutoCorrect. =)

OK Lessee…

Team Ominous Latin Phrase

Pilot-Cid (FF7)

He fights, he flys, his gruff yet lovable, Who wouldn’t want him on thier team?

Tech- Jonas Venture Jr (JJ) (The Venture Bros.)

The More competant of the two Venture adults. A little neurotic, but charasmatic and ingenius, can actually invent things, unlike his twin.

Recon- Ezio Auditore de Firenze (Assassian’s Creed II)

Can climb just about anything, stealthy, and can see people’s true intetions via eagle vision. Can also kick some serious ass when needed

Martial Artist- Seong Mina (Soul Caliber)

She’ll kick your ass and look good doing it. All that really needs to be said.

This explanation may contain spoilers, although they arent really big in nature, I still don’t want to ruin it for anyone who didn’t play and might want a surprise in terms of the story.

[spoiler]He’s a god for about five minutes into the second game before getting his powers stripped from him by zeus. other than that, he is completely a mortal. he can use some magic bestowed to him by the gods: for instance, raise the dead for a few seconds, or throw lightning bolts from his hand, but aside from that, he is still able to die, and these powers themselves are limited in scope, if you compare them to the omnipotency a god would have wielding them.

so long as he is in mortal “form”, (i.e. in a phase before becoming the god of war or after his powers are taken away from him) theres nothing really that should prevent him being a playable character. [/spoiler]

Tech:Lucius Fox:

When it comes to Black Ops Tech it doesn’t get much blacker than the bat.

Recon: Samuel Anders

Martial Artist: Samurai Jack

Ooops, Lucius Fox is already taken by another team.

Sean has ultimate ruling authority, but I feel your logic is sound. I have an image in my head from some movie where an immortal is made mortal and he is totally surprised when he begins bleeding…or was that Arnold Schwarzenegger in Last Action Hero? Either way, point made methinks. :smiley:

I put Kratos in the Team Bracket for now so that no one else can claim the character. If Sean rules him out, it can be changed.

All right a bit of a late start but here it goes.

Team: Get Stuff Done

Pilot- John Crichton (Farscape)
Tech- Anakin Solo (not to be confused with Anakin Skywalker)
Recon- Ryu Hyabusa (Ninja Gaiden)
Martial Artist- Race Bannon (Johnny Quest)

:cool:

John Crichton is a great choice. :slight_smile:

Hail Ringthane! How goes the wielding of the white gold? :stuck_out_tongue:

Joining late, because I’ve been out of town!

Team Multimedia Girl Power!

Pilot/Driver: Princess Isplourrdacartha Estillo “Plourr Ilo” (Star Wars: X-wing - Comics)
Tech Expert: Jordan Cochran (Real Genius - Movies)
Recon Expert: Sookie Stackhouse (Southern Vampire Mysteries - Books)
Martial Artist: Toph Bei Fong (Avatar: The Last Airbender - TV)

Sorry to say, but Toph has been taken. You can check out the brackets here to see if anybody else you want to pick has already been grabbed.

I should have known, for Toph is awesome! In that case, I pick…

Lana Kane, from Archer for Martial Artist!

After much thought I present

Team: Puffy Mushroom

Pilot: Chance AKA T-bone(Swat Cats)
Tech: Jake AKA Razor (Swat Cats)
Recon: Rorschach (Watchmen)
Martial Artist: Monkey D. Luffy (One Piece)

Team Awesome

Pilot: James Rhodes aka War Machine
Tech/Weapons: Henry McCoy aka Beast
Recon: James Bond (Craig) aka 007
Martial Artist: Tommy Arashikage aka Storm Shaddow

So, it took me some time. For a bit there, I felt like all the good characters were taken. I think however, that one really just has to dig down a little Deeper into one’s scifi-experience.

I present for your approval… or not,

Team Castor Oil

Pilot/Driver: Cliff Secord/ The Rocketeer
Tech Expert: Professor Yana
Recon Expert: Ravage (G1)
Martial Artist Name: Morpheus (I’m really surprised that he’s not already taken)

Morpheus will be powerless outside of the matrix.

Well, yes and no.

Downloading data and skills is not dependent on the Matrix, only the chair and the computer system. He may not be able to jump tall buildings in a single bound, but he still makes one heck of a fighter. That said, I have dialed down his stats accordingly.

One of the teams has Neo in play…why not Morpheus.

It took me about 3 days of serious consideration, but I’m ready to unveil my team, Phoenix:

Pilot: Husker (Viper Pilot W. Adama), BSG

Recon: Miles Vorkosigan, the Vorkosigan Saga

Tech: Walter Bishop, Fringe

Martial Artist: Alice, Resident Evil

I’ll cross post to the team brackets thread and PM Sean (sorry, no time to mess with the cards, and yours will be prettier anyhow).

Meanwhile, y’all just wait til I drop my Take Out the Trash scenario on you!
