Issue 11 is out!

With the latest issue hot off the training room, I11 is up and running. Harken the return of the scrapper! Dual Blades now adds a long-cried-for powerset for Scrapper primaries and Tank secondaries (also Brutes and Stalkers). This also marks the introduction of the combo attacks, giving the damage archetypes additional buffs/debuffs.
Not forgetting the Willpower powerset, which gives a combination of defense, resistance and healing, bringing "active-tanking" back to the City of series.
This issue also brings into play the ability to change your hand-held weapons like costume parts - take for example Tragos, who is a Mace-wielding Tank - he now bats baddies around with a mud-sodden shovel, and sometimes, a magically-enhanced staff.

Tragos, now with shovel attack..


Look out for more news and pictures in future posts!

Caught with both guns blazing!



LOOK OUT! One of our insiders to the Rogue Isles underground network managed to get rare photographic evidence of one "Donnie Rocco", Mastermind. Unfortunately, his angle was off and the victim cannot be positively identified.
Once a lowly thug working for Burke, Donnie has risen quickly through the ranks to now command a myriad of gun-wielding punks and uzi-toting enforcers. With ambition like his, we can only expect more crimes and high times from one such as he. We just hope the Rogue Island Police get him soon or we could be next on his list!!

Issue 10 has been announced!

I10 has been announced. Quite soon after I9, and the dust has not even yet settled (ie. market has not really settled down, prices have not dipped enough yet).
Prepare yourselves for the second coming of the Rikti.... This should be quite a big deal, afterall CoH itself was born at the end of the First Rikti Invasion. Remember when Hero 1 led a suicidal team of heroes to take the battle back to the Rikti? I see some story-line possibilities here!
So anyway, for I10, they are updating the Rikti crash site (which I don't even recall ever visiting..) and making it into a zone where Heroes n Villains can combine forces to take down the Rikti in what I think are either story arcs through several contacts (like Croatoa) and/or a Taskforce. It's set to be a level 35-50 zone.
So the Rikti look different, there's been updated graphics and new units I think. Good news for Hemingway, the best Spines/Regen on this blog, he should be happy since hunting Rikti was his favourite past-time in his pre-50 days in PI (apart from solo-ing +2 Warhulks and Fake Nemesis at the same time that is).

Evilcrombie & F'etch

This is Evilcrombie & F'etch having a tiff mid-way through tearing up an Arachnos base. Tsk tsk, take it out on the baddies, boys!
As you can see, they resolved their differences by mish end, and this is one of the cleaner ways to celebrate!

We haven't really introduced these guys properly yet, I'll leave that to @Tragos to do it - their backstory is flamingly hilarious, entirely invented by her creatively warped mind!















F'etch looks happy! But where did Evilcrombie go? Argue not with the Villain with the monstrous head...
