Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo
-
@Adora a friend’s bad roll, yeah. On the other hand, if this was a random person joining a scene, gotta say yeah. That’s a bad look.

-(OOC)- Hadrix Kora says, “Hello. I was informed that House Panteer ordered a Mando Pizza”
Oh wow, just as cringy as I expected and yet more at the same time
-
Everything y’all tell me about Mando Pizza makes me just want to go to YouTube and look up Robot Chicken Boba Fett compilations, because he sounds like those but with no self-awareness.

It’d be far easier to just cheat the characters’ sheets than come up with that BS.

Well, yeah. Because all things Mandalorian and Boba Fett were cringe until Baby Yoda.

Every Hadrix pose looks something like this:
‘Hadrix descends from the sky with his very specific brand of jet pack that’s really expensive. He holsters his Modified E-11 after ensuring that nobody present is a threat to him. His Warmaster Armor glitters in the Sun as if it were the only one of its kind on the grid, which it is. Then he walks up to the bar with a feline grace that belies his truly impressive bulk. He stops next to (attractive female) at the bar and says ‘Hello. I’m Hadrix. I’m a Mandalorian.’’
He always seems disappointed when he doesn’t get a big reaction…

@Anony-Mouse I can confirm. If you don’t fight in the exact way they like, they relentlessly shit-talk you. I’ve seen them drive off at least one person that way.

@DarthSmegma Needs more purple prose, body language, and self-aggrandizement. But points for actually speaking in the opening pose. 1.5/10.

The fanwanking was always the worst part of the whole Mandalorian thing in Star Wars. They outdid Jedi for the sheer amount of that, and even ‘The Mandalorian’ hasn’t stopped it.

I first heard about it with sniping, which was weird enough because people do play snipers (even if I knew the real reason for it at the time), but none of them were in Aryn’s clique. When it got to fighting walkers… well, that’s just insane. You wouldn’t stand out in the open and make ‘come and get me’ gestures to a real-life battle tank! Why would you do it to a walker?!
-
@mietze Unless they use a stainless steel or chrome-plated scrotum… or, worse, an actual bull scrotum (I actually saw this on a livestock trailer once)…
The implication is that the lack of such on other vehicles… well, you probably get the idea. Always struck me as unbelievably arrogant and tasteless.

I get not liking snipers, wanting to hide far away from the danger zone… no risk, all reward. There are better solutions than what they did, though.

You taunt the walker to distract them/lure them into the firing solution of the anti-armor weapons you already have set up. Sort of like… I dunno… Ewoks luring a walker in to get guerilla tactics’d to death.
Doesn’t sound like that’s what they did here, though. Shame.
-
Speaking of lame Manbro stuff. Can anyone confirm that Cujo “plays” Boba Fett?
Heavy emphasis on the air quotes.
-
@DarthSmegma He does. He also plays Wes Jansen.

Doesn’t sound like that’s what they did here, though. Shame.It definitely wasn’t. There were no anti-armor weapons set up and no firing solutions calculated. Also, doing that is a great way to have them turn you into a bloody smear on the ground with the first shot from their main gun.
It was just Aryn’s laziness when it comes to non-clique players at work. Clique does all the important stuff, so why read anybody else’s poses and react to them? It got to where she’d specifically delineate things that wouldn’t be allowed in her scenes.
Granted, if you skipped an Aryn event, you weren’t missing much. They were badly done, and if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen 'em all.

So ignore my earlier ‘maybe people have changed, it has been 20 years’. Apparently not. Same old shit, different decade.

@Wizz reminds me a dude i knew who i could always spot on whatever mush he was on because he would clutter up pub and ooc poses about how manly he was, bronco busting, motorcycle riding, ex military who was also getting his phd and part of important think tanks. I mean, i suppose it could be true, but. Whenever someone needs to speak a little too much about how they need to go be a big strong dude and lift some bricks out of their big ass truck for their little wimminfolk I start meanly thinking that they’re just the type of person who gets mad if their partner doesn’t recognize their major contribution to the household caretaking of taking their plate to the sink, and who probably has one of those rubber scrotums tied on to their never been used hitch to their truck.
speaking of which, why in the hell aren’t there vulvas you can stick on your vehicle. I would so get one for my minivan.
I can’t tell if the I think the thing that depresses me the most about this post is
- I have a feeling I know exactly who you’re talking about
or - This could apply to more than one person I know of
- I have a feeling I know exactly who you’re talking about
-
@Anony-Mouse Yep. Only anti-armor weapons players can get are a pair of missile launchers that use Artillery, which is a barely used skill, or a six foot rifle you have to fire from a bipod.

The part about scenes that are nothing but fight scenes and the way those scenes were conducted sounds exactly like Fanty from SerenityMUSH (another DSS failfest, like AoA). Her scenes were rushed, no planning to speak of was allowed, only a hare-brained charge into the situation, whereupon everyone involved largely got shot full of holes and was stuck in the infirmary for days waiting for the ‘doctor bed’ healing device and a PC who could turn it on to become available (those same ‘doctor bed’ devices are strongly reminiscient of the bacta tanks on AoA, and are not the only code on AoA that sounds a lot more like SerenityMUSH).
The nom farming reminds me more of Inara, from the same trainwreck, but Fanty may have done some of this, too. It was a common thing among the worst of SerenityMUSH’s staff.
I have it on good authority that a lot of SerenityMUSH players and staffers flocked to AoA when Mal abandoned the game some years back, and the bulk of his abusive staff friends left with him. No sense hanging around if the gravy train’s left the station, I suppose.
