Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

One of the sentries spotted it first, a tugboat coming from the direction of the base. The radio had finally sputtered and died a few minutes ago, so Emily had no way of communicating with it. Apparently the message had gotten through though, or at least part of it had. A few of the crew jumped up a...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

"Ah, got it!" Emily smiled in triumph as her repair efforts paid off. The waterlogged radio was working - for now - and with that they could call for help from their allies in the area. "This is Captain Emily Hunt and the Regal Copper Luna, calling allied forces in the area. We are downed in the wat...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

The support from the Norwegian dragon had allowed the RAF crew a bit of time to gather and organize. Nearly all of the British crewmembers were back on their dragon now, having been helped a great deal by the friendly medium providing cover. However, it looked like the Valdemarian was flying off aga...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity of swimming, Emily and the few crewmembers with her reached the still-afloat Luna. The great Regal was injured and stuck, but not yet defeated, and that was the important part. As the handful of crew scrambled around the harness looking for any undamaged e...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

My degree is in aerospace engineering. I've got one more year of school left, and I'll be finishing up with a Master's in the same.

Anyone got ideas for Emily and poor waterlogged Luna? Unless I can post Luna waking up and doing something, I seem to be stuck and in need of help.

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

Emily hit the water hard, but luckily after the giant wave had already swept past. She spotted a few crewmembers, both friendly and hostile, who had gotten a bit waterlogged from the enormous result of the impact. Off in the distance, she spotted the Royal Marine contingent already forming together ...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

Despite the warnings from the lookouts and the rapid fire shells into the faces of the Italian mediums, they still managed to close the distance and with practiced precision impacted and grappled Luna. Here, several thousand feet in the air, it was too low to fight them off before hitting the water,...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

"Valdemarian to friendly Regal Copper, arrest your dive or they will drag you into the sea. You do not want to fight them there." Emily heard the advice from the radio, as did Luna. Though the Nimbuses were still in the air and undamaged, the diving attack had done its job of breaking the formation ...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

Emily had certainly not expected to be thrown into combat, nor have combat fling itself at her and her crew. So when the call came out, she was caught flat-footed and the crew were in a similar state of distraction. Still without orders, or a greeting from the commanding officer, or any sort of offi...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

High above and out in the distance, a sleek black silhouette cut through the sky, unnoticed by all those embroiled in the conflict below. As it approached and descended, a fiery copper-gold pattern emerged from the blackness, plunging from the sky and growing larger and larger if anyone on the groun...

Re: His Majesty's Dragons: World at War

Yeah I have no issues with changing the weight, I just guessed based on the fluff piece in the wiki description. I'll drop it down to 45 tons. Is the length fine? For "aerobatics", I pictured something more like this: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z_fgvGsulA[/youtube] Like you said, it's ...

Here's one bit. It's Thalia's harried, hurried goodbye speech to the cult leader she's leaving behind. More story bits to come. ----- Listen well, I need to tell you what happened, and why I’m leaving. No, don’t try to argue with me, I need to go. But I need you to understand why. This whole mes...

Gah, something up this weekend, I swear! Go ahead and start up the background and whatnot to the campaign, my story should slot in without any difficulties since it's pretty much self-contained.

Yes, I am still here, don't worry. Just have work and band camp on top plus oh, school starting too. I think I will tell the story of Thalia's cult, discovering the others, and then deciding to go adventuring, in the same style as the other pieces - being told to some cult leader that Thalia is leav...
