DEFENDERS ASSEMBLE

Hey guys, Kat here-- mun of that really popular super soldier, in case you're wondering.

So, I've talked to the mods about this, but I think Steve's going to take charge and do what he can to organize the defense of Somarium. So this is basically a post to throw around ideas on what they can do and who's willing in to join in on the effort to protect everyone.

I'm not really good at this sort of thing, but unfortunately my character is, so hopefully I don't fail all over the place, but my basic idea is this:

With the barrer is down, a good defensive position isn't exactly easy to get. Monsters will be coming in from all sides, so my thoughts were concentrate everything to Espoir. People can be brought to safety in the middle, where protection can be provided until they can evacuate. They can also take refuge in the tunnels under Espoir, as well.

Around the edges of Espoir, the police can make a defensive perimeter. Espoir is small compared to rest of Somarium, but it still isn't tiny, so any fighters will be spread thin. That's where you guys come in! Volunteers for fighting are gladly welcome, but I figure we can also have NPCs helping here, too.

Another thought was that Steve might put a few long range fighters/archers on the floating mountain. The access point is in Espoir, there are people that can fly, etc, so it wouldn't be too hard to get them up there. From there, they could keep an eye on where monsters are and relay information back to him on locations of fighters/monsters/etc, and they'll be especially useful there when the flying noctaere show up.

But yeah, that's basically what I've got so far! Any more ideas are great, and feel free to plot ideas for happenings in battle~ Steve might try and organize the fighters to certain groups to begin with, but considering the chaos of battle, I doubt it'll matter all that much in the end. People'll have to move around to chase monsters, move to other areas that need help, etc. So yeah, plot away!

EDIT 1: Thanks to several suggestions and me just being me, I drew up a very crude battle plan! in before any comments on the shape and colors I SWEAR I ORIGINALLY MADE IT IN DIFFERENT COLORS AND WAS TOLD TO CHANGE IT. Basically, the blue dots = close range fighters, the red is for the long range that need space, the gray is the choke spots, pulling the monsters in to the focus points, and the black is the perimeter around Espoir~

EDIT 2: OKAY, so I guess I'm really going to organize groups now? I started making a list by range type and abilities, and I'll split them up accordingly later. Also let me know if you don't like where I placed them! And do tell me if you have any preferences as to if you want your character fighting alongside certain other characters, and I'll adjust accordingly!

EDIT 3: Made a second post here with some updates and a team list~

As she's in the Avenger's Tower, at the outset of battle she'll be sticking close with Clint I assume. Teddy and Billy are better off flying to help out, so she might just hinder them.

Pretty much the same as Dick up there, my three will be sticking around for as long as possible (except for possibly Katara, pending cast plots and possibly wanting to go heal people).

[personal profile] hyper_rain 2012-07-19 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
Basil here is a mid-close range fighter (it's a boomerang with a blade edge) and can help.

I don't know how familiar you are with KHR, but he also has rain flames (they have the power of 'tranquility').

Oh! He also has his box weapon (the dolphin in icon).

Clint will be your eyes again.

Kaldur is probably going to want to help coordinate an effort with the YJ team and also be stubborn about leaving.

Setsuna and Bolin are probably also sticking around to help sooooo yeah I'm gonna be busy.

Suki is a close-range fighter, and will want to stay in the city until she knows everyone is safe. She will do what she's told, though she'll need a little wiggle room for avatar cast stuff <3 clearly XD

But yeah, she'll be happy to help out anyway she can.

couldnotfly: (wolf puppy)

[personal profile] couldnotfly 2012-07-19 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Count Zack in to help. He's got a broadsword and knows how to use it, along with some pretty decent magical spells. He can also offer some advice on how to further defend Espoir, such as creating choke points for the monsters to get stuck on and leaving less to actively defend with stretched manpower. Or something like that.

Either way, Zack'll help out!

Doh, forgot to mention: Zack won't be convinced to leave until the last possible second of Evacuation 2, so there's also that. And he has a dog so if that has to be evacuated first, he will be absent during Evac 1 but return as soon as possible.

Kakashi is willing to lend a hand wherever necessary. He's got mad ninja skillz. But mostly he just wants to make sure everyone gets out safely. He doesn't want all the responsibility of being in a police force, but he will help try and get people to safety and take down any monsters that attack.

Thor will be playing tank while you guys evac people. He can fly, so flying monsters are not a very big concern for him.

Jon's going to be around for the first round of attack, with Ghost. he's the kind of guy that'll defend anyone needing help. He'll stay in Ob Holm after to help the authorities there with keeping calm (and keeping an eye over his comatose castmate)

Russia will initially be wandering around with a flamethrower (and possibly along with Shane Walsh who has guns) to fight off random monsters. If the police/avengers can make a good argument for him to actually stay in a strategic place to help out, he will do so.

Depowered or not, M'gann is going to be helping out. The rest of her team is risking their necks, so she's going to be with them too! (She'll manage.)

She's only got hand to hand combat to rely on right now, so due to circumstances she's a close range fighter. If she ends up getting her powers back midway through the event (which is likely) then she can shift around to being a floater. And will possibly help Robin telekinetically tear out some support beams in a building and drop it on some monsters.
madcuriosity: (Oh how curious!)

[personal profile] madcuriosity 2012-07-19 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
So, this is the wrong account BUT

Serenity is capable of making a barrier. She won't, obviously, be fixing the one that was around Somarium. But putting one around Espoir is WELL within her powers and since her powers are based on PURE LIGHT it would also help and deter the Noctaere and the likes.

But, I don't know if you guys want a "protect all" sort of barrier around the actual village.

ALSO, you'll be getting whatever Manda and Erica come up with seeing as Pluto and Venus wouldn't leave Serenity or the city without helping it.

[personal profile] sirboastsalot 2012-07-19 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
Iron Man is long range, but he has had boxing lessons so short range is okay. So I guess you could put him down as a floater? He's a heavy hitter so I guess you could even just stick him in one of the choke spots by himself and he'd be good.
sirboastsalot: (oh how brilliant)

You can have Ty Lee as a close range fighter since she has her acrobatic skills and her pressure point. I'm assuming she'll be teaming up with Suki, but I'll double check with Mouse!

Pepper can be something of a...IDK, holding down the safe house kind of thing until Tony locks her in the suit? After that she'll be trekking off somewhere and gets picked up by Bruce and recuse stuff will occur.

Yamato's staying behind, and he doubles as a close range/far range guy, and he has two demons under his command - and one is a pretty damn good healer. So you can stick him anywhere where he might be useful.

Homura here is a long range combat person despite her age. She has her magical bow and arrows and can use a variety of long ranged weapons such as guns and bazookas. Her canon is weird I know.
