Spinstrike | Mega Man RPG Prototype Leaderboard

Hey pals, it's me, Spinstrike! Yep, I'm back, and just in time for the new update! So, here are my thoughts:

Chapter 1: The first chapter definitely has the most changes, at least on a superficial level. Sniper Joe was a neat addition, but I think Trill could be toned down a bit to provide a better transition to the Robot Master battles.

Chapter 2: Same as before, at least at first. The Sigma battles were a bit of a surprise, but they were a great challenge for postgame play.

Chapter 3: Like Meta said, the increasing difficulty for the rival battles is great for grinding. A little tougher than I remember.

Chapter 4: See Chapter 2.

Chapter 5: Enker and the Copy Bots are a bit tougher than I remember. They are the game's "final bosses" at the moment, so that makes sense.

Bonus Chapter: The addition of Mets, Sniper Joes, and the Copy Core robots was a nice touch, and I can assume the support trio are there as well. The difficulty hasn't changed that much, though.

By the way, does anyone now how to access Robot skins? They're not in the shop, and I haven't been able to unlock them via grinding.

Anyone remember this thread? Just me? Aw, well. There isn't a chat tonight, so I may as well take the time to post a few headcannons I've had lying around for a while.

o Metal Man is a skilled mechanic, and Wily often tasks him with repairing the other Robot Masters after Rock roughs them up. He isn't very gentle, though, and his bedside manner is lacking...
o Heat Man and Crash Man are best buddies. They hang out a lot on and off duty, and Heat is usually the one to calm Crash down whenever he gets riled up.
o After the events of Mega Man 4, Dr. Cossack employs Skull Man as a sort of lab assistant/butler/bodyguard. Oh, and as a babysitter and playmate for Kalinka.
o Proto Man is more musical than he lets on. Besides his trademark whistle, he's composed quite a few tunes while wandering the Earth. Whenever he visits Cossack Citadel, he and the similarly-minded Toad Man get together for a jam session or two.
o Fire Man enjoys watching reruns of Gunsmoke and old John Wayne westerns.
o Plug Man's favorite anime is Cowboy Bebop, followed closely by Space Dandy.
o Top Man is a total nerd for 70's-80's pop music, and has a ton of old-school tape decks in his quarters in Wily Castle. Magnet Man regularly scrambles them with stray electromagnetic pulses, much to Top's dismay.
o Rock is a rabid FIFA fan, especially when World Cup season rolls around(he always roots for Japan, of course). Mega Man's Soccer is the result of Bomb Man spiking one of Rock's E-Tanks during a particularly wild victory party.
o Guts Man isn't as thick-headed as his brothers think. He actually has incredible knowledge in civil engineering and classical architecture.

I know this doesn't exactly pertain to RP, but it is a formatting question, so...

Does anyone know how to post pictures directly from the web? Without saving them to your computer, I mean.

Well I, for one, think the update is coming along nicely. This "Dark Spires" thing actually seems like a nice idea. Though they look a bit familiar. Almost like I know them from somewhere....wait...

Uh-oh.

Uh-oh.

(OOC: Ah, but the Vorpal Pen uses printer's ink, which according to its MSD Sheet, does indeed pose a fire hazard.)

Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas to everyone here on the Prototype! Santastrike is here to deliver Christmas cheer! I know it's a little early for gifts, but here's a little something for you all!

@MetaKibSter: Hey, don't be a tuna-head. xColdxFusionx is a good guy, and this is no way to greet him after he's been gone for so long. Plus, I made this thread, so I'm a tad offended. >:(

Well…that certainly could have gone better.
Maybe if someone had stuck to the plan instead of running off and picking fights…
Hmph. Of course you’d blame me for your own strategically blunders. It’s not like our “fearless leader” had much of a plan anyhow…
Disco has a point, Air Man. Your arrogance is troubling.
Yeah, you’ve being a huge prick!
…
…what?
You know, it’s times like these that make me wish that I was the commander of this unit instead of that imbecile Liquid. Telsa knows why the Master placed him in charge.
Ahem. Gah! How did you-erm, I mean-
Boss, you’re alive!
[ But how did you survive?]{crystal }
That is of little importance now. There are more pressing matters at hand. Such as these two…
Ugh! Let us go, you creep!
You’re gonna pay for trashing my pad, jerk!
Wood Man, Needle Man, would you be so kind as to deal with these prisoners?
Yes, sir!

[OOC: Whelp, here it is! My latest chapter in a long, long time!]
What’s our status?
They’ve got us pinned down, boss! Er—no pun intended…
There are simply too many of them. I suggest we fall back.
Too many? Pah! Step aside, cowards!
Sir, I don’t—Sir!
*Liquid rushes off to the front line.*There he is!
Ribbit! Blast him, quickly!
I’ve got him in my sights!
Show no quarter, friends!
Heh…you fools have no idea who you’re dealing with, do you? Let’s see how you handle my true power!Top…Spi-oof!
Got ‘im!

@Btman: Sorry I've taken so long! I've been pretty busy these last few months, so I haven't had much time to post. I'll have my next scene up by tonight.
