Basically, we took turns coming up with a mission (whatever we wanted it to be) and then asked for everyone in the group to come up with a team that fulfilled each mission parameter of the scenario.
Figured that this might be fun for us Hiss Tankers, so I thought I'd use one of my original missions as the first one.
For added visual enjoyment, we used micro-heroes found at: http://jerome.galica.free.fr/divers/gijoe/gijoe.htm
to make things a bit more fun. I'll post the first mission, Operation: Chill Out, as an attachment to this post and hopefully, it'll be fun for all.
YO JOE! |

My scenario goes as follows...
Metal Gear awakens (Cobra & The Patriots team up) Activate Metal Gear....Nuclear disaster...THE END

Snake-Eyes and Scarlett to act as the infiltration specialists and to eliminate threats that arise. Salvo, Zap and Bazooka to attack roving Hiss tanks and Fangs, and to provide a distraction a couple miles from the new base-in-progress, thus taking the heat off the infiltration team. Breaker to keep both groups coordinated.

| | Stamping out Trotskyism Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: New Castle, Delaware Posts: 1,755 | Snake-Eyes and Scarlett as the infiltration team (yes, blatantly stealing from CynthiaCM, but it gets different from here) - but I'd replace Scarlett with Storm Shadow IF we're placing it at a time where SS is a Joe.
Stalker, Snow Job and Frostbite, w/Snow Cat, to engage the Snow Serpents&Tanks. Stalker can also serve as a medic if the hostages require treatment.
Lift Ticket w/Tomahawk, to drop off the team&Snow Cat
Backblast, to keep the Fangs busy
Flint, as team leader and general ass-kicker. No real good reason here. I just like Flint, and he can serve as co-pilot on the Tomahawk, I suppose.
BTW, fun game dude. Keep 'em coming. |

Low Light, Cross Hairs and Barrel Roll outside, providing sniper cover fire.
Snake Eyes, Tunnel Rat & Storm Shadow for the infiltration team. Tunnel Rat blows the base, with SE's assistance and SS playing interceptor.
After SE, SS and Rat take care of business, Shockwave and team leader Beachhead bust in. The five of them could take the five targets easily. Hardest one to subdue would be Zartan.
So-
Storm Shadow, Beachhead, Shockwave, Snake Eyes, Tunnel Rat, Barrel Roll, Low Light and Crosshairs. |

The man is a master of Micro Heroes, has made literally thousands of them from varying movies, television shows, comics, and whatnot. As for how to make your own, there are various HOW-TO sites out there.
Glad people are enjoying this so far. |

As a secondary thing...Anyone have a suggestion for a name for this Game? Let me know.  |
