Some might find this a bit premature, but considering a number of us are creating arcs that we'll port over to live when I14 goes live, I figured this was a good idea to start up.

If you've been reading the different threads, then you probably have seen a few MArc names popping up...rather than let that all get bogged down by other discussion...let's have a single thread where everyone can post their MArcs - a directory of sorts.


Now, to make things easier and cleaner for those that want to reference this thread please follow the guidelines below -

No extraneous comments. I know it might suck to not share feedback, but let's avoid posts like 'Wow, loved your arc ____'.

One post by each member. You can update your post as often as you like with any new MArcs or ones you've removed. This way it keeps each person's MArcs in the same place instead of in 5 different posts.


When you make your post, try to follow the format (without the quote part) -


Quote:
Arc Name:
Arc ID: (Optional)

Synopsis:
Difficulty Level: (Optional, but encouraged to mention if EB(s) or AV(s) )
Faction: (Optional)

Estimated Time to Play/Number of Missions:
Morality: (Hero/Villain/Neutral)




*Edited post to shamelessly steal from Ex Libris' MArc info listing.

Great idea, Razor!

Trouble Brewing! - alignment Hero, medium length (three missions)
Featuring the Jamaican Captain America, Italian fascists, killer robots, and an espresso machine that transforms into... you'll have to play it to find out!
Tanker Blue Mountain has received his tax refund and ordered the most amazing commercial espresso machine, the Steam-O-Tron 3000. Unfortunately he missed the delivery person. If you offer to pick it up for him maybe he'll brew you a shot. Enjoy a relaxing espresso with Jamaica's premier super hero.


Time's New Roman - alignment Hero, medium length (three missions)
Featuring colorful lingerie, disappearing detectives, and one of history's greatest strategists screaming profanities in ancient Latin.
Decorated PPD Detective Marc Scipio left an earlier press conference, went into his office, and simply disappeared. When detectives entered his office they observed that it appeared the room's contents had simply been erased. The Midnight Squad needs your help!


Now live:
Everybody's a Critic - alignment Villain, short length (two quick missions)
Featuring a confrontation with The Golden Gadfly, whose fearsome powers of Super-Criticism will make you feel blue before he layers on the black and-!
It began with hushed comments and snickering teammates in the hall's of Animosity's villain base. Then that Ballista cracked wise and a whole room full of Longbow doubled over with laughter. Why are you suddenly the butt of everyone's jokes? Hey - there's a link to a Spewtube video on the Supergroup Computer with your name on it. Maybe the answer lies there...

The Soul of Koschei: (Heroic)

The Outcasts have broken into an old MAGI building to steal some artifacts. Flux, unable to break cover, asks you to stop them. Five mission arc.

Mission I: Outcasts... 1 artifact to find, Defeat Pyrescar
Mission II: Outcasts... rescue Grunk, Defeat Frozen Sun
Mission III: Mix... 8 treasure chests to find, Defeat Ivan the Miserable
Mission IV: CoT... 3 mystic anchors to destroy, 3 mystic binders to defeat
Mission V: Servants of Bat'zul (yes, those fiery chicken things from CoV), Defeat Baba Yaga (currently set as EB - which should scale to a normal boss on heroic)

Easiest way to find it in the list is to search for "Koschei" - I think it's still the only thing that comes up. By popular demand, the level ranges have been "leveled off" so that you never go up in level range AND THEN BACK DOWN. This was done by moderating the level range of mission 4 so that it remained in the 10-15 range of the previous 3 missions.

Added a second arc for Villianside
Arc Name: The Gorgon Maneuver: Euryale's Strikeforce

Synopsis: The immortal Euryale approaches you to assist the snakes with their fight against a new enemy that has invaded their caverns...
Difficulty Level: mission 1 and mission 5 use a custom group and are a bit on the more difficult side as a result. Mission 3 contains an EB, Mission 5 contains an AV
Faction: Villian
Estimated Time to Play/Number of Missions: 5 missions... I soloed it in about an hour and a half, though I couldn't beat the AV solo [EDIT: I did manage this solo without a shivan on my 50, a storm defender]

Can't edit my post...

So, my first arc, Temper, Temper has had a few more run throughs and had some tiny fixes (all allies should be helping) and highlighted time limit text. Also now provides a warning that there are EBs/AVs.

But the big news is that I've finished my second arc.

Arc Name: Temptation
Arc ID: 13888

Synopsis: Cui Jin is tired of living in his older brother's shadow and now he's going to do something about it. Help straighten out this case of sibling rivalry gone awry.
Difficulty Level: Tough. No EBs but the Bosses are very tough.
Faction: Circle of Thorns, Arachnos

Estimated Time to Play/Number of Missions: 4 missions. Most maps are pretty small.
Morality: Heroic.

I've published my first arc, a single short, and I hope fun, mission. Your feedback would be really appreciated!

Arc Name: Brute Squad vs. Hero Scouts and the Soccer Mom
Arc ID: 15937

Synopsis:
When a group of villains tries to take a pleasant weekend fishing trip in order to patch up their friendship after one of them tries to kill another in a factional dispute within Arachnos, the tranquility of their fishing hole is ruined by an incursion of Paragon City Hero Scouts. The Scouts call in Longbow, all of the villains except for you get captured, and you've got to go rescue them, chase off the Hero Scouts, and make sure that they never come back by scaring the dreaded Soccer Mom.

I've got one I've started working on. ID #34074, called His Brother's Keeper. I still need to tweak it a little, some text and spawns need adjusting, but if anyone would care to try it out and supply some feedback, I'd love that.

Thanks,
Gate

Difficulty Level: One boss.

Also, I stole like 80% of the custom group from Reflector, but my guys look better. big grin

My first MArc. 5 Large maps, all Freakshow. Definitely soloable, though you might wanna set it to Heroic for the last mission cuz the EB is full-on Regen, which can be a pain.

Anyway, it's a great XP arc with the Freak XP bonuses, and I had some fun with the mission text and dialogue.
