Villain Night#1: Sodomy and You - The Barracuda Strike Force

Join the discussion HERE.
EDIT: I've pushed the date back by a week. It was suggested that we use the original date to do the prep work, like obtaining Shivans and nukes. The new event will occur on Thursday, Jan 6th, 2011. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Unless I do some serious PLing, I'll have a choice of Fire/NRG/FIre blaster or Elec^3 blaster. If we run Marq's zombie arc about 10 more times, I'll have a Dark^3 scrapper.

My first choices (in no particular order) are my Fire/Pain Corr, my Fire/Fire Dom, or a Fortunata.
If none of them fit, I could bring my Elec/Elec Brute or a Rad/Rad Corr.

Wasn't able to get on last night to load up with nukes. My internet connection at home has been flakey. I'll be on hopefully an hour before start time to try getting nukes if anyone else wants to join.

I was there, but to no avail. For some reason I was bugged and could not get the techs to follow me after the first one. It just kept saying" Take this one to safety, and come back for me", even when nobody was following me. Kinda wierd, but I helped Gopher, Doc and NL......

Indeed; your help was invaluable. I have my very first nuke now!
Looking forward to logging on tonight, though it will not be until the Strike Force is well underway as usual, due to not getting off work until after 5pm my time.
Ah well....

We rocked Reichsman in 2 hours. The team had A Tank, A Brute, and 4 Corruptors. The ambushes didnt start until we attacked him, then we pulled back into the tunnel junction and fought the ambushes for 20 minutes or so until they stopped, then went back to beating on Reichs with the help of a few Shivans. Went very smooth with hardly any deaths. Good job guys!

Wow, awesome everyone! I'm sick (again.....this time strep throat) so I wasn't in any shape to play tonight, but I'm really happy you guys were able to take him out!!
I'll be around next time to rock his tiny world

Congrats on your success!

Thanks! The closest thing we had to a problem was that the fight took so long, our first round of Shivans "died of old age."
I had a great time. Doc, thanks for leading!

Sorry I missed this. Internet still wasn't in shape for playing. I've been nice on my customer support calls thus far. But not tonight if it's still a no go.

In the future, the strategies we have learned and used will make this a cake-walk. Reichsman is a pussycat once immobilized and taunted. The ambushes were by far the most dangerous aspect of this fight. By waiting them out in the corridor, with a tank at either end and the squishies clustered in the center around a healer, it was merely a matter of patiently outwaiting them. Other strategies may also be effective, depending on team make-up, but I highly recommend this one if possible. I look forward to running this again soon!
P.S.- This wouldn't have been possible without the excellent teamwork of such great players. Thanks again guys!

I'd also like to point out that Marq's research into the strategy was key last night. We were beneath Reichsman's notice while standing just outside his room in the bottle neck. I believe that we could start to repeat this SF with success.
