OOC - Interim Plot Stuff

[governmentninja]

Since the RP has kind of stalled into a holding pattern for various reasons, and I figure most of us aren't really content with sitting on our hands for the time being, I've thought up a few ideas to play out in the interim.

I've been think that, instead of taking a "Let's shoot shit" approach to the RP, we take a more investigative approach. Which makes a certain amount of sense since Leon is a cop(well, he was, even if just for a day), and the bulk of the REtards are/were cops as well. Cops don't solve every problem by kicking down the door and shooting people (well, they do in certain neighborhoods, but I digress).

So rather than a direct assault on one of Wesker's bases (which would be foolish, considering that Leon knows that Wesker knows that they would be coming), Leon would have one team go to Savannah to search for any clues about where he might have actually taken Chris. Whatever they find there could lead to raids/surgical strikes on a few of Wesker's other bases (ones he wouldn't expect the REtards to hit), which would lead to more clues and more strikes until Dave is ready for them to find Chris. In essence, instead of blindly charging headfirst into whatever trap Wesker has waiting for them, Leon would rather they go around it.

Also, as another plot, investigating Reno. Leon isn't buying Reno's "I wanna be a REtard!" routine. At all. Up until now he's only voiced his concern to Hunnigan, though he'll ask other people to start investigating Reno, particularly his connection to Midgar. He'll also want people to look into Midgar in general, since Leon knows (from Baofu) that Wesker is interested in something there called "Mako" and that might be the point of connection between Reno and Wesker. But even if it's not, if they can bring a grinding halt to Wesker's Mako supply line (or to construction of the Umbrella/Shinra facility), it's all good.

Anyway, thoughts? Plots to add? Suggestions? Questions?

Edited to Add: redheadednobody (Axel from Kingdom Hearts) would like to get involved in our rp. At the moment, though, I can't think of a way to fit him in off the top of my head. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on that, feel free.

Well if it turns out its going to be Emerald Weapon, everyone is going to need some underwater materia and Knights of the Round combined with W-Materia. We'd have no chance otherwise :D

I was thinking of actually having the Ultimate WEAPON make an appearance first, because it could attack Midgar, and set of the sirens, and what have you. Mass panic? YES.
