The Syndicate

I'm Commander Shepherd and this is my favorite game on the Syndicate.

3 more party members and we hit our goal.

I want a cuddly little Grunt plushie.

I think what he meant is; there may be marmots.

Legion is pretty cute, really. As are most of the aliens.

Hey Cbob! Good to see you!

Good to see you too! Looking forward to actually playing with you folks.

Likewise! I hate that I had to replace out of your Christmas game, ended up being a bad time after a week or so since I traveled back home for a couple of weeks.

For those who may be concerned that they're not quite "Syndicate" enough to sign up on the Syndicate side because you're relatively new:

Nonsense! If you've played a game with us before then you're eligible for this in my book. The idea here is to mix cultures anyway. Join at will.

I'm signing up, as my evil masterplan of playing more games here as a Cindy Kate is in full bloom. <^_^>

I think you just mod-slipped that I asked you about this.



+ Thank you! <3

I am less surprised that you have all these .gifs and more surprised that you're able to recall such appropriate examples so quickly.

Dizzy! You're as much a Syndicateer as any of us. Glad to see you aboard.

I just had to google Cindy Kate.

I'm even more confused then I was previously.

I see what you did there.

I had to ask someone what a Cindy Kate was. They called me a nub. (I guess that tells you who I asked for those of you who recognize the dutchie mantra.)

We can be nubs together, as always.

I am also a nub.

Greetings all. My name is DrWilgy and I am most definitely a doctor.

I do believe that healthy minded humans should be exposed to me at least once in their lifetimes, thus a crossover game is fantastic.

We're most likely looking at a 19-player setup here. Ideally we'll have as close to a balanced arrangement of HCR and Syndicate participants as possible. I've expanded the Syndicate sign-ups to 10 players.

Here to add to the HCRealms roster.

I died N1 in that game, but I managed to get one guy from the Syndicate to vote for me. I guess I now have to return the favor by voting for one of them.

I'm still not quite sure how that game ended.

Welcome, TonyStarkPrime!

All endings were the renegade ending.

BTW, I also had to look up nub. I've been on the internet for the majority of my life...I swear it.

As far as I remember it pretty much ended with me throwing a kick-ass party.

colonialbob wrote: As far as I remember it pretty much ended with me throwing a kick-ass party.

That's how it should have ended. And pretty much how it ended in my brain.

I suppose, being the co-mod, I could link some of my stuff in here to give the natives a feel for how I run things... at least my Bioware mafias (I've actually run two, both of which were a lot of fun, to me at least). But I leave that up to the individuals. I'm pretty sure that this game will not be as crazy in comparison. (And more people will know what I'm talking about, so I'll be more vague in my writeups... as opposed to before, where no one knew what was going on no matter how detailed the writeups were...)

I was in the middle of my second playthrough of this series a couple months ago when the snowy weather outside got me in the mood for Skyrim, so I switched to that instead. I'm gonna pick back up with Mass Effect now, I need to brush up before this game starts.

The good news is that Andromeda is so big it's drawing comparisons to Skyrim but with a better story and LAZERRRZ

It's getting annoying that I keep watching the let's plays. ME3 I put myself into a media blackout, this time around I can't get enough of the info that's being dropped.

I know nothing about Mass Effect, I hope that will be ok.

That's quite alright. The setup will be such that it shouldn't matter. Speaking of that:

This will be a semi-open setup, merging the visibility of traditional Syndicate games with the claim-friendly environment of HCR games. By "semi-open", I mean there will be more roles listed than players participating -- you'll know what roles can be in the game, but not what roles are in the game.

Intriguing! That'll be neat.

Yeah, I'm a YUGE believer in roleplaying in mafia games, which really got me into them in the first place. (Don't believe me, just look at my posts when I was Blasto in HCRealms mafia game...)

So we figured this could allow people to have some fun with things.

OK, but since I don't know Mass Effect, I'll just be a half-elven fighter-mage.

Sorry, we're Bioware, we don't believe in half-elves. But you can be an elf arcane warrior.

Salarians the elves?...don't say the Asari are Elves.

We all know who the bad ass Orcs are though.

I want to play with strangers and kill them.

Dude. Asari are definitely the elves.

Long life - check
Superiority complex - check
All other races think they're hawt - check

All players in this game will actually be either elcor or hanar. Roleplay is required.

No.

*saunters up to barkeep* "So, any special jobs around here for adventurous types like me?"

Excited exclamation: yas

Everyone is Prothean. Game over.

Signed up sometime ago, just now posting.

This will be a great game, I'm sure, and mal is a fantastic mod.

Looking forward to experiencing a new mafia culture.

Also, Salarians are gnomes. Asari are elves. Volus are Dwarves. Turians are dragonborn. Batarians are Orcs. And Krogan are goddamn Krogan!

This one approves of this development.

This one wonders if you have a close personal relationship with the Enkindlers?

I know I was just wishing they weren't, I actually like Elves.

I saw a fan theory that I that I want to believe now that the Asari are just an advanced genetic parasite, since they appear to all the species as attractive not just visually also emotionally, but mating does not alter their biology and makes them stronger over time. IE organic borg type stuff.

3 more let's go

This one actually won HCRealms Mass Effect mafia as Blasto.

This one also posted (mostly) in character the entire game as a self-imposed post restriction.
