Holodeck After Action Report

Stardate:20/02/2020

Game: The Division 2

Officers Present: Chris Wilkinson, Heyallo

Mission Outcome:Another impromptu get together to try and grind out the clan Black Tusk Missions project.

I started alone initially with 28 mission runs to do, however after 18 ish, I stopped to help Chris get up to a point where he could join the clan and then help me finish out the rest of our missions because working together made it go a lot quicker and counted double progress.

I'm proud to report that we not only got Chris to level 15, we finished the clan project AND I believe for the first time ever, this week ALL CLAN MEMBERS will receive a Silver level clan cache as a weekly reward for our clan getting to that level!

Oh and the clan is now 2 levels from Max level/Tier Clan!


Thanks to everyone who helped get our clan this far and to this level of reward this week!.

Game: Company of Heroes 2

Officers Present: Bedders

Sammygm

Mission Outcome:Playing as the Soviet Union, British and US Forces respectively
We did a 4 v 4 against Standard AI and won.

An ice map (because Sammy wanted to see what snow looked like) was what we selected, with the map preview implying a nice bridge choke point.
What we got was a frozen river that could easily be crossed. But when barraged with artillery sent our erstwhile opponents to a watery grave!

Speaking of artillery - be wary of Chris's wielding artillery abilities. I believe Sammy likely lost more to so-called "friendly" fire than to the enemy.

Thanks to Sammy and Chris for attending.

Game: Company of Heroes 2

Officers Present: SammyGM
Bedders
Lars2510
Chris Wilkinson

Mission Outcome:We had 2 separate games this evening so I'll look at each one individually

Game 1 - Comp Stomp
Allied Forces
SammyGM and Bedders: US Forces
Lars2510 and Chris Wilkinson: British Forces

This game was quite difficult as the map was split up into 4 areas, with smaller ones which split off from the main two "islands". The allied troops managed to secure most of the main island quickly with Sammy dealing with a harsh firefight on the left flank with Lars on the right.

However the Axis troops broke through over the middle bridge but as by doing this, they allowed Sammy the opportunity to move across the left.

Once he had broken through, Bedders and I were able to push up through the centre with Lars making his move to the right. During the next blizzard the team were able to move into the Axis base where they were destroyed by a combination of US Shermans and British Churchills.

Game 2 - PVP
The second game was the result of wanting to scare people with Sammys faceplate, although it disappear which was a shame. However this was fine as we got into the game itself. Our forces consisted of

SammyGM: US Forces
Bedders, Lars2510 and Chris Wilkinson: British Forces

This was a victory points game so we tried to secure those as quickly as possible, with the Right flank secured very quickly. Lars held this and secured that against the enemy.

SammyGM and I both went left and almost immediately we were under attack from the enemy who'd had the same idea as us. At this stage we tried building defences in that area to hold them off however the Axis forces sent a lot of troops in and throwing a lot of grenades at our troops and buildings.

Bedders supported on both left and right sides by taking out a number of enemy mortar implacements and building defences as well. As the game progressed, we took heavy casualtys to the left flank as it passed between hands constantly, with the entire area pounded until there was almost nothing remaining but dirt.

After a long struggle, the middle was secured for the team which took the enemys points down faster and as the end of the game approached, the Axis forces launched a final assault to try and take each area from us, and succeeded on the left and centre. But by this point it was too late and we'd secured victory for the UFP.

Overall, this event went really well tonight and was a lot of fun for all of us, although we did lament that we couldn't drop nukes at the final point in the ranked game.

Game: The Division 2

Officers Present: Arlu3n, Michael, Silynn, Heyallo

Mission Outcome:Today we got together and got Michael out of NYC (again sillyhead!) and then we got to taking one of the districts for the manhunt!

The first Control point we did was a level 3 and we ended up pulling the two territory control points near it as well. Such an epic fight and we came out on top!

Go us! woo!


anyways its almost 0600 now, so I'm about to head to sleep.


Thank you to Michael, Silynn and Arlu3n (even though he couldn't take part) for coming along!

Stardate:17/03/2020

Game: Stellaris

Officers Present: SammyGM
Jonathan
Lazereth
Bedders
Arlu3n
Chris Wilkinson
lukekillzz
Lars2510

Mission Outcome:As per standard Holodeck protocol the game started a little late, but once we got going it was definitely a great laugh.

At the top of the map, Arlu3n decided that he wanted to annex his neighbours land, so went to war with Lazereth which ended due to a negotiation between the entire group to make sure we didn't lose a player in our first hundred years.

While that was happening, the United Federation of Planets was formed by the Foxian Collective (A Hive mind) and Cydran Network (Machine Race) who then admitted Lazerth into the group once they met him.

The rest of the empires had a relatively quiet time with few wars actually taking place at this early point in the game, however this will be continued for later.

Thanks SammyGM for the game map for display.

Game: SWTOR

Officers Present: Lars2510, Lukekillzz, Michael

Mission Outcome: We set out to accomplish some great things and got very side tracked along the way. Eventually we managed to complete both CZ198 and Oricon (2 play thrus, since both Lars and Luke hadn't played that planet before ). Thanks to those 2 times, they both almost maxed their personal conquest goals .

Here's a picture that we tried to take with Lars and Luke underneath some creature, but it disappeared


Luke dueled both Lars and myself and won both times even though he was a few levels below us . But then my in-game wife, avenged me when he challenged her (Nadia) .

Also while talking about how lizard mounts are vastly superior, Lars needed to tell us that he doesn't ride things, things ride him. Good for you Lars!

Great fun, look forward to next weeks adventures, thank you for joining gentlemen.

Mission Outcome: While Lars was leveling to 20, Lukekillzz, Chugster and Arlu3n was going head to head in a drag race down the motorway skipping any roundabouts in our paths try various cars, Lars reached level 20 and was able to join us in some fun races as a team, doing street races and rally racing and also a Halo showcase event

A big thank you from me for the fun we had and hopefully much more to come!

Stardate:24/03/20

Game: Stellaris

Officers Present: Bedders
Arlu3n
Chris Wilkinson
Lars2510
Lukekillzz

Mission Outcome:We continued on from the last game although Lazereth, SammyGM and Jonathon decided not to continue with us.

So the game started with the Cat Empire taking a chunk of space belonging to Lukekillzz which led him to declare war on them. However this dragged myself and the rest of the federation into the war.

While this went on, I sent my fleet to take out the small empire to the south of my space, eliminating them from the game (and my Foxians purged their entire species as they weren't part of the collective.)

The war between the Cat Empire and Luke had evolved and Arlu3n also declared war on them, with peace being forced on Luke due to war exhaustion.

Bedders quietly grew up his empire of Sneks to encompass as much space as he could as he has a fallen empire just below his space, and on the other side of the map Lars also grew larger as he had no other human players to constrain him.

Overall, the galaxy is shaping up nicely with a single human federation (albeit with a single AI in it now), the Galactic Council has been formed which consists of the Foxian Collective, Sneks and Overlords United.

How this will play out, we have no idea. But next week we'll progress further and you can all learn about the fate of the Galaxy (at least for now)

Mission Outcome: We messed about with some flashpoints. Successfully completed Assault on Tython and Legacy of the Rakata.

Because there are 11 players I was unable to keep track of everyone, so in the order I received them, here are our players' opinions of their empires!
(I will update this as I get replies in)

lukekillzz

Slow start but built up, staying small thats all am gonna say...

Rattlehead

The Space Gypsies have roamed the galaxy for millennia, offering our services as great craftsmen to whomever was willing to pay a satisfactory amount of energy credits. We started out as a branch office of the Space Gypsy Commonwealth, but due to differences in trade policy we had decided to set out on our own. But that was generations ago. Lately, we have reunited with our long-lost brethren and have formed a strong trade agreement that greatly benefits both of our empires.

We have a single goal in mind: to lead the galactic market through fair trade and a working-class oriented economic policy. Our borders are open to all who share this vision. We are not interested in military conflict, but force will be used against anyone who threatens our trading posts. We wish everyone great profits; if you are interested in hosting one of our branch office on your home world, please contact our Marketing Department.

The Sneks once more return! This time housed on a ring world from their former colony, these Authoritarian, Materialist Militants are looking to integrating any AI empire that lays claims to their systems.

Brask

"Some say The Tree brings Life. I say, it IS life. For as long as the Keeper Consciousness has existed I have tended to the Great Tree, nurturing saplings until it became The Great Forest. Now I feel compelled to spread the forest throughout the stars. The Great Forest must grow and I am its vessel.

My efforts led me to meet many other forms of life, most of which confused the Consciousness with ideas of 'individuality' and 'freedom', each drone can think independently from the next. I will need to watch these closely. Some seem receptive to open discussion, and even invited me to join a 'community' to better co-ordinate our shared galaxy. However, one was openly hostile. Luckily, their homeworld was destroyed by an unknown occurrence. Obviously, The Great Forest's roots reach into planes of existence I don't yet understand.

I have secured many worlds, some of which suited propagation of the sacred saplings, others have been terraformed to suit The Great Forest's needs. I have even discovered some strange broken technologies which I dubbed the Ring World and the Gateway. In time, I hope that I may be able to restore these to the benefit of The Great Forest. We have also discovered a strange natural phenomenon that provided a tunnel, rather like the ones made by the quanto-worms of The Great Forest, to another part of the galaxy.

There is much for the Consciousness to do to ensure the ongoing survival of The Great Forest, and I shall ponder my next move carefully...."

Arlu3n

I started off pretty strong with a spawn point with multiple choke points. I was able to take up many stars with many planets including, already having a cap of 7 starports. But direct at the beginning of my expansion, I met myself with 2 Fallen Empires which I tried to make better relation with. After a bit of time, I met an AI Empire. Shortly after, I met Lars and Sammy and after sharing intel, I met everyone else in the game.

Also, be nice to your birds!

Lars2510

Mission Outcome:Tonight's game went smoothly albeit with a few wars mixed into the game to spice things up.

The Galactic Snek Tendrils and Overlords United worked together to take out the Terrapin Empire (Formally controlled by Lukekillzz) who had moved his base of control to the Qell'Nudar Consciousness.

The Cydran Network left the United Federation of Planets once the Qell'Nudar Consciousness was added to the group.

The UFP went to war with both the Valdari Regime (on numerous occasions) and the Hiigara during the this evenings session (Sorry to Arlu3n for constantly dragging him into them ^_^)

Overall, the diplomatic power of the players has increased so we control a nice majority in the senate, and each of the two main federations have both expanded their space significantly this evening.

Here's an up to date map of the galaxy.
