SPECWAR//Group Seven//CIRCUS Team ONI Preliminary Report - 19/03/2558 - Edward Rio, Colonel, CIRCUS, Commanding Officer Not exactly what I had in mind when I asked for permission to establish a SPARTAN fireteam under group seven. Insubordinate rejects, washed-up failures, ne'er-do-wells, walking wounded, and even an actual pirate. I suppose it makes sense- the SPARTAN branch probably got ahold of all the operatives without disciplinary and medical issues years ago. Nonetheless, very disappointing. I ask for soldiers, and instead, I get a bunch of clowns. At least the name fits. ONI Evaluation Report - 28/03/2558 - Edward Rio, Colonel, CIRCUS, Commanding Officer This lot has piqued my curiosity with their… unorthodox training methods. They have repurposed our prototype wargames simulator and the mothballed [GEN 1] MK. 6 MJOLNIR Armor we requisitioned for them into a form of amusement for themselves and their unaugmented comrades assigned to NCM company. This is unexpected, as many of them are experienced veterans from various campaigns, from the Fall of Reach and New Mombasa to Onyx and Requiem and beyond. I'll admit, like the menagerie of men and women that now hang on their every word, I've laughed at their antics on more than one occasion. I find their incessant taunting and immaturity strangely cathartic, even if I cannot help but question whether or not their protracted service has wreaked irreversible harm and havoc upon these poor souls' sanity. ONI After-Action Report - 10/04/2558 - Edward Rio, Colonel, CIRCUS, Commanding Officer I must admit, I had my doubts about this bunch of misfits at first, but they’ve managed to pull together. Their first Op was a resounding success, even if they diverted from the planned extraction coordinates to, quote, “Play another game of Oddball”. I’m requesting permission to recruit additional operatives from the pool of SPARTAN-IV recruits, preferably candidates that fit in with the rest. I’m sure SPARTAN won’t have a problem parting with their worst offerings. In addition, I’ve decided to begin broadcasting the team’s “Training Sessions” to NCM company as a whole- its done wonders for morale. -END OF REPORT- CIRCUS Team is looking for members to join for casual matches and minigames in Halo: Online - the unofficial port of Halo 3 multiplayer to the PC by the Eldewrito team (And eventually the PC Master Chief Collection).

Just trying to re-ignite my creative writing spark at the moment. It's just gotten harder and harder in recent years, and energetic tracks like this do help to rekindle it a little.

I personally don't have a stable income so I couldn't commit to any kind of donation, but it's obvious some people here are committed enough that they would be willing to make either a one-off or a recurring donation, especially if there were some perks for doing so. A permanent Donator award, even if you just give £5 once, should be a minimum.

Prismatic of Endymion DARK / LV 9 / Spellcaster / Fusion / Pendulum / Effect / Pendulum Scale: 9 / ATK: 3300 / DEF: 2100 Pendulum Effect: Each time a Spell card is activated: place 1 Spell Counter on this card when that Spell resolves. You can remove 6 Spell Counters from your field; Special Summon this card from your Pendulum Zone, then select 1 face-up Spellcaster-Type Pendulum monster from your Extra Deck and place it in your Pendulum Zone. You can only use this effect of “Prismatic of Endymion” once per turn. Normal Effect: 3 or more Spellcaster-Type monsters When this card is Fusion Summoned: Place 1 Spell Counter on this card for each Fusion Material used for its Special Summon. Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can remove at least 1 Spell Counter from this card, and if you do, you can look at all Set cards your opponent controls, then destroy a number of cards on your opponent’s field equal to the number of Spell Counters removed from this card. Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this effect’s activation. If this card in a Monster Zone is destroyed: You can place this card in your Pendulum Zone. Creator's Notes: Honestly, not too much thought went into making this. I just wanted to create a monster card for the unknown character featured on Magicalized Fusion, so I did some of my usual splicing work and made a custom artwork for it. The monster effect was inspired by Borreload Dragon, which I had pulled from my box of Duel Power on the same day I started the card's design, mixed in with some elements of Chimeratech and Spell Counters as an attempt to balance. The remainder of the card is ideally designed for Endymion/Mystical Beast decks, ideally summoned by Magicalized Fusion itself, as either a beatstick or a guaranteed way to deal with face downs and other cards. If this card was real, I wouldn't be surprised to see it become Limited or even Forbidden soon after.

Applications are now open. I've also decided to use the Advanced Format, so keep that in mind.

Was anyone else just hoping for this to be a new Tag Force? The Switch just seems the perfect successor platform to revive the series.

6/10. A nice, simple cutout art style, but too much empty space on the right and I cannot work out who its supposed to be. Uhh... female Constantine?

Intro Song: "Fist Bump" cover by Roll for it. Outro Song: "Infinity & Beyond" by Emi Jones, Ft. Silvia Hound Introduction With Sonic defeated, Eggman's army quickly took over. Within six months, all but a few isolated areas in the world were under their control. Despite the overwhelming odds, a rag-tag Resistance formed banding together to continue the fight. But this is not the story you probably know. This is the story of how just one small part of the Resistance came together during that time. How a small, ragtag group of anthropomorphic animals came together, took up arms, and fought their way to keep the last glimmers of hope alive. It all began at the start of the war, in Grand Metropolis... [Prelude] [Rules] [Database] [Application Form] [Accepted Apps]
