Significant Events

Reports From The Field

It takes a pillage by NELUG; In the first of two games staged at JumpGate Game Day, Shaun inflicted cruel misfortune on this medieval village. Marauding armies converge on the peaceful hamlet in hopes of finding a hidden superweapon. In a surprise twist, the exhausted combatants discovered that the superweapon could only be controlled by units carrying fried chicken.

Stanford and son and the Tox Uthat - By NELUG, To appease the spacers at JumpGate Day, Wayne staged his battle on a derelict spacecraft far in the future, with cameos from the stars of many NELUG sci-fi battles in years past.

Sanford & Son and the Tox Uthat (The TL6 Game Background Flavah Text):


Salvage is a tough business.
You spend most of your time trolling through other people’s trash and refuse in
search of that one big score. Tales spun at local starports of the team that
stumbled across a cache of secret gold hidden in a derelict’s burnt out reactor
core haunt everyone’s dreams. Sure they’ve been bathed in lethal radiation, but
they’re rich!
If only you could be part of something sweet. Something big. You’re only hope?
Sign on with some of the more “colorful” deep-space salvage teams. That puts you
at the outer rim and where the action is!
Apparently, the “action” includes a lot of cleansing of the refuse-containment
ductwork. Blech!
Then along comes a datachip and your chance to shine. How your captain got it,
is really unimportant (and frankly, better for your health if you don’t ask),
but it tells of the Tox Uthat, a marvelously secret thing that must be
possessed. What, exactly, the Tox Uthat *is* remains somewhat of a mystery. Is
it an animal? A virus? A killer recipe for egg nog? A solar inhibitor?
Stop asking question, maggot! Say, how’s the refuse-inductor work coming?
Regardless, this Tox Uthat has apparently been located on a derelict vessel, the
old Sanford & Son scow, out on the fringes of space; out past the Great Nebula
of Evil Gasses™. You know, the one where all those aliens that eat your face off
live? Well, it seems that said derelict has finally drifted just out of their
territory and that makes it *just* safe enough for you to be dispatched to it
with some reasonable percentage of survival (hey, 0.002% is still a percentage).
You and your team are going to take a shuttle and hustle your buns out there.
The datachip indicated that the Uthat is stored on the bridge and requires two
people to push two separate, but distant buttons at the same time in order to
release it. From the fuzzy images, it appears that you’ll have to dock at the
rear of the ship and make your way forward. You should also note that it’s an
old style cargo ship. They used to employ a transmatter device to pick up cargo.
Sometimes those things can be sort of tricky, so if you stumble across it, you
might watch your step because they apparently never run out of power.
You should probably bring some armament. The “source” of the datachip seemed a
bit shady, if you know what I mean. If there are other interested parties, you
should probably be ready to deal with them.
Oh, and don’t take too long, the derelict is on a collision course with a nearby
sun.


Bubblegum Crisis - By NELUG; Following Nelug's Bubble Gum Crisis battle, Team Villain's notorious leader Evil Mastermind (rumored to be none other than Joe Comeau) has sent out a memo describing the results of the Drastic Urban Meltdown 2003 initiative. The announcement includes illustrated narration from the front line.
