Novus War Journal: April 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 25, 2006. Outnumbered, Outgunned, but not Outfought: the April 23 and 24, 9 pm CWs. I've been going to CWs for quite sometime now, as early as when Rianos "turned 25" back in January or February. I've been in exciting ones, and boring ones. I've seen us win, I've seen us lose. But few CW experiences compare with the ones of the last two nights. In both the 23 and 24 April, 9 pm, CWs, there were. Our Archon was not present. The enemy Archons were present. We were badly outnumbered. Squad of...

Novus War Journal: July 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 18, 2006. Expert Holy, first upgrade, and why I still stay in Nexus. Actually, this is a long-delayed post. See, I got my Expert tier of Holy spells about. two weeks ago? Something like that. Axelle and I were doing a buff grind when, in the middle of the conversation (I mean, what else. Can one do while buff-grinding? I suddenly notice my already-bought Expert Holy Force Reavers lose the red, "no-use" color. You can imagine my elation. High-level Accretians by spamming Cure. But a Mage wit...

Novus War Journal: June 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 29, 2006. Brukbak Accretians, Ripcord and Post-Gu4 Anti-raid. Every gaming community develops certain. quirks that become a trademark of that community. In-game language, the terms and concepts unique to a game, is usually the first sign of a developing gaming community. Similar to IRL communties, the lingua franca. Is essentially a homosexual, and is (kind of) derogatory. You just have. To see the Cora, and go through their boards, and. No pun definitely intended! Film, Brokeback Mountain.

Novus War Journal: March 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 17, 2006. Outposts and other fortifications. This is another thing that came to my mind one time while dwelling on RF. Currently, each race has several major facilities outside of its HQ. Each facility is part of a map area, and is the dominating feature of such. Unlike the HQ map areas, anywhere on the map outside of these facilities is a "free-for-all" zone and is usually the site for raids. For us Bellato, these are (usually) the Solus and Anacade Settlement maps. Outposts can also serve...

Novus War Journal: May 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 30, 2006. The end of an era: the retirement of papaSPY007. I am hitting myself repeatedly over the head right now (well, at least since yesterday). Last Sunday, I was thinking of playing RF. But since I was keeping expenses to a minimum - there's three days to payday, after all, and my funds were down last Sunday - I decided to just stay at the house and catch up with my reading. And, always,. There are reminders why I am a psion in the first place. Many reportedly asked for a KS because the...

Novus War Journal: October 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 06, 2006. The second "milestone" level in RF (not counting 25, of course). Actually, I should have acheived this level a few days before the second Act of the Implements of War storyline. But, several IRL and IG things got in the way, so I was still a simple Mage when IoW Act 2 came and went. Force Impact is still something I'm testing - a Force-type attack, but elementally nuetral, so none of the Resistance values supposedly apply - while Deadly Staff appears so-and-so right now. Posted ...

Novus War Journal: September 2006
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 22, 2006. Thoughts on the eve of Impelements of War Act II. Tomorrow, ECO goes on its first major official mission, and its a tall order: the defense of Solus itself against BOTH the Accretian Imperial Legions and the Cora Holy Army. There have been many discussions in the guild about how to do it, and Ryu and I believe that what was initially thought of was still the best option. Even my Training tells me that the doable. Be an operation involving the whole race. We need those lowbies ...

Novus War Journal: March 2007
http://novuswarjournal.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 19, 2007. On leave from the battlefields of Novus. I've been playing RF since. November or December '05, at least. Prior to that, I've been diligently MMORPG-ing since the craze hit the Philippines when Ragnarok Online first arrived here about two years or so before RF. I remember those evenings when I would rush to a shop because it was 8:00 pm and the Federal Army needed all its troops for the 9 pm CW. Heck, I remember staying at E-jim until 3 in the friggin' morning. When I spend fewer t...
