Vocelli Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) This is seventh game. I am the New Moderator for Week 7 and will continue with my game plan unless someone else wishes to take over. GALAXIAN Welcome aboard the missile laser base. I'm Commander Champion, your training instructor. These laser bases are used to protect our Universe from alien attack. Each laser base carries missiles which you'll launch from your control panel. In your first training mission, you'll be battling an age-old threat, the fleet, which has thrived on war and terrorism for centuries. Together, we must destroy these warmongers to maintain peace and tranquility over the Universe. Before we go into action, let's talk about battle tactics. The fleet always flys in formation. As one ship descends from the extreme right or extreme left it drops deadly bombs and then returns to original position. The leaders, Flagships, are usually flanked by protective Escorts. The best way to get them is to first destroy the Escorts, then go after the Flags.

Name: Browser Creature: Turtle Dragon. Game: Princess Rescue Liduaro.... I cannot find a Koopa or Bowser in my book of Mythology. Sorry man. My family took a vote and said no. Try again. These are not mythical creatures you have captured. Keep looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try again. These are not mythical creatures you have captured. Keep looking. Ok! No problem. Maybe I'll put oyamafamily's avatar. I always wanted to know what is that? I'll put here another creature! So if Browser doesn't qualify as a dragon, then I'll go with Dragonfire's Dragon: Name: Cuca Creature: Dragon Game: Dragonfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 How's the weather, 'Teach? Did you get the brunt of the storm yet? Seriously, though, it's calmed down in my area. There are thousands without power here, but we're lucky to still have it. Still have some rain and high winds to deal with through the night, but I think we're gonna pull through just fine. Thanks for asking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) Damn someone already got No Escape. Okay then, how about, the... GREMLIN. Though technically a modern myth, it is a myth nonetheless. It was derived from older beliefs about creatures such as brownies, faeries, and the like. Of course, this is from the game Gremlins. Let's just name one of these guys Buggaboo. Edited October 30, 2012 by Stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrabbler15 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 It's the rise of the mythical Phoenix in flight with a flock of its friends. Let's call the ring leader, at the bottom of the screen, Phredd. I will state the obvious to make it official. This is from the Atari 2600 game Phoenix. , 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
