Earth has one of those bad days

[Renewed_Valour1]

We will assume this is a version of Earth not too different from our own at present. The current situations are unfolding around that Earth.

1) Darth Maul has landed on Earth after his ship wandered into a wormhole and was nearly destroyed. He has landed near Sydney Australia to make some minor repress and setup a base of operations there. He currently is trying to find and recruit in individuals who have an affinity for the dark side of the Force with the intention of taking over Australia and the South Pacific The entire Earth may make it onto his schedule given enough time.

2) Khan has turned up on the India Subcontinent and taken control of India. He is currently working with some mysterious individual that no one knows other than by his name Thrawn. They seem to have ambitions for taking over China and then working on the rest of Asia.

3) Gwendolyn Ingolfsson with 2 allies has arrived by wormhole in Argentine and found an Earth ripe for context. She's setting out to build herself a power base for operations and eventually to signal her people for the conquest of Earth.

4) Dracula and Lestat are at work together in Europe. The two have decided that vampires have taken a backseat to humanity for too long and that must change. They've organized a powerful alliance of the world's vampires and gathered them in Europe with the intention of turning a larger percentage of the world's population into bloodsuckers. They are also setting up operations in Canada .

5) The Mummy has returned once again with the intention of restoring Egypt as a dominant world power and ruling the world. He has stolen the entire captured collection of spirits that the Ghostbusters have detained.

6) Several shiploads of Xenomorphs have landed in South Africa and Brazil. They are quickly spreading in their areas unchecked without the outside world knowing of their presence yet.

Allies:
An omnipotent being however has taken some pity upon Earth and placed a group of people and beings in place to try to counter these forces.

1) Kosh has turned up on Earth in an advisory role. He can not aid the allies other than giving them Kosh like hints about what the other side is up to. He can appear anywhere at any given time and can track the allied team at all times. However if he intervenes in any other way or gives out too much information the things that get done to him would make the Culture squirm. He can also aid in gathering the allied team together in his mysterious way.

2) Ash J. Williams after completing all his adventures has settled down to a quite existence only to be attacked by several vampires, which he proceeds to chop into little pieces. Deciding that the Earth is once more in peril he sets out to find the source of the problem.

3) The Ghostbusters are still working in NYC but are alarmed when their entire collection of captured spirits mysteriously escapes and heads away in an easterly direction. They are even more surprised by what slings and walks into their station next.

4) Spiderman and Obi-Wan has turned up in NYC at the Ghostbusters after being brought there by the aforementioned omnipotent.

2) The Andromeda has turned up with some unusual crew additions. Onboard her is the T-800 Arnold and Kenneth Lafarge. The Andromeda may not carry out any orbital bombardments or other actions from space against the Earth besides acting as a command post and deploying Planetfall warfare equipment.

6) Indiana Jones* and his father who have been preserved by the Holy Grail and the US government has stepped forward to contact him for aid. Kosh also contacts him with the allied team and hints that there are records of artifacts that could cancel out the Force or aid against the Mummy scattered around the planet.

7) Jack Ryan is the President of the United States and is being kept updated on the situation. Rainbow is established and operating under the command of John Clark. In addition 6 EB-52s have turned up after being mysteriously delivered by the omnipotent.

The evil side may work together as long as it furthers their ultimate goals. In a similar method the allied side can play the other side off one another.

So who is left standing?

Me, within ramparts forged of enemy dead.

That`s just.......silly.

He won't have any trouble finding dark side inclined people - the entire Australian Liberal Party would HAVE to fall under that catergory...

But first he'd have to prybar Little John from Shrubs dick.

World Domination in the end by Thrawn and Kahn

Nothing can defeat Imothep (The Mummy) IIRC. He had his arm chopped off and he picked it up and put it back on. He has been shot MANY times and that didn't kill him. He can control both water and wind, can release swarms of bees that will infect people into doing his will, etc...

Certain things in storage might do the trick....

Storage? As far as we can see, Imohtep is invincible and has the most powers compared to the ghosts in NYC. He can take control of almost anyone it seems and can do just about anything.

[spongyblue]

I think it would be funny as hell to see Ass against Imhotep. I could care less who wins or not, I just wanna see those two duke it out.

"Hey beef jerky boy, your gonna go Boom!"

[Renewed_Valour1]

Storage?

So much for subtle hints like first adding Indiana Jones and then suggesting items in storage…

He can take control of almost anyone it seems and can do just about anything.

IIRC he never took control of anyone whom wasn't a native Egyptian. The foreigners seemed just fine in the first movie; even then the society who was working against him were fine. I would have to say that his powers are limited in that way.

The only people who got taken over were the ones who got bit by the bees.

[RayCav of ASVS]

Who's left standing?

Me, because I'm the only one whose resistant to the stupidity of such retarded situations.

Seriously, it's stupid to have Rommie arbitrarily holding herself back. I'd have her blast the hell out of Earth, whether for my own personal ends or just to get rid of the baddies (and the goodies, too)

And of course I won't have Rommie holding back sexually either

And is this Gwendolen whatshername cute?

[Captain Cyran]

Lets see...for bad guys...Kahn and Thrawn get turned by LeStat and Dracula, Thrawn and Kahn proceed to beat both of them mercilessly and take over Europe and Asia. They then enlist Maul to help them in exchange for him to get Australia to own as they turn against Spidey, Obi, and in General the U.S. and Canada. Maul sets off to kill the mummy, finds the book after getting a hint from Thrawn and kills the poor sap. I don't know who Gwendolyn is so... The Xenomorphs are probably dealt with by the good guys. But to make a long story short I'm gonna give this one to Thrawn and Kahn with Maul owning Australia until killed by Thrawn and Kahn.

[Renewed_Valour1]

[quote="RayCav of ASVS"And is this Gwendolen whatshername cute? [/quote]

Gwen is a Draka. A genetically engineered superhuman that would make Khan or a Nietzschean look as evolved as pond scum. As for technolgy her antiquated pistol was able to shatter a Bradley. If she can build the equipment to signal home; I doubt whether everyone working together could stop a Draka invasion.

[willburns84]

Yes, the ultra genetically, biologically, and cybernetically (?) augmented Draka are just stupidly powerful / potent etc. I believe there's a scene from "Drakon" where Gwen takes out a SWAT team or equivalent highly trained, well equipped military / para-military force single-handedly.

She runs at leopardlike speed, unbelievable agility, she can regenerate limbs, hell, her skin can stop a lot of small arms fire. There's been some debate on the SM Stirling mailing list about what would really stop her. Short of decapitation (hello Maul!) or an anti-tank rocket to her torso (or some equivalent), she'll get away. She's also quite strong from my understanding - how strong, I really can't say.

She also emits engineered pheromones that make everyone around her who isn't an augmented freak like she is, bow and scrape and *obey* her whim.

And once "her people" come through a gate en mass... It's over. Their battlesuits are stronger / worse than even 40K personal armor from what I understand also...

Okay, rant over.

[RayCav of ASVS]

Hmmm, rocket to the troso, eh? Isn't that where all the femmie parts are located?

[Evil Sadistic Bastard]

Bah. I nice dose of napalm should set her right.

[Renewed_Valour1]

Bah. I nice dose of napalm should set her right.

You have to find her first. Unlike many of the others Gwen is very discrete in her actions.

[HemlockGrey]

Fine, then. Trace her to whatever city she's staying in.

Then let fly the ICBMs.

[Renewed_Valour1]

Fine, then. Trace her to whatever city she's staying in.
Then let fly the ICBMs.

You'll be lucky to know what continent Gwen is on much less what city. Her tactics rather than amassing a large army and generally a huge footprint to track her by are less conventional compared to the others. More likely she'll take over or at least manipulate a large corporation and thus acquire the materials to signal back.

"One of those bad days" is an understatement. This is more a major nightmare.

But hey, for shits and giggles, let's throw in Cthulhu and the other Elders Gods. That should really screw up the Earth's bad day.

I can't help but notice how people have totally ignored my post

From the first movie I understood it that the "infecting" of people only works on hebrews (?) because they originally were slaves to the egyptians, or something like that (can't remember the quote), but I haven't seen the 2nd movie and wouldn't consider the cartoon a canon source
