As Prelates jump to the Prelate team, I would like to see some of the remainders of those other teams consider joining S.H.I.E.L.D. with Nick Fury, Spiderman, and myself. I'm thinking that if we had two more members, that five of us could use the team benefit and maybe take down the sentinels as a group (or maybe I'm mistaken that there is no benefit for acting as a team).

I must have missed something here, sorry if I'm having trouble keeping on top of all this. But does the idea of the Prelates joining the same team worry anyone else?

You are insightful Richards. I formulated a plan last night to remove Galactus from the game. Unfortunately, the convergence of a few events precipitated this measure. I have a plan at this point and I believe that even though I will require the aid of another (and possibly one more after I remove Galactus) the end result will be one mission accomplished and a cleared player (myself). Perhaps I overstep my role, but if you follow my lead I will only need a few days to remove a threat to all of us and will only require few resources to do so. |

Charles, bear with me on this because I don't know a great deal about the powers of Emma Frost, Jean Grey, or yourself, except as an observer, and by your reputation as mighty telepaths. My opinion, though, is that none of the three of you are likely to be well suited for stopping Galactus. Barring Jean harnessing the Pheonix Force, of course, if that is something she is currently able to do. And as mutants, I know that you have all had run-ins with the Sentinels for decades, however my belief is that we have enough brute-strength types among us that we can throw into this mission. In finding the subversives among us, however, I would surmise that you three would reign supreme with your particular talents. Would you agree that it might be best for those with the faculties for it, stay behind and use their abilities to seek enemies?

Mimic - No offense, but I'm not clearing you if you kill Galactus (nor would I expect to be cleared should I do the same).
Goodies and baddies alike need him gone. |

The other thing is that I believe Jean Grey will be essential to the Prelate team. She should know why.

Yes. Not only as was pointed out, that Mimic "jumped the gun" by asking Eric to join, but that it is indeed breaking apart the chemistry of existing teams. It would also be quite easy for one traitor in the Prelate team (if another exists) to drive an agenda and convince other Prelates that they should share their plans to give the rebellion advance notice of our strengths and weaknesses, and potentially even cripple important servants of Apocalypse. Upon further reading about this proposed Prelate-team, it concerns me greatly. |

Doom agrees that Kang at least should focus on ridding us of Galactus if indeed he has that power. If he fails to have done so after the time given then we will know who to target. Mimic's power sounds less useful and perhaps should be held us a backup.
In the meantime our best bet for delaying Galactus is to rid ourselves ofa traitor, as I understand it. Doom is unsure how our attacks on the planet eater affect this, but I know that each day a traitor is destroyed Galactus is held at bay. If Kang may destroy Galactus, and our lynches may delay him, it would seem that we should put most of our effort into this Sentinel mission, while not ignoring Galactus entirely. Are there any others who have a power more useful than these missions? Doom wishes to know. |

I was hestitant on it yes. But if this grouping helps us aid in Galactus-killing efforts, I think the reward outweighs the risk. |

I believe that those who would be able to aid us in clearing members should be focusing on that task rather than volunteering on missions that may preclude that activity.
I request (not order) that either Vision or someone else with the knowledge or time suggest mission lineups keeping the following in mind: Sentinel mission should have members that can be effective against machinery. Brute force would also be a benefit I would think, as well as fluidity of action. Galactus mission should have members that can operate on a cosmic level. If I am mistaken in the necessities of these missions, please enlighten. |

I would guarantee that I would be cleared. I can't say why now, but you'll find out after it is over. That being said, I think that I have enough inherent defensive abilities to ward off attacks while I'm conserving energy so it may be more prudent for me to take on Galactus than you, especially since we're discussing this in the open. |

I think Vision that you would be correct in assuming that. I also hope that Jean and Eric consider carefully the motivations of Mimic in the creation of this Prelate team, and the cohesion and trust that the Brotherhood was beginning to develop, before she decides on a course of action.
Without revealing detail - I believe Jean to be good. I would place her on a level above Eric at this time, as the most cleared of us (apart from Apocalypse). This is because of something that Jean told me about herself. As such, I am naturally resistant to see her leave my side, when I know that at least I am good, and join a team where there might be potential evil waiting to attempt to subvert her or destroy her. |

For those who question me openly, this would be a very bold play to make so early in the game. Either I haven't played before (or in a while) and I don't know what I'm doing or I'm a very stupid traitor.

Doom - I've stated before and I'll state it again. Putting all the eggs in my basket would be foolish. Basically I have to work on an effort to maniuplate time so large so as to send Galactus, big as he is into a whole other timeline. My guesstimate is 3-4 days depending on the energy I can devote to it. |

Understood. My main point is, if the write-up is akin to "MIMIC KILLS GALACTUS" I'll cheer loudly, but not clear you. I'm presuming it's more than that and if so, let's work on it. I think if both of us (and possibly anyone else) starts putting in efforts to begin these plans to refute Galactus we should at some point become successful. In the meantime I support the idea that we attempt to continue to delay him. |

At the time, the Prelate only team would aid in staving off Galactus as well as root out the traitors. At this point, it would simply be useful to root out traitors. I cannot tell you any more than that at this point...although at this rate, you may find out anyhow later today. |

Maybe I'm confused here. Although a traitor would be able to influence a whole team with words, maybe I made a huge assumption that a traitor would not have a power to affect an entire team. If that's the case, then certainly all of the Prelates should not join.
Regardless, I think it would be useful if most of the Prelates joined and perhaps the Silver Surfer or the as-yet-unnamed Fifth Prelate stayed off. However, Jean's powers would be essential to this team. |

In response to Silver Surfer's request. These suggestions are based on: my impression of each member's power level, stated goals/abilities, and two that I left off for obvious reasons.
Galactus, Sentinels, Finding Traitors 1. Nightcrawler 2. Emma Frost 3. Ghost Rider 4. Hulk 5. Apocalypse (head honcho) 6. Silver Surfer (1st Prelate) 7. Colossus 8. Jean Grey (5th Prelate, promoted to 4th Prelate to start Day 2) 9. Professor X 10. Mr. Fantastic 11. Iron Fist 12. Mimic (2nd Prelate) 13. Henry Pym 14. Vision 15. Kang the Conqueror (3rd Prelate) 16. Beast 17. Dr. Doom 18. Cable 19. Firebird 21. Quicksilver 22. Aardwolf 23. Nick Fury 25. Spider Man 26. Magneto 27. Punisher 28. Human Torch 29. Gambit 30. Scarlet Witch 31. Silver Samurai I hope this is helpful. It looks like overkill on the Sentinel front, but i wouldn't expect everyone to check in before deadline anyway.

I have known you since you were but a small child, I will not bow and scrape my head to the floor for you, or indeed for anyone. Indeed, insinuating that I should do so is naught but a sign of weakness. You should know better. I will question anyone, even Apocalypse himself, because it is in the free-flow of thoughts, information, and yes, opinions, that we have the greatest chance to defeat the rebels, and Galactacus. If that angers you, well then I'm sorry that your ego has consumed you. But I will not apologize, and I will not stop questioning. And if that means you will send others after me to do your dirty-work, well then so be it. |

Thank you. Of these, Iron Fist and Human Torch are damaged if I recall and should not be on missions today as a result. I will suggest the following rosters: Galactus: Silver Surfer, Hulk, Mr. Fantastic, Henry Pym and Magneto. Mimic and Kang can proceed with their Galactus-stopping endeavors for the day. Sentinels: Firebird, Vision, Colossus, Beast, Cable, Aardwolf, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. Thoughts? |
