CrosshairCollie Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Twice? I remember Vulkanus and the Incursian commander saying it. Lots of other really violent threats threats though Of course, it's not that uncommon of a word for the show really. And they do have a surprising number of on screen deaths for a kids program. Hmm. I'd swear it was more than that. As a side note, I think Rath's bonus Presence to Intimidation should be called 'LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING!'.

Bloodstone Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Another little note on Rath: I massively undersold his leaping ability. He performs two standing leaps of around 120-150' each. Standing leaps are of course HALF the characters total distance, so if I lowball things, he would need around 72m of Leaping. Or 36m if we assume he used NCM to jump up and give Jarret's face a hug, but that's questionable. Ben has a Martial Arts package I'm working on rebuilding, which may make balancing some things a little tricky going forward. I may leave most of it as just an explaination for how he uses his CSL's, but some stuff (like his Martial Flash) can't be done without maneuvers/powers. Sure, he's not as proficient or as fancy as as Gwen, but he's deffintly got more than just a hand attack. He actually does flying kicks in various forms (Swampfire and Spidermonkey) and Rath actually does a jumping spin kick on Boid. So, still a bit torn on which maneuvers I'll give him. Probably going to stay away from ones that buff damage, but we'll see. Oh, another random observation about Rath: I also noticed he doesn't use punches. Instead, he hits people with knifehand chops. Probably a combination nod to pro wrestling... and a good way to prevent him from stabbing everything in sight Also watched Primus tonight. Lots of interesting reveals. We got another appearance by Rath... sort of. Wasn't overly fond of the the way Vilgax was portrayed. And dear lord, Waybig is just ludicrously fricking strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrosshairCollie Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Rath + Azmuth (Azrath?) was just as hilarious as Ben+Rath.

Bloodstone Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) I try not to post outright spoliers too often. This pic hints at some stuff from the end of this season as well as spoiling some of the aliens for next season.... so click at your own risk.

CrosshairCollie Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Iiiiinteresting. I wonder if that's Ben's next season initial playlist ... though there's some redundancy power-wise if there is, since both Ditto and Echo Echo are visible .

Bloodstone Posted January 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Not sure... Ditto and Wildvine weren't mentioned in any of the other spoiler info I've read. Way Big is also drawn in his original series style, which seems odd to me. Having Alien X on the dial is a strange choice as well. So either the artist just picked some aliens for filler or Ben has a HUGE selection of forms this season. I know the names of at least 4 or 5 of his Ben's new aliens. I say 4 or 5 because I'm not 100% sure if one of those names is actually an Omnitrix form or a new villian/NPC. But I can only take an educated guess as to who's who in the picture. You'll also notice the Omnitrix looks different... good reason for that, which ties into the season finale. Another thing to point out is that the comic is due out first week of April. Makes me wonder if the new series is launching that quickly.

palaskar Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Sorry to troll, but shouldn't it be Wrath, not Rath? As in anger? Wrathe was well, angry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodstone Posted March 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) Some quick notes from Above and Beyond: - Chamber of Echos is a really cool name for a power stunt, but I'm not sure if it actually needs a writeup. It's probably just a coordinated attack. Then again, with how much knockback the sonic scream does, maybe add in some kind of TK Grab or Entangle. Helen didn't (couldn't?) run away before sucumbing to the effect... I'll have watch again. - Big Chill's "ice tendrils" were pretty cool. Thinking Indirect Blast or RKA. - Hmmm... Humongosaur can survive in deep space for brief periods of time. - It's official, Ben/Rath has galactic pro wrestling as a martial art! Might have to give him Clinging to represent how well he can climb and his ability to reduce knockback with his claws (though this could just be a special effect of STR or Breakfall). Definitely have to rewatch that scene. - Goop needs an entangle/darkness/sight group flash type power. Don;t think he did anything else new... - Saw some nice stuff from the Plumber's Helpers/Max Force, but where was Cooper!?!?! Looks like Max got his old rank back too. Probably should get around to writing them all up at some point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrosshairCollie Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) but where was Cooper!?!?! According to Mr. McDuffie, Cooper was intentionally excluded from the test by Max because he would have easily figured out it was a test. You know, technopath, computer-laden satellite ... you do the math. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole episode should be up at the CN website right now: http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/ben10af/index.html It's in H.264, so it won't play in Firefox, but works fine in IE.

Bloodstone Posted April 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 Re: Ben 10: Alien Force -Season 3 (6E) It already has been (see signature) Though I've been too swamped this weekend to do anything since the premiere Of course, based on the 46 aliens in the shows opening credits... I think I'm going to need a bigger thread... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
