OH NO RANDOM UNRELATED BLOG POST!: Leviathan first 50 page summary.

The world of Laviathan is set in an alternate reality, the time set in 1914. In this reality, scientific advancements have brought forth the ability to create artificial-hybrid creatures.  With this new discovery comes conflict amongst the people. Those that support the creation of artificial beast, the "Darwinist", and the people that disapprove of the creation of artificial beast and support mechanical advancements, the "Clankers".

The story takes a different approch than most, rather than mainly following a single, main character, the point of view alternates between two different characters on the two different sides of the upcoming war. at first we follow the prince of the Hungarian Empire, Aleksander. Through his fathers side, Alek would be in line to inherit the crown if his grandfather were to expire, but because of an "arguement" between the grandfather and his father, Alek was denied the right to the crown. This all happens some time before the story begins. We begin on the night when Alek's mother and father had gone away on business, leaving the young prince alone in the house with the servants. This is when Alek's pilot instructor, Klopp, and his fencing instructor Volger, come into his room, telling him to pack his things for a "night lesson". This turns out to be false however, as Alek soon discovers that they are in fact escaping the empire, under orders of Alek's father, whom we learn to have been assassinated the night prior, along with Alek's mother.

The story then jumps from the young, on the run prince to a young Deryn Sharp, a young lass readying for a test to join the British air-force. The catch to this is, however, is that women are normally not allowed to join the military and thus she must disguise herself as a boy in order to take the test and to stay in the Air Force. Once at the testing ground, her ruse holds strong and the tests go smoothly, that is until during a test flight, a storm hits blowing her and the artificial air-beast she rode up are blown away from the testing grounds and detach from the safety rope.

Does things work out for Deryn, or does she end up a splatter on the ground after the storm? And what of the Prince Alek, when we last left him, he was on the run from a giant robot spider-ship-thing, what of him? Gotta keep reading to find out.

Introductions, Aren't They Fun?

Intros, intros. Oh they are a hard task to do, mostly due to the fear of messing up, saying something stupid or going off on a tangent. Which I seem to be doing right now, back to topic.

I am Ronald Laguinlin, but prefer to be called by the user handle, jintama or NytroNinja. No real names, I leave real names out the door and in the imaginary moat with just as imaginary sharkodiles (crocodiles + sharks = awesome moat fillers).

In this blog, I hope to fill whoever is reading this in on any mobile game I have excessive knowledge of, which will mostly be from the apple store due to the fact I am too cheap to go out and get some games on mobile consoles. There are more reasons than penny pinching involved but I wish not to go into those now. Maybe next blog post. If I want to. You can't make me. Tangent. Back to topic.

So in this blog I will be filling you in on mobile games that I have played before, give you a little summary of what to expect in the game. And, if I've played it long enough, some tips and tricks I've picked up while playing. Sometimes some spoilers will be put in, but just for you faint of heart I'll put them in white text. That way those that want to read it can just scan the page and see the text. This will also be how I hide some fun messages on the pages, so keep an eye out for them, try to be funny with them when I can.

That's about it for the introduction to this little blog of mine, so if you got any questions about it, leave them in the comments. I'll be sure to check them when I get a chance, and if I'm feeling really nice, I'll even respond to them. Bye for now.


:Oh! Almost forgot:

Battle Nations
This is a game I will cover a lot, just cause of how much I love it and how much there is to talk about in it.

If you face an enemy formation like this, and think you can take it with regular vehicle units like me.
