Quick questions

Not an update, but I have a few things I would like to ask and say.

First, the last chapter is mostly planned out, it will basically be a huge battle between Alex and a couple thousand Zerg, but I would like to know if there is anything anyone would like to happen in the chapter. This includes any powers you can think of that Alex may have gained from everything he has done so far that I have not stated he has.

Do you think Alex should use the drones he can create in the fight, this includes the Disruptor Orbs and the Interceptors, as well as the still unnamed creatures. On that note, can anyone think of something to call those things? The walkers and the humanoid really aren't that easy for me to name, everything I can think of sounds overused or doesn't really fit. If you want him to use them, then how many should he use, it takes time to make them so he couldn't just start spawning them all over the place, there would have to be a limit.

I know that it should take Alex a while to adapt Protoss tech into himself, I didn't do a good job of saying it, but Alex was with the Protoss for quite a few days besides the two he spent telling them everything he had learned about the rebel groups, he spent all that time researching Protoss science and technology, and thinking about how to use it, and then I failed to really show that he did quite a bit of experimenting before he achieved the results he got.

I'm not very good at describing things, either I do to much, or nowhere near enough, the second being what usually happens.

Would it be going to far to create OverMercer? Alex become a parody of the Overmind, he would still have a normal body, normal for him, but create a imitation of the Overmind with a direct link between the two, the OverMercer being an inactive mass of Mercer, while the human shaped Alex is the true being, then if something happens to destroy all of normal Alex's cells, his mind just rides the psionic link back to OverMercer and he creates a new human body from the stored biomass. Does that just seem like going to far, or would it be a good idea? I was going to do it anyway but would like to know if anyone has any objections to the idea.

At the end of the battle, Alex is going to get a Massive upgrade, at that point it should be pretty clear that if Alex were to stick around everyone would be royally screwed, but he will be leaving the sector not long after the battle.

I know that this has been a total stomp from the start, and has only got worse since, but I would like to again point out that, in my defense, it is not that they can't hurt him, it is that none of the factions realize how to really damage him, for a little while there were a few Protoss who knew, but their kinda dead now. Even as strong as he is now, if Alex got nuked it would still hurt, a lot. This was written to use the "Alex becomes insanely powerful in almost no time" thing, rather then try to avoid it and it happen anyway, I can think of ways to keep it from happening, but I wanted to use the flaw rather then fight it.

I failed to even mention Alex "researching" things, but he is doing it, at all times, like a Zerg base, or any Starcraft base, he is working on multiple things at all times, he devotes about 15% of his thought to subconscious research most of the time, while the remaining 85% deals with the world in an active manner. During the battle in the third chapter at least one thing he is working on will be finished, what it is and when it is finished will be obvious, because he will use it almost immediately after it is done. On that note, is there anything you think he should be working on during the battle that could be finished before he reaches the Leviathan?

I will be taking a break of sorts before typing and posting the third chapter, in that time I was thinking of writing about post-game Alex in other settings, if anyone has any suggestions for places Alex could go then feel free to mention them, if I don't know the setting I will check up on it and if I can think of a way to use it then it may be done. If you don't want it to be a stomp then say so, I will be trying to avoid blatant stomps, but in certain settings it would be hard to avoid.

Can anyone think of other forms Alex could have, or other creatures he could create, I have a few thoughts but would like other peoples opinions. If you choose to post any ideas for creatures, please name them, I really suck with names, both for people and things, that's why none of the random humans were given names, besides the fact that they weren't around long.

Technically no, it's not a nuke, but it is related. After it works Alex will be making a weapon form specifically for the power, it's a pretty major thing after all. On the note of overpowered abilities, should Alex start imitating the Mothership, the concept one, not the in-game one. I can think of ways to use those but don't know if I should.

Quick question. Does anyone know where I could find a picture of a crab crossed with a lobster crossed with a scorpion crossed with a octopus crossed with a lizard crossed with a Broodlord crossed with an Overseer with a bit of Carrier and Phoenix thrown in? Maybe a Void Ray tossed in just to even things out a little?

I really thought I had more to ask and say, but I seem to have forgotten most of it. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to read the nonsense that I have posted thus far, and if it wouldn't be to much trouble, if you haven't already, please look at the other things I have posted and if you wouldn't mind review those too.
