Peter Parker is also a brilliant mind and someone who thinks outside the box. He possessed both an Avenger, and SHIELD communicator prior to Apocalypse's appearance. Since then all main communication lines have been broken down. I have given MaiMizzu permission for Tony to "hack" back in and get <em>some</em> communication back up - but it will mostly be like a "Hey, you're alive, we've got to do something." type of thing. Where both parties only get to exchange a small amount of information before what they've hacked into operation also gets caught.<br/><br/>     In-Character communication should always be a struggle (when not in person) in this current setting. Definitely all cell-phones are down. Were someone able to come across an independent satellite phone - they might get a couple of minutes before Apocalypse's  hackers are able to lock that down as well. <br/><br/>     I'd like the Resistance to know each other exist - but not quite to the point where they are formulating coordinated assaults quite yet. Also everyone will be free to travel to the other locations in the near future. I will give the green light for that later (pretty much when it seems to fit with the story-flow and such). It won't be long.<br/><br/>EDIT: Also it has come to my attention via PM that I should clarify that NO ONE is familiar with Apocalypse or his background. His last appearance was around the time of the first World War - so only the characters who have been alive since then (Selene, Wolverine, maybe a couple others) might have heard of him. His name of course has been spread by his forces and in early breaking news reports before communications went down. So while everyone know's <em>who</em> is behind the attacks, they aren't quite familiar with <em>what</em> is behind them. You'll have to uncover it as you link up with other characters throughout the story.</div>
