Okay, fair enough. I had Anevia (who has tactical and military experience) suggest they would hit their command centre as far away from the surface as possible. I didn't want to come straight and have her say, "I think we need to clear out the lower levels" since in some PbP's I've had I would have immediately be accused of trying to railroad and send the plot just in the direction I think it should take. I don't, nor do I want to have to deal with anyone thinking that. Likewise, if I write that a PC has a hunch, in the past I've had people say that's not okay, my character wouldn't do that, stop trying to take over my character.<br/><br/>So that raises the question. Do you guys want me to be blunt with the hints for the sake of story progression? I'm okay with it, as long as you are.
