The Tulpa War rages on, and in the ongoing dance of death, no one is safe.

The Olympians of Mars are immortal no more, falling one by one at the blood-soaked hands of the mysterious Reine Rouge. New champions arise on Earth and armies of Preta-haunted machines emerge like living nightmares to meet them.

The fires of revolution burn brightly as old allegiances are torn apart. Some fight for hate and vengeance while trampling over the ruins of the past. Others fight for love and redemption, striving for a future that might yet be.

Megan and Kitsune reunite amid the ashes. The final battle for life itself is about to begin.

Fans of the Gundam franchise, the Pacific Rim films, the Nier: Automata and Zone of the Enders video game serieses, or the Heavy Gear and Lancer RPG settings are cordially invited to the climactic conclusion of the Tulpa Trilogy.

As a personal message to anyone on Hexbear reading this, I have been looking forward to completing this trilogy for years, and without spoiling anything, I promise that there is a satisfying conclusion. No story should go without one.

Here are two links about the previous novels of the trilogy if you’re interested but new to the setting:

    If it's anything like the pinned megas you just give a little writeup on the topic (in this case promo copy for your books ig). Then people are free to discuss or just post about random unrelated stuff as is the megathread norm.

    You should totally do it so there's precedent if I ever work up the courage to post my writing here

      How do I do it? Do I just look up the giant list of @s and copy-paste them and say "THIS IS A MEGATHREAD" or is there something I'm missing?

        If you wanted to do a daily megathread, just let Quimby know in the planning thread. You would just post it at the usual time and make the nerd call comment once it's posted.

        I always figured you had to set it up with the site mods, contact them and be like "ey i've got a topic for megathread" but I have no clue to be honest

          That was exactly what I suspected to. If it's too easy, someone could make a megathread about all kinds of weird stuff.

          Don't, by the way. Looking right at you @Dirt_Owl :stalin-point:

        ---

        Copy Content from Here for the footer of the OP. Use the little paper button in the same row as the edit/report buttons to display the markdown formatting for your copy-paste needs. If on mobile you need to switch your browser to desktop mode for it to show up.

        Then you write the 1st comment in the thread, usually with something silly at the top. Then you paste in the markdown of everyone's names from Quimby's template, hit send, and then someone will reply "First!"

        The nerdcall comment triggers admins to wake up and pin the post. Sometimes it takes a little bit but they get there eventually if you post it between 12am and 4am UTC.

          Sounds scary, and it may even be a :silver-legion: or wrecker magnet, but I'll consider it around the time of the official book launch. Thanks for the resources! :order-of-lenin:

            I've literally never had my threads wrecked. I'm sure you'll be fine.

              It's still scary. First megathread and all. Usually I just say "NO U" in them and lurk and read other people.

                Try making one about uh...pizza? Something inconsequential as your first one. Throw a gorbachev joke in there.

                  I think we'll get (more) "I HATE THE ANTICHRIST I HATE THE ANTICHRIST" style response threads if there's more Gorbin' time.
