Oh, something about Star Trek :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Again, we (Bethesda Softworks) are just publishing/QA'ing the games. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ya from Bethesda?

They will do a great job, if not so, they would already released something with the name of Fallout,but they didn't. <_< They let the time to make a great game, and they r in contact with most of the original game dev.-s. Not many other dev.-s novadays do that So, as I said already: Give them a chance, if they do a nice Fallout with Oblivion graphs then you realize all, that its not so bad :D

It depends on the ending what we chosen in KOTOR2, nearly all of the NPC allies could have become jedi in LS, and they created a new Jedi Council, so if we take that ending, there could be lots of them :D -
Give Bethesda a chance <_< They can do nice games ) And they don't need to make just RPG-s, Star Trek is good with any concept We don't talk about this again before they release something.It's just speculation.Yes? ^_^

Thanx (w00t) Well thats a good idea :D I will try that I just hope they will think about any other alternative resolving than battle

Not the dying is the problem here, the problem is when they want to play diablo-style in pnp , and that not for just one game :ph34r:

If I'm right now Atari has the rights for BG, true? Any news on a possible BG3?

Try to get a foot on Crete and 'asia minor'(todays Turkey if I'm correct), maybe you lose Athene and your lands there, but you can gain new ones in medditerran and in wars/rebellion citys from Seleukids, gain a foothold on Dacia/later Bulgaria too -

didn't they have feats for Master/Lord that helped influence the party in this way? I think they did (even though you arguably did not need the feats to accomplish this). IMO, you should have to burn slots to even think about changing their alignments....otherwise, it is just too munchkinish and unrealistic. (Basically, more Mira/Hanharr situations would largely accomplish what I am talking about) The right implementation of subtle push/pull politics in areas not related to alignment would, I think, more than compensate for the lack of alignment-based influence. Alignment-based influence is the easy way out. The more nuanced stuff makes for better immersion and actually is a bit harder to implement but well worth it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, you don't understand: the short-time changes of alignmen r all possible couse of this strong connection to the Force/reality -

I think he needs white pants with little red hearts on it :D (not the cartoony hearts, drawings from real ones )

It would be interesting to see what changes happened on Onderon if LS/DS char wanted to open an academy there (and what ruler there is now) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i think that at the begining of the game it should be possible to decide the ruler of onderon and the existece of an academy <{POST_SNAPBACK}> YUP, and all other involved things too, as in KOTOR2 for 1st one :D -

I always thought the Eqytians were easy because you had rebel towns to your west and you overmatched the Selucids on the east. I think the first thing on Egypts to-do-list would be to take care of the Pathians by taking the lone Arabian city (can't remeber the name) and limiting their expansion. But with Egypt, distance to Carthage is your friend and you can spend the first few game years in peace building up for the inevitable clash with the Selucids and Parthians. well like I say below... I'm a very concervative commander so I don't expand as fast as most and generally won't attack until I think I can deal with their entire military coming at me at once. My trouble with the Greeks was not winning battles, it was winning wars. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> the greeks are easy, keep making units in sparta and in thermon (I think) use the spartans to take back what is now greece from the macedonians. Thermon is just there to play backstop against the romans. also if you got really good diplo, try getting the romans to go to war with the macedonians. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Man, no-one uses here Diplomacy to have easier wars ,just me? Let enemies(current or future ones) weaken themelves <_< Let the strongest, and nearest enemy be your ally (for some time), so they could block attack from other empires from their side of border :cool: If ya not Roman, then have some diplomacy with the neares faction of them work for you too(with false infos and money and alliance you can get a civil roman war happen more sooner) Use the norman 'island jumping' tactics in the roman era too(burn down everything, have 2 distant citys to be sure to get on foot after a bad-outcome war) -

I've only had my guys routed once and that was because I had a 2000 man stack that had to contend with 4 others of the sames size. I could have won if I had unlimited ammo for my archers/onagers who ran out during the third wave. The 4th group was allowed to approach my battered Legionaires without coming through a hail of arrows. <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I played egypt, and I was attacked when i had to reinforce my army, so my one unit (10 or so of man) of egyptan horse-bowman (chariot or whats the name) meets 6 units of spearman and one merc.horse archers(greek), what to do, I just runned, they runned too, but we had more horses =P So, after 1-5 min they were exhousted, in the 'runnin time' i had shot down the half of the enemy merc-s and with only 3rd of my man having any arrows at all I had them retreat (they lost forever the merc.-s and 2 spearman units) The funny was how i had routed the first unit what had the enemy fleein started: With no arrows i just had the egyptans turn back and runned trough with them into the enemy, they got the fear, and fleed. Now think about luck&strategy :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Who was that against? Selucids? The Eqyptians have really good military power. I played as the Selucids and defeated them by avoiding the major engagements you just desribed. I broke my armies into smaller 300-400 man groups and scattered them in a territory to block roads and harbors. When larger armies challenged I used heavy Caraphact Cavalry to deal with their archers and phalanx to deal with their chariots. The idea was to wear them out and damage them as much as possible. I'd position on the best ground closest to the edge of the map. Try to break the attack, then retreat. It was a war of attrition and it took years (game terms) but I did win. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If I remember correctly, then the Spartans, not the Seleucids, as I said they attacked my reinforcement of ONE unit of chariots with 6 spearman and one cavalary, but as I shot down more and more of the cav., they just turned back before they could reach me. Yes Egypt is good, expecialy in fast shock movement tactics and archers. Against Seleucids I used the old roman tactic to 'break them and rule them' (hope ya understand this) -
There r actually a lot of Vampires in the timeframe of Masquerade, more hundredthousands of them, so its nothing weird about it, but if a MMORPG would be created from it, then they should also let players 'diablerie' :D

Converting in KOTOR with main char is much easier becouse the main char is something important in the Force (real strong<Revan>; black hole<Exile>), and I suppose something like this will be the 3rd 'hero' too. And I like that -
Uhh, the max time I played a game ,was 20. and THAT was tetris. Second one: C&C (any possible map,side,ending,even the 'mission failed'-s on every map to have to see all of the movies) OH HELL, I JUST MISS KANE SO MUCH
