I defend the FF series all the time, but Torment is one of the best stories I've seen in any medium. You are grounded for a week.

Six players have confirmed for this game and selected a country. I'm waiting for the seventh. Hurry up or miss your spot in the game!

Yet his kid is a little short for a stormtrooper.

We check out women together. She'd probably agree with me. When my wife moved in with me, she chastised me for not owning any porn videos.

I'm totally with Volourn on this one.

The Africa supply center is the only new one I believe, which raises the total from 35 to 36. And I think a simple majority is required, and for both 35 and 36 supply centers 18 is the majority.

In the rules listed for this variation 18 is still the total. I think it is because only one supply center is added. The map could be cleared up a bit. Paint only allows me to put text horizantally, and there are no layers or anything. I may take it into Photoshop and redo all the lettering. Imageshack is also showing the image compressed a bit. I may attach a larger version to the thread. Do you like the changes to the map or do you prefer the classic map?

I agree. Games that are more combat intensive should give you full tactical control over your party, while more story-intensive games should have pre-created characters.

Going gold is not the same as being released, or at least that's my understanding of it. They've produced the completed 'gold' version which will be copied, packaged, shipped and sold. We'll be able to buy it in November. They now have two months to work on the first patch. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You are correct, but games don't usually go "gold" a full 6 weeks before release that I know of.

There is a popular and simple mod to give all the merchants 50k to use in any given day.

I've enjoyed both styles with different games.

I have a 250 gig SATA and a 120 gig IDE, and a 80 gig IDE.

I disagree that GTA:3 is better than VC and that GTA is better than GTA:2. Comparing Doom 2 to Doom 3 is almost apples to oranges.

Sorry to hear you are having problems. Welcome to the forums, BTW!

I think that Austria has a much better shot in this game, given that there is more incentive for Italy, Turkey and France to look towards Africa, while Austria also gets an extra buffer zone. The map makes several balance changes, such as adding a few ocean territories.

Ascetics aside, do you like the actual changes to the map, such as adding Croatia?

What that smart Canadian said!

I'm all for it.

The Radeon 9550 is basically a crippled 9600. I wouldn't expect stellar performance out of it.

The same thing happens in Ultima. The guards (and townspeople) will attack you if someone sees you doing something bad, but one could beat down the guards if you have a decent character. The problem with immoral actions is they will actually keep you from beating Ultima IV as the point of the game is to become the Avatar. In Ultima VII, party members will leave you for immorality.

I've had a few bad HDD crashes over the past few years. I sympathize. It was sad seeing my true love (other than my wife) die. Clicking noises are generally bad. You can back-up to DVD, but DVD's only hold a few gigs a piece. I'd go with data and save games. Actual programs you can reinstall. Is the HDD still under warranty?

I am content to use the normal map, but I know Kaftan has been wanting a variant map for a while. I present a minor variation to the main map. This was hard to read, so I colored it and cleaned it up a little bit. People are welcome to try and make it even more legible if they so like. All I have is Paint at the office. Here are the significant map changes: All units start as in the regular game, except Italy has F Rome and Austria has F Zara (then is no province Trieste). a. Trieste is divided into Croatia, a minor province, and Zara the new Austrian supply centre. b. The northern part of St. Petersburg becomes the province Archangel. This eliminates any North Coast/South Coast confusion. c. A new province of Siberia is added, adjoining Arc, Mos and the new province of Persia, which also adjoins Sev, Arm and Syr. d. North Africa is divided into Algeria, a minor province, and Morocco, a new neutral supply centre which touches Alg. WMS and SAO. Units may not move directly between Mor and Spa. e. Ireland and Sicily become passable as minor provinces of England and Italy. All units may move directly between Ireland and Clyde, and Naples and Sicily, using a direct passage facility. This does not affect fleet movement between IRI and MAO, and ION and TYS. f. Three new sea spaces, Bay of Biscay, South Atlantic and Southern Mediterranean are added. Only Spa SC is now accessible from MAO. WMS adjoins both MAO and SAO at the Straits of Gibraltar. Whatever the majority wants as far as the map situation is, we'll go with. So please let me know if you want the standard map or this one. One of the advantages of this map is that Russia is more spread out (which may slow down the Russian juggernaught a bit) and that Austria has a small new buffer against Italy.

We already have 8 interested players. Outstanding. They are: Possible Players: Alanschu Archmonarch Baley Eldar jaguars4ever Kaftan Barlast metadigital Skynet I will contact each of you privately. The first seven players to send me a prefered country list will be in. List the countries in the order you prefer them. Once I have 7 players with country lists sent to me via email I will post a schedule for the first year. Note, use my enderandrew at NOSPAM gmail dot com email address.
