Fish Of Doom

hehehehehe. nice. true, as well, much as many fitness experts will try to make you believe that it's impossible to work out like that alternatively, you could simply hit the gym every day (and eventually, BOTH daily gym going AND manual labor :D)

wouldn't SHIVs be a good idea for when you have max level troops, then? both for using them to replace them when they're injured, or in case you don't need to worry about xp gain anymore because all your current guys are max level (which i'm guessing would be pretty rare given the attrition rate, barring losing all the others)

need any help? i'm native-level in both languages, so feel free to shoot me a PM if you get stuck or need any proof-reading.

So, what do you guys do for fitness, if anything? I lift weights and train martial arts, mostly, although I've been known to sprint randomly when bored of walking, and I trained parkour for a bit. So, yeah, fitness thread. Share methods, articles, etc, discuss their merits, ask questions, post motivational stuff, the works. Also, any of you guys active on fitocracy?

i hate mummies. I like Turtles. i like trains.

nearly catastrophically failed at making scrambled eggs, but persevered and succeeded!

SCIENCE!

might i ask about what you're writing? One is a story about a Halfing Paladin, followed by a critical re-examination of the previous story suggesting that it is actually a popular myth combining several stories and exaggerations. Another is a story about an otherwise insignificant military officer with a backstabbing addiction. Or maybe he just hates both the people he was hired to spy on and the people he was hired to spy for. Today I'm thinking I'll write about fantasy thieves. I'm thinking a thief with a conscience. In which he steals from a little old lady, feels really bad about it, returns it, and begs to be jailed. interesting. also, what hurlshot said.

I can always do with more cheese, always. no such thing as too much cheese.

cheese ftw. need to buy some more, now that i think about it.

i hate mummies.

drank milk, went to the bank, drank more milk, went to the gym, ate meat. i <3 my bowl of meat.

speaking of blizz...

I remember reading those in graphic novel form back in the 80'es (translated from the original French). Never know they made a video game for them. it's a simple but pretty neat strategy game. they tried to make an MMORPG called winds of war as well, but i dunno what came out of that one.

i am WAY too fond of the soundtrack to black moon chronicles for my own good. example: meshes quite well with other games as well. i also love this track from dune 1: as well as most of the music from PS:T (particularly deionarra's theme) and the main theme from BG2.

currently on X-COM, and planning to make a new playthrough in PS:T sometime soon.

yup, torment FTW also i second that if you get NWN, go for the expansions. the second one in particular (hordes of the underdark) i'd put almost at PS:T's level. vampire bloodlines is pretty sweet as well.

nvm, i'm dumb. technically, the alloy cannon is a mag accelerator, iirc. albeit in the form of a shotgun.

re: kinetic weapons: magnetic accelerators (coil/gauss guns and rail guns) would be cool, and since plasma tech is already based on magnetic containment of superheated matter, might be a logical step to take. also, while the "gauss" weaponry from TFTD wasn't actually "gauss" weaponry (ie coilguns), the name is there to use, particularly seeing as some people over at the 2k forums were theorizing that the DLC stuff is TFTD-based. re: free-aiming: it might be doable via mods IF it's possible to switch the rocket aiming mechanism over to the rifles, pistols and shotties while reducing the blast radius so that there's no AOE (maybe with a minimal, low-damage AOE for heavy plasma due to the heat, coupled with a similar boost for the heavy laser to compensate? might prove interesting).

gas stations are no fun anymore now that guns aren't free-aimed

i like heavies once they get that perk that lets them shoot twice if they haven't moved (or shoot and reload, or shoot and fire a rocket, etc). supports i use as medics, and general backup when needed (usually sandwiched between my assaults and my heavy and sniper so they can hopefully help either).
