Modern wars
I would be kind of paranoid of letting it all be unmanned, I mean it's unhackable until someone figures out how to hack it and when that happens then it's just welp... Until a unit can be autonomous I think it's not really worth it going too deep in to unmanned, though that brings another host of potential problems.

The Latest Reading Thread
I can't recommend the books enough, they are to this day my favorite series. As for the Eye of the World, yeah he blatantly copied a lot of stuff in the first book ((one spoiler in the second example) though he might have not copied the works them selves but the source material), but by the end of it he makes the world his own and in book 2 it really takes off. Robert Jordan is an unparalleled world builder (well one of the best at least) and a foreshadower unlike any other, plus to this day I have not read a work by an author that portrays battles and conflicts better them him(or at least give me goosebumps). The culminations in his books is what kept me reading the most, he would build and build and build the story and the payoff he would give you in the end is like no other. Some would say it's like going through mud to get the pearl, but in my case his pearls were worth it every time. The thing about his books is that there really isn't one main character and this in combination with his long descriptions and world building makes for really long books and a really long series. My recommendation is to give it a go until book 2 and see where you stand there, as book 2 is really the benchmark for the rest of the series.

Right to preventive strike
I don't know what story they are using for their exercise, but it's the most likely scenario. Also it's very probable that the support they are talking about is physical, ie. logistic, military, training, weapons, etc. I mean it's a war exercise, does it matter what story/pretext is used in it...

Right to preventive strike
Wait isn't the whole American war on terror(middle east) a preventative strike? You don't need troops to put down an uprising, you just let the Police take care of them. You use the troops to put their backers back to the stone age so it doesn't happen again and to set an example for other countries.

That is the only thing I'm interested in from them... Wouldn't even care about that, but the original works pretty bad on modern PCs.

PoE expansion: The White March part 1
Wait wasn't one of their big pitches no DLC and "expansions", instead we were getting a stand alone proper expansion in the vain of the old IE games...LOL... Man I can't wait until Obsidian pitches another KS, I am going to be laughing my ass off.

E3 2015 AND YOU!
The only thing I'm interested in from Ubisoft is a new Prince of Persia game and when I say game I mean a real game, not mobile/platformer. I'm still holding on to hope that they will revisit it some day, or at least do a remake of it...

The third RPGCodex review - the best, most accurate review yet
Any forum that does that is sh*t in my opinion, even worse that it's a paywall forum...

The third RPGCodex review - the best, most accurate review yet
LOL Sensuki who did you piss off on SomethingAwful to this to your account. ... Also I kind of think you should move on from PoE, I don't know what you did or didn't do, nor do I care, but taking a quick look at the SA and RPGCodex threads, you really are going overboard (or maybe that is just the codex, lol)... Learn to let go man. All that being said I really should give PoE a go, so many "interesting" threads here to enjoy.

E3 2015 AND YOU!
For me: Deus Ex: MD Xcom 2 Dishonored 2 in no particular order. Also I will take a look at the new Mass Effect. (truth be told I didn't mind the ending of me3, but it did kill any replayability of it for me)

It would be funny if they went for a Firefly type of story.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
While I am looking forward to this it's kind of funny watching it, they were so adamant that Corvo's story was over and that if they were to make a sequel it would be with different characters in a different country.
