Huzzah. Hope it's not just you. I know the Ultramarines get fluff love, but now they're at Primarch level ? I was about to say 'The Emperor Provides', but it is an action game There is so much fluff to love, yet they chose the poster guys (again). Is the entire gaming world filled with munchkins with inferiority issues?!? Hey Relic, how about a nice roleplaying game some day? There is that Fire Warrior game. Yeah, I rememeber that one. I even tried it. Thats why I gave WH40K computer games a wide berth ever since.

It should save every time you land on a new planet or station. Unless you disabled that option. Muahaha... it had a "Turnwise Save" option (which defaults to 'Never') I just needed to use the scrollbar on the option screen to get down there and see it. Thanks

Maybe not exactly adventure/quest material, but stuff that makes for nice tavern gossip in a harbour town, rumours of ghost ships (with zombie crew and all), a plague ship sailing into the harbour, having to avoid press gangs recruiting "volunteers" for the next expedition to Lustria (unlike the 17 previous lost expeditions, the investors are convinced this one is destined to return a fortune), mutineers, the threat of Barbarossas fleet, save the prostitute, the beer has been sabotaged/gone bad, whatever

No matter what I originally plan to do in BG2, I always wind up with Minsc, Jaheira, Viconia, Nalia and Imoen. Unless I'm cheesing out with a sorcerer. Guess Vicky just limits options too much, and can't play without her. *longing sigh* I think I've completed BG2 with most characters except 2 (Cernd and Jan). Both because their "personalities" get on my nerves. BG2TOB is a different matter, I think I've only ever completed it twice. It suffers from the same problem as MotB, highlevel cheese just isn't fun. Fun usually stops somewhere around level 15 (give or take a few levels). Still playing Space Ranger 2. Getting sort of decent at it. Still dies regularly and wonder why I keep forgetting that there is no autosave

Well warpstone is in itself highly explosive. Think RDX plus other explosives. Generally speaking, Skaven constructs and guns are powered by warpstone, but it is prohibitively expensive in slaves and favours, so black powder may be an acceptable alternative for Clan Eshin operatives doing field work (i.e. work with what you've got). Of course, it could trigger tunnel fighting scenarios that would make M.C. weep tears of joy. They are also known to bribe humans as a means to an end, usually playing political factions against each other. I don't know much about Estalia, since it isn't covered in either the wargame or the usual fluff (paperback novels), but if it is anything like The Empire, there will be layers inside layers of plots, pitting the interest of The Underempire versus various Chaos cults, vying for power and the means to bring down the human establishment.

for spicing up your warehouse quest a bit, what about a Clan Eshin agent, Squeek the Fox (Guy Fawkes just doesn't sound right for a Skaven) trying to blow up the Magrittan council hall with stolen barrels of gunpowder? As you said, the outcome could affect the balance of pow(d)er Edit What year according to the Imperial Calendar are things taking place? Just wondering if any Bretonnian groups of armour clad hot heads Knights Errant are passing by on the regularly scheduled errantry wars.

Can't say that I disagree

Try Dead Space. You'll never look at limbs the same way again *Sigh* Objects may appear closer on the internet than they really are

OCZ sells one as a gaming device. Review Edit: Sells for around $150 AUD

I thought your first reaction would have been to tear off the door handles?

Wouldn't it depend somewhat on the the relationship with the deceased too? I've carried 2 coffins with estranged relatives to a grave so far and was mostly worried about the dead one getting a decent, dignified burial rather than that they were dead. When the father of one of my friends died, I felt sorry for my friend and his family, but couldn't really feel genuine sadness that the man was dead (and he was a very nice guy). "Closeness" probably plays more of a role than any abitrariy family tree coincidences.

Space Rangers 2. This game is great! How come I've never heard about it before Besides kicking Dominator butt, upgrading my vessel with a mix of human, allied alien and salvaged tech, I managed to beat The Vulture at his own game and I'm now the fishing champion of the galaxy (with fishing trophy and all). Started to accumulate a bit of money too, so I'm shopping around for a larger hull for my equipment. Need to find the correct combination of size, availably weapon slots and minimun a slot for a shield generator and a grabber each.

FFS! It's a Spanish Suitcase scam. When will people stop giving Nigeria totally undue credit? I know The Spanish Prisoner scam, never heard of the Spanish Suitcase scam Anyway, the Nigerians made it popular

Hehe... field promotions

46 dead sailors says 'Yes'

Things are not good because they are new. They are just new.

Chicken Came First

What's the current price tag on Death Stars?

Played the downloadable demo of Disciples III for a while. Then a bit more just to make sure I wasn't imagining things the first time. Ye Gods it's bad Plain, dull, boring. Utterly bad voice acting (no sepulchral voice here telling you "Bethrezen is dying..."), music that is... best ignored, graphics that are a step back from the gorgeous looking predecessors. Everything screams Bad Kings Bounty rip off (without any of the good qualities).

...I knew I was gonna be a big star some day My astronomy is a bit rusty. Do these things explode or implode? Probably going to leave a bit of a mess behind.

Ehh... so The Sigillite is playing a game of MMO Excel?

There is a subtle, but important difference between a joke that is funny and a joke where you need to explain the joke afterwards. Sometimes the difference is in the delivery. Fallout 1 went for fast, furious and ridiculous over the top comic book deaths in places. I get the impression FO3 was about dragging it out and prolonging semi-realistic death animations? I could of course be wrong since I haven't played FO3
