Somehow, it always ends up being a game of surviving against France (aka BBB of Death) >_ Addictive indeed. I've got mixed feelings about the expansions. Most of the stuff they add is good, but micromanaging sea patrols to fend off pirates is about as fun as micromanaging merchants in the unexpanded game. I.e. not very. Overall great fun and a time sink. Edit: I've tried conquering most of the world as Russia (started out as Muscowy) and The Byzantine Empire. Maybe I shuld try going for German or Italian unification some day.

I wonder if the end of the world is trademarked? If not, I could register it and start a "End of The World" ® franchising business, licensing it out to all those who wants end of world events >_

I would love to see a Lexx crpg. Unfortunately, there is unlikely to be a market for it

The only time I'll take a special interest in Dolphins is when they pack up and leave with the message 'So long and thanks for all the Fish'

The only two I can remember having is NWN2 (with map, metal rings etc.) and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. SoC which also came with maps, extras discs and packed in a metal lunch box. I used to have quite a few, including Ultima IV (with a cloth map of Britannia and a little Ankh) for my C64 and Amiga though. I wonder where they went... Edit: I got the Icewind Dale ultimate compilation, but the "extras" are not on print, rather it's the sound track on a music cd and strategy guides in pdf format

Except it isn't really Obsdians decision to make? Atari are the ones who has to have the desire (and money) to make it, since they have the publication rights and investment power and WotC/Hasbro owning the IP has the final word on it.

Your ears receive the sound, not generate it. Thats not answering the original question, is it? Oops. Yes, it does make a sound, even if no one's there to hear it. Does the process of listening to the sound change the observed event? Would the tree have fallen if you hadn't listened for it? Unless you stand where the tree is falling, no. Yes, it would have. Prove it (been reading too much Einstein/Bohr debates recently after Schroedingers birthday a few days ago)

Is 'yip' a real word?!?

Seems like we have reached to rock throwing and tongue wagging phase... maybe it is time for a break? It is possible (I've seen it with my own eyes once) to disagree without getting personal. Disagreeing good, makes for creativity, getting personal bad, kills creativity

I don't like DLC But that is just one opinion

It was wishful thinking on his part. He got lucky

Still gestanden...

Just pull a George Bush evasive maneuver on the shoe.

Who said I had any qualms? I was just cleaning out some old browser bookmarks and remembered this thread when I got to this one. For all I care, wars could be fought entirely amongst the robots

Not quite new, but strangely appropriate: Australia seeks new army robots "The ultimate plan is for groups of these sophisticated machines to be sent into battle to help neutralise the enemy. "

I meant in IWD. I had forgotten that it also featured in IWD2 Edit: Didn't really mean from combat only perspective, just the experience of exploration.

Nothing morally relative about this Jindo guy. He's a Lawful Good disgruntled Jedi, and that's about it. His "grey" light/dark force meter made no sense. Chaotic Good and you've got a deal >_ He didn't seem to follow rules that closely. My favourite Kotor1 character by far.

My bad. I keep thinking of it as a fall offensive for some reason >_ I still think they would have been better off attacking in late February or early March.

Hand of the Seldarine/Severed Hand beats all other towers >_

One word: Awesome! MC, are you sure you are not on a commission scheme somewhere?

Nice read. I even learned something today
