Thats what I liked so much about them. Before dropping the game (when 3rd edition rules were released) I had a sizeable Valhallan army, 24 infanttry squads and 14 tanks. My friends had equally large Eldar, Chaos Marine and Space Marine armies. Sometimes, we would drop the 4x8 foot table and use the entire living room floor as battlefield, pitching in all the scenery we could put our hands on A handful of Commissars enforced discipline and summarily executed officers and squad leaders if/when they failed leadership tests *Sigh* Why did they have to ruin the game like they did with the Epic Space Marine system

Even the very thought of collaborating with the Xenos and the Traitors condemns you as a Heretic. I say kill them all and let The Emperor sort them out

Heresy is like a tree, its roots lie in the darkness whilst its leaves wave in the sun and to those who suspect nought it has an attractive and pleasing appearance. Truly, you can prune away its brances, or even cut the tree to the ground, but it will grow up again ever the stronger and ever more comely. Yet all awhile the root grows thick and black, gnawing at the bitter soil, drawing its nourishment from the darnkess, and growing ever greater and more deeply entrenched. Such is the nature of heresy, and this is why it is so hard to destroy, for it must be eradicated leaf, branch, trunk and root. It must be exorcised utterly or it will return all the stronger, time and time again, until it is too great to destroy. Then we are doomed. Spoken like a wise Inquisitor. Now go eradicate some Tau planets

The Tau are an unnecessary addon to the WH40K universe in an attempt to cater to the manga/robotech/whatever fans As if the additions of Necrons weren't bad enough They fit in about as well as chocolate sauce to pickled heerings...

Killed by a fish

You don't say? :D That was my first ending in that game. Very very creepy :ph34r:

Racing destruction set... Archon... Doomdarks Revenege... :'( Hmm. Probably a few hundred titles predating 1990 that I would like to see remakes of :">

The cat smiley ate it

So, what you are saying is, red haired people are mutants

We hadn't heard anything negative about it :D

You can never have enough 3-step plasma transformers

And it was such a promising sounding game, even if it was console only

Ages ago, before the IAU took this decision. I found this one just after the news broke, and I'm seriously considering a T-shirt as a birthday gift for a friend who's up in arms about this. Pretty close Buy a T-Shirt, support the civil rights of non-planets :D

I wonder when the first "www.savepluto.org" type websites are going to pop up >_ Bloody inner planet elitists... always descriminating those existing at the edge of the society.

Why don't we put those monkeys to good use and let them write crpgs instead ? An infinite number of monkeys slaving away at the keyboards... one of them is bound to end up with a good game As for the original questions, the answers were: 1) No (for the very reason that a Beethoven might be the result) 2) A (I thought A was James Bond :"> )

It wasn't so much the Fallout 2 part that was interesting as it was the Fallout 3 part >_

It is all about exposure and marketability of the information. In comparison: Number of people killed in the traffic: 44,757 (source: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/acc-inj.htm) Yet nobody sings the praise of or raise statues in memory of the brave heroes, the unknown motorists, who goes onto the road every day, risking their lives to keep things running... >_ As Cantousent mentioned, try looking at the cost in other things than lives: http://www.boston.com/news/world/articles/...top_2_trillion/ Even of the number 2 trillion dollars is a few hundred billions off either way, it's still a lot of money that could have been spent on other things. Even Bill Gates doesn't have that kind of money.

Replace religion with ideology and Taliban Afghanistan with Maoist China and you get quite a few similarities Yet no one lined up in the queue to invade China and liberate the chinese during the "cultural revolution"

Wasn't it olnly the old xboxes who had problems with running that hot ? Still, an upgradeable xbox sounds to me like a cheap (albeit powerful for the price) pc

Not a lot really Disciples III for certain and maybe mildly curious about NWN2. The only two games on my current shopping list are Heroes of Might & Magic V and Tombraider: Legend :">

Somebody probably forgot to store their popular science magazines out of his reach again

Assuming, that the universe has been constantly expanding since it's inception, and it is not being infinitely old, it would only be a finite size, wouldn't it ? Otherwise, for it to be infinitely big, it would have been growing forever...

Easy If you can only define nothing by the exclusion of something, you have a circular defniton. It's effectively undefined by such logic. Do I get a cookie ? Now is somebody (as opposed to nobody) could define something beyond using not nothing, then nothing could be defined

If you look at all the possible numbers (fractions) you can fit in just between the numbers 2 and 3, you'll see that there can fit an infinite number of fractions (i.e. 2.1 2.2 2.21 2.211 etc.) You would think the universe would run out of space to store all those numbers, especially if the universe is of a finite size. If you can't write down the exact number of Pi, how come you can still see circles everywhere ? If nothing sticks to Teflon, how do the make the pan stick to it ? The universe is full of mindboggling paradoxes :ph34r:
