  1. C&C Generals, my pal is giving me a change to try it out. So far, I prefer RA 2.
  2. I got enthralled on your avatar's synch rythm with my current song(Gire - Nadak, erek). I've found that I prefer armies ythat use Skaven-like tactics. Fast, hit and run and strong speical abilities that can used as finishsing blows. Corresponds to Eldar, Dark Eldar and mobile Tau tactics. Then again, I adore the Thousand Sons.
  3. Zing. My dream is to take the train in two hours and go visit my parents and have a night out with my friends afterwards. Simple, eh? I like it that way.
  4. I don't like the newest brand of Guardsmen, who are just meatshields for the armored fist of the regiments and get executed in droves, while whatever the particular army has for shock troops does all the infantrying work.
  5. Lawrence of Arabia is my favorite movie ever. Hooks me every time and just doesn't let go. I saw Mel Brook's Spaceballs and must admit that that "When is now" scene absolutely floored me. So freaking funny.
  6. I so want to read that book. My Canadian linguist teacher practically praised it from Earth to Heaven.
  7. Padam-phis! I've played it upwards 60 hours and have to agree.
  8. Lodge, Art of Fiction Bryson, Down Under Pratchett, Thud! Various, Ways of Reading Chomsky, Wealth and the People(eng?) Some X-men, what we get imported tends to be so very random.
  9. Holst's Planets My god, why haven't I heard this before? It's incredibly, almost insanely bombastic.
  10. I fail.
  11. "I hap the sool of ay dragen! Heer me roarrr!"
  12. One thing about Stonehenge, there's a barrier that separates the viewers from the actual stones, set there last decade since the they grew bored of cleaning the tagged stones every other morning. You can't really see the henge up close. Oh, I'm coming to England also. Next May, first Wales(Abergavenny, sp?) and then London. It's a two week study trip, but I wager my studies will have almost nothing to do with British history or the language and almost everything to do with finding ways to get jailed.
  13. Nile - Nas Akhu Khan She en Asbiu Nile - To Dream of Ur Nile - Nameless City of the Accursed
  14. Ordo Assasinorum ftw, especially Callidus Temple. Phase swords and transmutation serums.
  15. Heracles that tries to rape you?
  16. Stone Sour - 30/30 - 150 Infinitely better than that godawful thrash called Slipknot. I might actually like it, although yankee metal often has this distinct sound that I abhor.
  17. Eh, the two endings share no similarities. Berserk doesn't even end has such, they just stopped making episodes, the manga story goes on while the anime one is a stub. Evangelion just had an end thats meaning is open for discussion.
  18. Star Wars made space and aliens popular. Not sci-fi.
  19. Bill Brown - The saints
  20. Yeah, the first volume with Misa is good and the second decent, but then it goes downhill fast. I finished all the anime I was watching and am currently looking for some decent ones. Ones such as Pumpkin Scissors: The setup is like an allegory to second world war - the Empire has had a bloody long war with the Nation of Frost(curiously like Russia and Germany) and now it has finally ended in a truce. The world is finally picking things up where they were left at the start of the war, but everyone is desperate for supplies, sanitation and general war relief. Soldiers have become bandits and local aristrocrats rule almost autonomously, distancing themselves from government and becoming local despots. Into all this comes the Imperial Army State Section III - Pumpkin Scissors. A tool against corruption, hunger and war damages, named so by it's tomboyish would-be hero field leader, Alice Malvin. While doing a routine reconnaissance mission, they hit the jackpot and find corporal Randel Oland. He joins the regiment in hopes to perhaps remedy his past sins. Now here's where it becomes animeish: Pumpkin Scissors(which seems to have only six working members, one of them a golden retriever with a tendency to bite the wrong stuff) slowly starts to find bits of information on the silent but kind Oland. He's a huge giant of guy, but seems okay once you get to know him. Well, that is until he opens the hatch of his blue lantern and suddenly gains superhuman tenacity and can take on tanks with just his antitank pistol. Neat ability, too bad it also comes with compulsory nightmares of red soldiers marching on a killing field and chanting "T
  21. You still think with your ****.
  22. On the use of wmds; imagine the retaliation to such a move and you'll realise that shipping the weapons the heck away seems like a great idea.
  23. You know, there's not really a remedy up and coming into your situation. We could throw names all day and none of them would really fit what you are seeking. There's plenty of titles in all genres of fiction that accord free imagination, but right now the best way to enjoy contemporary fantasy and less strict accordance to conservative varieties of a genre of fiction is to find a suitable gaming group and work it up. Or play Planescape Torment. Oh damn, here goes a-namedropping.
  24. It's not really worth that much. Decent romp and above average storyline, but I'd pay only upwards to 15 € of it today.
