Re: patch 2.08 is out

I would be in favor of an auto retreat, however I don't see why both sides have to retreat. The explaination given to satisfy those who want such an explaination so as not to ruin their immersion is...

Re: Fun with ... GIFT OF REASON and Super Combatants

Played against Pythium in a game semi recently. Ended up facing a GoR'd hydra prophet. As long as it was fighting in his domain, it seemed pretty much unkillable ;p It was regening around 50hp a turn...

Re: Debate and Duel (D&D)

Arryn, I don't think you can consider retreating while on an assasination attempt a basic strategy let alone a strategy in the context it was given. It's not even in the same catergory, the retreat...

Re: Flying units -- what is their use?

Blessed Valks are one of the scariest units i've faced yet. Give them fire 9 blessing and for those of you who played MoM its like first strike ability from hell. They will DECIMATE the first unit...

Re: Kingdom of Karan - Would you want to visit?

Re: Kingdom of Karan - Would you want to visit?

I really like the map, except for one small thing.

The brown on brown dotted border lines makes quickly noting provincial boundaries rather painstaking. Altering that to red, or some other color...

Re: Debate and Duel (D&D)

I agree. If a unit cannot retreat and live they should not retreat period scripted or otherwise, and if they are scripted they ignore the order much like they will ignore the order to cast a specific...

Re: Debate and Duel (D&D)

Essentially they auto die like Mercs ;p Its simply a technicality if they explode in a plume of blood on the screen, or you have to simulate it in your mind off screen ;p

Re: Debate and Duel (D&D)

I agree with you. I'd do the same thing. Im just wondering what exactly happens IF you try to retreat in an assasination attempt. Do you flee the battle and auto die ala mercs? Do you just stand...

Re: Debate and Duel (D&D)

Zen, I think you misunderstood what Argitoth was saying.

He said, he had his assasins scripted to retreat after the first cast as a precaution to being discovered not as part of the assasination...

Re: Bow Balance

The longbow was like the stealth bomber of its day and age, but the crossbow was probably a more leathal weapon and cheaper in both ways.

It was lethal because any tom dick or harry could pick it...

Re: Ashikaga Shogunate mod v1.01

I don't know if it is correct to say the Japanese airforce was the most advanced in the world in 1941.

I mean, the Zero was a good plane when compared to the clunkers the Americans were using. The...

Re: Ashikaga Shogunate mod v1.01

If I gave the impression that the Yumi was inferior in any way shape or form to a european or middle eastern bow that was not my intention.

I also did not mean "akward" in the way most people...

Re: Ashikaga Shogunate mod v1.01

I believe the reason why the pull was around 40 pounds, was due to the fact the grip for the bow was located 1/3 of the way up. This means that significant poundage is going to exert a fair ammount...

Re: Ashikaga Shogunate mod v1.01

The bow the Japanese used is called the "Yumi", it was a fairly unique bow in that the hand grip was about 1/3 of the way up the bow itself. This allowed for a large powerful bow to be fired from...

I think many of the issues with Kotor can be attributed to the fact while it is NOT a direct Xbox port, it was co-developed for both platforms and alot of code etc was cannibalized between the two.
