Re: OT - Return of the King trailer

I agree with you on Faramir, GW. They have also taken a lot of liberty with Arwen's part in the story.

Still, they are doing a better job than anyone else has managed. I'm looking forward to the...

I believe you are correct. I noticed the Last time that I traded in a ship that I had more money than I should have left. I didn't have time to try to analyze it though. I'll see if I can get a...

Re: Planets... or billiard balls?

Ok, here is a crazy idea that you might think about. Since the game is 2D, perhaps you could model ground combat. Make the backdrop look like you are on the ground and let planets become buildings...
