  1. Sword of the Stars 2: Electric Boogaloo

    Uh, not to derail the fun-train here, but the statement about Magic mechanics is totally wrong. Either the people you were playing against misunderstood how the stack actually works, or they conned you into believing something to gain a tiny temporary advantage. Once you pay a cost in Magic...

  2. Alpha Centauri

    He made more than one point: This is of course some of the fallacious nonsense Marsal mentioned. You CAN'T just run a pile of spears into even a single tank and hope to win, not numerically (Civ 4 combat is not 7 Spears * 4 Strength = 28 damage HURR DURR TANK DIES TO SPEARS), and especially...

  3. The Battle System I Wish RPGs Would Stop Using

    Jesus fucking christ. Every time this guy dreams up some dumb shit to say about RPGs, I have felt compelled to post this. I have been able to hold back my desires until now. This guy needs to be a Codex avatar in some fashion. Gaze upon, ye unwashed, and despair: That face says...

  4. Interview Frayed Knights: The Skull of S'makh-Daon Interview

    The Skull of Smackdown? Really? I guess it's supposed to be goofy.

  5. Let us talk about Master of Orion

    If you do play with mods (vanilla, boysenberry or whatever the fuck flavor they are), check out the Galactopedia for some helpful playing advice. Shuma's government guides are p. fucking sweet. :smug:

  6. Sword of the Stars

    Calling a game "shitty" (or its slightly more imaginative cousin, "streamlined") repeatedly doesn't make it so. Dirk at least posted a cogent argument for his side about why the game is good. Just because you like your 4Xes to be large and more empire management oriented, doesn't mean that...

  7. Bloodbowl Season 3

    Just do it, gorefiend is out until Wednesday. It's just not working for us.

  8. Bloodbowl Season 3

    Sorry for the delay, guys. Pretty sure we can play tonight.

  9. Bloodbowl Season 3

    Good game to grot, I meant no disrespect with the potato comment, I was in class at the time and was trying to dash something off. The replay: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6653110/Reptili ... 12%20AM.db

  10. Bloodbowl Season 3

    I'll be on 7 or 8 hours from now, just idling on steam, and then tomorrow afternoon. I don't know what time that is in potatoland or even if you are a resident. I'll send another message just in case when I log on tonight.

  11. Bloodbowl Season 3

    That crowd throw-in was ... something. Also OSK and I are done: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6653110/Robber% ... 21%20PM.db

  12. Participate in the decline of gaming!

    Space jumps also. You can use the arrow keys if that suits your fancy as well.

  13. Participate in the decline of gaming!

    Watch it before your very eyes as I make my very first (public) game! It's called Nuts and Volts and it's a steampunk 8-bit platformer. I'm not fucking kidding. Okay, maybe a little bit kidding. http://landing.westwood.edu/gaming-public/ If you want to save yourself some serious brain...

  14. Bloodbowl Season 3

    Two brothers clash! Maybe one brother still lives! http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6653110/beards%20n%20rats.db

  15. Bloodbowl Season 3

    The game was going on the whole time. I've never played a game where someone disconnects but the game still keeps going. From my end it seemed like you ragequit but just kept the game running. I certainly wasn't going to drop out of a running game, whether the other player is unresponsive or...
