The Seether character When I played WCIV: The Price of Freedom, I was disappointed in the acting and script of Seether when I had compared it to the novel Forstchen wrote. In the game, I considered Seether to be nothing more than a nuisance thug. I remember in the bar after he pushes his way...

How should capships be captured? How should future WC games be designed so that capships can be captured? I've got the following ideas: *Leech EMP weapons to disable capships *Cannons that shoot glue bombs to immobilize units *Drones to board, fight, and crew captured ships using guns...

Dekkar is so cool Dekkar starred in the Xena series first I think as an assassin, then I think he starred in the Xena series as some evil magician hosting some kind of resort. I always though it was hillarious when Dekkar says, "I'll show you some staying power." Then Maniac says "You wanna...

Let's try to get back on the original topic We've been posting a lot of unique ideas, but we're kind of getting off the topic. So far, we've discussed for new WC game ideas: boarding capships and other craft to capture them, unique equipment like strawberry jam to jam radar antennas, gum...

BL: Tolwyn took over command of the Tiger's Claw from Captain Thorn, accusing Thorn of being a traitor. This is referenced in the WCIII novel... I don't recall seeing 750 characters in either WC1 or WCA, so I think we're safe from the tired old "IF I DID NOT SEE IT, IT'S NOT THERE!" routine...

RE: To Death's Head Extremely practing games gets you better at them like if you want to complete the games without the invincibility options and/or if you want to try your best against other players.

It's been proven that those who block their senses while practicing something (like WC game playing) can later play the same game without their senses blocked and are better since they've had more experience. I was wondering if anyone does this "extreme practicing", like wearing a blindfold...

RE: To Dekkar's message Dekkar: As for the other games if you really are that great CB,urm how did you know about the elves quote in WC:III ??? Try to get wc4 for pc it's a much better version and personally I find it's one of the better games in wc or the genre. You can probably even pick it...

RE: To Starlight CB: I don't know if the guy wore sunglasses. My guess is if he did, they were for protection against the sun. SL: and why the heck didn't blair nick off with some of that stuff - the flashpaks? would have got pliers doing cartwheels over the flight deck all over again...

RE: to messages below EW: Very well than... they still didn't want it because of lack of ships like Chip sugests though CB: If you've got people who are just standing/sitting in a ship doing nothing while the rest are crewing the ship, you've got a lack of ships. Terr: Does this mean...

RE: Tp Quarto's message Quarto: Wow, now that's a good one please continue CB: Really Quarto, I've never lost anyone. The reason being is because I, unlike most players, don't take stupid risks.

RE: to original post Starlight: In wc4, seether is a product of the genetic engineering program... is it something he took or confed did to him, or was it done to his parents so he'd be GE'd or is he a test tube baby? CB: In the novel The Price of Freedom, it p. 306 Tolwyn says to the...

RE: To messages below Meson: Do you always make a fool of yourself like this? 1) The ships look different bbetween games, cause they are different. There is a huge chunk of time between the games. For instance, there is 10 years between WC4 and Prophect. That is a lot of time for research...

RE: To Earthworm's message I already said that the pilots are trained in hand to hand combat... hardly the makings of a marine though... CB: Ok, what do you define as a "Marine"? Than you're guessing wrong. Blair and Maniac are around 23/24... CB: Are you sure? They looked...

You're outta luck if your fighters/ships lose parts I've noticed the WC games just keep giving players new fighters regardless if their previous ones were destroyed. In WCIII & WCIV you get new fighters, the damage on your carrier/escorts is "magically repaired" after the battle. I think the...

RE: To Earthworm's message below quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the series, Blair & Paz had done ground combat. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How often? Once or twice. And...

RE: To Earthworm's message below Do you know how stupid this coment sounds? Marines aren't trained to operated capships, they are for fighting, and fighting is what they do. That's like telling a navy SEAl to jump into an F-18 and go fly a patrol... Or you might tell a space forces pilot from...

RE: To Earthworm's message below Marines are for taking planets, stations, and in rare ocasions, capships, not for crewing capships....... CB: Do you know how stupid that sounds? As far as I'm concerned, if you're on my ship -- you either pull your own weight while on board or we don't...

RE: To Dark Tower's last message DT: Firstly capturing all enermy cap ships is pointless since amoung the logistics of training a crew to man it let alone capture it there wouldn't be any big explosions for us in the game. CB: Well, what are we supposed to do with the troops who aren't...

The Capture/Blow up Capship discussion So far we've got two opinions on how to deal with enemy capships. One opinion is to to try to capture the capships by using leech equipment, boarding parties, etc. and thus additionally build up your fleet. The other opinion is to blow them up and go to...
