    Politics and Religion A dangerous game

    I honestly think this is blown way out of the field, It shouldn't make any difference if a marriage is same sex, or opposite. The love is still there, and most of all, it is none of our business what straight or gay people do. On a related subject; what about the genetic advancements, that...

    Rendered Model

    My copy of Elite is so old, I didn't even recognize them lol. I think it is the 2.0 version, don't quote me though. Great game, loved the radar.

    Barbaric cultures

    For the barbarian references I have watched the History channel on some of them. The Visigoths (goths), and the other people of europe, including the huns from the east were called barbarians because they were not Roman. The name barbarian actually changed meaning during the Roman era, because...

    Super Heroes!!!!

    Yeah but sometimes things happen to put you in a new perspective. My mother was a vegetable for 6 years, and during that time I ended up having a great deal more respect for people who go through things like that. It really isn't right to condemn people if you haven't been in thier shoes.

    Would you let spread the bio-virus among the kilrathis?

    I would generally think that unless you wiped out the entire species (genocide), using bio-weapons, massive nuclear strikes (Fleet Action), weapons of mass destruction can be counterproductive. Wiping out an entire population of a world tends to whip people into a frenzy. Unless it is the...

    Would you let spread the bio-virus among the kilrathis?

    Would you let spread the bio-virus among the kilrathis?

    You cannot fight evil with evil. To use evil to destroy evil, makes you as evil as those you wish to defeat. I have a strong sense of nobility during war, it is so strong that I find it distasteful to complete "evil" endings to games.

    Some George Washington humor.

    Kind of funny in the revolutionary war, more "americans" supported the British than, the new goverment. I also read that George wasn't all that good of a tactician.

    Technical questions

    Thanks LOAF, with these I can set up ship rosters. I am trying to make this as comprehensive as possible. I have been scrounging artwork and source text to keep it from being plain text. All I need now are uniform shots, medals, and just a little bit more information. This is a dumb...

    Saga of the Warrior King

    They had an interesting show about the history of comic books on not to long ago. Around the time of the Communist witch burings in the fifties and sixties, a similar goverment investigation into comic books started. This led to an organization that was in essense a "quality" control group...

    Saga of the Warrior King

    On a related but still off topic, Savage Dragon has one good thing. In one of his comics the devil is fighting god and I think the devil kicks god in the nuts, and god gets mad and says "Don't $%!@ with God!!!!!" Gay but humorous none the less.

    Carrier Landing Styles

    When you kill the thrusters your speed drops off pretty darn quick, and a WC book I had said something about, fighters having braking thrusters as well. In End Run IIRC, Bear has to shut his scoops down when flying in atmosphere, because they generate to much drag. They probably catch more...

    Technical questions

    Thanks for the help LOAF. As for commisioning dates for pretty much all the ships lol, is there a fan site that has them?

    Technical questions

    Hey all!! As some of you might remember I was working on a WC RPG, using the D20 system, I have it pretty much done and am now hashing out generational conflicts between the two games. In WC3 and 4, do torpedoes still slice through shielding like in WC2, or do they do shield damage first...

    Carrier Landing Styles

    The coffins don't have scoops, so they would remain at the carriers speed, or the ships were at dead stop when they pushed them out. As for the fighters, the scoops would probably be the reason why you need catapults to take off. As for the Victory, the only thing I can think of is it was an...

    Houston, The Spirit has landed.

    Didn't Clinton want to have a manned expedition to mars back when he first became president in the early 90's. My TV was hijacked so I missed the landing, I was pretty upset. Moments like these makes me wish that NASA was better funded so we could actually get somewhere in our solar system...
