The truth is now that I am on the WoW side of things mostly, everyone over there calls me Gorny, the main crowd of people being from the OTF here, so to avoid confusion with the non forum regulars trying to figure out which name is whos... I changed it.
That and it looks better when I use non lotr avatars.
Ash - How you doin with Battlefront II ?

It looks pretty damn good so far.
One thing i noticed is that the AI reacts better than it it did in the first game.
Several more maps to play on and in the Instant Action mode, you can choose 4 or more differnt game styles.
In the first game it was always capture the command posts/defeat all reinforcements.
Now you have that same mode, called conquest, and two different capture the flag modes, one where you take the flag to the enemies post to score, and the other where you take their flag to your post to score.
There is a mode that pits both sides against the native species on the map ... the first to kill the most in a set amount of time wins.
IE: On Endor, whoever kills the most ewoks in whatever set time limit wins.
Another mode pits all of the main characters in a good vs. evil capture the flag/kill fest...no infantry of any kind.
i was playing han solo, and got slaughtered by Grevious.
You can have darth maul wipe out Leia with a thrown saber, or have Yoda jump right into battle against the emperor

To remind me to finish my Dalek Invasion mod for Civ 3 ... and because I feel like a Dalek some days: "O-BEY OR BE EX-TER-MIN-ATED!"Merick said:I haven't seen this anywhere else so:
Why did you change your av Dredd
Unfortunately, nobody can relate because nobody knows what a Dalek is. Welcome to my world! :lol:
Kill Ewoks? That alone is worth the price of the game. Where do I sign?Gorny said:

right here son!
Anyways I got ino some of the game last night, the space battles will take some getting used to.
During a CIS/Republic war (set just before Anakin and Obi-Wan fly on screen in SW III) you are in the space battle above Coruscant. Its crazy. I crashed into a hangar trying to land.
Later above Yavin, in an X-Wing...some knucklehead in a Y-Wing flew straight at me, killing us both.
Edit : I don't think jar-jar is in the game.. that's both good and bad.
Good because you don't have to be annoyed by his vioce and such.
Bad because you cant play the other side and kill him over and over.

There's nothing to forgive. It's all in good fun.krischan said:
I think I posted here quite a while before paladinking's thread. The part about finishing my civ 3 mod is true. The whiny rant about feeling like a Dalek, thinking everybody should know what one is, and my drama-queen statement about feeling like a misunderstood Dalek was meant entirely as tongue in cheek.
You weren't actually taking me seriously were you? If you were, I apologize. I gotta remember to use more smilies.

I wasn't quite sure about the part where you wrote that you "have to go through that crap each time I try to change my avatar" and where you called me a spammer (which was true, to a certain extent), but the rest was OK :lol: Therefore I tried to reply with a mix of an earnest and a humorous statement.
I like ironic postings without smileys. It makes them somehow extra-dry.

That was all part the dramady.
The spam part was purposely put there to leave me wide open to the return shot - "Pot, meet kettle." Was certain someone would call me on that.
I also spelled "civilization" as "civilisation" as an invitation to accuse me of being a freaky anglophile who watches too much brit tv. Wasn't sure if anybody would catch that one, but it was worth a try.
I should quit giving away my secrets.
EDIT: And paladinking seemed a bit down when he departed a while back - so the whole thing was meant to cheer him up a bit.
