Wintersong

Out of curiosity, I made this little test mod for dual wielding. It's based in adding a couple of long swords to the Sovereign creation screen. One of them is for the right hand and is considered weapon. The second goes in the left hand and is considered defense (it adds to the attack though). The blades are not balanced as it was not the purpose of the test, the same as having a defense item (even if shaped as sword... and that gives attack score) in an XML about Weapons. :P

[quote who="Tridus" reply="34" id="2699152"] Read the link. DoW 2's developers were the ones who said they were following Blizzard on this. It seems fairly likely that they have some idea of what they're talking about. [/quote]I suppose that you really mean when Relic had planned campaigns for Orks and Eldars. But thso campaigns were moved from release to some kind of (free?) DCL to finally... not being done?

[quote who="Melamine" reply="104" id="2698189"]Whatever happened to respect? If you don't like a remastered 1998 game, don't insult those who like it. Likewise, if you measure your happiness in actions per minute, why belittle those of differing opinions? [/quote]What I find funny was all the bashing (from some people) to DoW 2 for not being a DoW with improved graphics and daring to try something new in gameplay.

[quote who="Timmaigh" reply="6" id="2699180"]What´s up with Steamworks? Is it different to Steam? Will the game only be available through it? I hope not ffs, i want the physical copy... [/quote]Steamworks means that the game, even if it's released in physical, requires you to be connected constantly to Steam to be able to play. Just that.

[quote who="Tridus" reply="26" id="2697461"]Wait, you mean the same Dawn of War 2 that only lets you play as one race in the campaign, directly following Blizzard's lead?[/quote]Lead of what? DoW 2 was long before Starcraft 2.[e digicons]o_O[/e] DoW has one campaing for one race. Stacraft 2 came later with just one too. DoW 2 has you in your ship where you can improve units and select missions, including optional ones. Stacraft 2 has you in your ship where... well, like DoW 2 but you c

[quote quoting="post"]Then again, if you implement Nightshade as a terrain bonus, I guess I could capitulate, but that doesn't change my point.

[quote who="Sushikawa" reply="37" id="2697849"] Wintersong releases a bunch of new buildings, but does so slowly over the course of a few months. Luckmann has downloaded all of them, and decides he doesn't like the names. He takes it upon himself to change the names of buildings, adds some cheesy particle effects and repacks them into "Luckmann's Uber Construction Pack", doesn't give any credit to Wintersong, then wins one of these contest. Winter takes a lo

[quote who="Sushikawa" reply="30" id="2697805"] This would discourage sharing of work and ideas amongst people, and would lead to some drama because some one did X and Y, then some else added Z to it and got something out of it, but the X Y guy got nothing. The best way for Stardock to show appreciation for the modders is to support them technically, not reward them materially. [/quote][e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="19" id="2697697"]Hey, why not.... I'm not a modder myself, but if modding is such a huge part of the game... every month select 2-3 mods, let the community vote for one, stardock decides another, if yours is good enough then a 25 buck giftcard is in order. It's not about creating an incentive, though. It's showing that you appreciate the modders. [/quote]If its really about appreciating modders, relase more stuff. :P

[quote who="arstal" reply="2" id="2697404"] especially if you offered some rewards for it, like $100 gift cards to Impulse. [/quote]No doubt, pure altruism.

Really. Are you sure this is not Starcraft Wars: War of the cloned threads ? I want my Eleme

Everybody but me seems to know perfectly and to the last detail the exact contents of the still not developed expansion packs for Starcraft 2. Wow.

[quote who="Xea" reply="122" id="2697314"]How do you make children after married?[/quote]You preorder them from Paris (France, not Texas). Must pay the stork shipping cost once they are ready though (which can be expensive if you play in a huge map).

Bordering dangerously the off-topic: FX Interactive sells/publishes games at 20€*, or 10€** if they are "Gold" line. Sometimes the games aren't very "new" (King's Bounty expansion was launched here a few months ago), but for 20€ you get the original game, translated to some degree (which many times includes voices and not just the manual and the texts in game), and some even include nice manuals and maps (all what a normal PC game box allow). Sacred? 20€. Drakensan

Why not make phone registration each time you wish to play the game a mandatory requirement? How many people in the world don't have phones?

I don't remeber exactly the info but most probably it is in the line of "not the same universe but an alternate one". Thalans came to Gal Civ II from another. https://www.galciv.wikia.com/wiki/Thalan_Empire "But recent discoveries have discerned more of why the Thalan are here in this time period. Apparently Thalans come from a seperate universe that is more chronologically advanced then ours. It is in this para
