Most powerful camp in Geneforge 4: Rebellion

Drosstro's cryodrayk thugs killed me many, many times in Khima-Uss, and Porphyra is beastly powerful but a fun fight.

I never completely destroyed Derenton Freehold, but I never really tried either.

Vahnatai are shapers? in Geneforge 4: Rebellion

And never the twain shall meet. Well, actually Avernum 5 has a lot of Geneforge graphics. So I guess you could guess stuff like
Searing Wyrmkin = Searing Artila
Fire lizard = Fyora
Eyebeast = Eyebeast (no duh)
Drake = Drayk
etc.

It's still anathema.

Feel free to connect Avernum with Nethergate, though. :P

This thread is going nowhere. But to avoid hypocrisy, I shall cast my vote for Wingbolts. Great magic tanks, great accurate attack, and their cousin the Unstable Firebolt has three powerful attacks when hasted.

Although my faithful Trakovite servile, Learned Tal, never once subjected a fellow creation to his rule. :P

I recently purchased Avernum 5, so I have nothing to rant about.

Any other game and I'd say "Wow, you need to get a life." But as it is, I totally agree. :D

Edit: Never mind, I think you covered all the possibilities.

That is evolving them...

Edit: I see where you were confused. I believe you were expecting macroevolution, whereas evolving creations is simple microevolution. Anything larger scale belongs on the wish list.

Yes, I wish you could charge creations or something like that, but it's not possible.

As you gain experience, some of it goes to your creations. Eventually they gain levels, and you can spend their skill points to enhance them. Unfortunately they take up more essence when you do that. But they still get more powerful as they gain levels whether you evolve them or not, so keeping creations around for a long time can still be a good idea.

Hope this helps :)

Too bad Romney dropped out. But he has a point - the GOP really needs to work together. Even if it means a compromise, i.e. John McCain.

I find it interesting that, so far, Obama is favored by more Spiderweb Republicans than Hillary is by Spiderweb Democrats.

Ah, but it is. It's all a matter of opinion, is it not? What one person considers a hill worth dying on, another may easily consider bull and ridicule them for it.

Who besides the terrorists are we fighting in Iraq, anyway? Also, the government has a lot of info the average American doesn't. For instance, there's this little fact.

Edit: I just remembered this article.

I get in more than enough political arguments already, or I might venture to disagree. He's not perfect, but he doesn't deserve half the hate so many people have for him.

Oh, and another thing. A coward would not have stood up to the terrorists like Bush has, especially with the knowledge that he would have to resist the liberal media as well. Call him names if you like, but coward is the wrong one.

...so much for not getting in arguments...

My point exactly. We need a(nother) leader, not just some nice person who will make everybody happy. Because "everybody" can't be happy at the same time. Or just won't, as the case may be.

Hey, I was just there myself. I was wondering what difference it makes whether you kill Samael or spare him? I'm personally inclined to mercy, but if there's something to be gained by killing him, my mercenary impulse might just take over.

I know all too well his economic positions, I'm the Emperor, remember? He would abolish income tax, and while that sounds great, it benefits the upper class far more than it benefits you (lower middle class). He would instead support things such as sales taxes to fund the government, which hurts the lower classes much more than the higher ones. He would cut just about all spending on government programs, which also screws the lower classes, who benefit from those the most. Now, do you support him because you have faith that you can prosper despite this guy basically created barriers to your progress (which I, as a Tullegolite, would respect), or do you actually think he's helping everyone out with these policies?
That is a better point than I've heard in a long time. Congrats, especially because I can say this about Ron Paul as well. So next time my "Paulhead" teacher starts ranting about the income tax, I'll have a question... muahaha!

As an aside, I don't really have that much against Ron Paul. I think he's a nice guy. Just not a Presidential type. His supporters are another matter entirely, however. They need to take a serious chill pill, and promote some unity in the GOP.
