A CGI rendition of the protoss civilization would be no less than amazing. :D I must say that a well-made movie of the Warcraft story would be very much worth watching. The drama of the Human and Undead campaigns of Warcraft III is perfectly suited to it. -------------------- "Standing on the rooftops, Everybody scream your heart out." ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

Darkling, we all know you're right. The concept of Averforge (or Genevernum, as some would have it) is based on no evidence whatsoever. But some people like to invent connections, just to be creative if nothing else. And by the way, there is a connection... both Geneforge and Avernum came from the same mind! I don't think this thread deserves a lock. Yet. -------------------- "Standing on the rooftops, Everybody scream your heart out." ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

Yeah, although my current character is Canister-Happy. I figured that as a rogue servile warped by the Geneforge, a few canister won't make my life much worse. Besides, I plan to take the Trakovite ending. Until then, I base my decisions on my servile conscience. ;) -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

I haven't used any creations yet (I just healed Moseh) but I'm thinking a couple drayks or kyshakks will come in handy later. -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

The only other thing I can think of is talking to the servant mind. Now that you've turned off the cold, you can have an intelligent conversation with it and it will help you with random stuff, possibly clearing the map. -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

"There it is," whispered Neil to his companions. "Welcome to Oakvale. And remember, you are oafish fishermen. Not mages." The Runic League scouts quickly pulled their rickety fishing boat ashore, and shouldered sacks of trout. A few hours later, the tired mages had sold all the fish, and were ready for their real task. When they were all together at the boat, Neil spoke up. "The Anama have a very strong presence in Oakvale. We must be especially careful here. But I hear old Cormac has found an apprentice of no little skill." Leaving a few men by the campfire, Neil and three Runic mages set out into the dense woods surrounding the town. They heard strange whisperings in the trees as they approached their destination, and as they came to a clearing they were stopped by an old grey wolf. "We are friends," said Neil calmly. The wolf glared at them for a long moment, then suddenly shifted into human form. "Haven't seen you in a ages, Neil. What brings you here?" "Cormac! What a relief," laughed Neil. "We're rounding up useful adventurers, as a matter of fact. We know you're too old, but we have heard of an apprentice..." "Yes, my young filidh. A quick learner, that one. I have taught him all I know. Why, here he is now." A tall man, broad-shouldered, yet lightly built, stepped out of the trees. "Who are these, Master?" Several minutes passed as Neil explained the dangerous mission to Cormac and Taliesin. "What do you think, apprentice? Ready to test your skills?" "Yes, master. I am ready." "All right then," said Neil. "We leave at dawn." At dinner, Taliesin explained the situation to Alyssa. She was skeptical at first, but if Taliesin could help defeat Ahonar, she wanted to help him any way she could. Before the sun rose the next morning, Taliesin and Alyssa met Neil's crew at the shore. And as the first rays of light shone upon the town of Oakvale, they set off for Manarina. -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

Have you turned off the power spirals? That should clear it I think. The control key will turn them off (you might be able to do it with good mechanics skill but I don't know). -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

Hm... That's a good thought. I was planning not to put much into battle magic, but it will become pretty handy eventually. Especially essence orbs for the multiple attacks. Daze is certainly very cool. I never really used it much until my last G2 character, who found that Strong Daze would guarantee victory in almost any situation. Combine that with an Eyebeast or two, and they'll never wake up. :D For now, I think I'll stick with javelins for my main attack. After all, they are the stereotypical servile weaponry. Now, the real dilemma... loyalist or rebel? Perhaps I should balance the two, and go for world peace? We shall see. Learned Tal thanks you for the advice. :P [ Saturday, December 08, 2007 19:47: Message edited by: Taliesin ] -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

After playing all the Geneforge series as a shaper, lifecrafter, and shocktrooper, I am thinking of playing G4 again, this time as a servile. I had heard that a huge QA and Parry boost at the beginning worked wonders for melee Guardians in the first few games (especially G2), but I believe that it doesn't help as much anymore. What do you guys think should be the first place I put skill points as a melee/mental servile? (Other than melee and mental magic, haha.) -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

I still don't see how that affects anything. Although, I suppose you could use this to rant about how screwed up modern American culture is... and you might have some good points, too. However, you would most likely accomplish nothing. In fact, I recommend not ranting about it. Yes, these things are terrible. When I lived in Lancaster, PA last year, a local Amish school was attacked (I believe it made national news). My boss was a friend of the killer's wife, and my church paid for the killer's funeral. It was very close to home. And guess what? The first thing the Amish did was prepare meals for the man's family. Nobody ranted about how American culture destroyed him. Nobody moralized about the evils of whatever. The Amish showed true Christian forgiveness, and the murderer's poor family will never stop thanking them for it. -------------------- "Standing on the rooftops, Everybody scream your heart out." ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |

Name: Taliesin Age: 32 Gender: Male Height: 5'11" Weight: 140 lbs. Magic: Summoning of many kinds, powerful healing spells, Elemental war magic Skills: Leadership, stealth, music (useful in some special encounters :) ) Occupation: Druid - bard, advisor, mentor, etc. Small Bio: Taliesin was born to a family of poor farmers under the rule of the Anama. He was a quiet boy, and his parents knew early on that he was very different from the other children. While the other farmers' boys played sports and rode horses, young Taliesin would sit for hours in the woods, humming softly and seeming to commune with the forest itself. One day, soldiers of Ahonar came to the small village looking for a man named Sean Galloway, who they suspected of treason against Ahonar. Taliesin saw the warriors coming, and ran to warn Sean's family. Unfortunately, there was nowhere they could hide. As the soldiers burst through the door, Mr. Galloway stepped forward. "I won't struggle. Just leave everyone else alone." The soldiers laughed, and bound him in chains. Then one of the spearmen noticed Sean's teenage daughter Alyssa, trying to hide behind the kitchen table. "Come here, little girl. I'll be nice," he chuckled. As he advanced on the terrified girl, Taliesin stepped in his path. The two glared at each other for a long moment. "Get out of my way, boy!" snarled the warrior. "I don't think so," murmured Taliesin, trying to sound calm. The next minutes passed in a blur. The soldier swung a fist at Taliesin's face, and Taliesin knocked it aside, yelling "Leave her alone!" But what actually came from his mouth was in a completely incomprehensible tongue. A blast of fire issued from his hand, and the angry soldier was knocked across the room. The soldiers left quickly, and Taliesin now knew that he had to flee for his life. He and Alyssa ran into the forest, and there they met a druid named Cormac. He already knew what had happened, and he took Taliesin as an apprentice, or "filidh." Alyssa stayed with them as a cook, and eventually became Taliesin's wife. Many years passed as Taliesin grew to full mastery of his considerable powers. Alyssa, too, managed to become quite a proficient healer. And someday, very soon, they will return to heal the land of Ahonar's evil... -------------------- "What direction, what direction now?" ---- My poetry Posts: 432 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2007 07:00 |
