Empress Prazac's Reign in Blades of Avernum
Desert Pl@h Lifecrafter Member # 1768	written Friday, March 26 2004 19:15 Profile #1 I don't think anybody knows. You'll have to establish something for us. (Unless, of course, it's revealed at the end of E/A3, which I haven't seen yet.) Lots of Exile history has been established by designers. Heck, look at AtGallows, or Nephil's Gambit (minor, I know, but it's a great scenario, anyway), and stuff like that. -------------------- "Oh, North Wind, why frighten others?

Bye-Bye Damage Cap in Blades of Avernum
Desert Pl@h Lifecrafter Member # 1768	written Thursday, March 25 2004 18:51 Profile #13 At higher levels in BoE, I've been basically just using magic to beef up my 2.5 main fighters and then using my magi as clean-up/backup singers. I just started on Farmhands!!! today, and have to adjust from months of playing in this fashion, and coping with the loss of security that you get from strong parties. I think it's a positive thing, changing your playing style every now and then. -------------------- "Oh, North Wind, why frighten others? In Nature's family all are brothers.

I once went to Desp. Then I realized that my very livelihood and conscience were at risk, and that half the power on the Spidweb boards was given to people closely associated with it, and I shyed away, clinging only to what was left of the BoE Monster Arena. While clinging, my soul traveled between the realms of online sanity, and I found myself returning again and again to Desp, like an addiction, till I finally stumbled on the Lyceum ("So that's where everybody went?"). I now find many answers to life's questions there, as well as the ethics, sanity, and livelihood that I almost lost at Desp. People there are thugs. Well, most of them. Alec's all cuddly. Like a teddy bear. EDIT: Oh, and Desp isn't exactly a spinoff, I think it would still come into existance without Spidweb. EDITX2 (maybe I should put more thought into this):And if I really wanted people to join *GALACTICA* (hint hint) I would direct people to my homepage, which doesn't work right now, and nobody knows about because I'm too shy to advertise, because it doesn't have anything worth advertising, so it isn't really worth it.

Desert Pl@h Lifecrafter Member # 1768	written Saturday, January 31 2004 10:36 Profile #91 Was there a point to this topic, according to the original post? Or has it been hijacked? Oh, wait, there is a question there. Answer: Because it's too late to pull out, and if we pull out now, or in the near future, Iraq won't get pregnant with the seeds of Americanization, which is actually slightly better than their former state. Actually, Alec: quote: the Coalition has helped administer over 22 million vaccinations to Iraq's children. a Coalition program has cleared over 14,000 kilometers of Iraq's 27,000 kilometers of weed-choked canals which now irrigate tens of thousands of farms. This project has created jobs for more than 100,000 Iraqi men and women. says nix to your starvation and disease, hopefully. -------------------- I want my Desert Plah back, (Drakey, check your PM's.)

You always assume you're right. 4. When I see reports of tens of thousands of people dying of starvation in Iraq, I might accept a few of these. 5. You always assume that you're right. 6.
