No. As he stated in an earlier topic, Motrax got his title of "Senile Reptile" (get it right) after he was banned and reinstated some time later. When he was reinstated, his "BANNED" title was changed to what it is now. -------------------- "Let a man find himself, in distinction from others, on top of two wheels with a chain- at least in a poor country like Russia- and his vanity begins to swell out like his tires.

All right, all right, there's very little point in going on like this. All of us, including Sauron, should stop the baiting and belligerence. The topic should most probably be locked as well, as it has far outlived any usefulness it may have had.

quote:Actually, it wouldn't necessarily have to be like that. The Spanish invaders, being Christian, could have control over traditional clerical magics, such as curing and healing spells. The Aztecs could have any manner of odd styles of magic, although they would need to be more dependent on magic than their enemies. Another interesting idea from another part of the world could be the invasion of India by the Aryan peoples, who defeated the previous Dravidian inhabitants. However, not many standard gamers know that much about Indian history, so this idea might not go over so well. In any case, a game based on historical events would be best as an individual game, not as a sequel to Nethergate. -------------------- Stughalf "Delusion arises from anger.

Allowing all creations to bear weapons or don armor would ruin the uniqueness of the creations, much of which is due to their differences in body structures and attack styles. Rather, I would propose only allowing the humanoid creations (serviles, thahds, battle alphas, rothgroths) to bear armor at all. However, perhaps it would be best if only serviles were allowed to bear armor, as they are the only humanoid creations that lack potent natural armor. Likewise, weapon-bearing should only be allowed for those creations which lack a natural attack, and have dextrous hands capable of grasping such weapons. Again, it would pretty much only make sense to allow serviles to bear weapons. If any humans are available as pick-up creations in GF3 (like Zora in GF2) they should likewise be capable of bearing weapons and armor. One definite problem I would like to see corrected in GF3 is the problem of moving creations around obstacles and around other creations in combat mode. Creations standing side-by-side should be able to move forward rather than locking each other in place. Another thing I'd like to see, which several other people have also mentioned, is male and female graphics for each player character, or at least for the Guardian and Agent. Sorry to sound sexist, but having to play as a woman when playing the Agent took a lot of the fun out of the character for me. Just couldn't really get into the game, because it didn't feel like role-playing at all. Likewise, several female players have balked at the only graphic for the guardian being a huge burly creature with an undeniably masculine build. And of course, I'd like to see more creations. Hugely powerful ones would be cool, of course, but it would also be nice to have some new lower-end, cheap creations to allow for a respectable alternative to an arms race for gazers and drakons. -------------------- Stughalf "Delusion arises from anger.

Well, Waylander, when I said "heavily-augmented drakon," I meant extremely augmented, even more so than Eass post-augmentation.

I'm somewhat perplexed here, but it's unimportant. RC- I'm not easily angered, and I'm not exactly sure why I should be in this case. No need to change your signature, I rather like it. Unfortunate that we posted similar information at the same time, but no matter. WG- My post was not meant in offense, so do not be offended. Just use PM's in the future. -------------------- "Let a man find himself, in distinction from others, on top of two wheels with a chain- at least in a poor country like Russia- and his vanity begins to swell out like his tires.
