No, this shouldn't be posted in the Geneforge forum. It's at home here. If you read the forum description for General, it says: "A general discussion forum for our company and games." This includes all general things, as well as non game specific questions. Asking for how useful the hintbooks are is general. ************************************************* Now, to answer the question, you most likely wouln't need them. The games are fairly selfsupporting, and even then walkthroughs can help you. I, alas, can't post a bit of the hintbooks though. -------------------- Pass the sauerkraut and chips please.

quote:Before I go on, I'd like to say that you should use paragraphs. It makes it much easier to read your text. Now then, you're saying that if you kill everyone in a city, and then come back, there should be more to do? I don't think that is very realistic. Or are you saying that new things should come to a city, like wandering merchants or something? That would be nice. A few of those skills, like stealth, are reasonable. However, other skills like alchemy, seem like a waste of time. It seems to be a time-consuming task, so having our PC do it seems to be a lot of work. I also don't like making it there are class specific traits. On bigger cities, this is a war. As seen by Valeya and Poryphra, all the big cities get destroyed. Not to mention you made this idea rather vague. -------------------- "I'm happy I'm the mentally disturbed person I am." -Nioca "Yes, Iffy is a demon." -Iffy "All (Spiderweb) servers should be taken down, erased, and then subjected to dissolution by alkahest." -Alorael Posts: 1186 | Registered: Friday, June 18 2004 07:00 |

A nasty force already forced the Shapers and Rebels into a temporary alliance. It was called Monarch. Serviles have already been discussed excrutiatingly. It is possible, but not likely. Although Jeff added the new uber-loyalist battle serviles in G4, so it is more likely now then ever. Bah, Alwan and Greta have served their time and both became rather dull by the end of G4. However, Miranda should stay as she is my favourite Shaper. Skilled, definitly sticks out in a crowd, and is an uplift/comic relief. PCs don't show up in latter games. It's not Jeff's style, and would tell what the PC did in the last game. Doesn't really work out in a big open-ended game like this. Ehem, people actually want to see the result of the war, not some post-apocalyptic copy game. Not to mention that there hasn't even been real mention of the gods. -------------------- "I'm happy I'm the mentally disturbed person I am." -Nioca "Yes, Iffy is a demon." -Iffy "All (Spiderweb) servers should be taken down, erased, and then subjected to dissolution by alkahest." -Alorael Posts: 1186 | Registered: Friday, June 18 2004 07:00 |

Someone already said elsewhere that strategy could include anything from: kill mage first, to luring enemies into traps. In other words, it's practically impossible to not use strategy. -------------------- Pass the sauerkraut and chips please. Posts: 1186 | Registered: Friday, June 18 2004 07:00 |

The Geneforge games have always been very open ended, geist. Have you bought any of them? The Shapers will probably, depending on which ending is chosen, start teaching magic quickly and make becoming a Shaper easier. However I'd like to remind you that the middle of a warzone is not the best place for an apprentice to train. Unless it was the Sholai, who really don't have the man power, or the Trakovites, who might have the man power, the new force would be to weak. That already happened in the Fens of Aziraph, pre-Monarch's death. Of course the monsters that get spawned don't give experience though. Pity. Missle weapons giving stat bonuses sounds cool, and definitly possible. Personally, I'd like to see the Trakovite ending so that all three sides have pretty much equal power. Along with more refugees, more people taking advantage of the chaos, (bandits, cultists, etc.) Alwan and Greta dead, and new player shaped creations. (Golem, Shade, and a shapeshifter like the Titan was) -------------------- "I'm happy I'm the mentally disturbed person I am." -Nioca "Yes, Iffy is a demon." -Iffy "All (Spiderweb) servers should be taken down, erased, and then subjected to dissolution by alkahest." -Alorael Posts: 1186 | Registered: Friday, June 18 2004 07:00 |

quote:Fusing creations would require a lot of work from Jeff. What happens when a charged creation and a non-charged creations fuse? The number of permutations are far too large. The only way this could possibly be feasible is if Jeff cut out level 2 creations, (cryoa, charged vlish, Ur-Drakon, etc.) and only let fusing inside tiers (fyora-artilla, not fyora-vlish). In other words, it would look wrong and be implausible to introduce. -------------------- Pass the sauerkraut and chips please. Posts: 1186 | Registered: Friday, June 18 2004 07:00 |

Are you kidding? There is no doubt that the Insidious Infiltrator would go Trakovite. When reading through, Valeta Blue always sympathizes with the Trakovites, except when Val kills them of course. I mean, when Val didn't use a canister fso she could get a Trakovite quest, well, it was obvious.

Just for realism's sake, a solution to loyalist hauling around Drayks/Drakons/etc: Rebels teach Drayk, Loyalist parallel is Shade (magical, not spiritual) Loyalists teach Kyshakk, Rebel parallel is mole-like creature (agile) Rebels teach Rotghroth, Loyalist parallel is a turtle-like creature (thorn damage) Loyalists teach Wingbolt, Rebel parallel is Shapeshifter (like the Titan did) Rebels teach Drakon, Loyalist parallel is Golem Loyalists teach War Trall, Rebel parallel is ape-like being Rebels teach Gazer, Loyalists teach Parasite Bugs (5 Bugs count as 1 slot, swarming style) -------------------- Pass the sauerkraut and chips please.
