Actually, it's because Bain and TM have been visiting these boards more frequently, and I thought this might get attention faster than if I posted it in the Lyceum.

As of yet, it has proved ineffective.

Read Episode 2. It should clear some of that up.

Basically, anyone can cast any spells or use any weapons in any forum, so long as any flagrant violation is not acknowledged. If it is, then the weapon disappears or the spell becomes ineffective.

Final 'any' count: 5. Well, make that 6.

Kelandon said that, in the next version, Kass will be able to remove them. Until then, though, the only way to remove the Dread Curse is by leaving the scenario, via winning or the character editor.

True, but even the best Shaper can lose control of his/her creations, especially if he/she is pushed to the limit of his/her ability.

Have you seen a mage that knows Kill? I can't remember seeing one.
Both of us probably have. I can remember one instance of a mage using Kill. Also, have you used the Kill spell against everything you meet? Just because you know a spell doesn't mean you'll use it.

quote:
I also seem to remember that in Dhonal's Keep, the magic school's most dangerous spell was Ecsence Orbs.
That may have more to do with the fact that you are an apprentice Shaper. Skilled, and with plenty of field experience, but an apprentice nonetheless.

Somehow, having a pencil ricochet off of me and getting punched in the face doesn't feel quite the same as launching a good offensive strike.

That was quick.

Shapers don't let mages have that kind of power. Magic doesn't give you an army. Shapers can make an army and can probably keep you from making it go rogue.
Not true. Shapers allow mages to study almost all forms of magic, Shaping excluded. Also, don't forget, that while a Shaper has the power make an army, a mage has the power to turn said army on it's master. Also, most Shapers can't prevent a creation from going rogue, unless they are solidly built. And in a combat situation, Shapers generally have to make them on the fly.

It would happen, shaping or not. Magic is a far more powerful tool than you give it credit for, which brings me to my second point:

No. But powerful mages are scattered throughout the Shaper empire, and they are probably fully capable of taking an army of creations.

Just thought you'd want to know that there's an unaccounted-for rating for Death at Chapman's that was made on the 9th of this month.

This was more of a safety decision by the Shapers. While ordering them all to be killed was over the line, stopping the Shaping of them was not. Don't forget, the Shapers want to appear flawless to outsiders.

No. But then again, I've never met a Wingbolt either.

Seriously, though, have you had any canisters today? Because that signature seems a little backwards.

Well, if she trained herself, the therapist casualty numbers are probably low. Innocent lackeys... not so low.

Genocide is an extreme form of discrimination. And discrimination will exist wherever there are differences between humans, or other sentient species.

Oh, and exist is spelled with one S.

quote:
A rock or stick won't give you world domination.
You're right. Technology has gone way too far for a rock* or a stick^ to dominate. Fact is, it's the people supporting the dominators that are granting them domination. If every person in the Shaper empire rose up at once, the Shapers would be gone within the month. But the thing is, only a small group of people are rising up. So the Shapers must be doing something right.

--------------------
* Except for the rock Micawber mentioned.
^ This excludes divinely summoned sticks.

A Bulldoze button, which lets you remove creatures, items, specials, and other such things from a selected rectangle (Sort of like the fill rectangle button, but it deletes things). And maybe a Paint Bucket button, which changes every connected matching floor or terrain type to another floor or terrain.

Really? Have you seen the Empire in the Avernum games? Or any Empire, for that matter?

Also, shaping will end up in the wrong hands and will lead to destruction.
A rock could end up in the wrong hands and lead to destruction. A stick could too.

quote:
Anything that generates wars is bad Nioca. Same goes for genocide.
Shaping doesn't generate wars, nor genocide. Humans generate wars and genocide. Think about it, is there any other species on the planet that launches full-scale wars against each other? Or commits to crusades of annihilating a particular type of their own species?

But that leads to this next question: Since you made the statement that 'Anything that generates wars is bad', do you think humans are bad?
