I don't know, I find BoA to be much more intuitive and easy than BoE - what gets me to most is the different heights and making my outdoors look right.

Senario idea... in Blades of Avernum

I don't mind sharing this idea cos it's a good one and requires someone with far more skill and patience than I to create.

What about 'The quest for the holy grail', recreate the classic monty python film. I would love to see this done, with the 'nights who say ni' and that fierce little bunny rabbit, it would be hilarious... not to mention an easy fight with that guard who got both his arms and legs cut off (he would have heaps of endurance I guess).

The movie has towns and forests and terrain and characters, it would be PERFECT for a BoA senario... what do you think?

BoE has something like this. It is dire.

On any computer. They're text files, and the time is spent adapting things that the computer can't do.

Well, porting a scenario will take ages. You can expect to spend several hours converting each town and outdoor section, and with AtG having 100 outdoor sections and 100 towns, that's a lot of hours. Not to mention the time it takes to learn the editor.

I think that affluent whites and affluent blacks and affluent Asians should be judged on the one hand, and the poor blacks, whites, Asians, hispanics, and anyone else who goes to a bad school should be judged on the other hand. It makes more sense that way, and it still accomplishes the same thing, but with even more benefits for all of the downtrodden.

The real problem is making the determination of where the line is drawn between the groups.

The Exile games explicitly say that the Empire was quite thorough in its non-human policies. And the Troglos in Exile III are from before the Empire met them - they only really know of the giants and the Empire is an unknown entity. All of which points to the complete eradication of the troglos.

Most of the evidence is there in the Exile games. Grah-Hoth, early settlement, etc. are all expressed through books and NPCs.

Although in nearby cities, they've been renaming streets to 'Malcolm X Boulevard' and they renamed Shabazz High School to Malcom X Shabazz.

And I think that 'black' is the politically correct term nowadays, especially with the new influx of Haitians.

Well, where is there any room to really develop troglodyte culture? They appear halfway through Exile III and disappear soon after - not like the Nephilim and Slithzerikai, which are in contact with humans for much, much longer and appear in all three games.

JF, Alorael just said that people killed in MLK's name and that the Black Panthers were involved in violent (read: illegal) protests.

MLK and the NAACP really can't be lumped in with the Black Panthers and Malcolm X - they're completely different ends of the spectrum.
