Right now it's pacific time, thus the time provided with every post.

I intend to watch the Sound of Music, an absolute favorite of mine.

Laugh for the time being, but I will climb every mountain to seek my revenge.

exile or avernum? in The Exile Trilogy

I was only eight or nine when I purchased Exile III. Being excessively naive, I gave all my characters every positive advantage while adding the slithzerikai penalty as well.

I also started that first party with one character possessing level twenty lockpicking.

I won the game regardless, but I know not to overload characters now.

I did not purchase the first two segments, which likely discloses my predilection on this subject.

A somewhat relevant question: How come Endeavor is currently displaying a long list of individuals who are supposedly turning thirty-eight today?

So the foul progeny of my foolishness consumed the stability of UBB? I'm at a loss for words...

This break is convenient, and I have returned if you haven't noticed. It's new years eve, and I need to catch up with the RP. I have a lot in store.

If you're wondering why I was absent, I was restricted from the computer for a week. After that we traveled north, but we totaled our van so the proved difficulties.

*Prepares to read*

I apologize for my absence, even though there wasn't much I could do without it.

Talk about deus ex machina.

EV Nova and Age of Empires (I or III...II sucks).

Wolfenstein: Escape from the Castle is pretty fun despite of its repetitiveness.

Ratchet and Clank is better suited for a one season TV series. A movie would be forced to integrate having to fly to different worlds.

I find the concept of photons confusing. I first learned that light was composed of electromagnetic waves, and then they discovered photons.

It's hard to keep up with technological and scientific advances these days.

Many passages of writings include "secular" symbolic references to God. If they're going to accuse literature of secularization, they might as well accuse society as well.

In my eyes Windows and Linux are poor operating systems. I prefer Macs by a long shot.

I don't anticipate this thread lasting for any long durations of time.

-Advancing skill levels require more skill points with each progressing level.
-Avernum 3 had nights, unlike Exile 3.
-Avernum series has many more quests, which are placed in a convenient "current quests" window.
-The Avernum series lacks a bestiary, as well as a scry monster spell.
-Missle weapons deal more damage, especially in A3
-In A2, there is a secluded dungeon (South of Fort Draco)with a few gremlins and a giant...in E2 that dungeon had a naga.
-In A3 Rentar-Ihrno is defeated by altering some lasers, but in E3 you merely had to reach the control panel.
-"Ritual of Sanctification" is an ability instead of a spell in the Avernum series.
-The gold limit in the Exile series was higher.
-An experienced player can't simply say a word, he or she must have a set stuff done flag. For example, in E1 a player could merely say "Icarus", but in Avernum you had to have joined the Scimitar first.

I'll let the others finish.

Doing so would require knowledge in computer programming. Even if you did, I'd check the license agreement.

I don't know why, but reading this invoked numerous thoughts of EV Nova.

Chapter 5
-1
Ivanhoe's concentration produced a synergy of numbing thoughts. Available outlets of opposition had been fused together by Anama forces. If all catapults remained intact, his oppressor would overcome Bustoke within fourteen days. The outer sandstone wall was shattered and troops were burrowing beneath his ramparts.

Ivanhoe still possessed one aspect of security. If the Anama managed to bring down the wall, it would inflict heavy losses. Nonetheless, his citizens were oblivious as to swordplay. Meanwhile, Ivanhoe wished to assuage his thoughts with an unread novel.

Ivanhoe lifted his weary frame from the desk. Several torches appeared to cower as he rose. Stumbling like an drunkard, Ivanhoe walker over to his bookshelf. Ivanhoe fingered the numerous spines carelessly.

Ivanhoe released a sigh. He found an unread book titled Of the History of Sancho Panza. He parted the novels beside it and removed the text from its place. As he did and waxy sheet of papyrus drifted aimlessly to the floor.

Ivanhoe shook his head like a wet dog. His eyes had not misled him, he had found a blessing by coincidence.
--2
Ivanhoe ran like an ebullient child. He tore past stairwells, flame, and din and emerged upon the ramparts. He sprinted like a creature of the earth, then finding shelter in a battlement.

He crouched behind a stone structure in order to protect from enemy fire. Lifting the sheet in his hand like an ankh, he read it triumphantly.

" Esto nobis praegustatum
In mortis examine.
"

A voluminous mass of fire formed in the sky, then descending upon the catapults. Four catapults burst into flames, spreading unto another. The wooden giants smoldered rapidly, as well as eight Anama troops.

Ivanhoe crouched down, and crawled cautiously away to avoid detection. He had succeeded in destroying five catapults with a practice forbidden by the Anama.
---3
After addressing his flock, Ivanhoe retreated to his quarters. He had no other scrolls, he would improvise with the remaining siege weapons. With half the siege weapons gone, the walls were assured several extra days of life.
