Re: The Principality of SD.net (RAR!)

There seems to be a bit of confusion as to the location of where the Principality of SDN net actually is. In Gundam canon Side 3 is actually on Earth-Moon L2: https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/gundam/images/1/12/UC_spacemap2.gif/revision/latest?cb=20110612233424 Given Zor seems to be trying to ma...

Re: Kill Six Billion Demons

It updated just this weekend in fact, typically two to three updates a week, depending on various factors.

There's even a physical book of the first couple of chapters if you prefer your comics in print media too.

Re: The depressing video game music awards!!!

I don't know if it counts as game music, but the Adagio of Strings used in Homeworld stands out for me.

Though it's use first mission manages to be hopeful and optimistic, it then dips into horrible depression on your return and then maybe back up to hope for the final mission

Re: (RAR!) You are aboard the Poseidon

From what I remember, the heroes flooded the ballast tanks so they could swim through them, and it was only after that point that the main ballroom got flooded. I always took away from it that the heroes wound up inadvertently killing the rest of the survivors with their escape attempt. Also don't w...

Bonus Question: Assuming the Independence Day ship isn't immediately blown apart, which ship do you think could hack it the quickest?

Why stop there? With Rome we had LIMITLESS AMBITION, and that led to one heck of a good time, so why not see just how much we can take over? I mean that should be nice and challenging for Thanas too, which as we know leads to much more fun.

Perhaps luckily they didn't remaster Cataclysm in this re-release because they lost the source code I believe.

Re: FFG's new Star Wars fleet combat game...

It's to make the sides more distinct, the Empire gets one big capital, but that puts all their eggs in one basket, the rebel side is meant to use cunning and tricks vs the Imperial raw brute power and so on.

Also depends on what the scenarios and victory conditions are a bit doesn't it?
