The first one does not really justify it as powerful on its own, its basically just the equivelant on a man standing on a really raised platform (E.G a hill) because you can still get a pretty clear view. By themselves they can be shot down easily. They are good for travel because they can get over land and air without the need for destroying walls or hard rowing.

Greetings to the Off-Topic Forum
Hello fellow taverner. Wam-Wam-Wam-Wiggle-Wam-Woo I don't think its safe to venture out here into the depth of serious political discussion and real life, it would be much safer in our furry suits. Don't worry though Retech, I am a little more savvy than you because I have dared to venture out into the utter unseriousnuss of forum games. Its just not safe here, I think it would be better if you go back there, you don't want to get hurt do you. You see in the tavern we are safe from bad things but here there is no limit, they talk about S-E-X, drugs war and other naughty things, if you venture out you could be subjected to all of that. Another thing about here is that its time period is in the boring 21st century, nowhere near as fun as the 24th century in which Captian Kirk faces the evil greek gods or the 11th century where harold had a battle with some people! This is all about politics not all out war. We must keep all sacred off-topic discussion in the back room where all these other super alien robots can't eat us or anything bad like that, they could suck out all our blood and make us members of their vampirezombie army. Come on back with me Retech where none of the troubles of real life can follow you, come back to a place where no real alcohol exists but we pretend their is to make us feel older and more important, come with us so you can transform back into General. Commando. Retech of the Startrek opportunist and can get back to fighting those evil borg!

I don't really want it but I don't think they should really show post count, what does it show? How much a person has posted in the past. Thats not relevant to anything! They need an alternative that is more useful like the quality of their posts or something like that, I was just saying how the number of characters wouldn't be so great but a rating system would be impossible. I'd like the idea of an optional thing in which you could list a note or something or add a little emoticon.

No, what me and Archi said was that we would research these technologys, it is at Dustys discretion as to when we get a break through. As Archi said none of these things are superpowers. Flight or as most people are discussing: hot air balloons are not very useful in combat due to the fact that a well placed arrow will cause the air to come out resulting in everone inside the hot air balloon dying. Hot air balloons need fuel unlike water and land vehicles which can be peddled or even walked off. The only possible military application I see would be as a scout as dropping bombs off or anything would weigh it down. Basically, they are incredibly useful for getting to places but are [cabbage] at combat and anything else for that matter. Steam is a pretty versatile thing and is useful but I don't see how it is overpowered in anyway, people can pedal something so why can't steampower do that for them. Their is no discussion as to whether steam should be allowed in the future, it gives no unfair benefits.

Yeh, I agree and I certiantly can imagine people going through a member's (who they dislike) posts and rating them all down, it just never seems to work. Moderators get high ratings for simply being moderators and people who do silly little things like spelling things badly or using bad gramar are rated down. It simply doesn't work.

[product placement]Yes, but every little helps![/product placement] Yes but the problem with that would be that people would begin writing in a very sily and illustrious way in which they use big words like illustrious and go off on tangents and stuff because tangents are generally regarded as bad and that is one of the critiscisms of the hit american show family guy which has been nominated for twelve emmys and eleven annies which is a really high figure (A really really really really really really high figure) I mean, totally high figure. But anyway, back to our interesting and present topic which is about how much people write they would totally go off on tangents and stuff like that. On a different note. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaa I want to thank everyone who made this post possible, my mom, my dad, my brother, my sister, my other sister, my auntie, madonna for inspiring me and 50 cent for being cool.

Ok sorry, I'll stop doing it. I wish their was a way to measure quality of posts, that would be a lot better than a post count. Doom, whys Falador Library so empty? Their hasn't been a post their in ages!

Once again the research is semi-plausible. Yeh thats basically what I meant. Zepplins and Hot Air Balloons or maybe other methods of flight like gliding or paragliding which can both be used for military advantage. Are you allowed to research more than one thing without detrimenting the other things success? Regardless I also put research into faster loading guns.

Budget before:15,700,000 Budget Afterwoods: Tuzers 500* Tuzers are a new type of soldier which peforms best in aysmetric warfare, they are cheap light redshirt infantry which can be killed faster than other units but in numbers they are the backbone of any army. They wear green clothing and chainmail which can sometimes help in giving a suprise attack and dual wield flintlock pistols, apart from their clothes the only extra weight they have is ammunition and a tethered metal weapon. (In a suprise attack they should recieve about 25% more kills than before) I spend 7,700,000* on them giving me 15,400 Imperial Guard 2000* The Austro-Hungarian guard is the best in the world at the moment, they can defeat most soldiers at the moment. All wear thick two layered chainmail and wield a range of weapons from axes, swords and guns. All however carry flintlock muskets and ammo. I spend 4,000,000* on them making 2000 Two Decker 1,000,000* Explination on front page I make two with 2,000,000* These are added to the Emperors Imperial army apart from the ships which are added to the army of vienna. I keep the 2,000,000 I research flying. *what currency should I use?

Driver error
Well this didn't seem to post due to the driver error, this thread has zero posts (this resumed the title as first post) What I basically said was that the driver error has happened a lot in a short space of time (two months) and you should speak to your forum software provider (IPB) Its really annoying because it just stops discussion dead.

Can I please get feedback. Is their anything that annoys you about me? Is their anything that I do wrong? Do you really like me? Basically what I'm asking is, what could I do to be a better person on this forum? Is their something I constantly do to annoy you but you keep quiet about it? Do I act as if I'm better than any of you? Am I pompus, rude, obtuse and have a short fuse? Seriously, if their is anything I could do better please tell me.

The sky is green, you see what I see as blue as green but call it blue because that is what you have been taught. You are colourblind as is the rest of the world who can't see that the sky is really green. I am the only one to know that I think and I know that I exist because I can think however I have no evidence you exist therfore your opinions are wrong. This proves that the sky is Green. Ross, that is correct but is the piece of paper black or not, if its black than the sky is blue (if you ignore my above argument) if not than its colourless.

The Back Room
If you colour a piece of paper black is the paper black or merely white with black on, that is the argument. A matter of opinion not science.# Ross, what always bugs me is that if I see what everyone else see's because what I perceive as sour could be sweet and what I percieve as red could be blue for another person.

Celebrating 1 year of Hegemony
That's not nice. Let's not try and put down anyone especially those who take the time to create new games. Fun Fact: If it wasn't for the popularity of Hegemony the Tavern would have never existed. :thumbup: I meant in the sense that all the other hegemonys have promply been played for short periods of time before being abandoned, I like the D'neering and the other games but I feel that any changes to the origional game have just not worked and people seem to ignore the fact that whatever they do, as long as it doesn't follow the fundementals of the origonal hegemony (Which was freedom, which was a demomcracy, which was simple, which seemed fun) is just going to be a mediocre copy of a better thing (kind of like soy milk or substitute meats) Archimage, I think it was just a load of little things but you know, I'm just hearing gossip. You know what, we should make a new thread called 'hegemony creation thread' in which we will discuss what we like about hegemony and we put a poll up for everything and such.

Archimage, I thought the last person to zerg (I assume this means rush because normally people say Zerg Rush) was banned from the game. Rocco, your right. If we just keep to the rule of 'be reasonable within these constraints' we could still make a good game out of it.

I clicked this on the forum index as it was the newest thread, I was fascinated and thought it was about some sort of epic clown rampage or mass clown convention but it turns out to be another silly band discussion.
