Reply to What Are Your Current Impressions of Windows 7? in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

Windows 7 anecdote: I have a friend who works at Best Buy's 'Geek Squad'. To quote him exactly, "Windows 7 is the single worst thing to happen to Geek Squad. It actually works." Since Windows 7 has been release, his weekly hours have been cut by 1/3rd due to dropping demand for tech support. [e digicons];P[/e] I think that says something about the quality of Windows 7.

Things to Note from Civ V (long) in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

I've been reading Civ 5 previews and taking some notes on the new features Fraxis is adding to it. I'm going to post them, along with a few of my thoughts, to hopefully get some discussion going on the usefulness of these features with regard to Elemental. Remember, even if my ideas aren't any good, a catalyzed spark from someone else might be. This is a lo

Reply to ATI or Nvida in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

I think ATi is going to be drinking Nvidia's milkshake this year. [e digicons]o_O[/e] Nvidia's new cards aren't much faster than ATi's 6 month old GPU's. Nvidia's cards also cost more, consume more power, run hotter and have a lot bigger die size coupled with lower yields, which will limit how much Nvidia can lower prices. To top all that off, ATi will have its' next gen GPU's ready to go in Q4.

Land Tile Question in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I was wondering how production of resources is going to work in Elemental, as it relates to land/sea tiles. What I mean by that in Civilization terms is, how are “food, shields and gold” created. I don't quite understand if the land tiles have an inherent capability to produce food, shields and gold; like in Civilization. Or if Elemental is going a different route, in which the land has no inherent value, unless it ha

Reply to The currency of Elemental in Elemental Dev Journals Stardock Forums

I don't really like Rigma or Gildars very much. Rigma sounds odd to me, while Gildars sound like a name varient on currency that has been overused. I think the best suggestions so far have been 'Sovereigns' and 'Skaels'. Just for fun though, I'd like to throw 'Draginols' into the mix. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] Also for the Sovereigns suggestion, I think the spelling should be changed to avoid confusion between currency and leader. IE: 'Soverins' refers t

Reply to Elemental Player Input: Champions! in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

Tor'in Irewrath - Dwarf Cleric The party Tor'in was adventuring with was compose of a stalwart figher, a coercive warlock, an agile ranger, and a tactical sword-mage. They were referred to as "Dragon Slayers United" or 'DSU'. On this adventure the members of DSU started off in a town and were soon tasked with a quest to recover a bauble that had been stolen by goblins. It seemed this bauble was the key to a summoning ritual that would release a gre
