:HOT: Welcome to the home of Special Forces. :HOT:

We are an elite fighting unit committed to each other and ridding the Metaverse of alien fiends. Oh, and having a good time, drinking fine beverages and writing hopefully witty stuff. Our leader is whoever bought the last round of drinks, or whoever shot the last alien. We are...Very Special.

how is Myth Drannor? Have you had a look at the Temple of Elemental Evil?

Wombie: Myth Drannor is going nicely! Still trudging along in the Main level. I'm too much of a perfectionist...it takes me quite a while to explore dungeons. I don't like missing anything. I'm just about through with the Main level though. I tell ya, it kills me having to walk everywhere. I just freed up the transporter so things should go a little quicker, but still...I wish they would walk a little faster! LOL

Started the next size up galaxy, for me that would be a small galaxy, but I also increased the intelligence on some of the traditionally less intelligent races.

My game submission will taper off greatly come January as I start down the road of a Master's Degree.

Yes, the Q Branch is edubicating himself.

If I don't talk to anyone else before days end, everyone have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving (for those who are celebrating)

Cheers and Beers,

Piers

Hurls...not sure, but I have seen the Winter Sampler, which is a 12 pack, 2 bottles of Winter lager and 2 bottles of 5 other winter seasonal beers. I can't remember them all, because I didn't get it last year. There is some cheery flavored one that I didn't really like.

It's a Master's in Information Technology. It will basically allow me to come in, take a look at a network (all aspects) and make recommedations, etc....

Can't wait to get back to fat, lazy civilan life.

Has anyone signed up for Drengin.net? Is it worth it? I download (at the office) the demo of the corporate machine. The Political Machine sounds interesting. Also, any thoughts on the expansion pack for GalCiv?? :notsure: :notsure:

Cheers

Piers

P.S. Head over to the you know where....

Wow, the Special Forces tavern is getting empty all of a sudden. Sounds like a good time to buy a round. Enjoy the weekend, all!

Piers, regarding drengin.net. I subscribed awhile back. Whether or not it's worth it depends on what you're after. Personally, I'm looking forward to The Political Machine; and then there's the GalCiv expansion in February (?), which the drengin.net users will be able to get, in whatever form it appears.

Frogboy has mentioned from time to time that he's been looking forward to drengin.net being a way of introducing "indie" games to the general market; it wasn't really intended to be a Stardock-only show. If this ever takes off, obviously it would be a better value. As it stands, though, it's certainly worth taking a look at on its own merits.

While the Special forces are out of the bunker.


Poof. A wiley old pirate appears. Ahhhhh there's my case of Pinot. Ahhhhh I'm sure they wouldn't miss this Chardonnay either. Oh and that Chenin Blanc looks pretty good. OOOOO Tawny port. Can't pass that up. Ahh heck. I think I'll just take it all. I'm sure they have more. They won't mind me borrowing this.

A siren screams...

Pontius: Scimitar one to beam up. Warp speed now!!! Head toward Fellowship space....
Meanwhile, while listening to Special forces frequencies, the Scimitar intercepts a message.

Wombat is called from home to inspect the bunker.
Reading Ion trail toward Fellowship space sir.

WOMBAT: THE RINGWORMS!!!!! DAMN THEM AND THEIR FRIGGIN PROHIBITION TEMPERENCE MOVEMENT. ALL OUR GOOD STUFF POURED DOWN THE DRAIN!!!! ARRRRRGH!!!!! Just wait till after the weakend. We're gonna tear em up.


Go get em Special forces!!!

Later, aboard the Pegassus.

Approaching Rohan system sir:

Wombat: Scan for Booze

Reading several bottles sir. And an Ion trail heading deeper into fellowship space. Only the fellowship engine configuration produces this kind of trail.

Wombat: It's Pontius' Pinot. And a case of Chardonnay from our warehouse. The rest are nowhere to be seen. Prepare to die ringworms!!!!!!!!
