Ah yeah good point. You will even have your own Primary.

Right? Having a global primary is totally the ridiculous sort of thing that Democrats do. :rolleyes: :D

Post offices are weird. In Brussels I wanted to mail a postcard and a guy kept talking to me in French. I was guessing that he was pissed off that the stamp vending machine wasn't working. I told him that I don't speak French, but that didn't deter his tirade and he kept complaining to me.
He probably tought that you were a flamingant refusing to speak French. :glare:

It's an innate ability, once it emerges it shouldn't improve or get worse.

In the old AD&D rules you could improve your bloodline a number of aways.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Ah, I was introduced to the setting through a computer game and read a couple of novels based in it. Never actually played the pen and paper setting.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

That's weird. When I lived in Brussels, every time I tried (and struggled) speaking French, people would always respond in English.

Do you mean the Gorgon game? Wow that was horrible.



Even the name is lame. 'Oh nos the Gorgon has an alliance!'

Sierra though, game company of the 90's for me. Are they still around?

Nope. At least not the development arm. The last I saw of Sierra they published Arcanum.

Red Baron 2. So disappointing.

By The Dark Lord Katrina's glorious dominatrix outfit you are right! http://www.sierra.com/

And they are making a new King's Quest Game  :blink: without Roberta Williams...though to be fair she might be senile by now. Can't say I am a fan of the art style. It is a tad retro but since it doesn't invoke the past games it is not even nostalgically retro.

Roberta Williams is a drastically over-rated adventure game designer.  It will probably be better than the classic KQ games.

I stand by my assertion.  The George Lucas of the adventure game genre.  Al Lowe ran circles around her back in the day.

They only sold 40k.  I own one.  It was very bad.
