I copped repeated cave-ins a bunch of z levels below where I am mining. I assume it's something in the caverns but it was pretty annoying

A fruit gatherer died of thirst by getting stuck in a tree and then another gatherer took the stepladder while he was up there. I completely forgot to make a second stepladder so that was a lesson learnt.

Go vanilla and maybe as the Duchy of Barcelona. They were pretty goddamn interesting in real life.

Happen to be the queen of Navvara? Happen to be hungry for land?

Marry the Holy Roman Emperor and promptly invade France. Tada! Then you can have fun collapsing.
They have to honour the call but that doesn't mean they have to do anything. So many times I've had scumbag allies who answer the call to avoid the prestige hit and just sit around - never raising a single levy (although to be fair I'm guilty of this too).

That is actually something that I do all the time. If I'm playing as Barcelona then I don't want to get involved in some land squabbles in the eastern parts of the HRE.

Bumping this due to important information.

http://www.polygon.com/2013/1/7/3846854/thq-franchises-may-be-sold-title-by-title

Looks like THQ is really going under. Apparently EA vultures are already circling the corpse looking for anything they can pick off. Personally I haven't got a lot of love for THQ. They've released some great games (Metro 2033, Company of Heroes, STALKER SoC) but they also had some pretty dodgy business practices at times. On disc-DLC for Saints Row the Third, all the ridiculous changes they had planned for Company of Heroes 2, insane amounts of DLC, unfair prices in some regions.
For me the only franchise I would be really upset losing is the Metro one, I shudder to think what EA would do to it.


I could maybe see 2K Games having a look at Metro. They're certainly the ones that I want to pick up the WWE license.

I've got 2 extra copies each of Ace of Spades, and Natural Selection 2.

I might grab Ace of Spades. My steam name is Testekill although I may be ineligible since I've been lurking so much lately.

I just got premium--I think I bought a cozy camper on sale or something.
Now I can trade! And have hextuple inventory space! YAY!

No more throwing out of my meager promotional hat stash to hold weapons!

Ouch, you should have bought something actually useful.

Man, RPG Maker VX Ace was the only thing that I really wanted to buy but I'm totally broke until after the sale. Ah well, I suppose that it was going to happen and I didn't even expect it to be on sale for half price.

Since people have already posted about THQ going bankrupt in this thread, I'll add to it here.

Quote
THQ’s largest unsecured creditors listed in court papers include holders of $102 million in 5 percent debentures due in 2014, under trustee Wilmington Trust NA; World Wrestling Entertainment Inc., owed $45 million; Yuke’s Co. (4334), owed $17.8 million; Mattel Inc. (MAT), owed $12.8 million; and Viacom International Inc., owed $10 million.

So the WWE are owed 45 million/

Love reading the game's Steam forum.

Spoiler: "So much lulz." (click to show/hide)

I hope that isn't a sock-puppet because that'd be hilarious if it wasn't.

Deponia is on sale for half price today. I'm always up for more point and click adventures but has anyone here played it before? If so, is it any good?

I didn't know you could even survive Beserkers. I thought they just outright killed you.

Oddly enough their "Run forward whenever they are attacked" ability is more of a weakness.

Yeah, my Assault has a tendency to pick up kills against Mutons because he has the secondary overwatch where he attacks any opponent that gets within four squares of him. So the Berserker just runs past someone with an alloy cannon that nearly drops them in one shot.

So who thinks X-Com FPS has just been quietly cancelled? I honestly haven't heard anything about it since it got pushed back to next year.
