Searching the chest nets you 50,000g worth of precious gems! There are a mix of diamonds, rubies, and an aespecially large emerald worth 10,000g alone. Also, searching the boxes nets you an additional 3234g world of platinum, another 6759g worth of gold, 1200g worth of silver, and 500g worth of copper. You also find a +1 short sword, and a +1 chain shirt!So...
Wear the box and shuffle Eastwards
it just gives me more power, considering the Phoenixes only answer to me, I'm basically taking people's Acts and saving them for later. Besides, I've seen sillier things.Now why would you control pheonices?
Do the fuel tanks, fuel, mortar, shells, and rifle weigh 80 pounds or less?Most soldiers today carry 200+ pounds of equipment.I'll drop back into RTD's.A flamethrower alone weighed like 120 pounds.
Name:Tim White
Age: 28
Division: US Rangers
Gear: M1A1 Flamethrower 2 tanks, M1 Mortar, 5 Shells(1 WP, 1 FS, 3 Light Explosives, Look at the weapon page, ammo section for what they do.) Colt Model 1903 Hammerless, 5 clips. Ka-Bar. I suggest a Movement penalty of -2 for all the equipment, plus the fact that I'm carrying BOMBS on my back to make that more balanced. I noticed we dont have enough heavy firepowah, so here I am.
Short Bio: A hulking, 6 foot monster of a man from the big city. He doesn't talk much, and everyone likes it that way. But he stays calm under fire but cant communicate well when he as too.
Really interested in this, hope I can get in
Open the door.[3] You pull the door open a crack. [4] Something from within slams it back shut. [1-1] You succumb to cyanide.
Hunt for more food[2] None found. [6-1] You find some tasty almonds, though.
MOVE YOU STUPID BODY! MOVE![3-2] You are even less mobile...
Continue digging for steel, plutonium, and uranium.[1] You break your arms. [2-1] And then die of cyanide.
once again use shadow dragon as a battering ram.[3v4] He won't let you. [5-1] You're fine, but your "battering ram" isn't.
Go find a city or something.You don't get it, do you?
Do the Science with AllyWho? [3-1] Oh well, you're dead.
SPREAD MY SPAWN ACROSS THE LAND. ALL SHALL BE ALMOND TREES.[6] Almonds infest everyone! Including you. Cyanide is lethal to everything, apparently.
Deinvented.Re-un-vent the whool!
Either way, what do you guys think about randomly generated worlds to play in? Because randomly generated is always a plus.Works.
Don't make a contemporary city-builder; modern cities are boring grids with little overarching connectivity.+1
Rather, consider a science-fiction space colony. Firstly, it is isolated; they must make everything they use themselves (thus, more interesting production chains). Second, a colonial governor may be unquestioned master of his domain. You want to spend six years worth of taxes on a monorail connecting two houses to a windmill? You got it Boss. Third, if needed, a small science fib can cover a large gameplay annoyance (The same mines can make copper, iron, uranium, or tin, because nanites).
Then there's subtle things like the concept of growth being more fitting to a science-fiction setting than the modern-day western world.
And, of course, it's always more fun to play with science fiction tech than modern tech.
I'd be happy to say goodbye to premade art and let all buildings be defined by a procedural combination of cubes and slopes. How hard could it be to define all of human architecture in a crude scripting language? Not very, I say.Um...I doubt it, especially now that you've said that.
ideas about building generationLooking at it as soon as it loads.
