I finally got Hugh Mann as a founder. (Reference:http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HughMann)

Unfortunately, the power went out and I've never gotten Hugh OR Mann for first/last names since then.

Beyond the surprising trouble I'm having finding gold (I'm basically surviving on ridiculously hasty trap setup and imp spam, since going down seems to reveal no hidden gold still) I'm having an interesting time with this game, and it's only the .6c alpha if I am correct. . .

Post to watch.

We really need a conversion mod of X-COM into Metal Slug.

Four soldiers, unlimited ammo, rawket lawnchairs, hordes of traitor military followed by tentacled Martians. SHIV is now a Metal Slug, complete with self destruct.
I was actually thinking the other way around, and with the original X-Com. Tanks used as Slugs, default weapon is a Laser Pistol, with various Autocannon/HEs, Heavy Plasmas, and the like.

And any one hit kills your trooper, just like in X-Com!

If that was the case, does anybody think the Sand Simon (http://metalslug.wikia.com/wiki/Sand_Simon) would work as the starting tank, and the Metal Slug use the, ahem, "Plasma" and "Blaster Launcher" slots?

ok someone needs to make a boat in dwarf fortress out of wood and ice :P
IIRC the Mythbusters have an episode where they made a Pykrete boat and sailed it around for a while. Sure, it in Arctic waters and they used an in-house variation of said Pykrete, but still.

Posting to Watch, I remember playing this at least twice, not counting EX mode, which was an additional 2 play-throughs.

Anyone have a link to the latest download?

Edit:Just flipped back a few pages. Sorry about that.

So is there any way to farm ALL of the evolution hearts, or are they going to forever be a rare drop/limited drop that you save for your prized slaves pets? And do they have any effect on the animals bred on a ranch?

The new symbol at the end of the trailer.



look like. . . the Scrin Symbol? My eyes must be tired to say that.

Does anyone remember what the Cult of Sirius's symbol was?

Half-Life 2 is seventy five percent off for midweek madness. (75% off HL2.)

I feel that the game's reputation precedes it, so I'll stop there.

Also, the Need for Speed Franchise is 70% off, but I don't know much about them-any description I'd give would do no justice.

I, for one, would like to endorse this mod for MotM.

Oh wait, this isn't the Liberal Crime Squad Nexus. Foiled again!

I knew about something happening when you punched guards enough, and knew that something was wrong when the 200th punch didn't do anything.

Just a bug, of course.

Also, I was messing around with the final level, here's a few things I did.

Actually, quite a few enemies in S. Tyris are over 130, including one of the only ways to consistently get god hearts-the God Stag, a level 160 enemy that usually is a dungeon boss.

The thing with the bestiary is it's still somewhat incomplete in certain areas-it prety much forces you to go one by one and see which enemies are actually what level.

Also, don't forget the void adding onto a creatures normal levels.

Is there some optimal way to farm pets at the ranch for more/better corpses? I read that the more you brush them the more bonuses the corpse has. Is there a certain number of them i should keep alive or a number of times i should brush them before stabbing them?
Don't forget that your anatomy skill still helps, even if they're on the ranch. In fact, high anatomy can ensure that there are more than one corpse per pet.

Personally, I rub them three or four times *regardless* of whether or not I have a big brush. Be warned, however, that I do it like that to ensure I don't overdo it-which I don't even know if it's POSSIBLE.

A big brush boosts the effect of rubbing, but I don't think it raises or lowers the limit on times you can rub.
