If you think it will only take about 10 minutes, why not just have a section devoted to combat specifics?

Not until the voting closes. This is to prevent biased votes so that people vote for what they want to win and don't vote forsomething else for some other reason.

If Rainseeker wants Combat Specifics to win so much (or everyone else on the board) then just include a 5-10 minute demo of Combat Specifics.

Frankly losing isn't a bad thing. If Combat Specifics keeps losing it doesn't mean "Hey lets all shift our answers to it" it means "It isn't time yet"

This is a good summary of the upcoming release.  This is a more in-depth summary.  This is what's coming after:

After this release, the next series of shorter releases will be made up of, in no set order:
1) Improved sieges against your fortress
2) Adventurer skills/entity stuff, per the dev next stuff
3) Eternal suggestions voting stuff

sir labreck, how you manage to mangle English so much yet still manage to keep your posts comprehensible is beyond me. Well done.

Yeah, if I could have a extra-side-vote, I'd vote for a section devoted to combat, even if it meant cutting down a little on questions and the winning topic.

I voted combat specifics, but I am hoping that artifacts comes around in the next poll, because that would be interesting as hell.

I'm not sure what a demo would be.  Are you talking about a short audio segment?  At any rate, it's okay with me whatever the people decide.  :)
