  1. Cool. I'll certainly sign up!
  2. Sorry for your house, Chief. But see it positively, it wasn't a big house. And yes, we should definitely go to the fire station. I'd like to count if everyone is still here.
  3. "This fight didn't go too bad. I'm sorry I let my enemy rally, though. I better just go over there and retrive my Shuriken, okay?"
  4. Actually, I've never been a fan of that canon. Sometimes it may serve well as an argument for something, but in the end, the whole SW universe is fiction, and nothing of it is more real than something else. And as a customer, there are things I enjoy and things I don't. I don't have a private canon, because there are things TCW changes, which I still enjoy, such as the interpretation of Mandalore. And things I don't like, well, I just don't like them. No need to make things complicated IMO.
  5. Ah, thank you. For some reason I was in the belief games were less canon than books.
  6. I'm just saying you can clone a Jedi so that he'll keep his sanity and stays a Jedi. Also, aren't video games considered C-canon, or at least less canon than books or something like that? Correct me if I'm wrong, please.
  7. What about Joruus C'Baoth and Luuke Skywalker? I believe the Thrawn trilogy is the best precedent for what happens if you clone a Jedi, just because it's what the whole EU is based on, and it belongs to the in my opinion very small number of EU stuff that's worth relying on. They didn't really go crazy, rather simply dark. Although EU precedents don't bother Lucas in any way. Wait, I just noticed that's not about Lucas. But it might still work. According to EU, Palpi was cloned as well.
  8. Special Agent Stone has solved the case all by himself and all we did was wasting time?
  9. So, the last fight turned out somewhat well. I'll go for the Veteran Head Guard this time, attacking him from the Back Row.
  10. And just voting for an NPC once can get you a life sentence without chance for parole. So be careful!
  11. To be frank, I myself don't care how they explain Maul's surviving. There are several easy ways to bring a character back to live, as they already said in the article, Vader/Anakin also sorta survived a situation nobody should be able to survive. And didn't Luke on Bespin fall really deep, but didn't take any harm? And Anakin fell in Episode II out of a Speeder before being caught after a deep fall? Or you could have cloned him, ten years should be enough for that. And it doesn't have to be a reactor he fell into, it could have been some random bottomless pit (and to be honest, which megablucking architect puts a reactor near a royal palace? And why does a reactor include a deep pit?). I think, my problem is that they can have plenty of great storylines, they can do lots of things that are somehow logical, they can do episodes about Anakin's turn to the dark side, about Palpatines masterplan, or just a story about heroic victories of the Republic over the evil CIS (), they could just develope their characters, letting them face moral dilemmas or even something profound as the Mortis Arc (which IMHO wasn't that bad. It wasn't quite what you expect from the show, but it wasn't really bad). But no, they completely ignore the viewers' wishes and do stuff like the Droids two-parter and the Savage Opress/Darth Maul arc. But I still hope they'll bring the good stuff later in the season. I really do. By the way, has anyone else had the feeling, that Filoni was trying to say "I didn't intend to bring him back, it was all Lucas' idea." in a very subtle way?
  12. I wonder why they consider it an "amazing storytelling opportunity" to revive dead characters? It's not just Maul in TCW, it's the same in the EU, reviving the Emperor and Boba Fett, along with some others I fail to remember. Certainly, it's surprising, but it actually disturbs any consistent storytelling rather than improving it. Usually, reviving dead characters who had a dramatically adequate end is a bad idea, it mostly testifies they're out of plot lines. Much worse than changing some EU canon. I strongly disliked the whole Savage Opress story, but now reintroducing Darth Maul, well, that's idiotic.
  13. They could simply do it just for fun without gaining level-ups, just dividing a number of heroes in two groups with an impartial umpire rolling the die.
  14. Are those prices confirmed? It's just, they look very fair to me, but honestly, I was expecting TLG to charge a bit more than $30 for the Batwing Set. If that's the price and it gets converted halfway reasonable in Euro I'm seriously thinking about buying the whole Batman wave.
  15. I think you can keep it as rough guideline, but extend the day as you did, if it handicaps the investigations. Or maybe after 96 hours just finishing the current building's investigation, or something. By the way, I must say, I really like the interiors of the residences. They add something that was really missing in RS.
  16. Oh, I hadn't noticed the Spirit Guard has been changed. But thanks anyway.
  17. "Well done, Eric! You saved me from that damage. Let's hope we'll do as good against those guards. I'll attack Guard B from the Back Row."
  18. I am thinking about hosting a quest somewhen, and I have two questions: 1)Is it allowed to include Special Damages which disregard the Spirit Guard of a Cleric? 2)Is it allowed to include passive effects of enemies, e.g., halfing every damage done to an enemy due to heavy armor?
  19. Well, the party can prevent lazy players from getting loot or their share of the money they might get for solving the quest, so in the end, I believe fighting is the better option.
  20. Nevermind, as I said in the General Discussion thread, I had planned to take a break anyway. But I'll definitely follow this.
  21. Looks great, Hinckley. I assume I'll have much fun following this. And those files made me laugh, especially Scouts' one. Good luck to all players!
  22. Just one? That's strange, because right now we're looking for two people. So this means those two came either separate ways, or another one person of us was here the night the Chief died. Can you remember anything about that person? Like sex, hair color, etc.?
  23. "Well, actually, there are four of us who could take a guard down with one hit, but Jess already attacks the Head Guard, leaving three veterans and three normal guards. And you'd receive the same damage from any enemy you attack, so that doesn't matter."
  24. "Excuse me, Ranger Docken, but I think, as one of the stronger heroes, you should take on one of the regular guards. Because you can kill the with a single hit, while weaker heroes like me or those other contestants would need several hits, which means, the guards have better chances to call reinforcement.", Henry suggests.
  25. <If the other contestants count as heroes, shouldn't they have a certain Power? Or does the power equal the level, as it does with enemies?> "I believe I should attack Secondary Guard A from the back row."
