• • Which race do you hate the most?

  • Well, since there's no gnomes, I'm gonna have to say dwarves.  Never liked them as a TT army, they were such a static let's just sit here and not move and wait for them to come to us kind of army.  Not my kind of playstyle.  As much as I normally hate elves in other games, kind of looking forward to the ones in WAR.

• • Star Trek Online: STO - A Message from Jack Emmert

  • Yeah, that was my only concern, the release for PC and console.  Still, can't help but feel excited, especially considering that it mentions opportunity to play as a Klingon, which if I remember correctly the Perpetual version wasn't going to have (I could be wrong, been a while since I paid any attention to that version).  Keeping my fingers crossed that this is done well.

• • General: E3: Introduction To DC Universe Online

  • In keeping with the theme of this thread:

    You had me at hello...then you lost me with SOE.

    And, as a long time comic book nerd, I wish I could be excited about this game.  But the fact is I'm a little nervous.  I've always been a bigger Marvel fan, but I do love DC as well.  I just can't imagine that any mmo, especially one that's being developed for console play, will live up at all to the great memories I have of the DC universe.  Call me a pessimist, but it seems to me like I won't be able to help but be let down when 70 years of comic history is crammed down into a button masher.  Add to it the fact it's being run by SOE and will therefore probably be released half finished and bugged as hell, and a sense of impending doom washes over me.  Hell, I don't know if any developer could make a good DC mmo that would live up to my admittedly lofty expectations.

    I'm not trying to convince anyone not to play this, and in fact it may be a very well developed mmo upon its release, but for my own sanity I don't think I'll be going anywhere near it.  Whatever, just my two cents.

• • Poll: What race/class(career) do you plan to roll?

  • I normally avoid elves like the plague, but the two characters I want to make are a White Lion and a Khaine Disciple.  I still refuse to make a dwarf, and will probably make a Choppa or Black Orc just so I can kill me some stunties.

• • Poll: Warhammer Battles (Table Top Games)

  • I played Fantasy and 40k for quite a while, but haven't touched them in a few years.  Played Mordheim a bit when the old hobby shop had sessions (could use those miniatures for Fantasy army).  I played Skaven since the day I bought the boxed set, they were the included army and I never looked back.  Probably had like 5k worth of the little bastards.  Also had a smaller Beastmen army, not sure what my aversion to any kind of ranged combat was in that game.  40k I used World Eaters and Iron Warriors, had a blast with the conversion work.  But yeah, I've been eagerly awaiting the mmorpg since it was announced, will be there with bells on when it comes out.
