ping Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 The Fantasy 4X game Master of Magic got its first official expansion, Caster of Magic, just two months ago. The original game is from 1994. Spoiler The IP got bought by another publisher last year, which made (and still makes) people hopeful that there will finally be a MoM2 on the way. The expansion was initially an insanely ambitious fan mod of the game, now made official. (source) Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only time this marking is seen. It's been a while since I read Gen 1 of the manga, but that's a really neat detail! It makes you wonder if the other Major Holy Blood holders bear markings as well. (It also opens a whole can of worms concerning crests, since crests were based on the Holy Blood mechanics of FE4.)

The original game is from 1994. Positively fascinating. *** Tolkien did not do excessive world building for Lord of the Rings. His actual interest and hobby was in constructing the lore of Middle Earth, a project of many years which can be traced back to his boyhood days. The Lord of the Rings story was merely a particular episode of the fiction history Tolkien liked making so much which he happened to turn into a popular fantasy book. The world proceeded the story, and so cannot be said to be built for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ping Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 A very popular meme in the Civilization community is that Mohandas Gandhi (who is a playable leader in all six Civ games) is actually a bloodthirsty, nuke-happy bastard. This goes back to the very first game, despite AI Gandhi being one of the most peaceful leaders there with an "Aggressiveness" value of one on a scale from 1 to 10. However, if India adopted Democracy (and they usually would, since Democracy is the best goverment if you don't plan to go to war), their Aggressiveness would be reduced by two points - which would cause an integer underflow, so now Gandhi's Aggressiveness would be two hundred and fifty-five (2^8 - 1). Still on a scale from 1 to 10. The "Nuke" part comes from a hostile Civ1 AI's tendency to tell you that their words are BACKED WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS. This meme even found its way into the last two games of the series: In Civ5, Gandhi is the only leader whose willingness both to build and to actually use nukes is always maxed out (this being extra unusual because those values are usually slightly randomized), while Civ6!Gandhi has a 70% chance of having the "Nuke Happy" Agenda (guess what that does). Other than that, he's just as nice and pacifist as you'd expect. He'll just rush to Fission tech as soon as possible, build a million nukes and rain bloody hellfire on you if you declare on him.
