  1. If you're going purist pro-shaper, i.e. no canisters, then the only ultimate creature you can get is War Trall, which is pretty good when it has no competition on its own tier. In fact, since the only competetive creatures, Kyshakk and Wingbolt, both deal energy damage, the War Trall's straight physical damage brings much needed elemental diversity to your critters' ranged arsenal. Of course, once you bring Drayks, etc. back nto the picture, you're back to War Trall sucking. Still, Clawbug/Plated Clawbug are pretty good mid-game.
  2. Quote: Originally written by -silver-: This thread now falls under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin\'s_law. two or three times. Quote: Originally Wikipedia: Godwin's Law Godwin's Law does not apply to discussions directly addressing genocide, propaganda or other mainstays of the Nazi regime. This thread deals fairly directly with genocide, so the article you present on Godwin's Law proves that Godwin's Law does not apply.
  3. Drakon morality? I think not. Even their code of honor is a pragmatic foundation for mutually beneficial cooperation, designed with limited, but sufficient, allowance for petty bickering and treachery.
  4. Well, then you'd have to come back and slaughter those wretched serviles to take their robes and knives. There needn't be a third wave.

  6. Quote: Originally written by Student of Trinity: Quote: Originally written by Sir Spiff: I always thought Glaahks were supposed to double as mounts. They look ridable to me. But think of their attack routine. You needn't ride them in battle. You'd just have to get off during the fight. Or duck.
  7. The Ashen Islands are really the only place more or less untouched by the long arm of the GF4 plot. As such, it seems to be reserved for GF5.
  8. Quote: Originally written by Suspicious Vlish: And remember, if even ONE enemy manages to resist your spell, your infilitrator is dead the next turn (assume we are playing on Torment). That's what Augmentation, etc. are for, with some points in Endurance and Parry. I'm sending an Infiltrator through Torment, and Daze is my best friend. There's been a lot of Daze>Burning Spray>Firebolt>Repeat. Of course, I'll be forced to rely on more direct forms of battle once enemies become more resistant.
  9. What I mean is that you must claim the rebel reward to get the next quest, even if you free Tycho.
  10. Humans created drayks. Drayks created drakons. The question becomes, which is superior: creator or created? Let's assess this question. God created humans... In this case, my definition of "God" is a tautology caused by the impossibility of infinite time, an "uncaused cause," and as such, the Big Bang could fall under my definition of God. Anywho, God created humans. Thus he is creator and we are created. The United States of America is composed of humans. Nothing is better than the U.S. of A., which means humans are the supreme existence in all of the cosmose, even greater than God. Therefore creation trumps creator. That makes drakons superior to drayks who are superior to humans. Drakons win. Extra Credit: Count the glaring logical fallacies.
  11. True, but it's pretty modest, and it's required if you want the next quest in the series.
  12. Here is my challenge to you. As soon as possible, you get your ability to create Thahds up to three. After that, you make one Charged Thahd. It must survive and do all the fighting on its own.
  13. I always thought Glaahks were supposed to double as mounts. They look ridable to me.
  14. While I find Infiltrators to be more fun, I love the Serviles' ability to go straight through traps, rather than around them, and survive.
  15. Even if it works as well as it claims to, essence pods are abundant, and there is no shame in running like a scared little girl, so Energy Preservation is kind of useless.
  16. Charged creations could have their uses if 1) You could shape in battle like your enemies can, and/or 2) They were substantially more powerful than their uncharged counterparts, with either a slower decay rate or extreme damage output. Even in suicide squads, which is supposedly the point of charged creations, they're useless, but the idea still has merit.
