: The Myth world has been going in this cycle for how many
: eras? We (Forrest and myself) think its seven (right,
: Forrest? Hope I'm not putting words in your mouth.)
: In THIS world, in seven thousand years we went from
: living in huts and fighting with stones, spears, and
: sticks to fighting with nuclear weapons. The reason
: this didnt happen in the Myth world?
: Because every thousand years, the leveler comes in and
: destroys civilization. Look who's left after Myth:TFL
: - the ratty, small villages of the north, the fairly
: uncivilized zerks, the non-techy fir'Bolg and Forest
: Giants. The most sophisticated race, the Dwarves, are
: overrun first. The grand cities of the Province are no
: more. The great libraries were burned. Muirthemne,
: cornerstone of civilization, is a desert. All
: technology higher than blacksmithing is swallowed up
: by the army of the Dark and time.
: The Piecemaker and Rifleman flavors will explain it all:
: "It is rumored that deep below the Werfacktorie
: in Myrgard, in the deepest catacombs and tunnels, lies
: a chamber containing the inventions of each era, all
: lost during the Dark Ages... Nothing but a rumor, of
: course"
: "Stories abound of the fantastic devices of ages
: past, but each era they are lost to the destruction
: wrought by the army of the Dark."
: Or something... I just made those up off the top of my
: head just now, dont worry, the real ones wont suck =)
: I disagree. You dislike the Skrael because they were
: never fully implemented. We have made some skrael that
: you would rather have fighting for you than a zerk.
: They are the most versatile units you can get in Myth.
: While their attacks do not do that much damage, they
: attack FAST with a devastating slingstone attack that
: allows them to take on a group of archers twice their
: size and win... with experience, they become stabbing
: machines with their melee attack, taking down thrall
: like nothing... They are like bre'Unor, but without
: Crappy Statsô. They are fast, have a reasonable amount
: of health (more than a ghol less than a warrior), can
: go underwater, and beta testers have been amazed at
: how smooth their animation looks, even compared to
: other Myth2 units. The response from those who have
: used CoD's skrael has been unanimously positive.
: You'll get your chance to use them soon =)
: You'll love using Skrael against Soulless... its really
: sorta unfair =)
: You'll love even more taking on a group of 12 Leixians
: who have all been reduced into the red by Dark attacks
: with 3 skrael, taking down half of them with
: slingstones, and downing the rest quickly by ganging
: up and bringing them down one at a time as they come.
: God I love that level..... good work, Merlin, on the
: scripting!

My dear Ares,
What the.....are you trying to do?
Make us all insane? Going berserk over CotD like we all did over Myth2 with Bungie Soulblighter site sreenshot of the week tactics and such....?
Well if that is the idea.....then I think you are doing a fine job.
As I remember correctly you project has been in the works for quite a while now.
This could mean a number of things....first of all things are not really coming along...which would be no disgrace since you guys are all well meaning and probably very talented but obviously you lack the resources of a professional game developing company.
It could also mean that although you are doing as planned the shape of CotD is of such a magnitude that it would even take Bungie a year to complete it.
As we all remember Myth2 was not finished in a few months either and it seems that cotD could turn out to be all that Myth2 was .....or even more?
Which brings me to another point.When you are finished what will happen?
Will CotD be a free download or will it become an expansion set to be sold n the market?
Have you already any plans or resolves to this respect?
Yours, admiringly...especially considering your age which is not even half of mine......Gandalf Gersen.....
