Are you going to make it so players can't name their characters R2-D2, C3PO, or Data? Because if you don't, 4 out of 10 robots are going to be one of those.

no dual Titan Z's?

I wasn't familiar with the brand, but I generally follow the "you get what you pay for" trend with new products. I'll look into them. I have a 10,000 RPM hard drive (as you can tell, I'm a little skeptical of SSD's), but I've been thinking of getting one. That one is at a great a price.

It's probably lower quality. Unlike HDD's, there's a big difference in performance between SDD's depending on the brand. Kingston Hyper X is probably the best you could ask for for any sort of reasonable price point. Regardless, the only difference it will make, even with a top of the line...

Micro ATX is bad. ATX is good. It's essentially the same form factor, but made for smaller PCs, and therefore worse heat management. ATX is good for mid and full towers. You still need an aftermarket CPU cooler though. The stock ones are completely insufficient, even for normal operation.

I feel like KD in this mode doesn't matter yet. How often will you be getting into furballs? I suspect we will primarily have to deal with 1 or 2 pirates at a time, whether AI or human, and that the true test of just how effective you will be in the actual 'verse will be how often you manage...

yay! Down with the imperium! The corpse emperor shall fall, and the gods of chaos shall rule in his stead! Blood for the blood god! Skulls for the skull throne! Ahem, you get the idea.

It looks like something you would build with a 7th grade "explore circuitry!" kit lol

bah, you guys know no price limits! There is such a thing as a budget, and for the budget, this thing hits it perfect. Although, I would go with corsair RAM as well. I use them. But in my experience, the RAM doesn't make that much of a difference based on brand. then again, I've always just...

oh yes, that's my rig. I ran out of cable ties when I first built it, meant to put them in later. Instead, we have this monstrosity Luckily, because of my immense cooling prowess, my rig runs beautifully cool. I regularly play 12 hours straight on max settings, I have yet to hear my fans :P

But, make sure you don't have system builder windows installed, as opposed to the regular full version. If this is an upgrade and not a straight build, you're going to have to bitch to microsoft that "no, I am NOT trying to pirate your software, I just want to upgrade my PC". System builder...

Wow. That's positively excellent. Nothing too flashy or expensive, but absolutely everything does its job about as well as it can be done. Utterly flawless. Gestapo Seal of approval. I especially love your power supply, many people skimp on it and go bronze or even worse non-certified. This...

Because even if I don't understand it, I respect your opinion. That's actually quite a reasonable argument. then again, things like 40k and battletech are rarely played at home. They're competitive, often in large tournaments with clubs and cash prizes for winners. 40k is especially relevant...

I agree. I'm not sure I understand why people would vote "no", the only difference it would make would be seung adding a spare section, or even a subsection INSIDE "other games" to allow people with a passion for that type of thing not to muddle up the normal clan-related gaming :/

There are some exceptionally nerdy board games such as Warhammer 40k, Battletech, and the old standard D&D that seem like they would fit quite well into our culture. I suspect I am not the only here with a passion for them, and wondered if there was any other interest in expanding our community...

// confirmed, will request permission in PM if I absolutely have to, will otherwise avoid it. Are we done, should we start a new story arc? I feel like this mini-story is finished at this point. EDIT: this is fun, we should do this more often as an RP unit. Would allow everyone else to get...

A few moments later when Wethington was about to drift off, dreams of a hundred credit-filled suitcases pervading his mind, one of his underlings interrupted the business proceedings. Walking in awkwardly and whispering into his commander's ear, the pirate confessed embarrassingly that they...

Oooh! an ITX build! awesome. Any problems with heating after long (8-12 hour) gaming binges? I just call my build Harold...

Now within a few hundred meters of the Basroil, Metzler fed power from his weapons to boost all shields without sacrificing engine power. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a previously unseen, and obviously undetected, small ship. Focusing on the disturbance, now with thermal sights...

Talk to Nkato, he's working on something like that. Also, dem boyz is generally accepted as referring to these guys: http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Orks
