that despite the presence of a handful of East Asian-inspired characters in MoM (Wizard Lo Pan, Taki the Warrior Monk, Shin Bo the Ninja and these heroes' AI equivalents) there's no East Asian-inspired race in MoM? I understand that the MoM universe is just an excuse to unleash varieties of races and spells at us, but that always struck me as slightly odd.

There's relatively few Master of Magic AAR's on the Internet. For anyone who's interested, I have one at Civfanatics here.

Hi All. I am hoping that (collectively) you can help me. I am stuck regarding where to go with my current PC / Network set up.

Here is the current situation

Desktop PC

• Case: corsair Obsidian 550D
  
• Chip: Intel i5-2500 3.3Mhz
  
• Graphic: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti
• 1GB
  
• Mobo: ASUS P8Z77-V LK
  
• Ram: 16Gb Corsair Vengence
  
• Win 7 home Premium
  
• Onboard Network (how do I tell if this is Gb ready?) ... pc order says 'Onboard LAN Network (Gb or 10/100)'
  
• Ceton InfiniTV 6 (TV card)
  
• Single Monitor

• Ethernet & wireless Network(s)
  
• Cable modem, router, switch, patch panel soon to be up and running
  
• 2 x TVs supported by Ceton extenders over Ethernet (working well so far)

• Civ4 (yes, a 10yr old game)
  
• Editing pictures (gimp)
  
• recording TV
  
• starting to look at processing the recorded TV to remove ads (depends if I can get WMC to 'see' the new files)
  
• coding (VB6, python, html, css, etc)

• quiet(!)
  
• cool looking and cool temp
  
• not an eye sore (ie no flashing lights, colorful fans, etc)

• fast access storage
  
• move backup routine to NAS support
  
• could move recorded TV processing to NAS system responsibility (so it may need some CPU grunt behind it)
  
• this PC will be in the basement so there are no noise or light restrictions (within reason)
  

• music (played to other PCs / Macs and Sonos sound system)
  
• pictures
  
• 3.5" WD HDD that holds backups of my desktop PC O/S and user data
  
• backup of Mac (if I can convince the wife to do that)
  
• Recorded TV
  
• DVD Movie collection (currently on DVDs but I am thinking of ripping them to something easier to organize)
  

I will host. The game will start on the 17th but signups will be blocked on the 12th so I can make the setup. This will be a power-role game with little/no flavor. We need at least five people otherwise the game will be canceled.

Signups: 16

Hey everyone. I think that Gavagai has become too busy in real life to keep helping me out in PB23, and I'm wondering if there are any other experienced players who would be willing to sign on and help me out. It's a green's game, but every green player was paired with a "mentor" to help out and teach, so it would be a big help if I didn't have to go solo. Thanks!

Anyone have experience with this? Is it any easier than PBEM?

Since my games move so slow (by all intents I'm playing only one game) I'm super bored, does anyone wants to play a new pbem/pitboss?

Whew, I finally finished it. Behold:

I know mobile gaming isn't typically RB's style but does anyone play clash of clans? With how busy my life is these days, it's all I have time for since I can play it on my phone while killing time and when my computer isn't available.
