    My processors are 3.2 each I think. Zim, best google "how can I change my bus speed trough BIOS" or some thing. I do not want to mislead you. Might not even be possible with your particular motherboard.

    Ya, that is a pretty good speed, and should run M2TW off one core no problem.

    Ideally I was thinking of hacing about 6 or 7 players. If we don't get any more takers in the next day or so would a 3 vs 2 (with the 2 including Mordor) be acceptable?

    Also, just a little addition to the "Zim's computer" subtopic , I'm trying out a demo for new new fps game with astounding (to this guy who started with Star Craft all those years ago) graphics. Plays perfectly.

    Lol I started with either Warcraft II or Doom II, can't remember. But the demo for Starcraft... that was some epic stuff! I've spent most of my 8th grade hours after school, and sometimes during it, playing 4v4 Starcraft Brood War :D

    "GUYS GUYS 30mn. NO RUSH SO I CAN GET CARRIERS!"

    btw if we don't get enough players for a TATW game right now, would you guys be willing to test a hotseat with The Last Kingdom (on the new patch)?

    Sure, I think those two total-conversion mods are my favorite right now, so to be quite frank, I wouldn't mind which we went with ^^

    Not to go too far off topic but while my first gaming experiences were on the Atari 2600, I'm pretty sure my first PC game was Dune 2.

    Dune 2 was awesome. "Harkonen out" Have you managed to kill a worm?

    I personally would go with the Warcraft 2 total conversion over the Diablo 2 one, but I could live with either.

    personally im not really digging this whole fantasy scenario. i only watched one movie once i think it was the second with the towers and i wasnt really feeling it. probably well made but not the kind of stuff im into and the whole time i felt like beating this lil golem rat up. kinda made me aggressive. anyways. how about a new broken crescent game? with fought battles we are rid of the major disadvantage and if we are leaving the rajputs computer ruled it s all pretty balanced. the whole broken crescent scenario is just tight. or how about another wrath of the khan straight away. i said so before that the whole skipping turn thing with that highly advanced world and those high developed settlements and high end armies is cool. so im up for another one there right away. we got a decent pool of players right now


    speaking of computer games. any of u guys got the new madden already? there are some pretty good reviews on the webs but lots of corporate affiliates writing this stuff so who knows. im rather going for people s advice i somehow know
