    Angry New here

    Well, I have been in the Total War community for just over a year now. But have only just managed to find these forums, which seems strange as this is quite a popular site and looks as though it's been around a long time, along with these forums aswell.

    I am usually hanging around the TW Center, which is where I found the link to the Org on someones signature I believe. Glad I did. Looking at some of the posts it seems that this is a friendly community .

    I have played a little bit of Shogun, wasn't to interested in it, then played Medievil and loved it. I now have Rome and believe that it is my best game ever, and will be for quite some time. To me, Rome is nearly a perfect game. Yes there are some bugs which are pretty annoying, although I have no doubt in my mind that these won't all be fixed within a month, two at the latest... Hopefully.

    I look forward to your replies, and battling with you on either Rome or Medievil!

    Welcome to the Org Dan-san (san is an honourific from the days when this site was purely STW)

    Welcome to the Org, DanMasey!

    The icons at the indexpage are still showing the medieval ones, so I saw an angry purple smilie. I feared for a discontent patron so I'm happy to see the opposite.

    Cheers,
    Duke John

    Edit: it almost seems like mods have nothings else to do

    Icon transalation problem... the one for Centurion I think translates to angry... kind of makes sense from a DI/Serg Major idea.

    I think I will make new posticons for the medieval skin. It's not very convenient that if you post a R:TW skin smiley that you get a medieval skin angry smiley.

    I was thinking the same thing, heh.

    But thanks for the welcome!

    Well, we see things very differently.

    I loved Shogun, and still think it's a great game.

    I think MTW is a game for masochists.

    And I am profoundly disappointed with RTW. I won't be playing it again until a patch comes out to fix the bugs, but apart from that I'm just disappointed that the campaign system hasn't had the kind of radical overhaul that after four years the game is crying out for.

    Welcome w00t w00t
    I pledge allegiance to the underworld One nation under dog,There of which I stand alone,A face in the crowdUnsung, against the mold
    Without a doubt
    Singled out
    The only way I know

    Stepped out of the line,Like a sheep runs from the herd
    Marching out of time,To my own beat now
    The only way I know

    One light, one mind,Flashing in the dark
    Blinded by the silence of a thousand broken hearts

    "For crying out loud" she screamed unto me
    A free for all,Screw 'em all
    You are your own sight

    I want to be the minority,I don't need your authority
    Down with the moral majority,I want to be the minority
