[.804] [Summon Familiar card text] in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

Having already summoned my familiar I scanned back over the spell and the card that popped up looked like someone put whiteout on some of the text. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWONK5sCHno

[0.804][Crash to desktop] in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

After an update this morning I attempted to play. The screen was black and seemed to hang for a little over a minute. Hitting the keyboard and mouse did not seem to affect it. The retro screen started up but while I did not wait too long it occurred that the few seconds I saw it; it also appeared somewhat slower. I selected the old guy with the beard. I kept everything else as is as far as settings with the exception of selecting islands. When the game world opened up the enti

So this authorization on the credit card will be the final one and be the actual charge? I thought the charge did not go through until teh game ships or do I rember things wrongly from Sins?

patience. I pre-ordered a little while back and even though I did not get the Beta to DL yet it just gives me a little extra time for Kitten Sancuary (Damn you Stardock and that addicting game) and finish Heavy Rain.

This will be my 2nd Beta with Stardock (First being Sins) and even though I am getting a late start I hope to be able to add to teh overall game.

Reply to Battlestations: Pacific demo went live in PC Gaming Sins Forums

Better than Midway? I think so. With more units on screen, better graphics and a reworking of the controls I do think so. The plane controls are not bad and cockpit view looks really good. The last Skirmish map is the only one to give you full control of everything. Due to the scope of that map I can see where multiple players are needed.

Battlestations: Pacific demo went live in PC Gaming Sins Forums

SP demo only. The first one is a bit of a training teaching about AA guns, flying and such. It also includes 2 skirmish modes against the AI. One has you strictly controlling planes trying to protect landing craft against Japanese planes and ships. The secong map gives full control over planes, ships and subs while trying to take islands. I am still getting my butt handed to me on this map.

I ran good on my system which consisted of a Geforce 8800 GT 512MB and Core 2 Duo E8400 with Vista64. I have had it lockup on completion of the ground battle training and trying to exit standard ground battle. *sigh* Still though I really like this game. Word of warning.... close combat with teh Americans is suicide. Sea battles are great, although I think the ships sails flutter too much when shot. I love how everyone jumps overboard when capturing a ship. Too bad no sharks :

I have the original version when it was called UFO-Enemy Unknown on the Commodore Amiga [e digicons]:D[/e] While not involving aliens a great game in its' own right is Silent Storm and the sequel Sentinels. Imagine X-com tactics with teh ability to take out half a building. Very cool tactical game. Combined realtime/turnbased kind of a mix of X-Com and Jagged Alience. It uses the havoc engine and you can get some very realistic battles. I heard an

I promoted the heck out of this game way back when and I still stand by it. Despite a few bugs in the expert level near the end of teh game, which could be worked around, I still found it to be an outstanding game. Heck I even got into a little conversation at Gone Gold with Mr. Smart over the game. On a side note, in an interview the deve
