No honorable means we act charming to the ladies, wear our best frilly clothes and hats with preposterous plumage, and proceed to try to stab each other in a very gentlemanly way while saying meaningless pleasantries to each other. Oh, and seeing as I actually haven't played online, I've only earned a sins license to beat two noobs at once, so you can't outnumber me too badly or... something happens. I'm not really clear on that bit yet. :NOTSURE:

exactly my objection. It's inventive, novel, and very easy to use, but that ease of use carries on to when you don't want it. I wonder if there is any other real estate that occasionally isn't used, but I doubt it.

now there's an interesting idea that removes many of my objections, but makes the probability of mistakes a bit too high for my comfort.

1. He said that unlike MMOs you won't have to pay 15 bucks a moth for the privilege of getting your life ruined, and games are limited to 10 players, much like a traditional strategy game. 2. It'll come out in the EU later (most likely), but you can get it shipped to anywhere you want. And no you aren't limited to any nationality. Hope this helps.

Brings back nostalgia for the days in beta 2 when you could build unlimited sovas and bury the other guy in 200+ bomber squads before they could react... *sniff* Yeah, fighters are still pretty potent, but they should be balanced now.
