[quote who="Frogboy" reply="64" id="3205605"] I would like there to be terrain bonuses but there is concern that this could make tactical battles tedious for those (the vast majority) who don't care that much (yes, I know and the team knows that the people on the forums are very into tactical combat just like they are really into multiplayer).[/quote] [ a voice from outside of the forums ] I'd love terrain bonuses!

[quote who="Trojasmic" reply="6" id="3199770"]I agree with all of my peers above; however, if you are rich, please buy EWOM so that Stardock can buy $40 worth of soda for all of the people working on FE.[/quote] Better buy two FEs and give one to someone you know or to complete stranger.

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="26" id="3173443"]This is a planned $4.99 DLC in the future. It will be a bit different and have more depth than WoM. Hush hush though, I'm not suppose to tell anyone.[/quote] This is supposed to be secret as well, but screw it! The DLC Lord Xia has mentioned will intentionally unbalance the game. Want it balanced back? Buy Balancement DLC Pack , only $5.99! True story!

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="50" id="3179452"]Piracy may not be stealing, who cares. Your actions are MORALLY WRONG if you are getting access to their product without paying your dues.[/quote] I care. Adequate definitions in controversial issues are crucial. If someone calls piracy a theft and basing on this say piracy is morally wrong, her/his argument is invalid and conclusions are unjustified (unproven). It doesn't mean that piracy isn't wrong, it just mean

[quote who="Kantok" reply="39" id="3178862"]Semantic bullshit with no real distinction.[/quote] Inadequate definitions (like calling piracy theft) makes reasonable discussion impossible. First we should define terms, than we can discuss about righteousness of actions. Semantics is a key here. Without it our discussions would look like "discussions" of animals (or like some flame wars). [quote who="Kantok" reply="39" id="3178862"]They are taking something they ha

[quote who="Kantok" reply="24" id="3178471"]That picture is idiotic. Just because what you are stealing is intangible does NOT mean you are not stealing. [/quote] You don't get the point. Tangibility is irrelevant. Removing original "thing" (tangible or not) is relevant. I, in fact, can steal something that is intangible: copy a file and delete it from the original source. Copying without deleting is not stealing.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="15" id="3178033"]It is never more "ethical" to pirate something. Pirates are the lowest form of scum on the Internet, particularly those who rationalize their shittiness.[/quote] Pirates are not even remotely close to real "internet scum".

[quote who="seanw3" reply="11" id="3173687"]We were told we were getting a new tile resource a while back. I was so sure it would be beer. I guess essence is fine too. You can make beer out of essence.[/quote] Maybe it's simply an essence of beer? The whirl definitely suggests some liquor... I know!! It's the spiritual essence. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
