    Well, if he's going to have a more significant role in the second book, it would be better to put him there, rather than having him make a single appearance (if I understood correctly).
    D
    What was the other way again?
    D
    Am I making an appearance in the first campaign or in some other?
    Oh, yeah. When you first opened that thread I checked it out and gave +rep, didn't try it, but it looked pretty cool, I thought.
    But, I have seen your campaign and it's pretty awesome.
    But hey! I will get it, it just got very crazy my REAL LIFE in Oct--Dec is kind of messy plus throw a woman in the mix and all hell breaks loose, so maybe next year I can start freash but Idk how much playtesting i'll get done these months...
    I'd feel bad. I already feel too fat while I am extremely underweight ~.~ At least my mind is disciplined enough to not act on that useless feel.
    If I'd have my "optimal" weight, I would probably end my life. I am not really fond of living - never have been - so that wouldn't be much of a deal for me. Though, I'd rather die beautiful.
    It is not the thyroid - checked that. I just have... a very, very quick metabolism or something along those lines. This also makes my body resilient against all kinds of medicine, poison etc. etc.

    "Why the hell not?" Was you conscious reason, probably. I stand by the version of your "compellation". I like new words. No one knowns them but me and a select few. And today, I am cooking up some pudding :3
    You till felt compelled to tell me, did you not? Elsewise, you would not have. And on another note, I simply have a "courteous" way of thinking... It is really not as mean-spirited or demanding as it sounds.

    I do tell the truth. Though, I think I am on about 65-70 kilo atm. The most I have ever weighed is 72 kilo ^^"

    And... I am not anorexic. On the contrary, I make it a discipline to NOT puke, even when I drink metric tons of alcohol, am a damn glutton, always hungering for more.. Recently, I was in a restaurant where trhey have a Pizza all you can eat every sunday. I ate... 4 or 5 pizza's.
    I only like to eat things with little fat, though, am not hellbent on it. Oh, and I eat loads of choocolate, chips, the aforementioned Pizza etc.etc.

    Theorethically, I should be fat. VERY fat o,..,o
    Oh, are you sure? A court CAN judge and will judge based on statistics... if it is appropiate to do so.
    Why? Simple...

    Lets say the defense presents, for whatever reason, the theory that a witness is fat in comparism to an anorexic model. The theory is plausible due to statistics - and that is all the proof the defense, so far, needs to present that theory. After all, the high probability of a normal person being "fatter" than an anorexic person is enough proof.

    However: Now the ball lies with the prosecution. They have the burden of proof, as their scenario is that said "normal person" is not fatter than said "anorexic person". Due to the low probability of that claim, they need to bring evidence to proof their case.


    In our case, I am the anorexic person. Okay, I am not anorexic but I weigh around 60kilo on 2 meters... As I said, I cannot gain weight for some reason.
    With this, I am skinnier than the vast majority of humans on this planet, especially if they live in a "normal" situation.

    This leads to the burden of proof falling on to you, naturally. I have proven to the judge, aka me, that I weigh 60 kilo on 2 meters and thus am extraordinarily skinny. You have done no such thing. However, as this is no trial or anything, I take your testimony as proof enough - you have not given me any testimony so far. Thus, if you refuse to give said testimony, the verdict would be clear.


    And if you are ticked off by me being the judge.. I can at least trust myself to be impartial and a good judge. I can not trust another person to be a good judge in any sort of argument. May sound arrogant, but a friend of mine once told me "It is not arrogant if it is the truth" and i try to adhere to those words.
    D
    I had some connection problems, so I'm not sure if you recieved my PM.
    How? Simple: I do not. However...
    Statistics make it extraordinarily likely.
    In other words: I claim that you fall under the vast majority of people. If I got that correct, you are male - thus, it is even likelier.
    I can make such a statement, as the evidence for that theory is a given and would be easily accepted by the court as evidence.

    This means: If you claim the opposite, you have NO evidence backing this up - at least none you have presented.
    However, I would also take your word for it... Wouldn't be enough in court, but for now, it's fine.
    Yepp. But for that, you are fat! Compared to me, at least. There are very, very few people that are not fat compared to me. Hahaha!
    I think that is correct. On the other hand, the penalties are rather annoying... I sometimes just randomly collapse due to my annoying headaches >.<
    Oh, I have a strange body in the sense of... I practically cannot gain weight and an extremely underweight by nature - but I can drink metric tons of alcohol without a problem. My body is rather.. resilient. I rarely get sick, need very little sleep, am very strong despite having practically no muscles and it is even a bit difficult to poison me... Once, for an operation, I got some narcotics.. But I didn't sleep, I just got high. That despite not sleeping for 30 hours beforehand.
    On ther other hand, I am pained by constant headaches that vary greatly in strength, have heart and circulatory problems and sleep very, very badly.


    Hehe, how nice. Already saw your character sheets ^..^
    Oh, I like to play, more or less, myself in RPs. Which is why I used a facette of my character as the personality, my name, described my looks and put in hints of my past into her story(For example: I suffered from complete amnesia once, triggered by the death of a person that meant the world to me. Also, I have learnt a few martial arts and am especially well-versed and talented in swordsmanship).
    "...always having both fun and pleasure..." This most definitely utters "both at the same time" - not directly, but through it's semantics =P Sorry for misunderstanding anyway.


    And yes I am a bit... strange. Strange habits, strange thought processes, strange body, strange likes and dislikes, strange views, strange voice, strange abilities....
    Oh, many people misuse the words "pleasure" and "fun". Nitpicky semantics, so I try to not put too much value to that...
    And well~ You cannot have both "pleasure" and "fun" all the time, except you do not fully grasp the gist of the word... though, you could be an exception - but that is unlikely, due to the "all the time". Have I heard "nitpicky semantics" anywhere? Nah, can't be...

    For Sex: I mentioned the rather high amount of exceptions, though, many just misuse the words.


    Twisted, eh? Starting with something simple.. I despise warmth. What others call "good weather" I call "bad weather". I find it usually nice to be woken up by random stuff, like a ringing phone. I dislike to be really annoyed... but I like to be annoyed. I find it displeasurable to hear people breath. I find sex, to be usually, just a chore I may do out of boredom~ I heavily dislike what other people call a "beautiful morning". I dislike sunsets - they annoy me. I like getting drunk on my own. I dislike it heavily if someone sees me naked and I heavily dislike seeing naked people. I dislike nigh everything when it comes to food: Eating it, chewing, swallowing, seeing other people eat, hearing other people eat, being seen while eating and chewing etc. etc.~ ~
    These are the few things that come to mind atm. There are many more though...
    We are having this. Quite a pleasure, isn't it =P

    And yes, you are definitely correct and you highlighted a very good difference there. My examples were more geared towards explaining the concept of "pleasure" by listing things one would identify with the word "pleasure" instead of "fun" by nature.

    Although, getting back to the main point: I do value pleasure much higher than fun. But I also have a rather... twisted view of things. What might be fun for others is oftentimes a nuisance to me =P
    Oh, it is right. For example: Sex is usually viewed as "pleasure" not as "fun"(There are exceptions, though)

    Drinking coffee is also, for a coffee-maniac as me, "pleasure" and not "fun".
    Hey...so I got roped into a football game, and I didn't have time to do it, you were right....
    Well Tank-Commander seems like a really reasonable guy, I can see his points and he can see mine (I dare to think) so I think the discussion is getting somewhere productive for one of us at least.

    But it's nice to know that you took the time to send me a VM like this, I appreciate it and will probably follow your advice from here on out.
    Yeah, I probably should it's just I get torn between standing up for my religion which more often than not on this site gets attacked and staying out of it completely.
    Haha, thank you ^~^ I am a rather.. well-versed in psychology and generally regarded as a perceptive person...
    It is more of a Naga-body and face with shell-y lobster parts, though, or? Semantics...


    Oh, I am quite aware why you said what you did say(Though, I guessed up till now, yet I usually guess right..)
    I like arrogance a lot. Especially if it is not.. real arrogance. Like yours. You are more accepting, yet have a direct way of thinking... Your simple choice of words - and probably tone of voice - make you seem arrogant to uneducated ears and eyes... But well, that's just a general guess.
    You are in a position to do so. After all, you are allowed to think and voice those thougts - at least in my world.

    I love the feeling I get while playing him... Burst an enemy down with Negative Blast, Azshara's Malice and Siphon Soul, then rain down Apocalypse on the enemy and take control of the situation.

    You disliked it? General dislike or something specific? Personally, I really like the model and it perfectly fitswhat it does, I think...
    I really like his skillset... His "Wavecrusher" is perfect to initiate a fight, draw attention or save a Hero from demise, the Taunt is a staple and his Rend Flesh makes it hard to ignore him, as he heals up if you do.

    Thank you a lot for the testing you do. I hope you really enjoy my Naga so far~
    Eh, I've been born with a morbid mind.. Though, it seems kinda pretentious to say that, doesn't it? I already ate a bit of a flesh when I was a child.. Due to curiosity. It actually tasted well.


    The Revenant is REALLY squishy, you see? And he is mainly balanced through his CD's and absurd mana costs(Both his Negative Blast and his main spell, Azshara's Malice, cost more mana per level). Additionally, the mana he gains through that spell is tailored to the high cost of his other spells. Additionally, the Revenant has practically no dps without the no-cost Siphon Soul(He has 15-20 second CDs).
    The main thing that makes him hard to balance: His single-target offensive is EXTREME. Negative Blast+Azshara's Malice+Siphon Soul pretty much decapitates enemy Heroes in a matter of seconds. I still wish to see how problematic that is.

    The Fountain Heals are meant to also heal the enemy. The general idea is:
    Usually, you have a BIG advantage, as you can heal up your units quicker.. But the enemy can use your Fountain to their adavantage - a decision I made to add an additional tactical layer.
    Generally, the Naga have an advantage in defensive situations, due to their powerful defensive structures and a prolonged fight is favorable for Naga, if you apply their poisons efficiently.

    Uhh, really? I tested it out a good bit against AI today, too, and I definitely had a good hand in the beginning... Maybe try building more Reavers? They are cheap and powerful.
    Other than your idea, what about the units themselves? Is there a problem that stuck out?
    Thank you :3 As a race with powerful turrets that need to be upgraded, I find such an item rather useful and fitting. Additionally, they are VERY funny for sieging the enemy(I once built 6 of them in the enemy base.. was fun :3)


    And about the heart.. Reminds me of a childhood story of mine.
    In elementary school, we were asked to draw a heart and write something about it - homework. I tried my best to draw an accurate representation of a human heart and have explained what it does and how you can make it stop. My teachers were... surprised.
    Conclusion: Biology tells me you have a heart. A beautiful, blood-spewing heart, pumping red juice through your veins. You have heart. And I'd like to see it.. it surely is beautiful and tasty once fried.
    Haha, I see.
    A rather effective technique for Naga can be: rushing to Tier 3 and researching "Azshara's Kiss" "Sea Web", "Serpent Venom" and "Deepsea Armaments". If doing that, your Myrmidons and Reavers will quickly be very strong due to the upgrade, allowing to overwhelm the enemy. You may try that tactic and tell me if it works out :3

    But please, test to your hearts content. The more information I get, the better. It is difficult to keep everything in check at all times.
    Hm hm... Interesting idea, but there really seems to be some more testing to be done.

    In all actuality, though: Reavers are rather strong once you got at least "Azshra's Kiss" for them. Before that, they are medium-weak.
    However, I think the very very cheap turrets the Naga have may be of use to defend against rushes. I really have to see if there needs something to be done.

    Other than that, the Naga get some VERY tanky units later on, namely Dragon Turtles and Makrura Mutants. These two can take loads of damage. THe new patch buffed them up, too(They were a good bit too weak).


    Anything about the Heroes? I need some input for them, as it is really hard to put my finger on their powerlevel.
    Thank you a lot, I appreciate it ^..^
    I am currently focused on balance-testing... Any opinion on their balance?
