    My Power shall be revealed in many Waysâ„¢. This is one such Wayâ„¢:

    re·li·gion Pronunciation Key (r-ljn)
    n.

    1. a) Belief in and reverence for a supernatural power or powers regarded as creator and governor of the universe.

    b) A personal or institutionalized system grounded in such belief and worship.

    2. The life or condition of a person in a religious order.

    3. A set of beliefs, values, and practices based on the teachings of a spiritual leader.

    4. A cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion.

    Thus, the Wayâ„¢ has been revealed, and it has been revealed to show that I speak the Truth.

    In other words, Etalis, you are full of shit.

    Yeah, sorry about that, Retard. My life was briefly taken out of my control be a MMORPG (Dark Age of Camelot). I've now been rescued by some mighty and magical heroes, so normal service should resume.

    Speaking of missing people, you need to take a break from your chickens and do a bit more posting. Also, the other AWOL regulars need to put in some quality TA forum time. We need an injection of the truly fascinating insanity that only they can provide.

    Jar's about the only one (from the TA Originals™) diligent¹ enough to post interesting stuff on a regular basis.

    Very true Fatman. Although, to (I'm sure) everyone's shock and horror, I went on a FOT tactics spree, and completed the game in 3 or 4 days, and actually enjoyed it!

    Nothing like rushing your squad through a room, and unleashing a volley of energy weapons fire...

    So how did Vlad's hedonism escape the religion v. philosophy fray. I brought that up dispit my avowal of epicureanism.

    You FINISHED FOT?????????? By the Gods man!! I tried to finish that god damned game.... After about 2 hours... I just give up. I get sick of the same "Quick, rush in right next to the bad guy and let your men open fire" tactic. Incidentally, that was the only tactic I ever actually used....

    I got pretty pissed off at the game myself at times...I used to play 'I don't want to take even a single bullet' method, but that takes forever...

    During the final 5 or so missions, I took hits, and I enjoyed the game a shitload more, and it took a shitload less time. Not just because it would be impossible to not take a hit. It was just more fun.

    As for tactics, I tried varied ones...Ambushes, running while firing, sniping, holding my ground, and of course, rushing.
