Hi honvedseg Thanks for the link, I will have a closer look when I have time to go through them all. As for my painting I consider myself to be quite good to average, however I believe with lots of practise I can be very good at it. I have been painting Games Workshop miniatures and even sold some a...

Hi there sorry about the scale(1/60) my mistake. In the photos on the link, the pattern on the shield are they hand painted? because if it is than you must have very good hands + skills! :o One of the reason I started this topic is that there are just so many miniatures availble and so many website,...

Sorry I forgot to be more specific. When I talk about war-gaming I mostly meant the 28mm (1/72) type as to anything else. Personality I perfer 28mm as it is small enough to fit well on the battlefield and large enough to be sufficiently details. I suppose you play with 28mm is that right? I feel tha...

Miniature War-gaming
Ok this is basically a question for the designers. I read about the history of Slitherine and it said that most of you guys have war-gaming history. I just want to know what type of models do you have (are they Foundry?). I always wanted a painted Roman army and I think I will get one now. Can you t...

Ok first there is quite a bit more to Gmail than 2G of space but I didn't mention it because I thought you people knew about it anyway. For more information you can always search on the internet. I am sure they will explain it much clearer than me but I will have a go anyway. To begin with Gmail is ...

Hi here is an exact copy of a scarm email I got recently trying to get my credit card information. As you can see it pretents to be from Paypal and suggest that there is a problem. This is to throw people who are not aware of these problems off guard. Among the genuine advices give by Paypal is that...

Yer you are right, no offence by most of the scams do seem to come from Nigeria. There is also the Over-payment cheque scam which someone tried to pull on me as well. Basically if you place an ad on the internet(say for a Car), usually quite a high price. The scammer contacts you and say that they a...

I think that is just a classic problem. The thing is that diplomacy is just too complicated to program so you always have over simplified version in PC games that can do strange and unpredictable thing (as in things that doesn't make sense). This is the same for most AI engines from time to time. I ...

You don't actually reply to them(the Credit card ones) by email. They send you a link which looks like its from ebay or Paypal and you click on it to bring up a new explorer page. And then you type your details in that so there is no way they know what your email address is. Plus most of them just g...

Your right its a great game. Its too bad some of the design isn't so good so that are things which you have to keep doing and slows the game down. I really wish they add some of the extra features in the latter games(Spartan etc) so it plays better. If you get the patch you can increase the speed of...

Ok just an important question!!!!! I am not a Star Wars obsessive person(as one that goes to Star Wars conventions) but I do enjoy the Star wars movies. The thing is, I quite like Episode I and II. Thats right I think they are good movies! What I don't understand is that from reviews and forum so ma...

Not sure what your reply meant exactly: he was in contact with a relative of the deseaced famous person whose money they allegedly stole and wanted to smuggle, and that they were threatening legal action. I have had quite a few spams and email from scammers asking for my credit card/Bank Info since ...

Ideas for a Sci-fi game
Hi there Those of you who read my posting titled 'Castaway please!!!' will know that we have been talking about Slitherine developing a Sci-fi based strategy game(as oppose to the current historical ones). I think it is a good time to pool togther some good ideas for what we have in mind now. Hopefu...

Absolutely, I love strategy game that are sci-fi. Historicaly is good but lets face it, Sci-fi allows so much room for imagination. You have have something that is quite new and unique, not necessary a 4X game but something no one has done before. Couldn't you release the game without any problem if...
