The Hive Is Alive!

[Angel Tarragon]

So I just got done watching Nick Fury: Agent of Shield. I've never read any of the SHIELD comics, but it was decent even though it is dated.

I was surfing Amazon some time ago and came across Kitty Pryde: Agent of Shield. Now if that were made a movie, that'd rock!

I've actually been playing a fair amount of NHL2k8 recently. I know, I know, seems weird, but I like the trading and drafting aspect of it as well as the fact that you can play for 20 minutes and be with a single match. It's not a game where you need to spend 2+ hours just going through plot stuff [not that I dislike those games, of course, but sometimes, I enjoy something a little different].

Settlers is a really, really old game which they keep making new version of, think the company making them is called Bluebyte. You basically control a small, medieval settlement that starts from scratch with a church, castle and a storage house. Then you gotta expand it, building grain farms, hunter's huts, wood choppers and a lot of other medieval stuff. Unlike AoE, most of the time is actually spent managing your various resources and expanding your settlement. You can find natural resources like iron and stone, as well as cattle or sheep. Fun thing about it is that you can literally see your people working, chopping wood, making sausages or bread, etc.

Of course, you can later start waging wars with a simple assortment of troops (swordsmen or bowmen) as well as a few siege engines.

Well... think about it this way.. if they start going nuts with "historical accuracy" it could end up as.. *shudder*.. the F-Game that is not to be mentioned.

Seriously, what game?! This has bugged me for the half hour now . What game are we talking about...

This I can totally dig.

Is this optional or does one have to build up an army anyway due to the possibility of an impending attack?

No, just curious about opinions. Never played it myself. Considering it as a buy.

.. Okay.. starts with a F, ends with and L, and has ATA in the middle and is never to be written or said aloud.

Yeah! Excellent game, always enjoyed the Age of Empires series (and to some extent Age of Legend and some of the other "Age of" games).

Well, on some maps you might get attack, one others its pure infrastructure thats the goal. Some maps you might have some barbarian villages who don't attack, but defend vital resources.
