[QUOTE="Bran Blackbyrd, post: 1031689, member: 1710"] A certain level of civilization? Trade caravan. There's your level of civilization. Use magic to make the carts float. What's the next logical step? Put covers over the carts or possibly armor it against attacks. What does that give you? That's right, exactly what we saw in that picture that everyone says is a "train". (btw Dismas, Right on!) It's all the smooth chocolatey taste of a seige cart combined with the peanut-buttery goodness of a merchant's supply wagons, now with the piquant seasoning of levitation magic. If you can't summon up enough imagination to explain why something train-like is hovering around in a high-magic medieval [b]fantasy[/b] world, then maybe chess is more your speed. The last time I checked, people who played RPGs had a little bit more imagination. This speculation is worse than useless and it looks totally infantile to the average on-looker. THIS is why geeks get such a bad rap for being so fanatical about stuff so trivial. It's a game for flumph's sake! One that has had less than 500 words of description released on it from a (at the very least) tertiary source. It won't be out for at least a year! If you want to fight tooth and nail go into politics and get something important accomplished with all of that bile. [/QUOTE]
