Hey everyone. I’ve been gone for a while. What’s up? I got a few recent upsets, having to drive days at a time to visit far away due to a death in the family…it’s been tough.

Still keeping on, though. Working on redrafting my book and playing lots of Rome and Medieval Total War. How’s the old guard doing?

And YES Nick! I loved the sprite…[Read more]

Is this game out yet?

Sounds good to me.

More info from Urb on Discord:

There are no battles in Statecraft. It is throne room centric and the focus is on governing. Battles, RTS stuff is micro management left to be done by your knights.

[The queen] can basically act as any of the 5 castes.
So in war the queen can lead an army.
It’s pretty cool, if you are willing to risk her.

I’ve added a display for recently active members and friends activity to the sidebar. Any feedback is welcome.

And after a little bit of work, I have finished Operation Flâneur
It’s a short, a little bit scary and somewhat inspired by the style of Borges.
Set in one of my earliest stories, Operation Flâneur can be resumed in a single sentence.

There has to be something left.

1. This is good advice. The episode is undergoing a rewrite right now, actually.
2. Mm. Could be. I’ve gone ahead and fixed a little bit of that.
3. That part is not really central to the story, all the first bit is really for is to introduce Falcon more than the actual villain. Pretty sure I’m not going to explain EVERYTHING that happens, but…[Read more]

I took a look at your book. I remember opening that google link up a year or so ago.

I read several paragraphs. The story starts off nice with the conflict. My thing about the girl is, I want to know more about her hatred. I want to feel her hatred. I can’t connect to her. I understand her character though.

Another thing I…[Read more]

Guess what I’ve just come across, Lance…

I liked this place back when we had the dark forum with the soldier icons. But all things must move on, and all good things must come to an end. This site has made me laugh, cry, rage, and insult the heavens more than once. I’m happy it all happened.

Are there any plans to allow people to play these games after flash ends?

Also for some reason Lance’s most recent post hit me. I’ve been telling my friends about this site for years now, I always enjoyed these games. It’s unfortunate that people would rather play, for lack of a better phrase, “mindless” war games where they don’t have to think,…[Read more]

I remember thinking that 3 frenchies were better than 1 soldier, and using exclusively frenchies as soldiers for the longest of times.

Alas, things change in time. I just opened up Google and they say flash support will be discontinued December 2020, so basically in about 15 months.

The gaming trends have changed. I remember back when MnB2 came out, a lot of gaming was still “hard core”. Now it’s becoming more mainstream, at the expense of also becoming casual. (Oblivion was…[Read more]

one thing I can say is, We’ve had a good run. Hopefully people comeback and make the place noisy again. just like the good ol days. bersimon, val, Muffin, frenchy the rest of the old breed. 😥

I’ve gotten started with that Choose Your Own Adventure. It’s called Their Forgotten Story.

The plot isn’t too brilliant, but CYOA plots never are. Essentially you and your friend either defend your town from escaped characters or go inside stories to find out why they’re escaping.

Of course, there are going to be a lot of ways to die…but…[Read more]
