NWN2? Must be code for Medieval 2: Total War! \:D/ You know when the entire Squad drops this silly flying business and we all become mad strategy gamers in the Middle Ages. :D

I think I am itching about it also. We have a huge group picking up the game and will be hosting a server for NWN2. You should hook up with us when you have some time and play a little multiplayer.

I am really excited about NWN2... If they've improved on any of the "problems" with NWN, this game will be cooler than cool...

I still go back to NWN every now and then.

Snaphoo....Can't wait!

Hopefully people will go crazy with a community expansion pack like NWN1. I loved the rating system for the modules too. What a fantastic game.

OOH so we have some NWN heads around here. You guys should check here when you have a chance: http://www.ultimategamingforums.com/for ... .php?f=149" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

This is where all the action will be happening once the game releases later in the month.

Every once in a while I recieve a "reality check"- a small epiphany, if you will, of my geek-rating, and I am still somewhat STUNNED at what total geek/goth/fantasy dad's we have in this squad!! Yes, I know, I wore black in highschool too..(sigh) ~S~

I too feel vastly superior to you fantasy Dads 8)


The two years spent playing a Middle Earth roleplaying game with 2 Elve....<cough> friends every week doesn't count cause I wasn't a Dad then <only>and it wasn't using a computer :p .

Looked more like an accountants meeting, fekin papers everywhere.

Ok I did have some lead figures.



.....and I did paint them.

Just like Weird Al would say, "I'm so white and nerdy." ;)

I always figured us strategy guys were the coolest of the bunch. Still nerdy mind ya. Thank goodness for you RPG types. Stupid jocks.

The thing is, I do not have any problem with being a geek at all. Just look at people like Bill Gates. I think there is a new age of geekdhood. People with technical expertise who still have the ability to hang with the crowd at parties.

My wife always jokes what a closet geek I am, so much that some of my friends have no idea even.

Strangely enough I found, with my limited experience, that Europeans tend to have more pencil, paper and tabletop gamers than anywhere. It's has to be higher per capitia here. Heck there were TWO games workshops within walking distance of each other in Aberdeen. Maybe it's just that I live in the maritimes anyway.
