Haha, yes, I know.

So it is not getting delayed? It would be the first of the major RPG ish Kickstarter projects to come out.

My worry is that the game will be lacking in some areas due to the thin budget, since Denmark is an expensive country. But I will see since I backed this.

When?

LOL
You are mistaken if you think I'll willingly set foot in Denmark.

According to the guys when I spoke to them, they were on schedule. In fact (don't tell anybody), they were ready to go gold very soon. Still working hard as hell though. They'd actually made a couple of small, last-minute changes based on Codex criticism and Vault Dweller's LP, and they showed me the changes on screen in their tools.

Am I only one preferring VD to work on His game instead? Want to play AoD before the ITZ. Can't wait for the game even with all those anachronistic Wymyn Conquistadors.

 

[villain of the story]

Anachronistic? A good deal of the characters, women conquistadors included, are based on historical characters.

There's Maria Estrada, but who else?

And as I think we've mentioned before, they player doesn't have to play with female followers. It's entirely possible to play the game with an all-male crew, but we thought it would be interesting to provide the player with the option to play with a female crew.

Can you play this on a laptop with an Intel 3000HD?

 

[Commissar Draco]

If it is not forced down your throat can't really complain always was for real diversity and freedom of choice (with not Biowerian consequences)

 

[Avonaeon]

All it is, is a list of followers, and you can chose to bring whoever you want.

As for Intel 3000HD, I can't say as we don't really have the resources to test it on a lot of hardware. We have it running on a fairly shitty computer at the office though and an old mac laptop as well, so I think it's a fair bet that it will. How old would you say it is?

 

[Deakul]

10 year old pc with a single core cpu here, can I play it?

Anyone understand the whole barricade/defense concept? I'm a huge fan of building fortifications/defense and that immediately grabbed my interrest when I heard about it?

How much defense stuff can you use? when ? how?....

Look at the first combat video.

Also HOW much: No idea.

When: Before battle you might get a preparatory phase, then.

Barricades are like temporary cover. They give you a defense bonus.

Is that it? Just a bunch of crates that ''god'' drops before the battle? meh...

Suárez recognized the discouragement of the men and the extreme danger of the situation; she offered a suggestion. All day the seven caciques who were prisoners of the Spaniards, had been shouting encouragement to their people. Suárez proposed that Spaniards decapitate the seven and toss their heads out among the Indians in order to frighten them. There was some objection to the plan, since several men felt that the fall of the city was imminent and that the captive caciques would be their only bargaining advantage with the Indians. Suárez insisted that hers was the only viable solution to their problem. She then went to the house where the chieftains were guarded by Francisco Rubio and Hernando de la Torre and gave the order for the execution. Mariño de Lobera tells that the guard, La Torre, asked, "In what manner shall we kill them, my lady?" "In this manner," she replied, and, seizing la Torre’s sword, she herself cut off the heads
