2nd year Spring and Hogswart was sieged. Aftermath with 1 dead and 2 downed colonists.
With no artillery, Hogswart skirmished the besiegers hoping to provoke an assault, but the attackers have an Arcane mage who teleported skirmishers towards him and gun them down.
Eventually the skirmishers provoked an assault and Hogwart's defenses prevailed.
Good news is the enemy mage and 2 mortars were captured making the next siege easier.

Doesn't Samuel R. Jackson have copyright on the purple ligthsabre?

Maybe.


afaik the movies were a bit behind in that regard.

if I'm not mistaken, this graphic novel cover was the first appearance of a purple lightsaber:
411full.jpg

that's the comic book with Lord Kaan and the war on Rusaan. although Darth Bane wields a purple lightsaber on the cover, the color is red in the comic book itself. nonetheless it became canon that Bane wielded a purple lightsaber, which could also be seen on the cover of this short story
latest

those two images appeared long before Episode 2, iirc.
I've also got two Darth Bane action figures standing around somewhere, a big one

and a small one

then came the Darth Bane novels sometime in the late 00s and it became canon that Bane is wielding a crooked dark red lightsaber ...

also funny to see how the evil guys in Dark Forces 2 have all kinds of different lightsaber colors and yet in the movies it's always the same boring blue/green and red.

______________________________________________

edit: I had forgotten what the name of the comic book was, but by looking up Lord Kaan on Wookiepedia I found it:
273337._SX360_QL80_TTD_.jpg
and here's the only scene in that comic when Bane has his lightsaber equipped:

Any recs for coffee break games or games I can have in the background of my work
computer and hop on now and then? I always go back to Universal Paperclips.

Desktop Dungeons, Into the Breach. Most Roguelikes are really good for this too as they're easy to jump in and out of at a moments notice. I'm currently liking Tangledeep, although I'm only a few hours in so can't majorly recommend. Dungeons of Dredmor and Tales of Maj'Eyal are solid as fuck

I've gotten some good mileage out of NetHack, which was easy to install my work computer and doesn't leave a huge footprint.

Hogwarts was raided by pirates 2 days after the siege. They have a paladin!

Level 4, finished Primm - decided I had enough of this shit 'loot worthless junk and sell it off to afford some cool gear' start - so I went straight to Lonesome Road to get free welfare items.

Sorry, MCA, this place looks good, but I don't feel like doing corridor shooting with zombies - I'm just here to pick up the freebies.

1800 caps just sitting there on the shelf for my Level 4 noob? Don't mind me! There's like 3 more Arc welders to grab in here. Be sure to grab all of them, have ED-E repair the worst once and use the weapon repair kits to restore them as best as you can. Arc Wielders are primary loot but there are Bowie knives and scout armor that are worth around 300-400 caps each too if you're willing to brave the battle droids. Circle strafe around with Arc Welder to win.

And there we go. Full Riot Gear - net profit 3000 caps.

At level 4.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Magic Carpet 2

One of the better sequel, which adds many new enemies with every spell having three levels of power is making a huge change compared to its predecessor. With the new underground and night levels, we have a shorter game, but the variety of tasks which will need to do makes it better. I advise to find all the secret passages, since we can gather experience scrolls that will level up our spells a lot faster. Otherwise, we need to use them to finally gain a next upgrade. I love the terrain changing ones, like a small volcano on lvl. 1 becomes a huge mountain spitting fire and rocks all around. Also, the Meteor, which becomes "nuke it from orbit" spell. Original had too many repetitive build castle -> destroy other mages routine. The new foes are really making it harder for us to survive, like the Cymmerians that don't die easily. Instead, they become tiny bugs that will attack our castle. Or little devils, which are usually in big packs, and have that annoying laugh that pisses you off. Hiding behind the rocks to avoid the gaze of the stone Sentinels, which can kill you in a couple of secons. Or behemoths of the netherworlds - dragons, leviathans and hydras. The battles with Hydras are the most exciting ones. They can take a lot of damage, and they are easily attracted to our castle. Killing them is the most satisfying thing that you can do, and you will pimp your castle with that precious mana of her.

The only problem, is that due to the Electronic Arts meddling, MC2 was rushed and has some problems with handling the DOS4GW and it can crash easily, when you choose the SVGA graphics. In low resolution it is less frequent. Just like with most of the Bullfrog titles, MC2 has a really very addictive gameplay and it is always fun to replay it from time to time.

I don't like what the Gun Runner's Arsenal did with this place. Used to be just a bunch of Rebar clubs (heavy, worth 100 caps each) and some laser pistols on the dead Bright ghouls. But GRA DLC added Plasma. And that's like 450 caps each. By the time you finished Novac, money is no longer a problem and you have Plasma rifles and sometimes Plasma Defenders.
