ROBANN_88 08/06/18 4:16:16 PM #47 | Darkman124 posted... in the first film i thought it was arwen who summoned the river spirits to drive away the nazgul (a change, the books had elrond do it as he wore the ring of air) wasn't it Tom Bombadill in the books? i'm sure he had something to do with the force of the rivers --- |

I was incredibly pissed off when I got a game-ending bug in Enemy Within on the 360. Because of it, I'll probably never turn on Ironman again. Even now that I have XCOM 2 on PC I'd be hesitant to enable Ironman. yeah. but when you have problems with gamebreaking bugs as you said, then i feel you have every right to deal with it like that. --- |

Because of it, I'll probably never turn on Ironman again. Even now that I have XCOM 2 on PC I'd be hesitant to enable Ironman. so, what makes Ironman is the fact that there's only one save that gets saved over every time. but on PC, this can be circumvented by simply opening the gamefiles, going to Saves, and just copy and paste it somewhere else. that way you can have a backup save. so if the game breaks (or you're just not happy with the results of some moves), just delete the save in the gamefiles, and paste the copy. --- |

"guarantee that it's worth way less than the whole thing intact." if that's all they wanted, they would have just gone to some random schmuck somewhere, not taken the crown jewels. the risk vs reward isn't worth it if they are just gonna melt it down. --- |

ROBANN_88 posted...apple1986 posted...This was either commissioned by a very wealthy collector who wants them for an illegal private collection, or, they've already been melted down. it's not just "how many grams" it's also about purity, i don't know if age plays a factor. the beads, crystals and pearls can theoretically just be picked off and sold individauly for probably a pretty penny. but without knowing the exact makeup of the gold, whether it's 100% or just an alloy on top of other metals, or if it's all mixed together, it's impossible to predict the scrap metal value, but i can guarantee that it's worth way less than the whole thing intact. --- |

Bismarck is pretty much the driving factor in how Germany united. while all i see from Trump is divisions, both within the nation and by annoying other nations. --- |

ROBANN_88 07/26/18 6:09:48 PM #19 | Dash_Harber posted... I think the Asari canonically run the risk of actually killing you. I'd probably risk it though. only Ardat-Yakshi Asari do that. and there are very few of those around, especially after what happened to them in the Reaper War. also, the fuck are the "Orion"? --- |
