    Yup.

    But old Chuck made plenty of corpses before he became one himself!

    Blam!

    The man was a legend!

      that reminds me so much of a truly genius episode of south park about the war in iraq, and another brilliant quote, ahem, "the whole basis of the american ideal is that america can do what it likes whilst appearing not to want to do it, saying one thing and doing another"

        Kobayashi, I do not find the scenario offensive in the sense that I accept the idea that it is okay to have different views on political points.
        However, I must say that your picture of America's scheming government strategists guiding Hollywood and business executives to "displace the ethnic and cultural distinctiveness" of other peoples, is thorougly tasteless and bitterly disgusting.

              Atlas,

              think of it as a parody. The point is its so ludicrous that no one is expected to take it at face value, more like the opposite. You only do parodies on worthy subjects. DId you like Monthy Python and the Holy Grail or Johnny English? Anyway I take your point and I'll add a disclaimer at the start to say that even the inuendos are completely baseless.

              Smiley,

              the base game is actually up and running but I want to try the balance a bit first so it won't be a complete flop.

              My favourite site for sounds, Star Trek in Sound and Vision seems to be permanently dead. Does anyone know where else can I find Ferenggi dialogue?

                Will the USSR be in the game?

                Oh, as for balance, isn't it supposed to be unbalanced?

                  Balance refers to whether the AI can adapt to the strange parameters.

                    Wasn't Charles Brosincky(later changed to Bronson) a lithuanian?

                      You're right.

                      Chuck was from Europe.
