I think they already made a statement on how the Tyranid weren't really feasible for the current game mechanics, but who know, they might change thier minds....

But.... I doubt it.

I know. That's why DoW will just remain the best RTS ever.

And there's always the distant hope that somehow they could pull it off.

Yeah, but still. Personally I'm still looking forward to the Sisters of Battle Mod that seems to have dissappeared. Now that REALLY looked sweet.

Well, he's not the CHOSEN chosen, and as such isn't exactly a legend per se, he's a humorous footnote to a legend.

Legends in MTG arn't always exactly legendary. They're just unique. Like, in "Kamigawa", the emperor dude's dog was legendary. It was a dog. I doubt it was in any legends. It was just unique. Like Zelos is unique, so he would be "Legendary", not matter how important he himself was.

But he isn't unique. He's a clone of Kratos is abilities, a clone of Cholette in fame, and a steriotype in personality.

Who in that game isn't a stereotype in personality?

And technically, no, he's not a clone of Kratos. He attacks faster, and doesn't get Judgement. At least, in the english version. But it's easier to chain an infinite combo with him than with Kratos. That being said, he's still got a name, and he's the only one with that name, so he's unique. So in M:TG, he'd be "Legendary".

It was mostly an observation, as Zelos is a character in a game, and usually named characters are legendary.

It would also allow his mana cost to be lowered by 1 since legendaries are a risk and multipules can't be used at one time.

I'd love to change it, but my Magic Set Editor is on my other computer.

... You know, there are significantly more Wolverine levels than Nightcrawler or Iceman levels in Acts I and III.

Act I begins with a Wolverine level. Then an Iceman level. Then two Nightcrawler levels, then four more Wolverine levels with two optional Nightcrawler levels.

Act II has a fuckton of levels for each character, set up in separate paths. I like this plan.

Act III has an Iceman level, a Nightcrawler level, and two Wolverine levels. One of which I can only assume is whoever the endboss is. My money's on it being Stryker.

The legends are characters from the books mostly at least I would say more than 50% of legends are atleast mentioned in the books as a major power. Issamaru was in the books quite a bit, even fought against a goblin horde, all of the named characters in an RPG would likely be legendary, the non legendary permanents would likely be random encounter monsters.

But... arn't you just agreeing with me? Jewthy's the one who keeps insisting he wouldn't be 'legendary'.

And I read the book. And if I remember correctly, it was the white dragon that wound up finishing off the goblin horde or somesuch, though already mortally wounded by the uber-kami thing. I would doubt there wound up being any legends about the dog.

Issamaru showed up first, followed by Yosei.

Edit : We did agree but the reason you agreed missed the point.

I'm not sure whether this is more appropriate for this thread or the anime thread, so I'll post it in both.

Remember when I said the Chozo created the Metroids? Well they did! I was canonically right, and I didn't know it! Go me!

Sorry, good piece of errata there, and why should I pass up a chance to gloat anyways?

And most likely the reason that Samus's already-part-CHozo body accepted the Metroid DNA.
