I just got my ass kicked by Flonne and her prinnies in Makai Kingdom. I have a lot of levels to get in order to kill her.

Oh, most of the damage was done by prinnies in planes.

Oook.
(I never finished the first .hack. It just wasn't interesting enough. Plot was ok, but I play games for the gameplay first, plot second. If all I wanted was plot and cutscenes, I'd go hunt down the anime version of it.)

I'm allergic to quitting too, but after a while you hit the point of diminishing returns.

for me, that was shortly after picking up the stupid thing, and shortly before buying it.

Oook.
(Ouch. You should've just bought them one at a time as you completed each one. No point in buying a bunch of discs that'll just sit for a long time until you're ready for them.
I personally don't have much motivation to finish even the first one. There's too many other games I have that I've been meaning to beat; like KOTOR 2. If I tried to play every game that was moderately interesting, I would'nt have time to sleep.
I shouldn't probably just trade in my copy for the couple of bucks that it's worth...)

Huh.

I never really had any problems with viruscore hunting in Quarentine. Just jumped right in from beginnning to end.

Then again, I got about 20 hours of gametime just from the after-final boss fights in the first three so....

It's four I'm having the trouble with.. I loved the first two, little annoyed by having to hunt in third, but the fourth is just one protected area after the other...

I played the DoW: Winter Assault demo. The Imperial Guard are a HUGE departure from all the other factions it seems... Normally my preference is for an Infantry heavy army, but the IG Infantry are weak. I don't mean just regular weak, I mean WEAK weak. I mean, you can knock these guys over with bad breath.

However, to counter this, they have the only vehicular army I actually like. Normally my entire battle plan revolves around "Build up a Dreadnought/Infantry rush and blast everything". For the IG, my infantry really only provide a support role instead of a command role, with my main army really composed of various vehicular units.

Now if only I could build the Baneblade in the demo...

Played Maki Kingdom today. I beat Flonne and Etna with only 1 character above level 100 (and that char at about 105). Then after getting a 1 more character past 100 and a bunch to the upper 90's I beat Castille (Marona's friend in Phantom Brave, she get psyco burgandy- and joins after you beat her... but at lv 1).

I'll work on beating Laharl after I do some studying tomorow.

Don't let Laharl make wishes. Bad things will happen.

Hmmm really? Sounds like fun.

I've only got 1 character at 120, and only 1 other past 100, most my others that I use are 90s or 80s, so I have a while to go yet.

Normally my preference is for an Infantry heavy army, but the IG Infantry are weak. I don't mean just regular weak, I mean WEAK weak. I mean, you can knock these guys over with bad breath.

Early game its a bit like that, but your Guardsmen get really good, really quick. Your first order of business should be getting a few squads and attaching commissars to them. While you're doing this, build a tactica command and upgrade the morale and armour upgrades, and then give your Guardsmen grenade launchers. Hit tech level two early, and research the double damage for heavy weapons and incresed range on lasguns range upgrade and suddenly a Guardsmen squad with a Commissar or Priest attached becomes very, very scary. Quite regularly I've had them chew up and spit a Marine squad, and when you thrown in the fact they work well in large numbers.... yeah.

By Tech three you get Kasrkin. A couple of squads of these guys in the right place can stave off pretty much any infantry based assault. And then theres Ogryns. Which are plain absurd.

That said, their Infantry Anti-Vehicle capability sucks. I've wailed on a Whirlwind for a good twenty minutes with 4 Guardsmen Squads and 2 Kasrkins and the damnable thing still didn't want to die....

But then again you get the Leman Russ. Which is quite simply the best tank in the game. If you start spamming these things then you've more or less won....

Lasguns may just be glorified flashlights ("how do you twin-link a lasgun? put a laser sight on it!"), but there's just so goddamn MANY of them...

Ohhh, I like the sound of that. I can only get the demo (Still sold out... I didn't know this game was THIS popular...), so a lot of that isn't availible (The only upgrades I can get are to Morale). Somehow I forgot about the Kasrkin though, I think those are availible...

And Commisars. I can get 3 of them. And they are awsome. I love those crazy morale boosting, trooper executing bastards... "If you will not serve in the battle, then you will serve on the firing line!"

However, the IG hero, the Command Squad, is dissapointing as well. It's neat that he can use Special Troopers instead of regular troopers, but the special troops don't make a very effective army... Two commisars do not an army make...
