    Forum and Site Issues

    Some people say the E in IE is for Exploder. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Been using Firefox for several years, rarely encounter problems. Greg.

    POTC download

    Too bad Bethesda or 1c did not put this out as a bundle or companion to COAS or AOP. It might move a few more copies. Or put it up on GamersGate. I did find a couple copies on the internet. So there is hope. Greg.

    Old IronSides

    The last one looks fine. The gun barrel of the Carronade is mounted on a slide. The slide sits atop of the (for lack of a better name) pivot table. The slide does not extend beyond the back of the table when the weapon is fully recoiled. So even in the original setup the guns should not...

    AMAZING! EMPIRE TOTAL WAR

    Been following their board for awhile. Supposedly there are suppose to be a couple methods of registration with the preferred being . . (cough)(low volume) steam (ducks head so as not to be hit by flying objects). I guess the game has been shipped but no-one is suppose to be able to activate...

    Q&A For East India Company

    Does indeed. Will have to wait and see. I am very interested in reading Kim's response. Although in the case of EIC the decision was made long ago. Now all I have to do is talk the wife out of 40 beans. Greg.

    Warship from seadogs

    Hello Peter, Thanks for the info. I will give it a shot. The first time I saw the Rose in Chicago in 1992. It was her shake down cruise after getting her coast guard certification as a sail training ship. She was rescued from the people of Rhode Island in 1984 by Kaye Williams and brought...

    AMAZING! EMPIRE TOTAL WAR

    I had read on the Empire board that some people in the US had pre-ordered the game from Best Buy. I do not know if Best Buy supports download-able software. I don't think so. I have played the demo. Steam be not my friend either, but it at least appears to work. Actually enjoyed the land...

    Q&A For East India Company

    According to one of the posts on the Lighthouse forum Amazon will be shipping the game March 5th. Just about the time you get your answers posted. Should tie in nicely with the release. Cheers. Greg.

    Re-worked Privateer

    I vote for the left one as well. Part of the function of the spanker was to offset the forces applied by the head sails. With the rig balanced you need little rudder input to stay on course. Every little bit of rudder input needed to correct the ships course reduces the ships speed. Great...

    Q&A For East India Company

    The documentation alludes to the ability of small fleet actions. How are those handled? Do you fight the battle from the ships deck or an overfly mode? Do you shift control from ship to ship or do you give orders and hope the AI complies? During sea battles does the user get to board enemy...

    First Article for EIC - Ship List

    I have been watching that game ever since I first say it mentioned on this site. Good Job. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":buds" border="0" alt="buds.gif" /> I have been trying to bang the drum for them. <img...

    First Article for EIC - Ship List

    You may want to check the EIC game site. I think you have the cutter attributes somewhat off. Also there is info there about the Brig and Flute. I too am one of those people with their positive attitude hats on with regard to the upcoming release of EIC and the health of its publisher. <img...

    East India publisher in trouble

    There was an article on the "Buccaneer, The Pursuit of Infamy" news page which talked about the partnership between Blitz Game Studios and Stickman studio for the purpose of helping Stickman getting their game released. I do not know if this would even be an option. I just putting it forth as...

    East India publisher in trouble

    This may be a bit naive on my part, but if everything does go down the loo at lighthouse, maybe the people doing EIC can take a page out of the Buccaneer Book. There was a article about their pulisher trying to help indie devs bring the wares to the market. Just an Idea. Greg.
