    Post war Canada

    In FO2 they say Deathclaws come from iguanas. The doctor in Vault 13, Joseph, says: Which is misleading, really. IRL there is no "Jackson's Iguana". There is a Jackson's Chameleon, though. Apparently the "iguana" bit is used as an alternate name in the game- or, equally likely (given the...

    Scariest Fallout critter

    To answer this, I have to paraphrase someone. Someone doing an impression. An impression of Christopher Walken. :P "Centaurs never scared me. ... Deathclaws scare me. ... Because they're fast." Here is the original audio, for those who are interested. ;) Okay, maybe I didn't have to...

    History of NMA

    I got the FO/FO2 bundle from my little brother as a present back in 2005, I think it was. I was instantly hooked- I must've devoted a good 200 hours to playing them in the first month, lol. That dropped off a bit with time, but I still played a bit every day for a long time. Then my PC crashed...

    It`s Miroslav time! And a pic from you too!

    LOL, that's not even the worst I've ever done to myself. If I'd had a digital camera about fifteen years ago you could have been looking at the burn I got the day I was casting a guard for a sword and the mold cracked. Liquid bronze right down the front of my leg, left some nice burns. I had to...

    Wild Talents stats for Fallout?

    Alright. I'll dig around today and see what I can find. I know I backed up most of it on Cd, it's just finding the right CD. I've moved three or four times since then, god only knows where it could be. (And then there's the fact I fail epic-style at remembering to label my back-up discs...

    Wild Talents stats for Fallout?

    Hmm... I've not played Wild Talents. A few years ago, just before/when/after Gluttoncreeper released their Fallout-based PnP, some people around here were working on something in d20 system that wasn't too bad. It pretty much fell by the wayside when Rosh took a walk from NMA, though. I...

    Martial Arts

    You got the idea, almost. Try switching it backwards- not ones taken from you, ones you've taken. Not something I'm proud of, but I don't hide from my past, either. Survival often isn't pretty. If I could leave, I would. I was gone for a few years, but I've got some serious family business...

    It`s Miroslav time! And a pic from you too!

    I was having a bad day, one of those days where it's just one thing gone wrong after another. I got pissed while arguing on the phone with my ex about getting my son for the weekend (or not getting him, since she got her way yet again- the dirty twat :evil: ) and I slammed a ceramic coffee mug...

    The Enclave and Vault City

    Heh... I think that even if they DID want to make all nicey-nice with Vault City (for whatever reason and for however long) five minutes with that bitch Lynette would have them busting out a nuke to shove someplace close to the stick up that woman's ass. (I always make a point of locking her...

    What does the EC in "2mm EC" ammo stand for?

    I'm going with Electromagentic Cartridge or Electromagentic Coil. Gauss is a unit of measure for electromagnetic energy, and has been since before the Fallout timeline was supposed to have split from reality ("sometime after World War II" was I think how it was put by the developers). Anyone...

    Martial Arts

    Amen to that, mate. No matter who you are, how skilled you are at talking your way out of things, there are some times where it's just unavoidable. I mean, where I live is a pretty damn peaceful place, all told, but I've managed to get pretty messed up several times in the last couple years...

    Martial Arts

    I would have to agree with the people who have commented in favor of Krav Maga. It's a down-and-dirty, no-nonsense form that doesn't give a damn about looking pretty. It strips away a lot of what I dislike about the older, more common forms, mainly the attitude that x attack has to be met with y...

    Introduce yourself! AKA the "Say hello" thread

    Figured I might as well throw a 'hello' in here, considering I've been gone for... What? Nearly two years? I was fairly active when I was here before, but a few little things came up that kind of stopped that. A few little things like a marriage, having a kid, getting divorced, changing jobs...

    It`s Miroslav time! And a pic from you too!

    My dumb ass in front of the camera for once... And some recent proof of my dumbassness... (sharp stuff + finger = ouch!)

    "... or Equivalent"

    What's odd is that I've NEVER seen that before. Not on a government document like that. (It was from the state census bereau.) It's just kind of shocking that people are getting so P-C these days. Man, if the people who write those things are so afraid to offend people, they shouldn't get...

    "... or Equivalent"

    So, I open the mailbox, take out a massive pile of stuff, and head in the house. As I'm walking, I'm sorting it all into piles. "Mine, mine, hers, mine, hers, junk, junk, junk, ads, junk..." I hustle inside, eager to get out of the balmy 3F windchill, and as soon as the warm air hits me I...

    Fallout most downloaded torrent of 2006

    Actually, the numbers may not be as far off as some of you think. I'm just guessing from the posts, but most of you probably don't use Limewire. I used to (before it started getting glitchy as all hell and pissed me off), and I'd say about one of six downloads I got from there were just...

    Pass the hat, boys...

    This just came up on Yahoo news: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070109/od_nm/island_dc I've always wanted to have my own private country. Just think, no taxes! Of course, seeing as how the "country" is only the size of a large house, it wouldn't mean much, but, hey- at least it'd be...

    Ideas for Fallout 2 modding

    MIB88 wrote: They could have some use, surely. Maybe you could sell them at the chop shop the same way you can sell NPC's as slaves? Or trade them in for a lower price on a new vehicle? Or perhaps pulling in to certain towns in a certain vehicle would give you a better inital standing with...

    Tesla's 'Death Ray'

    Summary of this thread: Vox: I'm hijacking this thread to say:Big-ass nukes COULD be in FO3, I haven't found a reason they can't. Sander: There's nothing in FO canon that says they should be there, so they shouldn't. Vox: Bullshit! Sander: Bullshit on your Bullshit!! Vox...
