![]() Nymeria's 10,000, the ships that are supposed to save the Wildlings, the Battle of Blackwater etc. There are so many ship references within the books and many of them quite important. This really is part of the books that gets overlooked by a lot of people, bit hard for me reading them at sea :bawl: ![]() I don't know these are all mental images I've had, and I admit there's not much proof to back them up. The rowers seem to have been exposed to the elements, though. The Night's Watch's ships seem to be similar, though they definitely have a belowdeck section. Lyseni and Bravvosi galleys I picture as a small bireme or even a simple open deck with a single cabin. As it is, though, King Robert's Hammer was a damn big ship. If it didn't have a trireme design, it would be unrealistically long. If I recall correctly, King Robert's Hammer had three hundred oarsmen and a few catapult on board. ![]() Maybe a sort of trireme-esque ship, or a bireme with two levels of oars and a single square sail?ĭromonds I picture as triremes. Ironborn ships i've pictured similar to something like a Viking Longship, but I know there's contradictory evidence to that, such as Victarion Greyjoy having a cabin in which he keeps the dusky woman, or the fact that Euron's Silence was able to travel so far. Instead, they have contingents of bowmen. I always pictured Swan Ships as being very advanced, similar to a smaller version of a British Ship of the Line, though the Swan Ships would lack cannon, of course. I think the Swan Ships would have pretty expansive sails, but I can't say there's much description in the books. Are all Westerosi boats square rigged, or do they have more advanced riggings? Dromonds in particular are mystery for me.afaict, the term refers to roman or byzantine ships in real life, but the IaF Dromonds sound like something much more advanced.Īnyway, I'm sure that this is not a new suggestion, but I wanted to voice some enthusiasm for whatever is in store on the topic. ![]() I'm slightly perplexed by the tech level there are some ships with at least three masts, which sounds more baroque-era than medieval (I reiterate that I'm nautically challenged, so I may be way off base). Low-draft Greenblood houseboats, clinker-built Ironborn longships (with rams!), Summer Island swan-ships, Ibbenese whalers, cogs, carracks, and whalers, it would be neat to see what all of these vessels look like to those of us who are nautically challenged. The most likely thing to happen is Robert deciding on an invision while being dead-drunk, stubbornly preparing to do it for about a week, and then refrain from it anyway, but go hunting to make up for it.I realise this is pretty late to be making suggestions, and it's probably been considered, but it would be nice to see some illustrations and discussion comparing the many different types of ships that GRRM has sprinkled throughout the series. Although these would be competent rulers, the realm would break apart, and Robert would probably die at sea. The other option would be to screw his kingdom and leave his Hand in charge -be that Stannis, Jon Arryn, Ned Stark or Tywin Lannister. Apart from Renly & Loras, all would do so against their will, but might return succesfully nevertheless. Perhaps Stannis, Renly, Loras or even Jaime or Ned would lead an expedition. He would send someone else, and would not like it. ![]() He can't leave the throne for a campaign that might take years (and might kill him). Bob wanted to, but his small council talked him out of it.īut.what if Robert had gotten his way? What if he had invaded the Summer Islands? Everyone knows that Jalabhar Xho, Prince of the Red Flower Vale, wanted Robert to help him reclaim his princedom by invading the Summer Islands. ![]()

![]() ![]() And that's not bad.Įpisodes One and Two, well. Due to the lack of updated graphics is the only reason I didn't give this game an "Excellent" rating. Framerate was completely acceptable and I don't recall any lag. I never saw a graphical error such as a tear or texture issue. Better than some games worse than others. The graphics are just as good as the PC version. The game play is fantastic sometimes frenetic, the story is compelling and driving. ptuie I spit i'm so upset over that lousey garbage port job. If you've played FEAR on PS3 you know of an inferior port. Having played most of HL2 on the PC I can say the port over to the PS3 is superior quality as nothing was lost and and changes made were to compensate for a paddle controller which were executed exquisitly. I was also able to play both expansions: Episode One and Episode Two. I was finally able to finish the game on the PS3. I've played HL2 on the PC and made it 90% of the way through twice.HDD failures both times. (I've since moved onto other shooter titles on the PS3! Ye-ah I did it !) To the point where after the first level or two I had no problem at all moving and shooting to the point where I didn't even have to think about what I was doing. The controls are layed out and in practice work very well to make up for this difference. The problem with shooters on a console is lack of control or precision control and the inability to quickly survey your environment. You too can have fun on your PS3 very closely to the PC. I was skeptical about my ability to transition to a paddle controller on a shooter. Why you need to add The Orange Box to your library ![]() This compilation is one PlayStation release that every gamer may want as part of their collection. Each of the games on "Orange Box" is an amazing experience. For example, the Sniper uses long-range weapons while the Pyro prefers close combat with his flamethrower."Half Life 2: Orange Box" for the PS3 console provides over 60 hours of single-player gameplay on one disc. This game allows you to be part of numerous classes with each class offering different gameplay. The objective of most levels is to steal your enemy's flag and to return it to your base. This game sees two teams of gamers fighting against each other through more than eight different maps. "Team Fortress 2" is the complete opposite as it's a multiplayer first-person shooter. Each level is filled with tricky jumps, enemy turrets, and other environmental hazards. Armed only with a portal gun, you must survive each of these puzzles if you want to leave the facility alive. An evil robot mastermind named GLaDOS puts Chell through a series of grueling tests. It also introduces a handful of new settings to keep the action fresh."Portal" also made its debut in the "Orange Box." This title puts players in control of Chell, who is trapped in a facility. The open-world environment provides new locations to discover along with new enemies to fight. This title moves away from the linear environments of the previous games. "Half-Life: Episode Two" is exclusive to this collection of games. In this title, you'll leave City 17 and explore the surrounding areas as you continue your fight against the Combine. There is also significantly more platforming in this game. ![]() While the gameplay is still the same, some cooperative features were added. This title has won numerous awards over the years and is recognized in the industry as a classic game."Half-Life 2: Episode One" takes place directly after the previous game. Many of your favorite characters return from the "Half Life" game series, but not all of them are on your side. ![]() In addition to stopping enemies, you also use this gun to solve puzzles. This powerful weapon lets you pick up and throw anything in the environment. Eventually, Gordon finds the Gravity Gun. You use a variety of weapons in your adventure, ranging from crowbars to rocket launchers. Transported to the future, Gordon must stop an alien invasion of epic proportions. In "Half-Life 2," players once again take on the role of Gordon Freeman. The PS3 version of this collection was published by Electronic Arts and had a release date of December 11, 2007. The controls have been redesigned to work on the PS3 controller. In addition to three games from the "Half-Life" series, you also get "Portal" and "Team Fortress 2." Originally released for the PC, Valve has redone these games for home consoles. These titles range from first-person shooters to puzzle games. In "Half-Life 2: Orange Box" for the PlayStation 3, Valve collects five of its hottest titles on one disc. ![]() ![]() ![]() House of Velez draws inspiration from titles like Haunting Ground and even film such as the 1980's Hellraiser.

![]() ![]() ![]() As we’ve already discussed in this series, this effort generally causes Millicent readers to regard a submission as less professional - and often, it’s apparent in her first glance at the first page of a submission. Seriously, many aspiring writers clearly go out of their way to format their submissions to resemble published books, in the mistaken belief that this will make their work seem more professional. ![]() Why is it so very apparent, you ask? Because much of the time, submitting writers will work overtime to make it apparent. Why shouldn’t conference speakers take thirty seconds of their speaking gigs to pointing out, for instance, that the ways in which a professional manuscript does not resemble a published book - ways that are unfortunately quite obvious to an agent, editor, contest judge, etc., from practically the moment their bloodshot eyes light upon a submission? Yet surprisingly little conference time seems to be devoted to deviations from standard format for manuscripts. Like, say, the kind of major formatting snafu that a quick glance at that handy reference guide in my last post would lead a savvy submitter to avoid. Oh, not all by itself, generally speaking, unless the violation was truly egregious by industry standards, something along the lines of submitting unnumbered pages or not indenting paragraphs, for instance, the kind of faux pas that might actually cause Millicent to cast the entire submission aside unread. Yet, surprisingly often, aspiring writers overlook odd formatting as a possible reason that an otherwise well-written manuscript might have been rejected. As the clich?goes - and you’re keeping an eye out for those while you’re reading those pages the pro requested you send IN THEIR ENTIRETY, IN HARD COPY, and preferably OUT LOUD, right? Almost everyone that reads for a living twitches at the sight of a clich?– you get only one chance to make a first impression. Since it’s the first thing an agent, editor, or our old pal and nemesis, Millicent the agency screener, will see in your manuscript, it’s important to get it right. Given how detail-oriented he was - his characters can scarcely feel an emotion without the reader’s being treated to it from fourteen different levels of analysis - I’m sure he would also be proud that I am once again reverting to lengthy explanation mode about something as seemingly simple as a professionally-formatted title page. ![]() Why, yes, that it a rather long sentence, now that you mention it. Not so much from exhaustion (although that was an immense amount of practical how-to to cram into such a short space) as from the sense that, having at long last accomplished something that will please the folks that want to believe that no human enterprise cannot be successfully explained to everyone’s satisfaction in a single post - the searchers, in other words, rather than the habitual blog readers - I may return in good conscience to what I believe this blog does best, demonstrating thoughtfully how to avoid the many complex pitfalls that await the talented writer on the notoriously curvy road to publication. I have to admit, campers, that after my last post’s almost purely visual foray into the specifics of professional formatting for book manuscripts and proposals, a single-post summary for which many just-the-facts-ma’am-oriented writers have been clamoring for quite some time, I quite wilted. ![]() ![]() The reason behind this is that when they cook all the way through, it will make it easier to eat. You are going to want to leave them undone. When you place your meat and vegetables on the grill, you do not have to cook them like this. The best way to cook a shish kabob is by piling it up on top of a hot charcoal grill or gas grill, but not so high that it will fall off the skewer when placed on top. The meat and vegetables are going to need a little bit of time on this portion of the grill as well as some time for marinating. The next step is to get your charcoal grill or gas grill up to medium heat. After you have all of these ingredients prepared and ready, you are now ready to get cooking. You can also use carrots if they are small enough but they will take a while longer to cook. Next up is chopping up some mushrooms and tomatoes. When preparing shish kabobs, the first thing you should do is cut up some peppers and onions into large chunks so that they fit well on your skewers. When it comes to assembling your shish kabobs, you now need to prep your meat and vegetables for cooking. Step 2: Preparing your meat and vegetables ![]() The vegetables can be whole if you want to wrap them up in the meat or halved if you just want to add them in with the meat. Also, some mushrooms, peas, or beans are good to add there. You will want to have red and green peppers in there as well as onions and mushrooms. Next up are your vegetables which are also quite easy to choose. This gives you options when it comes time for dinner. To make shish kabobs you will want to get good cuts of either steak or chicken. The meat is going to be the easiest part of this process. When it comes to making shish kabobs, you are going to need two things, the meat of course, and the vegetables. Step-by-step guide: how to make shish kabobs this guide will give you details instructions on how to make shish kabobs Once your skewer is ready to be used, simply place the whole thing on top of a charcoal grill, or a gas grill over medium heat. Then you can either wrap the meat and vegetables in skewers or thread them on a long metal rod set into a shallow garden basket. There are things you can do, such as marinating the steak and vegetables, but one of the simplest is just to buy some nice cut of meat and vegetables, such as chicken or steak. When it comes to making shish kabobs, there are different ways to do it. The dish first has its origins in Turkey and has been around for centuries. Shish Kabob is one of the most popular dishes across the Middle East and North Africa. One of the best ways to enjoy this time is by cooking up some shish kabobs.

That way you can press F if you notice yourself falling to prevent all damage.Ĭheese the lighting system by printing lighted signs. Until you can get armor/Augments to assist with the issue, your best bet is to focus on unlocking Physics Field tech in the Tech Console. ![]() Mitigating fall damage is super important, but you won’t have very many options at the start, especially considering how dark FU is generally. That is not so much a recommendation as it is a fact. Roughly 99% of your deaths will be related to fall damage. Like when the background is full of lava, for example. You will still want to upgrade the latter over time though, as the Mining Laser burns through both normal and background blocks, which can be problematic in certain edge cases. It is better than Mining Picks, Mining Drills, and the best, most upgraded Matter Manipulator any day. Tungsten Ore is an especially vital part of early-game progression, and the starter planet probably doesn’t have any. Complete the required quests first, but try to get to a different Lush or whatever planet when you can. This will likely be fatal to you at the start of the game, so construct your ship from the other side of a wall first. Just note that “loose” items/blocks fall to the bottom of the screen, and walking onto a spot without background tiles puts you in an airless, zero-g environment. Despite floating in deep space, you are free to destroy the walls and background tiles of your ship at any time there are no decompression mechanics in Starbound. Incidentally, you can construct your dream ship out of any materials lying around. This allows you to skip a huge block of vanilla Starbound progression and immediately construct a ship of your dreams. When it asks whether you want the default ship or the Build Your Own Ship (BYOS) option, choose BYOS.
