RTS = Real Time Strategy
RPG = Role Playing Game

Think of the game as a mix of Warcraft III and Neverwinter Nights.

Ooohhhhh. I've not playeded Warcraft III but I really liked NWN. But judging from the screenshots it looks like a 3D-immersive. Warcraft (well, at least WC I) was 2d with tiny, tiny characters - mind you I've not bothered with the other WCs.
Hhmmmm I think I'll buy it preplayed - won't have to wait too long for it to be on eBay, they're on there pretty dammed quickly.

Don't know anything about this game you're talking about, but Warcraft 3 is Great. It's 3D, Has A great story, COOL grafx, RPG things, and a lot of other things. Everyone should try it.

Lol. Very good Korplem
Talking about Wasracraft III, there's a guy advertising it (and several other games) on New Zealand's auction site - 'TradeMe' - and he always finishes off his games listing with; "New imported: The game is in english comes with jewel case, cover and cdkey (if needed). manual and box are excluded as it's not in english."
Now, forgive me if I'm being a tad suspicious here, but does this sound like a pirate job to you? I mean, we all know the manuals and boxes ARE in English. He's FLOODING TradeMe with these dammed things, ranging in price from $5 - $45. Any suggestions as to what I can do?

When (or should I say IF ) I get my Gaming PC back I'm intending to play LH, but what's the technical problem you're having Guybrush? Isn't it fixable with a patch? Perhaps it's not a bug and patchable - do tell!

Well...it has two plays modes: RTS and RPG, but from what I gather the RTS mode is the true 'heart' of the game and there's a shortish RPG mode - but I haven't had the chance to try it yet.

I had a technical problem with lionheart.

I was unable to continue the game. My last save was weeksand levels before.

I completed a quest before I became a knight templar. When the knight templar gave me the quest, I was unable to complete it obviously. Game over.
The only advice I got on the interplay forums is to not be a knight templar lol because they have a few ways to break their quests.

No big deal I suppose with the knowledge beforehand. But I pretty much quit in disgust. For a while at least.
Also I was ready to leave the barcelona area and surroundings which everyone says was the best part anyway so not a huge incentive.

The bug I have is sometimes I get a black out screen that doesn't let you leave the screen....shows a dim view of my char basically trapping me. I tried reloading to an earlier save but apparently it didn't help and the black out still occured. I restarted and made a new char and got as far as monteillou. I still get kicked to desk top every so often. Yes I have the patch and it didn't fix everything. Yea...

OOhhhh Ok. Thanx for that. I've not started it yet, so think I'll wait until the problems have been solved.

Play GTA: Vice City!
Play the "role" of Italian thug to Mafioso Tommy Vercetti. I have a sudden craving for lasagna now... everytime I play that game I have Italian food cravings big time. But it's a fun game, just makes me hungry for a pizza or somthing *licks lips*
I guess I got a little too much into that role.. ah, forgetta bout it!

GTA: Vice city's good, yet it's not an RPG. It's Action\driving, and this is an RPG forum...

Bleh....I've never read anything in the Greyhawk universe. I kinda like to get a feel of what I'm playing and like to know a little about the games universe and understand various factors and not just sitting there confused.
