A picture

Well I was playing around with GIMP and got this xD. My original plan was to have solid black eyes with a bit of gloss, but that didn't work. So I just played around and got this xD. Opinions?



Now on a totally different note, what do you peeps thing of having a banner making contest? I just want to know if people like the idea, if they do I'll start one.

I was thinking along the lines of one promotional banner for some movie. One banner of some favorite character from something. And lastly I was thinking of a Lego graphic for some organization (you would make it up.)

Each person could enter a max of three for each category, the top three in each win.

Thoughts?

Life has been busy.

It's fun being busy isn't it? Well sort of, occasionally it's fun to just kick back in a nice comfortable chair, crank up the music (Jazz right now) and post on different things. Hahaha...Okay fine maybe I do the kicking back part too much. But at least I got around to writing something on my blog instead of all the rp sites I am on. I was just looking at one of my least used accounts that I am still regularly active on. I have only rped with him 4 times on the whole and I have over 120 posts!!! Don't even ask about my main character :D.

Busy...Helped mom clean out the car today, swept most of the house, did laundry and managed to get outside for awhile xD.

This week I have also been doing TONS of research/writing/watching on star trek. Wow for those who like it check out the video bellow, pretty cool battle that was made by third parties. They put together ships from Babylon 5 and star trek. Amazing battle, though the very beginning makes no sense to me.

Well....

As the saying goes, Long time no see. Or in this case, long time no post.
Recently I've been busy with being sick and looking at cool pictures on the internet. Along with a few game clan matches and stuff like that. Oh! And school. xD

Anyway here are a few pictures.



This has to be one of my favorite elf pictures, it's just perfect for an avatar.



This one is just pure Kewl. (Except for the hair.)



I love this one. It captures the villainy of this character perfectly in that grin. For those who play the rpg game Oblivion he was based off of the vampire in the dark brotherhood.



And this one.....I dunno what to say. It's simply amazing. Up to date my favorite full size elf picture. (Digital art that is.)



Yet another one that gives meaning to the word cool.

Ah, I have many more pictures I would like to share. But if I did that where would my next post go? Hahahaha

Chess

Do you like Chess? It is probably one of my all time favorite games. You can tell a lot about a person by how they play chess, are they aggressive? Defensive, etc. Do they value there pieces or will they willingly sacrifice them for gain? All of these questions are just a few things you need to quickly find out in a game of chess to easily defeat your opponent.

Please vote on the new poll.

If you answer is "Yes, and I would like to play you." Then please tell me in a comment that you voted that one.

A few pictures from a game.

(And yes I know it's not very practical set up for in game, I was just having fun.)

Well I figured it was time I posted something so I went for pictures again! Make sure to vote in the poll on the right side. Hope you enjoy these pictures. And YAY! I have another follower. -.-








'Quel re, Saesa omentien lle.

My apologies.

My apologies for not having posted in some time. Still not having anything of interest to post at this time I'll jsut show you a few pictures.

Helms deep comp stomp hero strat.

Okay in this post I'll be telling you how to defeat two brutal AI's against you, the brave defender of the Helms Deep and the people of Rohan. First of all this strategy is for playing Men of the west faction in BMFE 2, though I imagine it would work with the other races.

The first thing you want to do is get Faramir with two battalions of archers right above the main gate (make sure you close the gate too). The computers with just walk around outside of your fortress and build up, maybe sending an occasional little attack party at your gate. Okay next step, build your custom hero and put him right outside of the gate. I would also highly suggest getting your archers fire arrows, this will help a lot. Then you just build more heroes until you have all of them right at the front gate. The computers will continually attack these troops outside of the fortress. while doing this they are under the destructive fire of your archers and Faramir from the wall.

Now just pay attention to those heroes and make sure they don't get killed, if one or two do don't sweat, your fine just revive them at your fortress. While your heroes are leveling up on all those kills you should be building up a calvary and a tight packed row of towers on the inside of the deeping wall. Once you feel that your army is big enough to defend the fortress without your heroes, do a hero charge. You will probably take down a huge amount of enemy troops and a few buildings while your at it. Once you have been forced to retreat your heroes or they have all been killed, building them up again and then repeat this maneuver, but this time do a raid on your enemies buildings with your calvary through the nice little back gate in the deeping wall. Be sure to retreat your calvary before they die. Please understand this is not suppose to be a suicidal calvary charge.

Now comes the fun part, by now you have done several charges into the enemy rank with your heroes and they are all high level. Take Theoden and put him with your calvary. Now, charge with your heroes and sweep the computers forces away as you back them up with your archers who you advance behind your heroes. once you have started a good advance with that force go over to the deeping wall and charge with your calvary. Most of the enemy forces will be over with your heroes leaving the western most enemies base fairly undefended. Utilizing Theodens special power that makes all surrounding calvary only take 10% of all damage, you should be able to either take out that base or severely cripple it. With the help of your main army you should then be able to take out both your opponents. If not just fall back and repeat these charges until the two brutal AIs are left crushed at your feet.

Another thing, if the computers decide to get ranged siege engines then all you need to do is put thee catapults at the deeping wall and two on the walls beside the main gate.

Hope this strategy works for you as well as for me. I will try to post some pictures of this in action later.

A few pictures.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from Battle For Middle Earth 2.
