Just wondering seeing as quite a few people seem to be playing now how many of you use the terraformation rules? And if you do, do you think it enhances the game? My group have played with the terraformation rules for a little while and would really recommend it ( although we do have a french speaker) i would also say try the scenarios.
I personally think the terraformation rules are pretty good, and really change the game. I only say this because i've seen a few lists on here that would work if you played terraformation and/or scenarios as there to low on numbers.
Well just thinking out loud, very pleased to see the game growing
Not yet, but I plan on doing. Plan to meet up with Hippie for a few games sometime.

If you choose a day then I`ll see about getting the day off of work. Can do it properly then. ;D
As a side note, the use of the word wuv means you can no longer class yourself as male. Please check in your man card at the door. ;D
Theres a PDF somewhere that Lapiaz printed off with the terrain pieces on it. It is for the Swamp location which is in Spanish but you'd still be able to use it for terrain as its all the right measurements
If your doing thursdays count me in too, would love to get a game in away from the shop. No annoying customers asking silly questions about helldo......oh dear.
not played since I've seen the scenarios or the terra rules, but what to try both.
thursday is good for me next week

You do realise that`ll never happen don`t you ? Even if you`re not working, people will think you are. ;D
LOL i just remembered im going on holiday on wednesday woops ::) how the hell i could forget that i dont know.
yeah so from the 21st may im back and willing to come up n play.
d'oh
What are people up for then ? Should I cancel my holiday request for the 15th and set it for the 22nd?
Gah! Bork, how could you!
yeah im missing the fanboy tourney aswell. gutted.
22nd is fine for me.
22nd sounds good to me
Right, have changed the day to the 22nd. Might give me time to paint the buggers*.
(*Not that that seems to take long anyway. Base, dip, done. ;D)
Damn you and your army painting antics, plus im getting a shirt printed saying "Piss off im annoyed enough at the dice I dont neeed your crap too! P.s I'm not working today...." Unless your around in which case dog "I love my dice today".
I keep meaning to get my T-shirt (http://www.pennyarcademerch.com/pat070131.html) but never get around to it.
As a side note, I think its best you don`t come to this next tournament. With you not being there my dice had a chance. With you in the same building they do tend to cower in fear.
This (http://archive.gamespy.com/comics/dorktower/archive.asp?nextform=viewcomic&id=1365) and the next few comics seem to sum up my relationship with dice. Sad eh?
Terraformation is great, after a few games you can't do without it any more (specially now that there are more scouts coming). We are already at the second draft stage of a full English translation, which prompts a question from me: since neither word exists in the English language, would you more say terraforming or terraformation?

Neither personally. They`re about making something more Earthlike. I`d just call it the terrain setup phase, but I`m funny like that.

Terrain setup sounds good to me. If everyone happy with it I will ask Geof to validate it as the English term to define this phase and will update my relative unofficial translation.
More generally this type of remark is exactly waht Geof is expecting from you, English speakers.
Currently working on translations, we fully appreciate our English is not perfect and that some expressions doesn't sound appropriate. All your remarks are most welcome as they help us to create proper documents you may easily use.

To be fair, I don`t think Terraformation is too bad. It keeps it distinctive rather than just being terrain setup. It is more than just that.
I`d vote to call it "Raising Hell" personally.
I like it Dog.
Damn no thumbs up smiley. I think I've been smiley spoilt by the ukcord
Raising Hell is nice, but may be misleading. Terrain setup on the other hand is not very exciting. I'm sure you guys can do better, something in the middle, exciting and descriptive at the same time...
to be honest terrain placement sound a bit boring .. terraformation a bit to Sci-fi . the term have nothing to imply that scout are your best friend for this phase ...
Hell reconnecince . Hellish scouting .. stuff like that would sound more apropiate IMHO
and yes Terrain rules are a most as they really bring the best of the companies in a stand off game .. even more in a campaing
how about infernal landscaping? :D
a bit to gardening ;D... nah! terraformation is still the best term
you know you could always call it"terrain setup or how to raise hell" if your looking for a chapter title for the book
if you want to name the phase/process itself how about "terrorformation" - a bit of a play on words
but i'd just as well be happy with calling it "chucking sceneryon the table or floor depending on what you play on, in a not totally random manner so you can play a rocking game" ;D
also what are these terraformation rules and where are they - i could be being silly and blind and braindead - but i can't find them for love nor money :)
