Story

It was a hot summers day in the small village of Staunton. My friend Matt and I thought we would take advantage of this brilliant whether however we decided to go cow herding, perhaps it wasn't such a good idea as we thought, so this is how it turned out. Now bare in mind this field is like a mile long in all directions, so if anything were to go wrong chances of an escape was slim. So we began herding the cows of 20+ they were big things some young bulls were amongst these cows. We eventually managed to herd the cows down to the other end of the field, one cow broke off from the rest of the cows, charged at Matt within a few seconds of the charge my friend gave out an EERRRRGGHH!!!! The cow turned away and went to join the others, my friend had ran quite a bit from the cow, i was stood there laughing.

so after like a minute after the cow had returned to the other cows, they were all gathered in the corner of this field, Matt yells out "Ross look behind you!!!" So I look behind me only noticing the cows walking around so turn back and he yells again "Over there" So I look again to notice the cows from the far right running towards me well as you can guess I yelled out certain few words as you could imagine, so I then high tailed it and ran. I swear i had never ran so fast probably because what was going through my mind was holy S?$T I'm going to die as the ten metre in width herd of cows was right on my tail at full speed chasing me across this field, i was like oh my god wheres the gate, i managed to run half the field in less than a few seconds, i wasn't sure whether to turn around and go EERRRGGH!!! Like Matt did but there was too many, all Matt was doing was laughing his head, no lie it would have been funny had it been recorded. Luckily the cows decided to brake off and I had the chance to stop and catch my breathe, then all of the cows and young bulls circled around me, I was thinking hmmmmm I'm done for it must have been my lucky day as they began to brake off and run their drinking thing, because i wanted to get my own back on the cows, so as they ran passed i stomped forward and went errggh!!! Suprise suprise the cows weren't to happy about that and did same back to me, they eventually all ran to the other side of the field leaving me with the opportunity to escape.

New Term Task

For this task i will talking about the Starwars Empire at War mod, Stargate Empire at war. Overall i think this game is very good and i will tell you why, no doubt there are many flaws in this game as there are in many others, i shall also speak about those.

What makes this game addictive is its 3D battlefields, just like its predecessors from Totalwar who created the best seller series, such as Medieval Totalwar and my all time favourite Rome Totalwar who majored in large scale 3D battles. As well as it being 3D you can have your battles take place in space or land, which do i think is more impressive i would have to say space battle on this game are far better, because there is so much more you can do. spawning system is so much easier, you just drag the unit icon from the unit area after it has been created and then drop it into the spawn area, which is good because you can only spawn your units where the fog of war has been lifted. there is a variety of units on both sides, with a variety of heros and normal units.

This is not the same for land battles it would appear so that they did spend as much time and attention, the buildings supply you with limited attributes there are limited upgrades and units, however the way in which to spawn your units is in a similar way. there is not much i can really say about the land battles as there is very little to it.

For Stargate fans such as myself this is a dream come true, being able to use this iconic units and making your own outcome provides many hours of fun and it has taken many hours off my life.

Another aspect of the game that makes it so addictive, is the galactic conquest. This game mode starts you off with a planet and a fleet and land invasion force, aim of the game to go around and conquer planets, againing resources and command points. As well as the 3D battles taking place in real time the campaign takes place in real time, so unlike Rome or Medieval Totalwar you don't take turns planning out your moves trying to predict your enemys forces, you have to adapt to the moment. When you engage an enemy force, you either have the choice in auto resolve it where the computer decides, or you can face your enemy in a real time battle where you decide the outcome depending on the actions you take.

There is one pinicle factor in which i do believe which could have been changed, which is to add more factions add more diversity to the game. Even though every game is different and how you play it maybe different but because there is a limit of only two factions, there is only an amount of times you can use the same units over and over again before eventually it gets boring.

Even though i have displayed the positives and negative about this game i do believe the positives do out weigh the negatives. So in my opinion i believe this to be a good game, a very good game indeed.
