I already knew this! Well she had a connection.

Her last name name is Tepes which is Romanian. She shares a name with a prince of Walachia whose title comes from his father called the Dragon or his title= Son of the Dragon in English.

She shares a name with Prince Vlad Tepes III also known as Vlad the Impaler. Also known as Vlad Dracula (son of the Dragon) the basis of Bram Stoker's Classic book from which comes my user name. So that's how I got it that she's a vampire!

Dr. Abraham Van Helsing = Avanhelsing.

I read Dracula when I was very young.

I knew where your name stood for and might I suggest you look at my charactersheet and then look at the first line in the Character Background? I think that name should be a little familiar :P

No Ghandi would just skip to nuking the earth into a burnt glass. I learned that from the Civ games. Why the hell wouldn't they remove the glitch that makes him like that?! I should not say to myself "Well time to kill Ghandi before he kills me. " in a game...

its not a glitch actually. Ghandi is coded deliberately that way. His likelihood to nuke is the highest at 12 but he has the lowest nuking % out of all the civs.

that means that he won't nuke you if you don't screw with his shit. If you do though, don't expect just a simple war, he will bring the big guns right from the start xD

Uhh it's a bug. The devs kept it as a joke. This quote is from Kotaku:

In the original Civilization, it was because of a bug. Each leader in the game had an "aggression" rating, and Gandhi - to best reflect his real-world persona - was given the lowest score possible, a 1, so low that he'd rarely if ever go out of his way to declare war on someone.

Only, there was a problem. When a player adopted democracy in Civilization, their aggression would be automatically reduced by 2. Code being code, if Gandhi went democratic his aggression wouldn't go to -1, it looped back around to the ludicrously high figure of 255, making him as aggressive as a civilization could possibly be.

I only learned it after dear old Ghandi nuked my Capitol to high hell. So I researched why the hell Ghandi had nukes. He and Montezuma are such assholes.@Nightmare Bunny

I prefer the Total War games but I'm a mutant.

@Nightmare Bunny the Civ games are basically like a big board game. If you're into that then I would recommend Civ 5 for you although in my opinion the Civ games are not that fun. I dont mind turn based games but Civ has a really obvious Rock-Paper-Scissors combat system, which I hate.

I personally preffer the Paradox Grandstrategy games like Europa Universalis 4 and Victoria 2 because it gives me alot more freedom and the diplomacy and politics aspect are much better implemented. The combat can be quite annoying however as you will have to have the good graces of RNGesus on your side to win battles, though most of the time it works quite well...

There are differences! :|

A normal RTS is something like Starcraft or Command & Conquer.

A turn based strategy game is something like Chess or Civ (although Civ is more of a 4x then a TSG)

And then there are the Grand Strategy games like Europa Universalis and Hearts of Iron.

YOU GOT THAT OR DO I HAVE TO COME OVER AND MAKE YOU GET IT!?
