well Im hoping it sells good and they do more like it. That Menzoberranzan book was lore heavy as well and had some crunch in there too. The Realms was a big seller back in the 2e days, thats why I dont understand the 4e approach of just putting out a campaign setting but no other source books like they did in every other edition, I guess they felt there wasnt no money it, Im glad it seems theyve reversed that decision.

RISK Legacy is good.
I have to give HASBRO props for that.

And I own Battleship Galaxies.
Got it last year for Xmas... still in the box, haven't played it yet.

My brother is fond of Fantasy Flight games and owns a crap ton of them . As a matter of fact, we just got finished playing a couple of games of Mansions of Madness.

Tomorrow we are going to play Star Trek Fleet Captains, which is a really, really cool game. It isn't a FF game, but it's cool nonetheless.

I'm pretty sure Zachary has had that xbox for about 3 years...
Well, we got him a LIVE account, so I assume the xbox is "registered"...

I'll just have to call them and see.

Thanks Klirshon! You may have saved me my wife some loots!




 My brother does repairs for people (relatives, neighbors) on their 360's. The problem with the red ring is that Microsoft uses cheap thermal paste and, when the 360 heats up too much, the processor comes unglued from the motherboard. Easy solution to this is to get rid of the junk glue that they use and put some professional grade paste on there. It's about $10 for the good, silver stuff.

 And now you know!

Ummm...

Thermal paste isn't meant to stick things together. In other words, it's not a glue. Also, processors are not glued to the motherboard. 

And now you know.

Yep. Thermal paste is a grease that helps thermal conductivity. It does not stick 2 things together. It is however used to help heat flow from the CPU to the heat sink.

I'm not sure how the CPU is hooked up inside of a 360 but if its anything like any other computer made that has a CPU it should be that the pins on the CPU are placed into the CPU sockets on the motherboard and then mechanically locked into place. So yeah not glued.

 Nah, I usually double check the stuff I talk about so stuff like that doesn't happen. Like I said, it's my brother that does the 360 repair, not me, so I was going off of memory. I know the junk thermal paste that Microsoft uses it the main problem though, and you can get a cooler from gamestop for about $20. We've gone through 2-3 systems with various problems, the latest one being the disk drive crapping out.
