No, I'll admit I didn't put massive thought into the name.

... I really need to talk/discuss the plot of my game with someone.
Anyone i can PM?
Remember, even though the basis of the game is "a part of WH40K in Equestria", there are a few others worlds, or rather beings from other worlds, that has crossed into it, so you can't be squemish about it, if i'm to discuss with you ...
Was once trying to make a 2D action-strategy scroller based on a mix of WH40K & MLP FiM .... but is no longer.

Looks really good, i almost want to add him to my game, but i have no idea how ... and it might also result in adding another war-world to the mix ... which might be too much.

She actually Is the mostly likely one I would draw next, as her and Irusk are the two casters I'm starting off with. I dream of commissioning UC77 to draw me a couple scenes of pony Warcasters standing over some pony troopers with a big Warjack behind em to use as a new cover for my Forces books.

Guess who just had to format their computer? Now guess who lost all progress on the codex. Now guess who isn't happy.

Heh. Just had to reinstall Windows myself. Got this popup whenever I logged in when connected to the internet that covered my entire screen (no window) and disabled Task Manager that claimed to be the FBI, which said it was going to fine me $100,000 for having malware on my computer, and that, to avoid this fine and jailtime, I should use GreenDot to pay a certain amount of money to the 'specified code'.
Between that and the blatant misspellings, it was pretty obviously a ruse.

My Parents computer got that, just with West Yorkshire Police Force instead of the FBI and claiming it was child pornography on the PC and to pay them a fine or they press charges.
Anyone stupid enough to believe that the police just send you a message asking you to pay a fine for having child porn deserves to get scammed. Not to mention that we live on the South Coast so why would it be West Yorkshire police force? Silly scammers.
Can't remember how they got rid of it, I think my dad booted the PC up in safe mode which blocked the virus from activating (the screen you see is actually just a fullscreen video with a trigger linked to start up, but of course safe mode asks if you want to run any extra programs when it loads windows up) then hunted down the virus in the registry and deleted the movie files it used from the computer. Annoying but slightly better than completely re-installing everything.

Yeah. I'd have tried that, except honestly, I was getting sick of manually hunting down virii. I used to have to do that all the time. So I said, screw it, I've got the disc- REINSTALL.
Heck, for a while I went Ubuntu, just to not have to worry about that stuff. The lack of games got to me, though.
But I realized I just lost all my Minecraft stuff- I was stupid enough to forget to backup everything, and the Windows.old doesn't have any of it in there. So 2-3 Minecraft worlds, (one of which was Technic) about a month's worth of writing, and a bunch of other stuff just got flushed. Thing was just so dang annoying, though.
Why couldn't it have been a Pony virus?

I know that feeling. Nice knowing you Awesomefort and BitchworldX5000. Not to mention my DE novel and the codex...

When my friend fixed my computer for me instead of using my base level copy of Windows he gave me a hacked version of the top level Windows. When I ran some updates here a couple months later, windows realized it was hacked and now complains about it constantly. So now I have to either fork out $200 for the key to this version of Windows, or reinstall my lower level. I've not decided which I want to do yet.

**computing student speaking** it is better for you if you instal the lower level version of windows because there is verry little differance between home premium and ultimate in termes of tools and pre instaled software. the lower versions of windows support less ram but unless you have something like 32GB of ram it shouldnt realy matter to you, i actualy recomend home premium to most people who ask as it is all the operating system you will ever need.
windows 7 is vastly superior to XP because XP will no longer be receiving updates and that will hurt its security, also software makers are stopping to support it so its not a good option atall
