Any Steampunk games out there (RPG/Strategy/FPS)...all I know of is one browser based one, which I couldn't get into. And there is Arcanum, released back in 2001. Which is a RPG with a HUGE world.

Any other ones? Any rts/strategy ones? Even player-made mods that are Steampunk? Don't hear about Steampunk games very often.

Thanks :)

So, I made a new Youtube channel for music (though not anywhere near my main focus) and nature/outdoors related stuff. I don't have actual recordings, but my first video is nature pictures I put in as a slideshow. Took them with my cellphone (it has a 1.3 megapixel camera) and the other one is clasical piano music, if you are into that genre. If you are, its pretty relaxing. Thought I would share it with you guys (and gals) and see what you think of them :) In later videos, I'll have actual video, not just pictures and what not. I have a camera that takes better quality pictures, and it can take up to 720p quality videos, that I'll use for future stuff.

Thanks for any feedback :) and yes clasical is purposely spelled wrong, since the forums don't allow the full version of the word for some reason.

nothing beats Smurfs, Looney Tunes, Donald Duck, Tom and Jerry, Flintstones, Jetsons...and all the other old cartoons

I'm 21 and still like them...those are awesome classics

FRAPs does this. There is an option to see what your frame rate is in game. Plus lets you record videos and/or take screenshots as well.

I voted for Baldur's Gate...that game is/was awesome :D I still play once in a while

I would definitely go with Steam, for the reasons the poster above me said. And can't go wrong with awesome deals that Steam has all the time :D

What would you want to see in a Total War video? Reason I ask is, because I am going to be doing videos of Rome Total War (what you would want to see doesn't have to specifically be related to RTW though), where I interact with my viewers, and have them decide how I play the campaign. If you want to know more, you can see my blog post in my description

Do you have any particular Total War videos that you like?

Also, what have some of your epic moments been in Total War? Could be something like the enemy outnumbering you 2 to 1, and you won, or epicly lost...anything really.

One of my moments was actually recent (playing Rome Total War). I attacked (I should have waited till I was stronger) an enemy city. Well I conquered it. But a few turns later, the enemy is at my newly conquered city's doorstep...I had about a 1000 men defending it, and they had over 2000. They had a bunch of phalanx troops under their command, some mercenaries, a couple ranged troops, some guys using axes, spearmen and two generals. I had a few phalanx troops, a few archer troops and two generals. Well, strategic placing of all my troops at the beginning, my phalanx ended up holding their own for quite a while. But the enemy had finally broken through my main defense. Well, they rushed toward my city center, and I used the remaining troops I had (which consisted of 3 phalanx troops, one that only had 30 or so men left), and held my ground by surrounding them with my troops. My ranged had long gone out of arrows, and they too rushed the enemy. I used my one general to keep inspiring my troops (which helps A LOT in battle)...my phalanx were able to hold their ground, and the enemy routed. I lost a lot of men (more than half my army), but the enemy took a larger defeat. Phalanx troops are great in narrow spaces, which probably using that advantage won. But it sure was exciting and adrenaline pumping. I thought I was for sure going to lose. I soon made peace, which my diplomat succeeded, and they backed off their attacks. Thats where I left off last.

This was using Europa Barbarorum mod, and I'm playing as Baktria. The enemy being a very large nation, Arche Seleukeia. Though they focus on their western front (huge battles between them and Egypt, plus some Europe factions), they don't bother too much with their eastern front, which is lucky for me.

So, whats your epic stories in Total War? Could be any Total War game.
