No, we keep in touch by E-Mail as well and have exchanged Happy Easter Greetings and yes, I know they are a day ahead.
Werner, Perhaps you can let us all know in advance if the day will be a good one or if we need a warning ...AHAHAHAAAAA :bl

Werner and Ken...I agree, we have a Good Team here and that makes all the difference.

.....BTW, did you guys know that Pessimists are the most likely to have a blood type of B-Negitive? :bl

We definitely need to have a Great Wonder that is accociated with Nuke Cola

... maybe a something like a franchise that adds a Cola Dispenser in every town

The Cola Dispenser would also be a city improvement ... that adds income and maybe happy/content faces.

Anyway have asked a question about the origin of this unique beverage on the Welcome New Members thread :AH

Fallouters could advise if it is specific to a certain civ or readily available to all ... which of course could alter the initial Great Wonder idea.

Added to that I'm sure it would also be dependent on a resource ... again Fallouters who know the recipe can advise :w

Just thinking that if there are no plans already ... add a Great Wonder based on Nuka Cola ... perhaps treat it as a franchise that added a Cola Dispenser in every city.

I'm still investigating this brave new world called Fallout ... and would suggest that it is available only to those civs that use it.

if only one civ ... then so be it ... the technology could be associated with a general Herbal Law knowledge. (again the Fallouters among us could fill in the gaps as to the recipe or origin of this beverage.)

A city improvement could be Cola Dispenser which adds income or happy/content effect.

I'm sure that it would also be dependent on the availability one or more resources.

If the origin is a mystery and not fleshed out ... let's do a Colonel Sanders on it.

Options ... Iguana, Green Goo, Radscorpion, Brahmin, Mutanted Corn.

Anyway this came about from some fun on the Greeting to New Members thread

EDIT ... Just found out that it is adictive ... niiice :bl ... I like it when there are also negatives attached ... makes you really think about the benefits of building things :AH

Having it as a Wonder would create a race ... those that miss out could still build individual Cola Dispensers in their cities.

War Hammer (sorry for constant reference) has a wonder called Bugmann's Brewery which is a franchise that creates a pub in every city. Less upkeep as well.

Ok, good suggestion, Great Wonder it will be. And a new building will be the Nuka Cola Machine. :bs Great job dude. :br

As for the Warhammer references I have no problems with that at all, if you see something that can be adapted for the mod, by all means suggest away. :bs

Regarding picture ... I started a new thread on the public forum inviting people to post pictures ... there is one that looks like an advert for coke ... very wholesome 50's feel ... perhaps that could be used.

Maybe we don't need a building as such either ... I also posted 2 different icons a gold and a dark bottle ... one perhaps for the wonder and the other to be used in the city build screen to indicate the dispencing machines.

Werner, yeah that was the pic I was thinking for the Wonder splash. I had always liked that one. One reason is on his collar, look closely at his collar pips. :w


And I like the idea of just the Nuka Cola bottle as the 'building' pic. Keep up the good suggestions dude. :bs

Gents I apoligize for derailing the thread. And as much as I love a good debate on time, I have to split the debate from the mod upgrades thread. I put it in the Mess hall. And by all means continue, VERY interesting. :bs

If a Generic Army graphic is going to be used ... each faction should have a small wonder (different names) which aid the promotion of armies in the field ... the Enclave's version could be called Medal of Honour.

if not an different army graphics will be used ... then have the small wonder (different names) which allow armies to be spawned.
New Reno Mobs could have their's called Secret Family Oath or Code ... or something similarly Mafioso.

Werner, it is intended for all civs to have their own army, and small wonder to activate them. :AH
