Clonus Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 So....if you do the city elf origin, does Leliana's prior encounter with the warden's mother ever come out? Does it impact Leli's romanceability with your warden? Or does this only come out in Leliana's song? There's no reason why it should. Mom never told Leliana the name of her child and never knew Leliana's name or what was going on with her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can utilize thermal images, so you can adjust the bend of the barrel to correct artillery.But, even by today's standards, with digital computers, passive nocturnal sight options and other high-tech implementations, it's the tank of the future.Crew: 4Overall Length: 8.050 mOverall Height: 2.980 mOverall Width: 3.960 m135mm smooth bore tank gun as main armament2000hp gas-turbine engine - SAT2000 Gas Turbine (a product of Omni Co.)Max.

That would make 1.5x a +1, 2x a +2, 3x +3, etc. Here's a comparison chart: Code: margin: 0px; padding: 6px; border: 1px inset; width: 640px; height: 194px; text-align: left; overflow: auto">Bonus x2 Progression Speed/Range Progression+1 x2 x1.5+2 x4 x2+3 x8 x3+4 x16 x5+5 x32 x7+6 x64 x10+7 x128 x15+8 x256 x20+9 x512 x30+10 x1024 x50 Using the Speed/Range progression would be basically the same as saying you divide the range by the magnification to find the effective range. In some ways, it's not a bad idea - but it leads to some really *big* bonuses for rather small magnifications. It also meshes really well with the way range modifiers work normally, but probably too much so - even with an extremely high-magnification scope it's still more difficult to hit something 100 yards away than it is to hit something ten yards away.

tkdguy Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 What I learned from watching foreign TV A few words in Swedish, Danish, and Italian, as well as some local customs. Police ranks in Italy, Sweden, and the UK. Australian police ranks are similar to those in the UK. Historical personnages such as Yoshitsune, Kondo Isami, Antoine de Sartine, Madame Pompadour, Cesare Mori, Giovanni Falcone, and Paolo Borsellino. Louis XV died from smallpox. There was a war between Sweden and Russia which ended around 1790. Iceland still uses patronymic surnames. In Denmark, the police state the time they make an arrest. They also take blood samples to test a suspect's DNA. There was a major crime ring in post-war Denmark, which was uncovered by newspaper reporters. A bridge connects Copenhagen and Malmo. Gotland is surrounded by the sea. Visby is a town in Gotland. Walpurgis Night is celebrated in Sweden. In Italy, the Mafia murdered policemen and judges even as late as the 1990s. Gubbio is a Medieval town that holds an annual "race" between teams carrying statues of saints. The results are always the same. France has investigating judges. Italy used to have them as well. Criminal trials in Germany can involve multiple judges. Several languages may be spoken in European shows, especially with an international cast. English is often spoken in Scandinavia when dealing with foreigners. Homosexuals are persecuted in Uganda. Some people in the government are pushing for the death penalty for being gay. (Edit: The law, passed in 2013, has dropped the death penalty for life in prison.) Duck is eaten at Christmas in Scandinavia and Iceland. In case of emergency, dial 999 in the UK and 112 in continental Europe. "Being put to the question" meant being interrogated via torture in pre-Revolutionary France. In Germany, the defendant's family has the right not to testify against them. Burial at sea is illegal in Brittany. Unlike the USA, France (and Italy) has a statute of limitations on murder. In Italy, paying a ransom to kidnappers is illegal. The penalty for murder in the UK was hanging until 1965. Homosexuality and attempted suicide were illegal in the UK during WWII. France does not have a Witness Protection Program. Nuns take on a new name upon entering a convent. Swedish and Danish cops can take advanced training courses in the USA once every 3 years. FRA = Försvarets radioanstal (National Defence Radio Establishment) - Signals intelligence bureau in Sweden LKA = Landeskriminalamt - German state police BND = Bundesnachrichtendienst (Federal Intelligence Service) - German intelligence agency French prosecutors can assign magistrates to a certain case. SAPO = Swedish security police OP5 = Swedish military intelligence "Koelle Alaaf!" is the standard greeting at the Cologne Carnival. Children in Germany carry lanterns and go house to house for candy on St. Martin's Day. Italian is widely spoken in Slovenia. Kosher food satisfies Halal requirements, although the reverse is not true. Italian judges use bells instead of gavels. Cyanide smells like sour marzipan or bitter almonds. French Communists during World War II didn't form a resistance movement until Germany invaded the USSR. Austrian Catholics pay a church tax. Takeda Shingen once had to defend himself from Uesugi Kenshin with a fan in one of their battles. The Shinsengumi defeated a group of political dissidents during the Ikeda-ya Affair.
