could the powers that be (or anybody else really)

(a) mirror it somewhere else (Google again?)
(b) put up the MD5/SHA1 hash so that the download can be checked?

thank you

Nvidia GeForce GT750M laptop?

Hi, can I check if anyone is running DoW2 on a laptop with the GT750M? Is it possible to run at max graphics with the 750M?

Re: New Faction

I agree that Dark Eldar would be something that has less hurdles to implement (I think I posted about this in another thread, with a proposal for a wierd "countdown" red scheme). I also can see a problem with "too many humans" (they're basically sort of overrepresented right now ...

That's all you were asking for. Also, "trying to stop Hillary" won't stop Congress from giving money to NASA or not. The two aren't even related, at least not at the moment. It isn't a campaign issue, and won't be made into one unless one of the candidates brings it up for some reason. Bu...

OK, I'm aware of this: No new factions, gotta fix what we've got so far. but as an early "throw it out there" - everybody talks about Tau or Dark Eldar as a new faction, but... why not Adeptus Mechanicus (anybody else proposed this already)? Skitarii units in T1, Legio Cybernetica in T2, a...

Re: Failure to start on Windows 8.1

The DX9.0c "web installer" will refuse to run if it detects any trace of a pre-existing DX9c installation (even if it's broken). To work around this, you can use the "full" installer which will just plunk everything down without caring (which is what you want to happen if it's no...

Re: What makes a good 3v3 (or 2v2) map?

Largely symmetrical. I actually think asymmetry is nice. Symmetry in a map is an easier way for "competition fairness" (I don't have the term for it), but I think it's often nice to have a situation where "ok these are the cards that life has handed you, you've just got to play them ...
