"something you are wearing prevents the use of both hands!"

How. Fucking. Tedious. Realism my fucking ass ke vin.

Welcome to DDA! Where all the good devs left and the rest of the devs are so bad it is all consuming!

I had a brief case in the other hand. It doesn't help that the character in question has a 12 strength. I was under the impression that a strength of 8 was supposed to be "average" for a real life human being.

I don't think anyone should be able to use a zweihander one handed. Your work was good, but now it's being used for tedious evil.
I mean, these guys aren't particularly muscly.

They do appear to be having a hard time though.

Exanima. The shining star of that game is the management arena mode where you hire/create fighters and walk them up through the ranks of gladiatorial combat to earn cash and for the enjoyment of Exanima's "unique" combat. The campaign is also good.

I recall and that the logic behind picking up items while having your hands full of shields also played into what they demanded of my coding. That is why you can't dual-wield shields or briefcases for example.

Still, I would've been perfectly happy to have them just be armor just covered the torso, head, and one arm/hand. Adding the mechanics behind shields as, well, SHIELDS was interesting, but a pain in the ass and leads to a lot of realism fuckery, as has been demonstrated. o3o

EDIT: Meanwhile in Dwarf Fortress...I've returned home. My deeds are now to be told, and I soon find all that remains is to hunt a mere giant bat. I swept across the continent, purging the undead-infested land of monsters, of dragons, of titans. I found faraway civilizations, wracked with war and brigandry, and forged peace single-handedly.

For the first adventure in ages, I am actually PLEASED, not bored, to have nothing more to do.

heads up that Tropico 4 is free over at Humble bundle's website for those interested, though it requires you link your steam account to the website.
EDIT: Additional info because I'm a bit forgetful of some things: It's free for about one day and 22 hours according to the timer on the site.

UnReal World made it into the guiness book of world records for "Longest update support for a game" setting the record at 24 years.
