I love these inspirational quotes by Mother Teresa :
“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”
“Never travel faster than your guardian angel can fly.”
“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”
“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”

And these , from Maya Angelou :
"Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time!"
"Be a rainbow in someone else’s cloud."

And then there is Mark Twain ! :happyz: :
"Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint !"
"Never put off till tomorrow what may be done day after tomorrow just as well !"

Lastly :
Mark Twain : "An open mind leaves a chance for someone to drop a worthwhile thought in it ."
G.K.Chesterton : But “Do not be so open-minded that your brains fall out !”


( I might be clever enough to come up with a fantastic quote myself one day ... ,some day - -:thinkcyto: )

:fcspark::1993glimmer::fcspark: HOPE :fcspark::1993glimmer:
“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains,
Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while.
The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land,
and Hope returned to him.
For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him
that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing:
there was light and high beauty forever beyond its reach.”

Do I like this game ? I believe my hours shows I do ...
I`ve played it through 4 times ( writing this review) , - well, that`s a lot of course - , but for me ; Totally worth it.
And since you can put together your team(s) in so many ways, and give each character so many different roles - actually four times isn`t that much.
Did it take me 500 + hours to do that ? Nah. I tested out a lot of things , played it from a lot of angles, and I simply hated the idea of the game ending.
Why? :
Not because it is Xcom , or FF Tactics, or HoMM ( to mention some beloved titles for most TB fans ). It isn`t at all -
BUT it has the same feel to it , the same turn based relaxing - but at the same time challenging - Feeling. It makes me want to try it all, And there is a lot to try.

So. What will you get playing SoW ?
Probably everything a turn based tactics addict wants and love.
The story ? It`s ok , and it makes you want to know what happens next. Some people say the story isn`t important, but it is for me - or I personally would not be playing . I like the story, and I like the main characters . They were each given a unique personality ; I found that intriguing ! And there are romance !
A guy named "Cetiraliss" seems to have the most helpful review here on Steam , and I quote him , because he said it perfectly :
Quote :
"This game makes you think, especially on warlord mode . You have to plan not only your movements on the battlefield but your squads and their compositions (items, skills, etc.). There are a lot of possibilities so you can mix and match as you see fit, and also try things out in the arena."
Quote end.
I want to add ; This game has you think and is fun in every difficulty. I actually suggest you play it on the easiest at first , or at least the first 12 quests - a couple of quests can be rather challenging if you want all achievements .
Is there anything I don`t like ?
... No. Only that it ended .
I can hardly wait for the DLC !

:sirstar::mgh_17: ABOUT FAIRYTALES of all kinds, e.g.games :mgh_17::sirstar::mgh_17: :
I choose to quote Lynda Barry :
"I believe there is something in fairytales that does what singing does to words.
They have transformational capabilities, in the way melody can transform mood.
They can't transform your actual situation, but they can transform your experience of it.
We don't create a fantasy world to escape reality, we create it to be able to stay.
I believe we have always done this, used images~
to stand and understand what otherwise would be intolerable."

:chocolates_box: FACTS ABOUT CHOCOLATE , and THINGS YOU CAN LEARN FROM YOUR CAT :redtiger: :
( Obviously the choco facts first, since you need energy to learn stuff :kawa: ) ;

:chocolates_box: Chocolate is a Vegetable
~Chocolate is derived from cacao beans. Bean = vegetable. Sugar is derived from either sugar cane or sugar beets. Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.
To go one step further,
:chocolates_box: Chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.
:chocolates_box: Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.
:chocolates_box: If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands, you're eating it too slowly.
:chocolates_box: The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car.
~The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.
:chocolates_box: Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take the edge off your appetite, and you'll eat less.
:chocolates_box: If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolate to protect themselves. (We're testing this with other snack foods as well.)
:chocolates_box: If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that a balanced diet? Don't they actually counteract each other?
:chocolates_box: Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger. Therefore, you need to eat more chocolate.
:chocolates_box: Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today. That way, at least you'll get one thing done.
:chocolates_box: A nice box of chocolates can provide your total daily intake of calories in one place. Now, isn't that handy?
:chocolates_box: If you can't eat all your chocolate, it will keep in the freezer. But if you can't eat all your chocolate, what's wrong with you?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THINGS YOU CAN LEARN FROM YOUR CAT :winkkit: :

:CatStarla: Make the world your playground
:CoolCat: Whenever you miss the sandbox, cover it up. Dragging a sock over it helps
:starecat: If you can't get your way, lay across the keyboard till you do
:Emo_Cat: When hungry, meow loudly so they feed you just to shut you up
:nyaa: Always find a good patch of sun to nap in
:Marmalade: Nap often
:mrcat: When in trouble, just purr and look cute
:cattongue: Curiosity never killed anything except maybe a few hours
:puzzlecat: When in doubt, cop an attitude
:purplekitty: Variety is the spice of life. One day, ignore people; the next day, annoy them
:puzzleheart: Climb your way to the top, that's why the curtains are there
:redtiger: Make your mark in the world, or at least spray in each corner
:ginger: Always give generously; a bird or rodent left on the bed tells them, "I care"
:manekineko: When you have something important to say, say it in the dead of night when you're sure everyone's sleeping. There's no better way to get the attention you deserve.

:mbpraise:THANK YOU
Thank you, Lord, for pretty things.

Thank you for boys with bouquets of roses.
Thank you for babies with ticklish bellies;
For cookies and cakes and homemade jellies.
Thank you for kittens with soft, furry toes.
Thank you for glitter and buttons and bows.
Thank you for beaches and for summer flings,
For jewels and other frivolous things,
For window sills and sunflower seeds.
Dear Lord, thank you for things I don’t need.:mbnecoup:

I want to tell people it is a lovely game, and highly underrated !

I was skeptical when I started playing this , because it didn`t look like my other KB games.

And now,
I absolutely love it !
I do understand why people who wanted a new Crossworlds don`t get it - but I see it as a whole new game, and I truly enjoy every moment !
It is different. And a pretty , fun, relaxing, exciting , with lovely music as always - and it is definitely a KB.
Don`t listen to the angry disappointed voices - there are a lot of people like me who loves it.

The positive :
1. The story . Actually very much like every other KB story ; Fantasy , and not very deep, but interesting so far , with surprises , heroes and villains, twists and turns.

2. Easy learning curve . The game is very gentle on you in the beginning, with few fights , and lots of social interacting and treasure hunting. ( Probably why some people thinks the game is too easy - but it sure is not ! )

3. The fighting. It is different from former KB`s in some ways. The army you have is restricted to very few of each unit, and in stead of one unit representing all, they all show on the fighting arena . Also, terrain matters .
When you get used to it, it`s fun ! , and you have to plan your tactics and army carefully.

4. Nice skill management - and here too, you need careful planning. You can change your choices whenever you like, and the first time is for free. If you choose to change them later, it will cost you. There are four categories of skill trees, and you have to meet certain requirements according to alignment and moral, to reach the skills you want . Which means you have to choose carefully what choices you make when doing quests.

5. Three main characters to choose from, and if you like ; And several different ways to play the game.

6. Lovely music, as always.

7. Very Pretty Colourful World .

8. Relaxing in the way most turn-based tactical games are. Only, you are better off playing with a controller than your keyboard and mouse ( personal opinion, of course ).

9. Shops are like in most RPG`s , they sell better and better stuff the further in the game you are.

10. An early complain people had was about the character and her horse`s slow movement . This has been fixed , so it is no longer an issue . Thank you, devs !

11. The troop management is a great . You can have numerous reserves, and so you can choose what troops to use in what fight . Thumbs up !
......

The negative ( Not horrible, just a couple of things that could have been better , imho ) :

1. The puzzles - are nice, but way too easy to solve ; Look around a bit, and the answers will be given to you. Most of the time your protagonist tells you what to do . Later in the game you have to use your brain a little more - but not that much.

2. The treasure chests most often contains useless trash, only to sell for money . - However , and this in on the plus side again ! ; You do find a lot of nice spell scrolls - dearly needed !

3. The tutorials are not very informative - Several features could have been a lot better explained .

......
I am personally willingly pay the price for this , and I most certainly believe that developers should be properly paid for their work.
Compared to other games of this quality, the price is absolutely right.

Hej Talana, så er jeg tilbage på Steam igen, de sidste 6 måneder har jeg og min Søster været hos vores Mor der fik konstateret 4 forskellige Canser forløb på en gang, så min søster (Karina) sad ved Mor på skift døgnet rundt 24 timer af gangen 3-4 dage af gangen, og så byttede vi, det var hårdt for os alle 3, men Talana, jeg vil komme tilbage med mere om forløbet med min Mor, der er så meget at tale/skrive om, og Talana, jeg håber at du og din familie har det rigtigt godt, kan du have en god dag, min rigtige gode ven. Kærlig hilsen fra Allan. :steamhappy:
