I'm still working on a lot of the fancy additions. If I can get a third column added to the left side, the recent comments would go there. So far so good with WP and spambots. I have a pretty strong moderation setting - two or three legit comments were held up and had to meet my approval - but as traffic picks up I will need some sort of verification. For now I want to keep it free and easy. I highly recommend BfME2. I just bought a new machine and I'm sure it will look even better. I also highly recommend finishing Imperium.

I highly recommend BfME2. I just bought a new machine and I’m sure it will look even better.

I also highly recommend finishing Imperium.

Tue, 29 Aug 2006 08:39:01 +0000 http://flashofsteel.com/index.php/2006/08/28/rise-of-the-witch-king/#comment-496 Hmm.. look forward to trying BFME2 when I buy a new machine. Which will have to wait until after I'm done with Imperium. Hmm... may I'll just start looking forward to BFME3, then... Btw - the new Wordpress format is nice, but I miss one feature from your old blog; the sidebar where you could go to all the latest comments. Would be nice to reintroduce that. :-) I would also suggest adding a mod adding image authentication to the blog. Without it, Wordpress blogs are sadly way too vulnerable to bots.

Any chance we'll get the patch before the expansion? Thanks for the correction, Tom.

It's part of the v1.05 patch, which us BFME2 fans are not-so-patiently awaiting. The expansion will include the balance changes that are going into v1.05. Assuming, of course, that EA isn't scrapping 1.05 until the expansion comes out. Ugh. However, some features -- like moving in formation -- won't be in v1.05. :( The strengthening of walls isn’t something added in the expansion.
