Number of factions

Mirada2000 · September 1, 2002, 13:14

One can play with all factions has alien crossfire.

Mirada2000 · September 1, 2002, 13:29

Would I like to play with all factions (14)?

Method · September 1, 2002, 13:59

no, with alien crossfire, you may still only play with 7, but you can pick which ones. (all old factions, all new, a combination of old and new)

Mirada2000 · September 1, 2002, 15:09

One cannot modify anything to put them all ?

Mongoose · September 1, 2002, 15:15

Nope. Never more than 7 factions. The only way you can play with a number other than seven is through use of the scenario editor. Then again, you cannot have more than seven; you can elimiante some to have fewer than seven.

Peut-etre vous pouviez poser votre questions en Francais comme l'anglais? Peut-être quelqu'un parle français assez bien pour vous comprendre plus facile de cette façon

Mongoose · September 3, 2002, 18:57

On dit 'vos questions', n'est pas?

Method · September 3, 2002, 19:36

either "vos questions" or "votre question"

...though i have been proven wrong on such matters before

KrysiasKrusader · September 3, 2002, 20:07

Here's the correct way (not including accents) ...

Pourriez-vous poser vos questions en langue Francaise?

Peut-etre que quelqu'un pourra y repondre.

( Lots of French girlfriends... )

Method · September 3, 2002, 20:12

now that makes sense to me, but then again, so does chowlett's version. i'll just have to trust you though, since you're from montreal

In case anyone cares...

Hold down alt and press...
130 - é
131 - â
133 - à
135 - ç
136 - ê
138 - è
147 - ô
148 - ö
149 - ò
150 - û
151 - ù
160 - á
162 - ó
163 - ú

By no means do I have these memorized - I just know they're 130-160ish, and the 'é' and 'ç' I know.

Pourriez-vous poser vos questions en français? Peut-être nous les comprendrons mieux et quelqu'un pourra y repondre

Something like that. I don't nearly have enough experience to truely know whether I've made any sense.

Peut on jouer avec les 14 factions dans une partie.

Mongoose · September 4, 2002, 02:37

Non. On ne peut jamais jouer avec plus que sept factions dans une partie. Il faut jouer avec sept factions exactement sauf quelqu'un en a éliminé employant le scenario editor.

Chowlett · September 4, 2002, 09:12

Yeah, well, I only did French to the age of 16. It took quite some effore to work out that "pourriez" is the correct tense for that sentence...

Method · September 4, 2002, 20:32

/me must inform you that due to budget cut-backs, this post has been erradicated.

(it was stupid, and OT

)

MariOne · September 5, 2002, 06:46

Hmmmm...
was it perhaps a pun about the fact that "pourriez" also could mean "you'd rot"? (I guess...)

Clear Skies · September 6, 2002, 07:53

In that case, would you have to use pot pourriez to get rid of the smell?....

*chorus of groans*

Don't presume that people from Montreal use French properly. In many ways the Quebec version is unique, due to their relative isolation from France for so many years. If you go up into the north especially it's Quebecois, not exactly French. There's a difference.

Sorry when I sound a bit picky, but you might think about using question marks after a question.

You English sentence wouldn't have been correct but correctly understood, and this is what counts.

I was in doubt whether you asked a question or posted a discovery without explanation.

Chowlett · September 9, 2002, 09:16

Nous espérions que votre français est assez bien, alors...

How was that?

Mirada2000 · September 9, 2002, 10:34

En français: "je suis habite un paris"

Chowlett · September 9, 2002, 19:04

Hey we understood!

D'you know, I'm not sure I can translate "hey"?

Method · September 9, 2002, 19:13

hé?

I said, I don't know the French word for "hey".

Sorry, terrible joke, but it had to be done.
