I downloaded the new mission for oblivion tonight and beat it in about 30 minutes. I think the experience was good but, not worth 200 points to purchase. Bethesda should have given this download away for free in my opinion. The adventure starts out with a letter you have received form the caretaker of the Orrery in the imperial city. Some bandits have stolen the parts to make the Orrery work. Who do they call to fix that problem? You guessed it.
You start out to the north of Kvatch. The first camp," Camp Ales" you square off against a Bandit carrier and a Bandit Hedge Wizard. They were pretty easy to beat. Just block and counter and the fight will be over quickly. My character is level 12 and the bandit carrier seemed to dispense all the good stuff. She drops a Mace of Dissolution and that about it. There are four more of these camps, Camp Varus, Camp Bodean, Camp Dagay, and Camp Brotch. All of these are about the same, kill the bandits and get the stolen part from the bandit carrier. On the way to Camp Dagay I notice a small lake with a skeleton and a chest, no real treasure just thought it was kind neat, also pick a nirnroot at that lake. One other note, careful when kill the bandits in the grass some items tend to disappear in the tall grass.
Once you have completed that part of the quest, return the parts to the imperial city. Once the Orrery is active (which is the coolest part of the whole side adventure), you will be reward with the Masser's Grace Spell (Fortify Agility 20 pts for 60 secs, Drain Endurance 20 pts for 60 secs, cast once a day. Thanks for reading.
A pretty sweet game of WhiteRa vs Jinro! Apparently 'Microphone Boost' makes my mic sound pretty bad. Live and learn. WhiteRa (Red) Protoss vs Jinro (Blue) Terran

**** Requires Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars To Play - NOT Included
Total War products continue to amaze me with their detail to real life battles and the history behind them. Being a history teacher, I teach about Rome, the Medieval Ages and Alexander the Great, so I appreciate the level of detail these games provide.
Having played Rome TW for awhile, Alexander was a game I had to acquire. Its map focus on Alexanders conquests from Mesopotamia to Egypt to Persia and into in India are intense. I havent played through a whole campaign yet but it is definitly fun. I especially love the Phalanx formation and its power on the battle field at this time. There is no better way to victory than engaging Hoplites with a phalanx formation at the enemy's center and then using Alexander's Companion Cavalry to attack the flanks while they are engaged. Just wonderful!

For years I've been looking for a turn-based strategy game to engage me as much as the Civilization series has. This is one of the few that has come closest. I love the ability to control time, and find that this is a very good strategy game...well worth a look if you enjoy turn-based strategy games. For me, though, it's not good enough to usurp the Civilization series as the best turn-based strategy game ever.
