After countless bloody encounters and many strange turnings in the path, the mountain fastness of the evil sorcerer Theleb Zarak stands in front of you, its spires reaching up to the glowering sky like the vast fingers on a cruel hand. Within its thick, stone walls lay a thousand traps, an army of slavering monsters and the old wizard himself, said to be a five hundred years old and nigh on invincible. None who enter escape alive, but many try their hand, for is it not rumoured that Zarak also guards the greatest hoard of treasure on the four continents? Jewels as big as a man's head, gold piled deep enough to bury an oliphant, and magical weapons powerful enough to win a hardy warrior their own kingdom?

But enough about the fortress. What about you? Who are you, bold adventurer? What is it you seek?

If you are Gronan Headsplitter, warrior, freebooter, sometime pirate, slayer of dragons, raider of tombs and noted lover of many lucky and exhausted people, turn to page 435.

If you are Rex, a good dog, turn to page 198.

    Well, I mean, obviously you choose 198, but you don't have to vote on your choices. I am planning to put links in the OP (and subsequent posts) leading to actual posts containing the next reference.

    EDIT: like that.

    At least Shadow of Mordor had the common sense of making a shitty version of the game for the 360 and PS3 so that the next gen version could really shine.

    Boy I have the inverse opinion. The exclusion of the nemesis system notwithstanding though, looking purely at the aesthetics.

    I thought PS4 DA:I for the most part looked good, often really pretty. Some great looking nature in it.

    PS4 Mordor though I thought looked extremely dated and like a texture pack applied to cubes. Like the whole first area is all about dirt and cliffs but the cliffs were all boxes with some minimal attempt at detail in some places.

    You are Gronan Headsplitter, scourge of the seven duchies of Thraag. You stride confidently towards the fortress. Movement catches your keen eyes, and two Mountain Trolls advance, each swinging a club as big as a man's leg easily in one hand.

    Do you try and parley with the trolls? If so, turn to page 78.

    Parley is for weaklings! Charge the trolls, sword drawn and a snarling battle-cry on your lips. Turn to page 17.

    Make friends and sniff the two not-dogs by turning to page 89.

    Workers attempting to scrub off the paint splashed at the Modern Montessori International on the third floor at The Pinnacle@ Duxton on Jan 14, 2016.

    Elena Chong

    Court Correspondent

    SINGAPORE - A Thai national who splashed red paint on a pre-school where a debtor's children had attended was sentenced to 15 months' jail and three strokes of the cane on Wednesday (March 15).

    Samroeng Sompop, 33, left the same evening by taxi after completing the loan shark harassment job at Modern Montessori International (MMI) pre-school on the third-level of a block at The Pinnacle@Duxton on Jan 13 last year.

    He pleaded guilty to causing annoyance to the childcare centre staff with Lee Tiow Kiong, 56, while acting on behalf of an unlicensed moneylender known as Kelvin in connection with a loan taken by the debtor.

    About 30 debtor's notes with "O$P$" written on them were found on the floor nearby. The notes contained the names of the debtor and his family as well as their home address at one of the seven blocks at the residential complex.

    Two "Super Big Gulp" cups stained with red paint and wrapped in a plastic bag were found on the floor.

    Investigations showed that the debtor had taken a loan from a loan shark, known as Ah Siao, in August 2015 and had subsequently defaulted on payments.

    Deputy Public Prosecutor Amanda Sum said due to the harassment from unlicensed moneylenders at home and at his workplace from late September 2015, the debtor moved out and transferred his two children to another childcare centre.

    Sompop was arrested at Changi Airport on Feb 16 this year after his identity was established.

    Police had arrested Lee for a separate offence of loan shark harassment in March last year.

    Lee revealed during investigations that he had also committed the loan shark harassment at the MMI pre-school with Sompop by driving him there.

    The court heard that Sompop had come to Singapore on Jan 13 2016 on an all-expense paid trip sponsored by a person called Max, whom he knew from Thailand.

    Lee had picked him up that day from the hotel and told him that he would give him 20,000 baht (S$802) to commit harassment at the pre-school.

    After Sompop completed the job, Lee drove him to Queen Street where he took a taxi to Johor Baru, and eventually made his way back to Thailand.


    Lee has been dealt with.

    The maximum penalty for unlicensed moneylending harassment is five years' jail, a $50,000 fine and six strokes of the cane.

    Gronan Headsplitter does not wage wars of aggression. I do not fear these trolls just because they are different than me. I do not cross to the other side of the street or lock my doors when a troll comes through the neighborhood. I choose to parlay.

    You approach the trolls, hands spread wide in friendship. "Now then, lads, why not let me pass? I'm sure you don't get paid much for guarding the old miser's fortress. If I come out with treasure I'll split it with you. Maybe I'll kill the old man and take over. It could mean a promotion, lads."

    The trolls look at each other, thinking hard, but after their dull minds process your offer, their savage grins and raised clubs tell you without words that you have failed.

    Turn to page 17, but take one point of Shame for trying to reason with such monsters.

    P Good. You?

    Can't complain! It's warm and beautiful here, whereas my fam in the north east is under a million feet or so of snow. Condolences to you chatters dealing with that weather. I was supposed to fly to PHL tonight for a work thing. That work thing got postponed so I am stoked that I don't have to travel right now.

    But yeah things are chill. Counting the days until my trip to Europe in May. Can't come soon enough!
