    I would like to see the physics algorithms used to calculate hits and blocks :)

    Collision boxes yes? Client-side?

    The ultimate solution to every problem: more space marines.

    hmm i dident like he said "my guardian character, hes the perfect melee class in AoC", does this mean that EG an assasin is inferior to a guardian? EG in a pvp battle? that would be pretty bad if that was the truth, because then the only classes on the pvp servers would be a few healers with ahell of lot guardians..

    I've known that I was going to get this game for some time but that video is exactly what I needed see.

    ...Heads!

    ...Will!

    ...Roll!

    I wouldn't focus on that line and take it to literally or seriously. That's just Erling having a Paul Barnett moment. Just excited about talking about his game and trying to use descriptive words to get the viewers excited/interested too.
