True...but he died in 1865. The previous two creations are dated 1894 each.
The only well known person to die on that date appears to be Zebulon Baird Vance, who I highly doubt is involved in TF2.

Yeah. Enjoy the comic. :smallsmile:
Have you highfived her yet?
'cos you gotta highfive her already.
Also, note the date on the Life Extender blueprints.
July 17th.
Awful close, isn't it?

She's still in Seattle, actually. Her brother (Northforce on the forums, btw) is actually up there visiting her.

MIND = BLOWN at the comic.
If I could drink and be merry, I would, but I can only be merry. Legal drinking age and all.
EDIT: TINFOIL HAT TIEM!
AUSTRALIUM. Looks like gold, said to have mystical qualities.
GOLDEN WRENCH. Looks like gold, said to have mystical qualities.
Coincidence? I THINK NOT.
New game mode speculation? Australium deposits have been found. RED must defend these new sites, BLU attacks them.
Life Extender Machine. Automatically revives one dead teammate's corpse if they die nearby the machine. Higher levels have shorter cooldown between revives. Only works on whole bodies.
Dell Conagher is the BLU Engineer. His story will be the catalyst for an eventual end to 2fort. Scratch that one, too improbable.

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
For a multiplayer shooter, TF2's plot is getting kind of confusing.....

It will take 3 Australium Bars to craft a golden wrench.
And Australium Bars will only found by playing on the new map where teams fight over Australium. It'll be called Gold Australium Rush.

It looks like a level 1 sentry that has shotgun barrels and some kind of radar or circular thing on top.

Anti-Spy sentry? Establish safer Engie nests, works best if teaming up with an Engie witha regular sentry. I could see it.

Actually, to me it looks like a level 1 sentry in transition to level 2. The sides unfold before sticking out the dual minigun barrels, and the back pops off before sliding down to become the ammo storage bin and later the base to the rocket launcher mount.

Yeah, you're right. This blueprint appears to be similar to a poster made by valve a while back; Look at step 2, where the minigun barrels are in the same position as they are in the comic, and the circular thing is the top of the back popping off.

Re: [Steam] Thread XIII: The World's #1 Forum-Themed Hat Acquisition Simulator
So. Guys.
I think I done found a cool thing.
Looks rather similar to SW Battlefront 2's space battles. Which is, IMO no bad thing.
Anyone thinking of trying it?

I do not think we will be that bad. xp knows of my prodigious ability to pick up a game if I possess a game manual, and we have have decent twitch aimers here. We should do just fine.

And I'm perfectly up for attempting to ram my interceptor into the enemy ship's bridge. Wait, that's not actually a viable tactic?

Dunno if this has been mentioned already, but we've figured out the identities of most of the old-timey classes.
Scout = Billy the Kid
Soldier = Stonewall
Pyro = Abraham Lincoln
Demoman = Demo's Original Design
Heavy = John Henry
Engineer = Nikola Tesla
Medic = Still not sure
Sniper = Davey Crocket
Spy = Fu Manchu

Just a note, Tesla never had any blueprints. He had it all in his head. This apparently managed to piss of Edison, who then went and tried to ruin Tesla's career(Successfully, sorta. You know AC[Alternating Current]? Tesla.)
