  • <b>4096 combinations:</b><br> The original plan was for each race to have 5 different subsystems, each with 5 different choices for a total of 12500 unique combinations. At release there were only three of each type, which was later increased to four for a total of 4096 unique combinations. Even before the expansion people knew that the "golden pathing" effect would kick in and players would quickly discover a small collection of optimum setups for each ship. In the same way that players have identified standard setups that work best with each tech 1 and tech 2 ship, cookie-cutter builds for tech 3 are becoming known. With programs like EVE Fitting Tool to play with, you can quickly figure out some of the most effective setups for a given role.

    We can't believe it either – Turpster has been let loose on WoW.com to bring you videos from in and around the World of Warcraft! You've heard him on the WoW Insider Show, and now see him on TurpsterVision right here on WoW.com. It's been far too long. I've been playing loads of games in-between knuckling down with some university work, I've constructed a website for a Bristol based landscape gardener, and I've been on a couple of different podcasts. Yet with all this I've missed out on gracing the net with WoW.com's number 1 Video Podcast! In the immortal words of Tychus J. Findlay, 'Hell, it's about time!' But I wouldn't just return to your screens empty handed, oh no, I come bearing gifts! A mighty tankard overflowing with ale -- at least it could be if you are lucky enough to win it and fill it with some booze or other beverage of your choosing. The stein itself is a beautiful piece of art and construction. To really enjoy the details, check out the gallery below the break. It's good to be back.
