![]() This may come as a surprise - I am leaving the AoE community - I feel like I have achieved everything I could have with Age of Empires, and I thoroughly enjoyed the years I spent here on AoEH and playing the Age games and designing with them as well as making friends along the way. Strange how that works, at least we always have the original to go back to and enjoy - something they can never take or replace. Gaming in general seems to have regressed in many ways (a prime example being communication, lol) even though technical advancements have been made. I am very happy to see that in our last poll the original game and it's expansion came out on top - what's the most complete AoE1 experience according to you? Here are the results: ![]() Hope you have a nice Christmas, Yule, or Holidays with your loved ones! and goodbye Posted by PhatFish on December 24th, 2023 11:22 a.m. Merry Christmas to you all! | Comments Happy Holidays. So without further ado I bring you:Īs I see how Phatty has thoroughly tracked down lost media from the game's official development through the years, I find myself wondering, what about all the user made content? Who else might have had projects like this, practically finished, or still in development, which never got shared to our Granary? What happened to those campaigns others sent screenshots of in the Designer's board on the forums? Where are those contest entries that we seemingly just lost track of after they were judged? To anyone still holding on to pieces like this, I just want to say, I would be very interested to see them. From the awestriking effects depicting the wrath of God to the unique experience of raising cities from pre-placed foundations (a trick at the time just made possible through Zapdotep's Composite Editor), these scenarios conceived by Gumble in 2010 may very well present the peak of the scenario design craft for AoE: Rise of Rome, while also being so typical of Gumble's style of design and the time period they were drafted in. Captured before in the all time classic David Saga by Imhotep or Helelix's excellent Samuel 2:20, I can assure you that Gumble's two scenarios focusing on the rise and fall of Israel's first king Saul bring a unique experience, maybe one of the most impressive created for Rise of Rome. I think there are few tales from the Bible which lend themselves quite as well to Age of Empires scenarios as those of the first kings of Israel. But now I finally feel like the time to share this with you all has come. I always felt a little weird about the prospect of leaking this to you given that I had been teasing my own unreleased campaign to you all for over 8 years. ![]() Recently I've been digging through an old hard drive from that time and I found what I was looking for. Which finally brings us to my Christmas gift for you all. I guess I'm quite unique in that my nostalgia for Age of Empires 1 centers mostly in the period around 2010. But I was just in time to witness Andrea Rosa's last release and to be part of the last few scenario design contests hosted on AoEH. Arriving to the site in 2007 I was a bit too late to experience the golden age of HeavenGames or multiplayer on The MSN Gaming Zone. That said I still have my occasional bursts of nostalgia, during which I like to think back to a time when I was just one of a dozen little nerds putting out content for a game which was already then an old relic. I'm almost always around but I put nowhere near that amount of passion in keeping the site alive and putting out new content. It's hard not to feel like the lesser Seraph compared to him. ![]() Oh and not to forget his one of a kind work with documenting everything he could about the game's development, culminating with his most recent Christmas gift to us. So first of all, since Phatfish is saying farewell to the AoE community, I guess I will be the first to thank him for everything he has done: The hard work he has put in not just to keep AoE Heaven afloat but also heading multiple redesigns, leaving us as perhaps the most modern HG site today despite hosting the most ancient game, his amazing scenarios like Night of the Dragon which almost seem like witchcraft to us mortals who only dare play around in the editor, the multitude of mods he created and all other projects which he assisted with his wisdom and technical knowledge. But I was just going to do the Christmas wishes! I had half a post drafted and everything! And now I have to follow up on that. Another Christmas gift Posted by Fisk on December 24th, 2023 2:42 p.m.

Rapelay (レイプレイ) Download Game Sex – Adult ![]() All i am trying to do is separate the signal and send it back to a processor i have, then to the amp, back to the door speakers and one to an amp for a sub. I am not looking at replacing the head unit, that is just silly with all it has. I am not able to find a metra or any other where I am able to do this. Thank you, that is what i am looking to do. sorry i don't have the part numbers for the plugs, but i think they were from metra. if im remember correctly you have to add one pin to one of the plugs. this is the same plug i used on my 2011 f250 and i already test fit it on my 2017 f-150 and it works. ![]() Then the speaker wires from the amp go back to the factory plug to give the amplified signal to the speakers. So no external amplifier to tap into.good! So assuming you have the same radio as my 2017 with nav you could look into a plug for a Ford Fiesta male and female plugs they will connect to the radio and to the harness then you connect 5 wires power ground and accessories +2 more (red, black and yellow look at the pic) and you would have one set of wires going to the amp (from the head unit plug) and the other set to the speakers ( from the plug connected to the truck harness) if you use a high quality amp that accept high level inputs you don’t need anything else to get signal to the amplifier. The last FX4 we had the system was a waste of money. The DSR1 interfaces at the factory amp location behind the rear seat whereas the PAC unit interfaces behind the head unit. The PAC is more sorted out that the Rockford DSR1 and the software in my opinion is so much better. I have the PAC Interface in my vehicle and that part# is an AP4-FD21 and yes, this interface requires tapping into factory wires or even cutting them depending on the setup. I have a 2016 Lariat with the same setup as your truck except I have the Sony system and yours is B&O but just like your system, my head unit cannot be removed. The DSR1 is not perfect because they are still working out some of the software bugs so keep that in mind. I`m not sure if they have made it compatible with the B&O system so you`ll have to check with the manufacture. This unit does not require any cutting of your factory harnesses and it allows the owner to remove the factory amp from the vehicle. ![]() The one that many people are high on right now is the Rockford Fosgate DSR1. To do what you want to do, you`re going to have to look at one of the new Interface products that are available. The system sounds great, BUT I AM GETTING A INCH FOR A BIGGER HEAD UNIT!!!.I have an’18 FX4 lariat super crew Sync 3 with navigation.Okay, for starters and for future reference, the head unit in your spec F150 "can`t" be removed even if you wanted to change it because it`s an integral part of the CAN-BUS system. ![]() Then he had installed a professional audio SET-UP BEHIND THE SET- with 2 cross overs, 2 amps, and a SUB - very nice system I am not a techie, but here is what i do know about my TRUCKġ) originally is HAD THE OEM B&O AUDIO SYSTEM, then the ORIGINA OWNER had a PROFESSIONAL SYSTEM INSTALL with the following components.ġst HE HAS THE ZESUS - system little BLUE/GREY BOX- which i believe its use to ALLOW AUDIO EQUIPEMTN TO WORK WITH FACTORY SYSTEM My truck is more complicated so looking for input!!

Sequences that go to the foundation pile descend from the King to the Ace. Place higher-ranking cards or higher-ranking columns of cards in empty spaces.So look ahead a few moves and see what cards get freed up before you arrange the tableau. While you can sequence cards regardless of suit, you can only move a column or create a sequence for the foundation pile if it’s all the same suit. Although you’re ready to play, sequencing the first cards you see may not always be the best move. While Spider Solitaire (2 Suits) is more advanced than the 1 suit version, these strategies can give you an edge: Strategies to Win Spider Solitaire (2 Suits) Learn more with our guide on how to play Spider Solitaire, or watch our instructional video. So move cards into the empty spaces before using the stockpile. However, you need a card in every column to do so. When you’re unable to move any more cards, you can click the stock pile, which will deal out 10 face-up cards, 1 to each column. ![]() Use the stockpile if you run out of moves.Filling empty spaces helps reveal other cards in your tableau. You can also move a column of cards as long as the entire column is the same suit. In Klondike Solitaire, only kings can move into empty spaces, but in Spider, any card can move into the empty space. Once you have a sequence that descends from king to ace of the same suit, it will immediately be placed into a foundation pile and removed from play. Instead of building on separate foundation piles, like in Solitaire, you build descending sequences within the tableau. If, however, the sequence includes a 6 of Hearts, 5 of Spades, and 4 Hearts, you cannot move that sequence. For example, if you’re playing with Spades and Hearts and have a 6 of Hearts, 5 of Hearts, and a 4 Hearts, you can move that whole set on top of a 7 of Hearts or a 7 of Spades. If you want to move an entire sequence or column of cards, the sequence or column must be of the same suit, and you can place it on a card that is 1 rank higher but of either suit. Move columns of cards if they are the same suit.For example, if you’re playing with Clubs and Diamonds, a 6 of Clubs can be placed on top of a 7 of Clubs or a 7 of whatever the second suit is (Diamonds, Hearts, or Spades). To arrange individual cards, you just move them on top of a card that is 1 rank higher-even if it’s not the same suit. Move individual cards by rank, regardless of suit.When you deal from the stock pile, you will be dealt 1 face-up card on each column, overlapping the cards already present. You begin with only 10 face-up cards, but you can free face-down cards by removing a face-up card from on top of it. The only cards you can move are the face-up cards in the columns of the tableau. These rules help you understand how to play Spider Solitaire (2 Suits): The waste pile: Unlike Solitaire, you don’t use a waste pile because the stockpile cards are dealt directly onto columns in the tableau.Instead, you create the entire sequence in the tableau and then transfer it to a foundation pile when it is complete. Additionally, you don’t build on those spaces during the game. The Foundation piles: Like classic Solitaire, you leave room at the top for foundation piles, but you need 8 spaces instead of 4.If the stock pile runs out and you can’t make any more moves, you have lost the game. When you are stuck and can’t make any more moves, you deal 1 card face-up to each column from the stock pile until the stock pile runs out. The stock pile: The remaining 50 cards are placed at the top left of your space, face-down, for the stock pile.You’ll arrange cards in the tableau in descending order instead of building on active foundation piles. All cards are face-down except the last card of each column, which is face-up. You deal out 54 cards from left to right in 10 columns, with 6 cards in the first 4 columns and 5 cards in the last 6 columns. The tableau: Like any Solitaire game, the tableau is the main area for play. ![]() Using two decks of two different suits, you arrange your game space into three key parts: These sequences get transferred to the 8 separate foundation piles. ObjectiveĬlear all the cards by building sequences within the tableau, separated by suit and arranged in descending order from King (high) to Ace (low). Well-suited for intermediate players, Spider Solitaire (2 Suits) uses 104 cards-1 deck of Hearts and 1 deck of Spades. If you enjoy Spider Solitaire but want more of a challenge, you’re ready for Spider Solitaire (2 Suits). ![]() When atoms gain electron/s, the negatively charged ion is formed, and when the atoms lose electron/s, the positively charged ion is formed. This electric charge generated on the ion is known as Ionic charge. Of the 94 naturally occurring elements, 83 are primordial and 11 occur only in decay chains of primordial elements.Ionic charge: When the atom loses or gains one or more electrons, the electric charge is generated (and an ion is formed). The first 94 elements occur naturally the remaining 24, americium to oganesson (95–118), occur only when synthesized in laboratories. Thus, it is relatively easy to predict the chemical properties of an element if one knows the properties of the elements around it. Elements with similar chemical properties generally fall into the same group in the periodic table, although in the f-block, and to some respect in the d-block, the elements in the same period tend to have similar properties, as well. oxygen, sulfur, and selenium are in the same column because they all have four electrons in the outermost p-subshell). ![]() Columns ( groups) are determined by the electron configuration of the atom elements with the same number of electrons in a particular subshell fall into the same columns (e.g. A new row ( period) is started when a new electron shell has its first electron. In the standard periodic table, the elements are listed in order of increasing atomic number Z. When atomic mass is shown, it is usually the weighted average of naturally occurring isotopes but if there are none, the mass of the most stable isotope usually appears, often in parentheses. Isotopes are never separated in the periodic table they are always grouped together under a single element. For example, carbon has three naturally occurring isotopes: all of its atoms have six protons and most have six neutrons as well, but about one per cent have seven neutrons, and a very small fraction have eight neutrons. Most elements have multiple isotopes, variants with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Many alternative representations of the periodic law exist, and there is some discussion as to whether there is an optimal form of the periodic table.Įach chemical element has a unique atomic number ( Z ) representing the number of protons in its nucleus. Some scientific discussion also continues regarding whether some elements are correctly positioned in today's table. It is not yet known how far the table will go beyond these seven rows and whether the patterns of the known part of the table will continue into this unknown region. ![]() Today, while all the first 118 elements are known, thereby completing the first seven rows of the table, chemical characterisation is still needed for the heaviest elements to confirm that their properties match their positions. In nature, only elements up to atomic number 94 exist to go further, it was necessary to synthesise new elements in the laboratory. The periodic table continues to evolve with the progress of science. The periodic table and law are now a central and indispensable part of modern chemistry. Seaborg's discovery that the actinides were in fact f-block rather than d-block elements. A recognisably modern form of the table was reached in 1945 with Glenn T. It was explained early in the 20th century, with the discovery of atomic numbers and associated pioneering work in quantum mechanics both ideas serving to illuminate the internal structure of the atom. The periodic law was recognized as a fundamental discovery in the late 19th century. As not all elements were then known, there were gaps in his periodic table, and Mendeleev successfully used the periodic law to predict some properties of some of the missing elements. The first periodic table to become generally accepted was that of the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev in 1869 he formulated the periodic law as a dependence of chemical properties on atomic mass. Nonmetallic character increases going from the bottom left of the periodic table to the top right. Metallic character increases going down a group and decreases from left to right across a period. Vertical, horizontal and diagonal trends characterize the periodic table. Elements in the same group tend to show similar chemical characteristics. The table is divided into four roughly rectangular areas called blocks. It is a depiction of the periodic law, which says that when the elements are arranged in order of their atomic numbers an approximate recurrence of their properties is evident. It is an icon of chemistry and is widely used in physics and other sciences. The periodic table, also known as the periodic table of the elements, arranges the chemical elements into rows (" periods") and columns (" groups"). ![]() Open the Start menu, and then start typing “eclipsecrossword” to search.

![]() The set had rules for two different games, anti-monopolist and Monopolist. Description Landlords Game board, based on Magie's 1924 US patent (no. The investigators concluded that this game board was the missing link that proves that Monopoly was derived from The Landlord's Game. In a 2004 episode of PBS' History Detectives (title: "Monopoly Japanese Internment Camp Artwork The Lewis and Clark Cane"), the show investigated a game board belonging to a Delaware man, having an intermediate version of a game combining elements of The Landlord's Game and Monopoly. Parker Brothers published their edition of the game in 1939. In 1937, Carnival was published based on the 1904 version. Magie then did two interviews showcasing copies of the original board with The Washington Post and The Evening Star to show that Darrow was not the inventor of the game. Parker Brothers pushed her game aside for Darrow's by 1936. Surviving copies of The Landlord's Game by Parker Brothers are considered by many the rarest of all 20th century board games. The company only printed a very small run of the game to secure the copyright. The company had recently started distributing Monopoly, which it purchased from Charles Darrow who claimed to have invented it. Magie held the patent until 1935, when she sold it to Parker Brothers for $500, equivalent to $10,672 in 2022. ![]() Robert Baron had Parker Brothers design its own version, Fortune, before negotiation to purchase her patents in case the discussion fell apart or she sold to another potential buyer, Dave Knapp, publisher of Finance. Adgame Company (Inc.) published Landlord's Game and Prosperity under this patent in 1932. On September 23, 1924, a second patent was issued to Magie for The Landlord's Game. With Magie's first patent having expired, in 1923, Magie decided to attempt to regain control by applying for another patent. Jesse and Eugene Raiford, Quakers in Atlantic City, used household items instead of pawns and changed the properties to those of Atlantic City. Among the Atlantic City and Philadelphia communities of Quakers, the game was particularly popular with college students and economics professors. Various versions of the game popped up over the following years under a variety of names, Monopoly, Finance, and Auction being among them. College students made up their own boards to use with her rules. Scott Nearing, socialist professor of economics at Wharton School of Finance from 1906 to 1915, lived in Arden in 1910, where Magie invented the game, learned about the game and taught it to his students. Landlord sold well in the Northeast amongst its left-wing intellectuals, while Brer was unsuccessful. In the United Kingdom The Landlord's Game was first published in 1913 by the Newbie Game Company, formed by a Liberal Committee from the village of Newbie in Dumfries, under the title Brer Fox an' Brer Rabbit although, despite the title change, it was recognizably the same game. The other game was accepted while Landlord's was rejected as too complicated. Magie approached Parker Brothers to publish this and one other game in 1909. Magie and fellow Georgists formed a company, Economic Game Company, in 1906 New York to publish the game. In 1903, Magie filed for a patent on the game which was granted in 1904. First page of patent submission for second version of Lizzie Magie's board game, submitted in 1923 and granted in 1924 There are hints that suggest Elizabeth Magie might have known Zohn Ahl and incorporated some of the game's ideas. The Landlord's Game has some similarities to the basic rules of the board game Zohn Ahl, played by the Kiowa Indians of North America. Magie also hoped that when played by children the game would provoke their natural suspicion of unfairness, and that they might carry this awareness into adulthood. She knew that some people could find it hard to understand why this happened and what might be done about it, and she thought that if Georgist ideas were put into the concrete form of a game, they might be easier to demonstrate. ![]() She based the game on the economic principles of Georgism, a system proposed by Henry George, with the object of demonstrating how rents enrich property owners and impoverish tenants. The game was created to be a "practical demonstration of the present system of land grabbing with all its usual outcomes and consequences". In 1902 to 1903, Magie designed the game and play tested it in Arden, Delaware.
