![]() Kong Rong's main difficulty is a mandatory battle with Yellow Turban rebels near Beihai a few turns into his campaign. In contrast, Ma Teng can become hampered by his alliance with Han Sui, while his starting position is uncomfortably close to Dong Zhuo, making it difficult to grab Han commanderies without igniting a big war. His only difficulty at the start is a shortage of food, which can be resolved by trading with his vassals. Players trying for the "Han Shot First" achievement will play as a governor faction, and is very likely to choose Liu Biao, as his starting position is by far the strongest/flexible of the three original governors. ![]() note It also doesn't hurt that Liu Bei doesn't start with a heir at this point. Making Lyu the faction heir is pretty much the only way to keep him loyal and a loyal Lyu Bu is a beast. Liu Bei players starting in 194 CE will almost always adopt Lyu Bu when he offers to join Liu, and then make him faction heir.For that matter, anyone starting remotely near the south will rush to grab the Han commanderies in the south-east, as three of the map's six copper mines are located in the region copper allows the player to eventually build a mint in the settlement to reduce faction-wide inflation.Players who want a relatively easy time will use Sun Jian, due to the reasons listed under his Demonic Spiders entry below.Cao Cao players starting in 190 CE would almost certainly use Cao Song in some form of marriage diplomacy, since Song is going to die a few turns into the game.However, players have noted the lack of attention towards "Records" mode, making it less balanced than the "Romance" mode. ![]() This persists in spite of the fact that the game has two different modes of campaign: a realistic historical one, and an embellished romantic one with the standard Wuxia flair.

![]() For one, it isn't really a gaming laptop – it's more of a professional-and-general-use laptop that has the ability to run certain games. MacBook Pro M1 – Performance & GamingIt's hard to compare the MacBook Pro directly to other gaming laptops we test. ![]() And frankly, while it can't cut a block of cheese like the MacBook Air can, the Pro is still very thin and light. The Air also gets rid of the fans for a completely silent design – while I wouldn't consider the Pro noisy by any means, it does use that active cooling for more sustained, unthrottled performance when needed. For its slimmer design (and price tag), the Air eschews one of the M1's GPU cores (in certain models), the Touch Bar, and 10Wh of battery capacity. All told, it's extremely similar to the M1-equipped MacBook Air, which has almost the exact same internal and external hardware for a lower price. I still have plenty of USB-A devices, not to mention the occasional need for an extra display, and fumbling with a series of dongles is not my idea of a good time. Two measly USB-C ports is just not enough, particularly when one of those is often taken up by your laptop charger. Apple's port selection still bugs me to no end, unfortunately. Cramming some speakers along the sides of the keyboard works well, and while they'll never come close to a dedicated set of speakers (or headphones), they'll do in a pinch if you're watching YouTube videos or streaming tunes without a pair of earbuds nearby – I'd even argue they sound better than a lot of 15-inch laptops I've tested in the past year. The speakers sounded surprisingly decent for a 13-inch laptop, which usually require less-than-stellar downward-firing drivers. Using an X-Rite i1Display Pro and Displa圜al software, I measured the display's brightness at 521 nits (plenty for most environments) with a solid contrast ratio of 1459:1 and 97% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, which allows for bright, vivid colors across the spectrum. The Retina display is sharp and beautiful, with a black bezel around the edge that's wider than competing Windows models, which makes it feel just a tad dated – but I'm honestly splitting hairs given how premium the rest of this machine feels. ![]() The Touch ID sensor on the power button, however, is still a hugely welcome inclusion for quick logins and security checks, though I wish Apple would implement facial recognition already to keep up with its Windows-based competitors. It's not a deal breaker by any means, and perhaps I'm just a fuddy duddy who refuses to get with the times, but it's not for me. I often find the shortcuts I actually want are buried behind an extra tap-to-expand gesture, because the rest of the bar is wasting space on something useless. But in practice, it just feels a little ham-fisted. All that said, I'm still not in love with the touch bar – in theory, it's a great idea, giving you different shortcuts based on the context of what you're doing. It's actually very satisfying, and hopefully the lack of moving parts means one less point of failure. The trackpad is large, smooth, and still one of the most accurate you'll find on the market – though instead of a physical button, you get Apple's Force Touch haptic feedback that simulates a click feeling. Still, I found it comfortable enough for casual browsing and longer writing sessions alike. It has significantly deeper key travel than the previous version, but not quite as deep as the MacBooks of old. The keyboard is, thankfully, the new-old "Magic" keyboard designed to replace Apple's disastrous butterfly design. The unibody aluminum finish is clean and understated, with a black Apple logo on the lid and a thin, lightweight chassis you can easily fit in a backpack. MacBook Pro M1 – Design and FeaturesIn terms of appearance, the M1 MacBook Pro looks just like every other MacBook we've seen for years.
![]() Open hands indicate that I am not shaking my fist in anger, wringing my hands in fear, grasping for this moment’s want, or clinging to the outcome I demand. The best image I can come up with for spiritually free prayer is the image of my own hands, relaxed and open. Prayer is a way to be with God, to dwell in that holy space of friendship. We go into the conversation trusting that God already knows our needs and will always care for us. There are no negotiations and hoping against hope that God will be merciful and give us what we need. Spiritual freedom allows us to carry on an open-ended conversation with God, who creates us and loves us always and completely. Ignatius would tell us that this is a very un-free kind of prayer, and it’s not the way one friend talks to another. Too often in our prayer, we do not trust God’s character but rather hope that God will negotiate, taking into account our best efforts and good intentions.

The games took around five months to complete, with Stuart travelling between Southampton and Horely, where Jeff was based, to check on progress. Not that it was an easy task, the Atari ST was known for being unable to scroll games within the hardware, so Jeff would have to work around it. This enabled him to not only practice, but to truly emulate sections of the game perfectly. The difficulty was of their time.” Jeff mentions that he managed to get rather good at the game, but he did have an arcade cabinet in his home while he worked on the code. That attitude translated from arcades to home computers. Those days, they were about being satisfying, but being difficult enough to keep putting money in. Discussing the difficulty, Jeff Gamon who was a bedroom coder, says “These days, games aren’t about beating them. It's tough to find many people who can name all of the transformations, as Altered Beast was insanely difficult. Many will remember the first incarnation, the wolf, who could dash forward and back in a triangle shaped burst of power, or punch forwards, unleashing a ball of energy to kill his foes. ![]() ![]() Collecting these would gradually ‘power up’ the centurion, boosting his damage until he transforms into a beast, ready for the boss fight. ![]() It’s a plot that is, ultimately, forgettable (you were saving Zeus’ daughter Athena), because most of us played for the three glowing orbs which would appear in battles.
