"Two houses of the five are stronger"?
Source? -PanSola 17:09, 20 April 2006 (CDT)


 * Does it even need a source? House zu Heltzer runs the government and House Vasburg the military. The other houses are all dedicated to emogoth pursuits such as sculpture, music, history etc. &mdash; Stabber 17:13, 20 April 2006 (CDT)
 * I think what you just said qualifies them for being prominent. None prominent houses can be strong too, but because they aren't prominent, you might not have noticed their strength.  Thus I'm interested in sources that indicate two of the five houses are stronger.  I agree zu Heltzer and Vasburg are more prominent, which is a different issue. -PanSola 17:32, 20 April 2006 (CDT)
 * BTW, the current ruling political party in Taiwan, aka the one that is running the government, is MUCH weaker than the opposition party (as of the recent/current political climate), even though the president still has 2 years left in his term. So running the government really isn't indicative of strength. -PanSola 17:35, 20 April 2006 (CDT)
 * I'm also not sure whether Vasburg actually runs the military. What the historian of houses say is that members of Vasburg are the greatest warriors/fighters.  Ppl running the military tend to be great tacticians or politicians, which is subtly different. -PanSola 17:43, 20 April 2006 (CDT)


 * The source is the same for all that info which you have asked me about before, the manual. I don't even know which two houses (one can assume House zu Heltzer, but I don't know what the second is). They just said that and I copied it. Again, take it up with ANet. :) --Karlos 20:50, 20 April 2006 (CDT)


 * Thanks. Sigh, I preordered a month ago, and the local EB still doesn't have the pre-order box. -PanSola 21:17, 20 April 2006 (CDT)


 * Are you in the US? I have more Pre-order packages than I can use in one lifetime. :) I can send you one, with the wrapper even. :) --Karlos 21:46, 20 April 2006 (CDT)


 * Um, how many pre-order packages can one use in a lifetime? d-: Yes I'm in the US.  Umm, lemme think how to get my contact info to you w/o the planet knowing about it. -PanSola 21:51, 20 April 2006 (CDT)


 * PM me in-game, you have all my chars on my user page. Lamees and Kyle are two separate accounts.
 * Hmm, I first went out and bought the pre-order from Best Buy, then I ordered the regular Factions from Amazon and they sent me a free Pre-Order package, then I canceled that order and ordered the Collector's Edition from EB Games and they sent me a third. So, I used the first 2 on my two accounts and I have an unopened 3rd one. --Karlos 22:02, 20 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Doh! such an obvious solution *smacks forehead, or at least tries to but hitting the nose instead* -PanSola 22:28, 20 April 2006 (CDT)
