Help with finding out the title of a book
« on: December 02, 2009, 05:32:03 pm »
I read the synopsis on wikipedia a while ago, but I cannot recall the title. I do think it was a trilogy. Basically, it was about how, after the USSR falls, a soviet base is discovered underneath the antarctic (or was it the artic?), which has some monster loose in it.

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

No, I dont think that was the one (the description I read was more scifish, and they were only three books), but thanks anyway. IŽll check the link to see if I spot it.

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)

the movie is based off:
"Who Goes There" and it has nothing to do with Russians.
