The Legion runs a distraction attack into the wight-infested town of Comfort. Overwhelmed by wights, we eventually downshift into Simple difficulty to get this mission completed. Hopefully for the last time.

We're playing the next of Bungie's famous games, the Real Time Tactics fantasy wargame, Myth. Set in a mysterious land of cyclical war and destruction, Myth lets you command an ragtag army in a desperate battle against the forces of the Fallen Lords.

The mayor of nearby Otter Ferry would betray his citizens to the Dark. We intend to stop him.

Due to the tireless work of many community members over the years, the Myth engine has been modernized to work on current operating systems, although you'll still need a copy of the game's data files to play. Check Ebay.

Blackstar and Narcogen talk about Bungie's latest raid-- it's normal and hard variants, the differences between it and earlier raids like Crota's End and the Vault of Glass, and contrasts between regular and blind runs.

In this first level, a small detachment of soldiers left behind to defend the sleepy village of Crow's Bridge get a nasty surprise when the enemy's animated corpses, the Thrall, emerge from the river.

Narc and Blackstar tried out this year's special holiday multiplayer mode, Sparrow Racing League.

The S'pht decide to give the cyborg a special reward, and this easter egg produces the first level worthy of an inclusion in Anita Sarkeesian's "Tropes vs Women" series as we're led into a pool full of nude female simulacra. Just be sure to play nice, unlike Narcogen.

The final step for getting an exotic sword is running a Light 300 version of the Darkblade strike on the Dreadnaught. This version adds the elemental-shielded Warden knights from the Founts area to the boss fight, and requires that you kill the Knight with the elemental shield corresponding to the element of the sword you're trying for no more than 30 seconds before killing the boss.

Narcogen assembles the last materials into the weapon frame for the Touch of Malice exotic scout rifle, then gets help from Blackstar and bluerunner help Narcogen to take down a Wizard miniboss in a special version of the Fear's Embrace story mission to finally earn the weapon.

Want an exotic sword? Narcogen does. First step in A Sword Reforged is killing a special knight on the Dreadnaught. Blackstar tags along.

The last of the 45 calcified fragments is in the hands of Court of Oryx Tier 3 boss, Thalnok, who is such a big fan of Crota he wants to die the same way. Bluerunner and random stranger Podvox help out Narcogen and Blackstar take out mini-Crota.

The quest for the exotic scout rifle, Touch of Malice, requires 45 calcified fragments be collected from the Dreadnaught. With only a few remaining, Narcogen recruits Blackstar, CortanaVIII and some randoms to collect one from Court of Oryx Tier 3 boss, Balwûr.

With the help of Cougron, Midnight and Freewill, Narcogen tracks down the quest path leading to the new exotic pulse rifle, No Time To Explain. This video shows the collection of the cult ghost memory fragments from the heroic version of the Paradox story mission, as well as the special co-op and solo missions that are required for discovery of the weapon.

The next step in the Hunger Pangs quest for the Touch of Malice scout rifle requires us to do a special version of the Undying Mind strike on Mars and kill a Taken Knight.
