I just didn't understand your "Macs default calculate, with the 'graphic' bit enabled" suggestion.

I spent ages trying to think of something to say in defense of that statement... but I just can't.
If I bought wc3 would you forgive me?

Only if it included the expansion and you played it online.

Yeah, Avatara, I think having this many options makes it rather difficult to settle on a clear victor...

Saturn crushes your duck, you lose, Mr Loser.

The duck is much smaller than the boat. The duck has to hold up all of saturn on one tiny spot, compared to a much larger ship that could spread out some of the mass across its deck.

I rolled a "20". My critical "20" means Saturn turns your puny dice into space dust - and plastic particles.

Actually, by the gaming system I currently play, you butched your roll major time and Saturn got sucked in by a wormhole, leaving my dice quite intact and well.
Nice try though.

Unfortunately, the wormhole was so close to the gravity of the Earth the boat is floating on, that it tunneled back around and Saturn appeared beneath your boat, scattering your dice across the seas where they can do no good.

How unfortunate that Saturn and Earth do not go well together and we now have a bunch of large rocks floating around space where Earth used to be.
On the plus side, my dice survived the destruction, fortunately having been submerged in now frozen water.

You left out some really imprtant options, like "5 seasons of B5 on DVD."
Ahem, "The Interstellar Alliance sends rangers in a fleet of Whitestars to rescue the survivors of Earth (along with assorted frozen dice.) The Whitestars avoid being destroyed by the rogue planet Saturn by opening jump points inside its atmosphere, making good their escape."

Okay, so the dice and the White Stars have both abandoned the boat floating in space. Objective failed.

Oops. 
Still, if you've got a Whitestar, who needs a boat?

Its like one of those video game missions where you have to hold off an enemy army for fifteen minutes so they don't steal some priceless artifact of immense power. Why can't you simply use that artifact to wipe them out, rather than having to punch them in the face and push buckets of paint into them?
Its all in the mission objectives.
