	Omens and Superstitions
		It was a omen of disaster to have a fl cat enter the house, have a snake fall from the roof into the yard, or for a beam of the house to split.
		If a bad omen had been observed then one could raise this matter at the beginning of the meeting of the senate or other political assembly and house might well decide to close for business for the day.
		Aware of the cynical way in which politicians might exploit omens, which they would report to the house, there was a clear distinction made between omens reported by others and such which revealed themselves suddenly.

	Mobhunter.com: After Omens
		Omens includes enough content to keep almost any player busy for a long time regardless of the amount of time they play or the style of play they enjoy.
		I think that people -should- have to pay attention to factions, but they should also be able to actually get involved in the storyline from day 1, rather than having to kill tons of things to raise a faction that may or may not make a difference in the end.
		Overall I think Omens is a good expansion, worth the money, and is much more solid and available than its predecessor, but I also think that it could use a good bit of tweaking and rebalancing.

		It stands well enough on its own that it doesn't really need the tag of 'Good Omens fanfiction', and although I would possibly recommend it as a work of fiction in and of itself I wouldn't say that it was core to the fandom.
		The Good Omens touches are most definitely still a part of the story - one line that stood out was "Shortly thereafter consciousness gave it all up as a bad job, and fled.
		This story has apples and crosswords and curry, and not all that much else, and yet it manages to be a pleasant snapshot of the two of them, as well as hinting at slash if you choose to see it that way.

		The chief representatives of this period were classical scholars who commonly employed wuxing and yinyang correlations, numerical calculations, and various techniques of divination to fathom the harmony and continuity of humanity, nature, and the ancestral spirits - and to forecast disruptions.
		For example, “Numbers of the Mystery” correlates the number five with the earth, the color yellow, fear, wind omens, tumuli, the naked animal (humankind), fur, bottles, weaving, sleeping mats, complying, verticality, glue, sacks, hubs, calves, coffins, bows and arrows, stupidity, and the center courtyard rain well.
		These include the assimilation of heterodox teachings and popular superstitions into commentaries and interpretations of the classics, the decline of the ruling house of Han, the popularity of portents and the rise of Wang Mang, and government reforms in taxation, punishment, division of land, and relations with barbarian tribes.

		Good thing then that the new EverQuest expansion, Omens of War, is in fact a very good expansion, and the people that already own it and aren’t reading this review are having a lot of fun with it.
		Like the last few expansions, EverQuest: Omens of War is geared towards the high level crowd, meaning 60 plus at the very least and 65-70 for the majority of the new content.
		Casual players might not find too much in this expansion for them, and Omens of War certainly won’t be drawing in anyone new to EverQuest, but for the target audience of seasoned EQ veterans, Omens of War will undoubtedly keep their (virtual) feet planted in Norrath for months to come.

		Omens of War brings with it a whole bunch of subtle changes to the system, but more significantly, a number of new, exciting zones will be open.
		Thus, smaller groups and raids can do content that they may not have been able to previously, due to size of guild or itemization.
