	Necromantic Siege Engine
		Dragon engines are brutal combatants, willing to blast a battlement with a swooping diving blast of shadow breath, then landing on opponents and disgorging a squadron of undead warriors from their interior spaces.
		While the dragon engine does not require the difficult fusion of many separate parts that must work in unison, the enchantment of a container capable of holding and recharging its negative energy breath weapon is entirely as difficult a task as fusing disparate parts for a zombie ram or an ether tower.
		Necromantic siege engines are unnatural creations, built only to serve their masters, and have no natural place in the world.

	The Continuous World of Dungeon Siege
		Siege Nodes are 3D meshes created and textured in 3D Studio by artists, exported using a custom tool, and then checked in to source control for the game to use.
		From the beginning, the engineering team knew that the continuous world was going to significantly affect the engine and content design, and the core issue was numerical stability.
		Originally the Siege Engine was called the MSL (“Martha Stewart Library”) because it was all about stitching terrain sections together along their seams, borrowing vertices from one mesh to use in another, resulting in a large patchwork quilt.

	Dungeon Siege for PC Review - PC Dungeon Siege Review
		Dungeon Siege's physics system may be less robust than that of the Myth games, but its inclusion adds some tactical complexity, and it is consistently satisfying to watch your characters rain explosives on foes that are positionally disadvantaged.
		But the advantage of Dungeon Siege's system is that it allows players to just play the game in the manner of their own choosing and let their characters naturally develop the skills needed to accommodate that playing style.
		Dungeon Siege II: Broken World is an expansion pack that picks up right where Dungeon Siege II left off with an all-new campaign mode, a new playable race, more items to discover and a brand new multi-class character development system.
