I doubt the developer console is available to anyone who isn't playing on a PC.

AC = Armour Class -- Dungeons and Dragons way. I think all Beth games use AR for Armour Rating though.

That 'pooch' makes me think it's a mabari turned vampire or possessed. I wouldn't want to meet that... creature.

Here is a mod that I think is worth checking out.
Falskaar By Alexander J. Velicky
[flash=720,480]http://www.youtube.com/v/BxWpfz06sgw[/flash]
What is Falskaar?
Falskaar is a new lands mod that adds a brand new Expansion-sized land for the player to explore! It is lore friendly as far as not violating lore, though it doesn't exist in lore. (In other words it fits in perfectly. There are no purple unicorn ponies, or light sabers or anything ) At the end of the 2nd era, an expeditionary group wandering the hills of Skyrim finds an old Dwemer ruin. They explore it only to discover a mysterious portal of unknown origin. They cannot restrain their curiousity, so they activate the portal and pass through. They are met with the desolate, polar region of Falskaar, a small Island northeast of Tamriel. It's freezing cold, snowy everywhere, and void of almost all life. Through a miraculous turn of events, the land is transformed into a warm, inhabitable region. At least the Southern half of the island is, while the Northern half remains desolate and cold. The people flourish and develop. Over the next 600 years there are inevitably wars, conflict, and peace. However things take a turn for the worse, as people begin to flee the land, moving back to Tamriel. At present the people hold themselves together under the virtuous leadership of King Agnar Borvaldur, who's family has managed to keep peace for over 100 years. Though that peace, may soon be coming to an end...
Features
Upon completion Falskaar will feature: - 20-30 quests, including a 9 quest long main story, 5-10 side quests, and a big heap of miscellaneous objectives! - New items including new books, recipes, and potentially a couple weapons and a set or two of armor. - New spells and dragon shouts. - Potentially new birth stone powers. - A bard with a whole array of brand new songs! - Potentially custom exploration/battle music.
Falskaar will be fully voiced by a team of 31 hand picked voice actors!
Mauri Majanoja, Mick Mize (Currently performing in Cirque du Soleil!), and Robert S. Benjamin return from Deimos.
The cast also features Casey Mongillo who was in Red Dead Redemption, and Michael Johnston and River Kanoff who have both appeared in Xbox Live Arcade games!
I mean FULLY voice acted. No Vanilla voices are used! While in the land of Falskaar, every single bandit, guard, farmer, or townsperson you meet will be custom voiced for this project by my cast.
FAQ
When is the project going to be finished? My current goal for release is September of this year! That's right, no 5 year wait for this mod!
Are you adding new weapons, creatures, or foliage? Possibly new weapons, but no new creatures or foliage! I'm focusing on other areas like level and quest design for this one.
How big is your team? It's mainly just me! I do have a small group that does QA testing, and some people have helped by writing one or two books, then of course there's the voice actors. But, I do all the CK work! I've written all the dialogue, quests, every script, implemented everything, designed all the levels and worlds and managed the team! Yes it is a lot to do, but I manage by working 6-10 hours every single day! I sure love doing this.
How big is the land? Falskaar is about the size of 2-3 holds in Skyrim. Take Whiterun hold, The Rift, and Falkreath Hold and you get something roughly the size of my land.
Where will the mod be available at? As of right now it will be a SkyrimNexus exclusive. The Steam Workshop currently would not support the mod, but if it does at the time of release, it will be on there as well.
How long have you been working on this? I started writing the story/lore in October of last year, shortly after releasing Deimos. I then started putting it all together the instant that the Creation Kit came out on Feb 7th!
Why do you do this!? I'm here modding so I can get a job at Bethesda Game Studios. I think they are the best game design company in the world and I want to be right there working with all of them! That's why I may come off a bit 'showy'. I'm here to gain support so they can see my work and I can get a job. But of course I wouldn't be doing any of this if I didn't also have an absolute blast doing it!

At €19.99 I find Dawnguard horribly overpriced. I'm not going to buy it until it drops below €10

I'm looking forward to it. It's a mod I definitely want to try when I'm finally composing my Skyrim fan-fic.

Wow. All these screenshots look a lot better on my new flat screen compared with my old 'fat screen' It made everything too dark. Now I can really see the brilliance of the colours as they were meant to be seen.

I wasn't talking about how they sound. I was referring to the actual language spoken, which is the closest you can come to the language spoken by the Vikings. And in Iceland they actually make new words instead of borrowing them from other languages. I only know of the Vatikan and the Armenians doing the same, or so I heard. Linguistically, 20 percent of the English language is French.

Only one country still speaks the language of the Vikings -- Iceland

Love those shots with the dragons. Reminds me of a movie -- Reign of Fire, I think it's called.

Really pretty shots. Nice outfits. Those skimpy ones aren't much good in a fight, though -- with all the vulnerable parts exposed like that. Fortunately, the game doesn't know that fact.
