Watching the video of Medieval Madness I couldn't help but notice that the lights appeared to flash on and off very quickly. It could just be due to the quality (fps) of the video but now I am curious.
A lot of people use LEDs because they are brighter and last a lot longer but they do have their disadvantages.
When power is supplied to an incandescent bulb it brightens as the filament warms up and then dims as it cools. LEDs, on the other hand, turn on and off almost instantly.
I for one much prefer the look of incandescent bulbs as it does not feel like you are starring at a strobe light when you are playing.
Here is a cool video talking about the difference between LED and incandescent bulbs.
Skip to 2:01 if you are not interested in the electrical schematics portion....
