Nah, back from being away. The GM said he would find replacement players for both my MD and NE games. I guess he didn't.
Planning on joining other games?
Originally posted by GottschalkThen prepare for a long battle. Defeating the Horde will not be as easy as waltzing through undefended Saxon and Bavarian provinces. If victory is not to be mine, then I shall die a death worthy of an epic. The legend of the Great Khan shall be re-told through the ages.
Khan, do you understand NOW why I offered to forego a spot in the winning coalition? I can't speak for anyone else, but Aquitaine will not sign a victory coalition until Castile says there's been enough fighting. If that means the complete destruction of the Horde, I will understand, given the abuse you have heaped upon him.
I'm reading Warfare In The Ancient World by Brian Todd Carey. Fascinating!
"Warfare In The Ancient World explores how civilizations and cultures made war on the battlefields of the Near East and Europe between the rise of civilization in Mesopotamia in the late fourth millenium BC and the fall of Rome. Through an exploration of twenty-six selected battles, Brian Todd Carey surveys the changing tactical relationships between the four weapon systems - heavy and light infantry and heavy and light cavalry - focusing on how shock and missle combat evolved from tentative beginnings in the Bronze Age to the highly developed military organization created by the Romans. This is the first part of an ambitious two-volume study of the subject. The second volume, Warfare In The Medieval World, will examine the evolution of warfare through the medieval period and conclude with the introduction of reliable gunpowder during the Thirty Years' War."
Excellent reading, great battle maps.

Originally posted by eagles54I poke sheep, actually, not goats. And I know that mighty warriors do not flee from a chance to participate in mighty wars such as the ones in Kharne!
And what does a goat-poker know of mighty warriors?
Here's some training from A Mighty Warrior himself! Ignore the teen girls.

Originally posted by eagles54Oh right. This is the MD thread, not the DL thread. All right. You are A Mighty Warrior here. But only here!
