The most hilarious thread on 'poly!!

My martial tendencies are becalmed by laughter... for the moment.

Oooohhhh, that's passed... uh, Voxians, how can I say this... hmm... oh, yeah, that's it: BUH-BYE!!!

How about "mug of Grog" or "bowl of Grog"? Grog sounds like an alcholic version of gruel.

Actually, grog is rum cut with water, so if son of Grog will grow up and will become stronger than Grog, he should be named Rum!

Imagine, how would GS introduce him to us: Rum, a stronger Grog!

Donegeal, that's awesome!

Incidentally, in my current SP game, Grog will be getting his tank in 4 turns... but not a cool lookin' Panzer like that!

Appreciated, Donegeal.

Now that an immortal has died, is Vox going to change their operation's code name?

Nope. Our Immortals are still beloved.

I suspect that if you kill a Vox Immortal, The One Voice makes them a martyr, thus sustaining their immortality until they can be reborn. Do I have it right, Voxians?

But that is relevant only as long as there is a Vox to give them rebirth. Or will their spirits be reborn in Gathering Storm uniform once we control Vox's lands?

Ok - but then what I don't understand is that if you are so confident of this, why is it taking you so long to play your turns?

Because for some strange reason, we didn't have a battle plan for a war with our supposed friends drawn up in advance and ready to kick off on a moment's notice.

That doesn't sound right for the Gathering Storm. Perhaps you should be the Idling Storm, or the Thumb-Twiddling Storm instead.
