Let's say you were a disaffected young person in late 1970's New York. Some guy named Cyrus from Gramercy invites you to a conclave of thugs and miscreants. Whose colors would you wear?

Can you dig it?

Fun fact: The Warriors was based, at least in part, on Anabasis by Greek philosopher Xenophon. In before Kyriakos.
 
Well, considering that I am as we speak sitting here in boxers and a t-shirt, I guess "Relax in your pajamas with the Riffs" fits best.
 
Being Persian I got excited to see Cyrus mentioned in the OP, but as he wasn't actually on the list I didn't vote for anybody.
 
thought it said baseball furries.
 
are the dastardly Rogues the ones who killed Cyrus and blamed the Warriors?

The head bad guy played Eddie Murphy's former partner in crime in 48 Hours
 
Yeah.

I haven't read the Anabasis/Kyrou Anabasis (ascent of Cyrus). I know it is about the one myriad (10 thousand) Greek mercenaries who were employed by Cyrus in his war against his brother Artaxerxes over the Persian throne.

Xenophon also wrote an account of the Apologia (speech in defence of himself in court) of Socrates, along with the more famous one by Plato.
 
How much would you all pay us for me and Kyriakos to have an ultra-nationalistic one on one debate over Greece/Persia?
 
I don't think it is nationalistic at all. I am sure i would still be interested in the (specific) Greek stuff i now am, if i was Persian (much like Cyrus was too ;) ).

It is a bit like claiming that one has to be pro-Israel to think that Einstein was an important scientist.
 
I was joking though. :lol:

I have (in translation, mind you; I studied some Latin but never ancient Greek) and it's a pretty badass story. There's a reason why it's been ripped off so very many times.

It basically goes "Welp, here we are, surrounded by enemies a hell of a long way from home, and the same guys who just murdered our leaders under a parley said they'll let us go if we'll only lay down our weapons. All right men, let's take a quick vote. Anyone trust those guys to let us go? No, thought so. Let's elect a new officer corps, armour up, and start walking..."
 
What option is the closest to starting a clan with VR and shooting squirrels for dinner/anyone under 30 who sets foot on the lawn?
