It's not possible for me so no DM's work for me. It should be interesting to see how we stand up against infantry.
 
Wow, you guys are gonna try and kill the Triumverate? That seems a bit silly. If I were one of you bigger guys, I'd hold back a bit and wait until one of the other big fish over commits to ensure a game clinching DOW :D

I'm pressed for time as of right now, but Robi I'll send you an updated PM tomorrowish.

Ummmm... DOW?

And is your answer to a no-DM agreement 'no'?
 
I think DOW= Declration of War
 
Well Robi D said yes, and he's in charge of their units, so umm, i dont think it matters right now

Ah, ok, cool thanks.

And I'd much rather attack riflemen than infantry. How many riflemen in IslamaWhomp? :mischief:
 
its annoying to observe this and do nothing...
 
Sorry, it was a general and vaguely rhetorical question.

The answer to the meaning of life, the universe, the number of rifles in Islamawhomp and everything is 42:)

edit- whether its me or mauer we argee to no DM's, since we have no troops to DM with its a straight forward case really
 
Can't we just leave Islamawhomp alone? It's had it's own personal jihad to fight with Azza, BCLG, Whomp, BCLG, Igloo and me again.

A little more won't hurt then, will it? :mischief:

Besides, I'll gift it to Sparta, it'll be safe with him - he hasn't lost a single city in this game, IIRC. :p
 
Im stubbornly refusing to touch cIV.. so thats unlikely. :)
Good point. Pitboss games take about 15 minutes to play and for you that might mean a missed opportunity to start a thread. :p
 
:p piffle, i just hate the move to 3D... pointless, but probably means my laptop will struggle to run it..

You're totally missing out. :p It's a blast.
 
I feel this is appropriate.

Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
"Charge for the guns!" he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.


2.
"Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Their's not to make reply,
Their's not to reason why,
Their's but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.


3.
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.


4.
Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air,
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army, while
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre stroke
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.


5.
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.


6.
When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wondered.
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred.

Man that was the poem the butler was stubbornly trying to recite when impersonating Raphael de la Getto in fresh Prince of Bel Air

Cannons to the right of them , cannons to the right of them, let's get some chicken and get busy!
