Lol, alright. Then again, if Masada made me one, it would probably be a giant boot stepping on an innocent waffle.

The Upper Peninsula of Michigan, when he's not attending university. Yeah, that works. Reminds me of American Gods actually (even though the northerly stuff in that happened in Wisconsin :p).

The two are essentially equivalent anyway...

I didn't wanna say it.

Somewhat NES-related (or, I hope, more on topic than the rest of this): why is everybody giving up titles so easily? It's kinda disturbing...
 
Hi Sp.

As I know it, Agincourt was an EPIC FAIL.

They could have lured them out and charge them on their choice of land.
They could have fired fire arrows or crossbows into the small English defensive line.
They could have retreat and set up some smaller seige and pound them to pieces while their own longbows/crossbows defend.

The French king made a fool of himself and by charging into a killing field, his army got massacared.

Well the French King did what he though was correct under the circumstances:

The Nobles were the backbone of his army and without him the English would have outnumbered the French forces. (England knew this)
The Nobles were itching for a fight and would not allow the French king to retreat to favorable ground.
The King and his Nobles all thought they had the advantage, not in terrain, but numbers and tactics. (the latter proved to be wrong)
At that point, not many knew of the power of the English Longbow men. (though they did prove ineffective, but still terrified the troops)
Also, do not forget the mud.
Finally, the French King did attempt to lure the English, but the English refused to cooperate with the French and follow them into an ambush, because the English King knew he was vulnerable. So he chose his stand and waited until the French attacked, knowing the French would eventually.
 
Actually the French had a pretty decent plan at Agincourt, but the battlefield was too narrow to fully deploy.

See Bolded, plus parenthesis... They had good tactics, but was later proved to be wrong for that battle.

Stop whining. Just enjoy the peace while it lasts. :p

I felt there was not enough peace-time for me in BirdNES 1, so I'm pretty chuffed with that right now.
 
You could work on your BirdNES orders. ;)
