(The bartix faction color is red, BTW)

Bartix; a land of mist beauty and yellow fever. Home to many bartixian tribes, they speak a strange languge that consists of grunting and and oinking. They are of Persix and scythix stock, they are very lean. Infact, they look like stick people. Bartix is a large island in the middle of the caspixian sea
.




PLAGIX HOPLITIX

Phlagix hoplitix are the basic unit of the bartix army, they are very fast and throw their 56 foo long pikes at people.Then they stab people pretty good once the fighting starts.





KATPRAKTIX

http://img72.echo.cx/img72/9466/kataprkatix4hd.png (http://www.imageshack.us)



The mighty Katprktix can fly over the head of the enemy and crush them.

Bartixian Trait:

True Bartixian:
This man is a true Bartixian, able to befuddle and bewilder the greatest minds of his age with his encoded messages while insulting them all with his superior mental faculties. His grasp of Bartixian heiroglyphics is unmatched. Woe unto those 20-watt light bulbs who dare oppose or insult him! For he will unleash a rain of alien spacecraft upon them from Uranix that will shag them like objects (Repeat FIVE Times)!

http://premium1.uploadit.org/DuxCorvan//bartix.jpg[/QUOTE]


Greetings, EB fans! This week’s preview will be of some of the more powerful bartix units.


Bartix war snake

http://img102.echo.cx/img102/7141/untitledsnake7rg.th.png (http://img102.echo.cx/my.php?image=untitledsnake7rg.png)

Bartix war snake...they are faster then cavalry, 3 feet long, and bite right threw any kind of shield. They are the bartix answer to RTW vanilla war dogs.

no type of infantry can attack them, They can take out entire armies before any one even tries to
fight back.


Bartixain duck riders


http://img283.echo.cx/img283/630/duck3hn.th.png (http://img283.echo.cx/my.php?image=duck3hn.png)


They scare elephants and cavalry. They also have an AP attack that allows them destroy any thing in their path. They cause instant routs and they come back to life after every battle. They are also built in “0”turns and cost 10 denarii.

Bartix battle ninja

(Picture of ninja waiting to flip out from behind a wall and kill some guy)

http://img168.echo.cx/img168/4426/ninja0ji.png (http://www.imageshack.us)






These guys are cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet. They are mammals and the filp out and kill people. A ninja once kiled a kid just because he opened a window. When they are not flipping out and kiling people, they are usually busy flying.

armoured *EDIT*

*EDIT*

Kataprktix II





They are huge, cause instant routs, and are a bright pink.

http://img286.echo.cx/img286/2164/bartixuranusdeathray2ru.png

The fearsome Bartix urANUS rayix is a fearsome weapon to behold, sitting on the Bartix homeworldix of urANUS. It is capable of zapping soldiers into pork scratchings, and turning nearby ones into tasty barbacue snacks for the starving Bartixan masses


The Bartix Kamikazix Squirrel unit, that stroms the enemy before being exploded by the Mind Rays from the Bartix King and thus splattering all over the enemy units making them all sticky and stuff and thus sabotaging their fighting effeciency!

http://img239.echo.cx/img239/7296/bartixking5dq.jpg

This is the bartix sacred-samuri-band, they like totaly stab people.

Y'know, i think that the immortal thread, "so what 'Bartix!?' should be made a sticky in the entrance hall, and made compulsary reading for all Junior Members. They should then take a test, where if they manage to remember five of the most memorable things from it that everyone knows, they get to be a member. Btw, stormy, i love your siggy.

Just to show the wonderful legacy that Bartix has left, i have looked on the "who's online" list, and at any one point in time, 2 people will be looking at "so what 'bartix'!!!?" and 5 people looking at this.

A wonderful legacy, from an utter nut.

Maybe one day, he will come back from Uranus and kill us all with a link to google, or with his secret weapon, from Uranus!!!

why did they close this thread over at twc? shouldn't EB have some say in what threads are closed in their forum?I brought it up on the mod forum, and the consensus was that it was funny but veered toward spam. Posts like "OMC!(Oh my Cock) It is YOU who is eating the mushrooms!!! HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!! :faints:" are generally not approved of at TWC, rightly or wrongly. I mean, stuff like that is just gibberish, and there were other posts like it. If people had kept on with the jocular historical arguments ("I'm ok with the heat seeking darts, but I would like to see some evidence for the one handed grip of the spears") and similar intelligible but silly remarks, then it probably wouldn't have been closed.

I still think that it should have been left open, but I was outnumbered.

One of the mods there wanted to give out warnings for the love of god Centurion Quintus is not a mod. All TWC mods (Urbanis Legio, Quaestor, Praetor, Consul, Dictator) have some kind of shield design on their user group graphic, excluding local mods (like Khelvan). Centurion Quintus is just a Civitates—somewhat comparable to the Guild's Senior Member honorific, although rather more dramatic—and he's only that temporarily and by mistake.

But enough of this. Let's not derail this thread from sheer silliness.

I still think that it should have been left open, but I was outnumbered.
Centurion Quintus is not a mod. All TWC mods (Urbanis Legio, Quaestor, Praetor, Consul, Dictator) have some kind of shield design on their user group graphic, excluding local mods (like Khelvan). Centurion Quintus is just a Civitates—somewhat comparable to the Guild's Senior Member honorific, although rather more dramatic—and he's only that temporarily and by mistake.

But enough of this. Let's not derail this thread from sheer silliness.

"YOU'VE ALL DRANK TO MUCH TAQUILAL (MEXION BOOZE) NOW LETS GET ON WITH F**KING SUBJECT WHAT UNITS DO BARTIX (IGNORE SPELLING MASTAKE'S) AND WHAT EVER FACTION REPLACES ARMENIA WHAT UNITS DO THEY HAVE?"

ahum... sorry.

I'd like to point out that 1: the ninjas have been forgotten,
2: the special "zipper" building has been overlooked,
3: the bush and musithians are missing,
4: powerful units like the Asiartix Taxeis (light militia infantrix), Pantortix Phalargitix (succesorix levy infantrix), the Bartix Spears, and Indo-Greek Hoplix have been left out,
5: and probably most famous of all, the Bartiox Hypaspix and the Xaxifaxiphrataxis are nowhere to be seen,
6: there should be a second version of the Kathaphraix.

I think it is appropiate to have the Bartix faction in an alliance with Armenia. Also, there are rumors that Bartix might have been affiliated with the twilight zone. You might want to investigate that.

The king of Bartix should be able to kill squirrels with his only mind. It is of grave importance that this doesn't get overlooked. And don't forget one of the flags of Bartix (they've got plenty):

http://bartix.rze.pl/gr/f/logo.gif

The story has it that there were numerous trolls roaming around in Bartix. However, even the sources don't know for sure.

To preserve the highest rate of historical accuracy, the above suggestions need to be implemented as fast as possible.

Ninjas can kill anyone they want! Ninjas cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These guys are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this ninja who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the ninja killed the whole town.

Rodion Romanovich
06-27-2005, 18:59
From Wikipedia, the free dictionary that ANYONE can edit! ~D

Bartix

This article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it! CLICK

The isle of Bartix had went through it's first golden age in the 3rd century BC. After having kept up trade connections with the greeks - who called the isle "Atlantix", they were cut off from all such contacts by the fall of Alexander the Great's empire, and the internal fighting between the diadochi. Bartix is often confused with Baktria, another important empire on the mainland near the isle.

The Bartix army, based around the plagix hoplix and their fearsome pikes used not for stabbing but for slashing, chopping moves much like swords were used by European armies of the time, grew powerful thanks to implementing the Persian cataphracts, converting them to the famous bartix katapratix. Thanks to this army, Bartix even managed to get a foothold on the mainland for a short period, which tragically ended by the death of the Bartixic king Alexandrix in 250 BC. After this, the empire experienced a time of destruction and internal rivalry, until finally in 220 BC not only the Bartixian tribes, but also the entire isle, was destroyed. It's from here that the tale of Atlantix, famous from Greek mythology, originates.

CULTURE
The Bartixian culture is well-known thanks to new archaelogical discoveries of pots found along the Indian coast in 2005 AD. Bartix decorated their pots with what we would call "wireframe graphics". Thin lines were favored, and humans depicted in the Bartixian art where often thinner than in contemporary greek and roman art, where anatomical correctness is favored. New science however suggests that this might not be because the Bartixian despised realism, but on the contrary that this means the Bartixian people in fact actually where thinner than greeks and romans of the time. This theory is supported by new ancient images of the plagix hoplix found by the scientist Abok Asix, and is gaining more and more popularity among scholars.

The Bartixians were also famous for a special type of art referred to as "smilix", which were mixed up in texts, and often only showed a stylized version of a face or facial expression to enforce the message of the text. During the late Bartixian golden age, these symbols were often overused.

The scientist Abok Asix has also here carried out an ambitious study, and claims that the modern Smilies originate from this Bartixian tradition. Smilix where adopted by the romans after their conquest of Mesopotamia during the reign of Trajan. We can assume that what in roman sources is called "smilii" are indeed the same thing as the Bartixian smilix.

THE TIME AFTER 220 BC
Although the Bartixian empire succumbed to internal fighting and possible also a natural disaster which made the isle sink into the ocean, the Bartixian empire no longer appears in any sources. Tactitus mentions the Bartixians in his Germania as "a determined people who dress themselves in short skirts - both men and women" He also states that: "the Bartixians used weaponry similar to the dacian falx", but one may question the correctness of this passage, because we know today that the Bartixians lived on an isle in the Indian ocean. Tacitus might have confused the Bartixians with the Roxolani, who also liked the letter "X" very much, and are known for using the "falx" in combat. Traces of a plagix hoplix sarrisix suggests that the Bartixians used phalanxix warfare instead of falxix and swordix. Dio Cassius briefly mentions that: "This island [Bartix] was involved in trade with the Roman empire in the 4th century BC", but apart from that no roman history writers even mention the isle.

Although Bartix has been forgotten for many thousand years, the recent discoveries outside India has opened the eyes of the historians all over the world and Bartix is now one of the most active fields of historical research. Also entertainment have found an interest in the mighty Isle. This new interest can, among other places, be found in new games and modifications of existing ones, including Europa Barbarorum.

06-27-2005, 19:41
Mmmm, no mention of the mysterious 20 watt light bulbs found in a wreck near the ancient Brooklix seaport, along with a variety of shaggin' objects...

Besides, that version of Bartix end is wrong, the truth is -as the expert Abok Asix has stated- that they "LOST BECAUSE KING HAD THE PLAGUE AND HE HAD NO HEIRS".

Now he's very busy in his last research, "trying to find out why there is so called "paint hasn't been used since before purchasing you pc".

Rodion Romanovich
06-27-2005, 19:48
Yeah, I forgot the light bulbs :embarassed: . In fact there is a connection between Bartix and Alexandrix Volta, who later invented the 20 watt light bulbix. I also forgot the Bartixian connection with Hannix. After the battle of Zama, Hannix fled to his seleucid friends. But what isn't known to most people is that he also spoke to the Bartixian king. According to Livy, he said the famous words from your signature...

What's more, if you apply some simple mathematical operations on the letter indexes in "Bartix", the words "Sophia", "Mary Magdalene", "Holy grail" and "Da Vinci Code" are yielded.

You all know how during the general's speech, we get a close up of the units taunting the enemy? Well, you guys could record new taunts for the Bartixian units! You know, the usual "You 20 watt lightbulbs!", "Romanix is an asshole! (REPEAT 5 TIMES)", and "You like to shag the object!"

The Bartix:Total War mod should play faster than the regular game. Say, something like you have 200 turns before Bartix sinks into the sea, so better conquer with all due speed. The urANUS death ray and the war snakes should make it relatively do-able.

My first post on the Aboix thing. Is it just me or is the King of Bartix growing saner and saner by the post! Maybe he moved from his house that had lead-based paint chippings in it.

Another idea, is that Aboix had this all planned out and was hoping to make tons of money off action figures, t-shirts, and Nike shoe deals.

The Confidentix are a mysterious lot, amongst the elite of the varied bartixian mercenaries. Not much is known about them, as they are always shrouded under a Bartixian black veilix mysterix*, giving away nothing of their equipment to their varied enemies, until it's too late. Sometimes they might carry Phlagix hoplitix style equipment, enabling them to stab people pretty good, sometimes fighting in Pandix methods, breathing fire or even using the fearsome 150ft pikes.

Historically, the Confidentix were a varied lot that sprung up into existence during the war resulting from the invasion of urANUS. These mysterious Bartixians would communicate in complex smilix messages, and, while offering their services to all nearby warlords and generals, only Bartixians could understand their meeaning. Near the end of the urANUS conflict the Uranians managed to decipher one of these smilix plates enabling them to use a small number of Confidentix mercenaries, but these renegades were quickly decimated in the battle of Kangix lake, where an elite Bartixian Katapraktix wing flow over their 150ft pikes and crushed them from above.

*veilix mysterix is a cunning camouflage device designed by an ingenious Bartixian scientist Kikkulix Tippux before the urANUS conflict. The Confidentix adopted it quickly in order to stay hidden from the Uranian death ray and to prevent Bartixian peltastix's heat sekking darts from hitting them and pincushing them pretty bad.

valiant to the extreme--but eventually people sorta deciphered he meant Baktria, by which time Bartix had been uncovered by archaeological expeditions under the Indian Ocean to have been an existent, historical wonderlandix that fell because its leader and heir and factioners all died of the plagix, or something to that extentix.

Bartix transcends all Mods! ^_^ Abokasee has created a legend. Remember how gamers could laugh at their own inside jokes that no one uninitiated into the game could understand? Well, Bartix has found its way into the RTW joke mythos...
