Not at all. I, for one, don't sit even 5 hours per week playing EB. AARs are fun, but they do not spell my whole life for God's sake.Quote:

I agree. We should stop this sensless argument. I apologize for my use of language and my anger. I had not intention of making enemies with anyone. I was only speaking my mind. I did not wish you make you an enemy Maion. You probably aren't a bad guy in RL. Again I am sorry, everyone.
Now, Back to the topic. I have done my research and decided....that these guys fit the WAAAAARGGGHHHH!!!
https://www.europabarbarorum.com/i/u...e_liguriae.gif
These guys can do just about anything. Hold the line, lobz de pointy 'fings, Shock the enemy, and never run. Eccelent morale and value. Cheap and useful infantry. Just how Gork 'n Mork likes em.
Edit: I just played a battle with these guys (full uprgade) against marian reformed legionaries (full upgrade) 1 unit V. 1 unit. The liguarians won, but just barely. 1 man left, before healing. I butchered the legionares. I have say then that the Gaemile Liguriae are equal in ability to the post marian reform infantry.
I find the way their speech is written rather lower class English (as in from southern Britain esp London).Quote:

The use of this accent (or is it a dialect?) is consistent with the class-sterotypes prevalent in Britain of stupid violent unwashed football fans. However I would argue it is a legitimate form of English and certainly not "imaginary" as maion seems to think it is.
I must say I share Maion's sentiment in desiring proper use of the forms of language but I concede that this is a chimaera, a somewhat elitist pipe dream, and adhering to "proper" forms is awkward and even unhealthy for language growth and development.
Its hilarious that orcs sound like poms (even in the LOTR films) and a thread on the most orc-like unti in EB is a fun distraction. Vote 1 mercenary wolf men.
Edit: the Clockwork Orange-spracht a page or so back was excellent, just excellent. Long live made up languages.
they should make a warhammer mod although i dont know if thats legal
which is why i'm having a tough time actually writing anything down for mine... sorrry!!!!:hanged:Quote:
