    Wink building descriptions

    Has anyone else noticed how halariously funny the building descriptions are for some of the factions? Anyways I thought they were great. I can't get enough of them. Thanks a lot, what an awesome mod.

    Your kidding me? No one else has noticed or read the building descriptions after the have been built?? (In the constuction tab that comes up at the beggining of each turn?) hmm. Odd.

    I believe Teleklos wrote a lot of those. It is a nice lighting up effect. Most people who read them seem to like them, but there have been some fans that don't...

    I always read them.

    And depending on the time of day... that is either coffee in that cup or port. Oh yeah, a coffee cups worth of port. (I'll scheize that towne from those $#@^ elethor... eleturei ... rebels!!

    I was playing an Epirius Campaign once and one of my generals got the gynogymnasticosi (?sp?) trait. Which meant he was the official women's bath inspector. The description is much funnier. I STILL laugh about it.

    Long may the barbarians continue, I pray, if not to love us, at least to hate one another,seeing that, as fate bears remorselessly on the empire, fortune can offer no greater boon now than discord amoung our enemies - Tacitus

    Haha, yes I always loved them too. It really makes things a little bit lighter and easier to digest. Good work!

    Yeah, the Sweboz got some really funny descriptions. I remember the one for the Sauromatae wooden walls was hilarious as well.

    I don't come here a lot any more. You know why? Because you suck. That's right, I'm talking to you. Your annoying attitude, bad grammar, illogical arguments, false beliefs and pathetic attempts at humour have driven me and many other nice people from this forum. You should feel ashamed. Report here at once to recieve your punishment. Scumbag.

    Yes, absolutly hilarious!
    I especially like the carthagian ones. I remember the one for the Grand Bazaar, I think, was something about: "Well yeah, some people may argue that small shop owners are forced out of business, but hey, I can get 8 sacrificial knifes for only 4 shekel!! What I need 8 sacrificial knifes for? I don't know, probably don't need them at all, but they're only 4 shekel!!!!"
