Sorry guess the ressurection makes me behave different from normal.

Here I think I can make you a drink if this ressurection carries on a bit longer, a little more rubbing ought to do it...

And Efstratios and Hypatios walked hand in hand off to the local inn, and weren't seen again for quite some time. But mercifully, no one here had to hear about it.

So....good army eh? Got a good sword to go with it

Oh right that's over now...

Anyone got any ideas on the meaning of Machonios? If I google it I either get one of my posts or the list of Byzantine names from the SS mod at TWC

**Askthepizzaguy** · 06-12-2008, 10:25

you mean Monomachos?

Mono means one, and macho means manly. So I am one manly guy with one hell of a good army, if you catch what I'm throwin. Which apparently you do.

MOVING ON....

edit: as for Machonios... you got... I dunno. Something greek and manly I guess.

Seeing as some of you wondered about their last names (with reserves...) :

Eirinikos : "Victor of peace"
Monomachos : "Strength of one"
Chrysovergos : "Goldsmith"

I don't think ATPG could have gotten a more perfect last name for his avatar...

Actually, his name sounds like an ad for the US army...

Is it entirely possible that I have the greatest (7 asterisks) name ever conceived on God's Green Earth???

Now bow before your lord and master Efstratios Monomachos, The Grand Army with the Strength of One. That's right, I am the lone warrior who can beat the living rectal excretion out of Rebels, Turks, Venetians, Sicilians, Hungarians, Catholics, Muslims, Jews, heretics, and just plain guys from Montana! I don't need to command a vast and noble force, I can ride my personal bodyguard out onto the field, unsheath my massive sword, and impale your soldiers lengthwise, hacking them all to tiny bits and sneezing their remains back in your direction.

I am an army of one.

Cue the music:
Be all that you can be in the Byzantine reserve! HOW ABOUT IT?
