Subotan: You'd be amazed what a crazed person can do despite what happens to them. Sheer ferocity could certainly allow a soldier to take a javelin in the chest and take it out then throw it back. Granted they won't live long afterward but hey, the other guy's gonna be unnerved.

I don't use it, just a penis anyways.

PENIS DEAL WITH IT. (With your right hand, ba-dum-TISH)

Wait, does that mean you are popping your eyes at your own penis.

Narcissist... :P

I would humiliate you with my Arab half, but, since my faith* teaches me otherise, I'll just tell you what I put that on there for

:

I was basically saying saying to myself: "Rilder, what are you doing?......?"

what came after was too rude to put on, and would get me banned (seeing that I recently got a warning for jabbing Bill O'reilly**). so I just put the inquisitive sign in place of that.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Anyways:

regardless of the gaesatae using drugs or not, the point is, I do not see a genuine reason why anyone needs to use the loincloth stuff, besides satisfying mothers. my people have had a tradition of going round the ka'bah naked before, and besides, If there is one thing I have had to learn, is that nudity is not something that is truly shameful, nor need it be censored if it refers to people of the same gender.(in theory; different people have different tastes, but I digress). I also trust most people (Rilder aside) are sufficiently responsible people to not have any psychological isssues with naked gaesatae, regardless of tastes in RL.*

Slighty OT:There are Celtic deities dedicated purely to drinking and intoxication before battle. The Celts practice of trephaning points to pain numbing drugs/potion/herbs; they included surgical instruments like probes, retractors, saws, etc...all of which are quite advanced in design for sophisticated medical operations, etc...if they could do successful surgery they had to have employed drugs and other very strong pain medicines.

About the nudity patch, it up to the parent to decide for the kids what they should see and not see, but for me I'm too hardcore historical. If nudity was historical then its going in my game regardless.

Why does one have to follow the other? As far as I know, there were no good anesthetics in Europe (at least after the ancient era) up until the discovery of Nitrous Oxide. A lot of people suffered terribly under that knife.

Many ancient cultures practiced surgery and medicine with nothing better than wine and herbs. Surgery does not imply painkillers. Many people back then were more accustomed to pain in their daily lives than us anyways.

I'm just gonna ignore this debate and answer the OP's question.

No, I do not use the modesty patch. The EB Team meant for them to be naked, so, they're naked. I am not offended or made uncomfortable by pixeled genitalia.
I wouldn't play EB when girls are around anyway, and as long as I explain that it's due to historical reasons, my parents are fine with it.

Provide sources that something didn't happen? Sorry, it doesn't work that way. You have to provide the source if you make the assertion, which in this case is that they took drugs. I made a topic on this subject a while back, specifically asking for sources on this very subject. Guess what the consensus was.
