ETW, Where is the Comedy!

[Rufus]

American units say "yes lord" and "for his majesty" in the campaign.

Thought that was just in Episodes 1 & 2 of RTI? I'm playing Episode 3, the Revolutionary War, and I think they only say "yes, sir" and "march!"

They still say "sire" and "for crown and country!" in Episodes 3 and 4.

Is that comedy or deliberate provocation?

Sounds like to me they made the voices for use of a playable 13 colonies, before they came up with RtI and the whole protectorate thing.

CA is a British company

The U.S. started a succession war with me in the GC.

[Schiltrom]

The drunk trait: "I am drunk sir, and mark my words I intend to horsewhip your little green servants"... or something like that.

[Roy1991]

Hm, I think someone at CA was fond of the Dutch sentence 'Laat ze je tanden zien' (Show them your teeth) I heard that at least 15 times or so during every battle.

I like the strategic placement of some of the battle sound effects you hear over the load screen. Specifically, the commander yelling at his men to "load!" It's like my soldiers want my computer to run faster too.

[Rufus]

Anyone who has played as Britain: Do the infantry yell the traditional "huzzahs" before charging?

[ainamacil]

One of my generals, just sitting in Ireland, got an ancillary:

"Barber" which gave him a 5% chance of dying at the end of the turn

The quote said something about the barber's second passion being pies or something. Kind of an amusing reference.

I haven't played with the british all that much, but I do recall them yelling "Into the breach men!" when infantry is ordered to charge the enemy

[ZombieFriedNuts]

Not really deliberate comedy but a quote from the duke of wellington I thought was quite funny, curse my dirty mind. “Hard pounding gentlemen lets see who can pound the longest.” Tis on a loading screen I assume it has something to do with artillery

What's the difference between a succession war and a war?

[Sir Beane]

What's the difference between a succession war and a war?

A succesion war is caused when one faction can make claims to the land of another based on the dynastic inheritance of their monarch. Like the Spanish wars of succesion.
