    Default Return of the Voigtkampf

    Greetings, fellow Org members...

    After a long time of wandering and catharsis, I return to the Org, my chosen citadel.

    There might still be some people who remember me; I certainly never forgot Org and the respected allies, friends and comrades.

    I am curious to see how much Org has changed since I've last been here, first as a modest patron, later as a moderator, before life snatched me away from this place. I hope to be able to contribute to this wonderful place once again and I am looking forward to see all the old, familiar names once again.

    Excellent
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    We're different in some aspects. Many faces have left, new ones have joined. I like to think we're still the same in all the ways that matter.

    Welcome back Voigtkampf, it's good to see the Anger Shaman return.

    Thank you for your kind words.
    I am happy to see some old names here, and looking forward to get to know the "new" ones who themselves are now the blood and tissue of the Org; yes, I've been away too long.

    Now, if I should be as fortunate to find that lady frogbeastegg is still around these halls, I may renew my wows of courtship love and utmost respect.

    Oh wow, welcome back Voigtkampf.

    Good to see old faces around here.
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Thank you.

    It seems Org has suffered a great loss recently, as TosaInu-sama passed away... First I could not believe it, I reread some threads, but it seems it is really so... Its a great loss, and I am really saddened by these news. TosaInu-sama was a great, calm and respectable, kind and righteous man. He will be missed.

    I also read a hint of someone saying that this was a "second great member or Org who passed away within a year", I am afraid to ask, but I need to know; whom else did we lose?

    Welcome back.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    "The purpose of a university education for Left / Liberals is to attain all the politically correct attitudes towards minorties, and the financial means to live as far away from them as possible."

    I'm still here. New guide in the works too, first one in years and dedicated to the memory of TosaInu. He was a good friend; we were talking about Shogun II shortly before he passed away.
    Frogbeastegg's Guide to Total War: Shogun II. Please note that the guide is not up-to-date for the latest patch.

    I am well, thank you, my fair lady. It is good to see you again. If you could use any help with the guide, I stand, as always, at your disposal. I would like to contribute if possible and pay my respects to TosaInu-sama. PM me if you have any ideas on how I could be of assistance.
