    Default Have you ever wondered...?

    Here's an interesting concept for a thread. Everyone wonders about some of the wierd things in RTW. A denarii for your thoughts...
    And no haters. This isnt a ranting thread. If you want to complain about CA or loadgame bug or whatever, go away.

    I'll go first.

    Have you ever wondered... if the Senate, out of boredom, assigns itself some missions if the other three Roman factions are gone?
    ...if the Senate ever outlaws itself because they failed a mission?

    Have you ever wondered... if the Moon People are going to be in the expansion pack?
    ...if CA is going to create a hatmaker for Roman factions to protect them from the stares of the Moon People?

    Have you ever wondered... what goes through the mind of the spy you sent to the Amazon settlement?
    ...if he fakes his own death so he can have some "R&R"?

    Have you ever wondered... if Head Hurlers get their heads at the local market? "Hmm.. no, too squishy. No, too unripe. Ah! Perfect!"

    Have you ever wondered... if the handlers play fetch with the war dogs when they're bored?

    Who cleans up after the elephants around the campground?

    If the Senate army will ever leave Italy?
    If the Egyptians will ever be the first faction destroyed?
    If the Greeks will ever be able to fight off the attacks of the Macedonians and Romans?

    Have you ever wondered... if the handlers play fetch with the war dogs when they're bored?
    If the war dogs accidently bite off their handlers hands?(Then they wouldn't have any hands to handle them with!)

    If the naked fanatics actually wear clothes at home?

    Why do infantry men all have the same colured hair? Do they all go to the same hairdressers?

    Why no-one bleeds in RTW?
    When men die, they fall down and turn grey immediately? It woulld take a while for them to rot.

    Why the general's ancillaries disappear in an ambush? Surely if it was an ambush, they'd have no time to get the non-warriors out of the battlefield? Were they ever really there? cue x-files music

    I wonder how they fit a whole army on a single bireme?

    Admiral: YOU, drop the oars. Use this guy as a paddle, for we need space, pronto!

    I wonder if smart/trained/experienced/elite ladder-climbing wardogs are possible in the XPack?

    Captain: Sir! The wardogs are climbing the ladders on all sides! We are doomed!!

    General: NEVER!!! Release the flaming rats to discombobulate them!

    later...

    General: ::whew:: Those flaming rats saved our hides. Call up the Hillmen and let them have their share of the roasts....
