    Spartan, I think tbh means "to be honest", or at least that's how I've seen it used. Rare to see, though.

    "My anda Temujin [Genghis Khan] has four hounds whom he brought up on human flesh, and kept in chains. They have brows of copper, snouts like chisels, tongues like bradawls, hearts of iron, and tails that cut like swords. They can live on dew, and ride like the wind. On the day of battle they eat the flesh of men. You see how, being set loose, they come forward slavering for joy. Those two are Jebe and Khubilai; those two are Jelmei and Subetai. That is who those four 'hounds are." [Jamukha`s reply to Tayang Khan; The Secret History of the Mongols]

    Problem is that they would all have to be Black Adder the First Quotes and the funny scenes require two quotes not one for example

    Having just one of those quotes in wouldn't be good, you need Baldrick and Black Adder's piece.

    This seems to got really out of control, although most of the quotes are funny!

    Although I would have to agree with a couple other people in saying that loading screen quotes would get boring and repetitive. I would prefer a cool way of loading, the loading bar could be experimented with and made nice and fun to look at. Or I think the best way to deal with loading screens is to go and get something to eat whilst you wait for it to load, or watch TV. or do any odd jobs you need to get done. the one addition i like about this medieval 2: total war is how the battlefield comes straight from the map (i only played rome: total war for a couple days, not sure if it was the same in that, correct me if wrong), i think that will interest the player.

    i still think getting a drink or getting food is the best way to deal with loading screens, it is just like comercials on TV, but you can't flick the channel

    whatever,

    we will see what happens

    thanks

    I agree, and well done on remembering that one, although I think the funniest Black Adder I quotes are the dialogues

    What did I miss?-Richard IV

    Oh Uncle Harry tried to kill Uncle Edmund-(The nine year old princesse supposed to be Edmund Black Adder's wife)

    Or better yet

    "Who is that slimmy fellow"-Richard III

    "I know not my lord I shall ask my son, Harry who is that?"-Prince Richard

    "It is your other son milord"-Harry

    purely for humours sake.. I think that every quote should be from Blackadder.. or Monty Python and the holy grail... or not?

    They dont have to be contemporary quotes do they? didnt they quote Winston Churchill in R:TW... or was that Call of Duty

    Just one quote from me..

    Soldier to Commander of Catholic army ready to descend on Cathar village: Sire.. but how will we know which are Catholic and which are heretics?

    Commander ready for slaughter: God will tell the difference when they reach heaven!

    (shockingly misquoted!)

    This one would fit well with M2:TW. It is the best one I have seen here so far IMO.



    Here is mine that I could dig up:


    "Also say to them, that they suffer him this day to win his spurs, for if god be pleased, I will this journey be his, and the honor thereof."

    Or, more simply:

    "Let the boy win his spurs"

    looks like they're in

    "I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."
