    Are you kidding me? I would love to replace standard voices with a whole slew of quotes from the holy grail.

    Let's see, what ones should we use, might have to slightly modify some.

    1 - Run AWAY! Run AWAY!! (retreating)
    2 - It's just a flesh wound! (rally troops)
    3 - Help! Help! I'm being repressed! (Selecting an army)
    4 - *crazy monk chantings, followed by noise of book hitting forehead* (Selecting priest on the campaign map.)
    5 - Bring out your dead! (Selecting assassin on campaign map)
    6 - A five ounce bird cannot carry a one pound coconut! (Selecting a merchant on the camp map)
    7 - He must be a king, he hasn't got *^#@ all over him. (Selecting the monarch.)
    8 - I blow my nose at you so called Arthur king! You and your silly English kkkkkknigits! (Selecting a french army)

    More suggestions would be nice.

    You have miscalculated a battle when.. You ask to settle it one-on-one the best against the best only to find that the otherside has Achilles and all you have is a stinking 7"10, heavily muscled, steroid driven, spear wielding Monster.

    Though what I do want to know (and I am not trying to get a warning etc. or be stupid); who would win: Achilles or a female he had scorned.

    You have miscalculated a battle when...

    You chose to attack after the enemy archers were out of ammo so they couldn't defend themselves.

    The enemy uses Elephants. Period.

    Your "Charge the horse archers into the Swiss pikemen" plan became the "Charge the horse archers onto the Swiss pikes" plan.

    You thought the tough guys in your retinue were going to help you.

    You sallied forth after taking the castle.

    Your Faction leader and Heir just died in the first charge.

    It turned out longbows can pierce armor.

    You were counting on God to smite your enemies.

    when you realise that a cavalry unit of 8 men and a 24 strong dog unit are your only unit left against most of the carthaganian elephants
