Thread: Native Language of EB Fans/Players/Members (Poll)

    Default Native Language of EB Fans/Players/Members (Poll)

    Curious as to the native language of the fans who play or plan on playing EB. No names will be listed here - just total number of votes. There's so much text in EB, that it's quite difficult to try and think about translations of things, but just in case we're curious about trying...

    I'll include some of the most likely ones here. Please forgive (or feel free to rant ) if I've missed any - 30 options were the most allowed though. Given the EB members I know of, and folks I see around the forum, I've made the choice of those 30 based on what I thought was likely, but who knows...

    I speak English, but my friends say I speak double Dutch.

    And you missed out the best language of all time (and the only non-native language I can sort of speak) LATIN!

    I speak English fluently, but my native language is Bartix. Why wasn't it included in the poll?

    By the way, what units will Bartix recieve? And who replaces Armenia?

    They will have Bartixian stormtroopers, armed with hand held ion lazers, remote controlled elephants packed with explosives, false teeth that are to be wound up and let loose at the enemy, either causing a route or chopping them clean in half, and the elite unit...

    Perhaps I will have to speak in my native tongue to get some answers:

    WHAT UNIT WILL BARTIX RECIEVE! AND WHO REPLACES ARMENIA!
