Non-Catholics get no or fewer General`s speeches

[Fratinside]

"We should feel sorry for their horses for having to support such boney asses"
-Venetian general talking about the Mongols

"Have you tried the peas? They are very small and green. You should try the peas..."
-English king

I must say I look forward to hearing generals speeches and I always listen to them. I was going to post the one about the pixies as I heard it too but Knodddy beat me to it.

In the German version of the game I enjoy listening to [most] speeches too. I am playing the HRE and they have some mean & drunken Generals.

I am looking forward playing a Islamic faction now. I guess I won´t get the "where is all the beer at?" - question form a general.....

Well, prepare to be disappointed.
As far as I can see, only the HRE has long speeches.
Well at least the English have just 'one-line-speeches'.
(I loaded an 'german' save game in the english Version and suddenly the English General has more to say than just one sentence.)

PS: Though the german HRE speeches sound better than the one in the english version of the game.

I have been enjoying my French generals' speeches (some one lined, some go on for three or even four lines), even if they are all given in an 'outrageous accent'.

"I promise you loot, women, riches, glorrrry, uh... MORE loot, more women..."

As with Rome, it's the somewhat rarer, funnier traits that tend to win when it comes to speeches (I HAVE to bring my one prince that married a wretched Russian wife to battle to see if he comments on her), although I do still enjoy when I have to fight the HRE (who refuses to settle even though we barely engage each other anymore) and my generals go on about the 'sausage eating, beer drinking, Imperial pudding-heads'.
