You dream in M2TW graphics.
Re: You've played MTW2 too much if...
When you THINK in M2TW graphics while being conscious and awake! :dizzy2: (the shadows of the leaves of a tree outside made me think of the graphic shadows of troop movement when zoomed in through the grass, looked like it exactly).Originally Posted by Grimmy
When you see a piece of land outside with lots of grass and nature objects, you're thinking of possible battle situations, battle tactics to use.
When you see a mouse or rat in a building you think the place is infected with the plague.
When you imagine a green marked field around you, thinking that's the only places you can get to within 2 years (or 1 or half a year depending on your time scale :P).
When you imagine a yellow marked field around somebody else.
When you imagine to see your environment from an overview where you see the trees swinging like heck.
When you are considering taking horse-riding lessons.
When you are taking a spear/sword and armor with you to said horse-riding lessons.
When somebody tells you that you have no more time to finish a project, you suggest using MedManager to change the time scale of your savegame.
When you're starting to think there are only two seasons a year: summer and winter.
Emotion, passions, and desires are, thus peace is not.
Emotion: you have it or it has you.

When driving your car you find yourself yelling: "Fly like the wind!"
When a tourist asks map information from you, you demand ceasefire and trade rights in exchange.

I do this all the time! I used to think I was the only one who did this too...
Re: You've played MTW2 too much if...
...if while watching a history documentary or history movie with your girlfriend you tend to yell "The flanks, watch the flanks!!!"
...if you are afraid that the girl you date will give you the "wife is a wretch" trait and you'll lose popularity.
...if you can't look at map of Europe without wondering about those strange borders.
...if you are mad at your girlfriend (Scottish) because her ancestors broke their alliance with you.
Re: You've played MTW2 too much if...
I am already infected with the above. please save me!
additional points:
* You keep looking for mercenaries to hire.
* And you get angry when the confused foreigners refused to dress in funny clothes and be hired (those darn Scots/German Knights/Swiss Pikes/Sami Axes/Turkopoles/<insert your favourite mercenaries>)
* You keep wishing that you can get rid of someone by forcing them to walk across the straits like you did with your unwanted diplomats, princesses and agents.
* You keep thinking that any problems can be solve by the fury of your sword/longbows/crossbows/guns/catapults/balistas/spears/<insert one favoured weapon of your choice>
* When you are mounted (on horse/bike/anything), the first thing you thought of was charging, the second thing was charging, the third thing was charging, the fourth was....
* You got so inspired by the siege battles that you open up the "Kingdom of Heaven" so that you can watch (young) Balin battling Saladin for Jerusalem at least 5 times, everytime.
* You have thoughts about trying and burning your younger brothers/sisters as heretics for disobeying you.
* (Probably redundant) You keeping thinking about tithing to church will inproves your relationship with the Pope/Church/God.
* You have problem using normal words to insult people and have to keep using the M2TW pre-battle speech.
* You think of home-improvement as upgrading your castle and wanting to see more exotic units.
* You start thinking of people in terms of anciallaries and traits.
* And if they don't match up you start creating it for them
* like me
* Ideal philosopher? Niccolo Machiavelli Favoured Quote? Niccolo Machiavelli Current reading? The Prince.
* (Married Men) - You have problem with "the horn", and the only way that your wife can get you "the horn" is by doing pre-foreplay preparation of marching pikemen, charging knights and archers shooting.
* You have no interestin life anymore, only in the total destruction of Spanish/French/English/Turkish/<insert your hated fraction>
* You standard response to foreign wars was "Why don't we massacre everyone so that we can get high fear factor? "
* You inspire yourself to do sport by pretending that you are one of your favourite unit.
* You pickup a weapon or make shift weapon and start hanging around in bad neighbourhood, looking around for some rebel to bash so that you can get experience point.
* M2TW terms starts to replace your own language. For examples "What fraction are you from?"

Re: You've played MTW2 too much if...
You've played MTW2 too much if you start making references in a real history discussion. For example:
Teacher: "Medieval times were quite rough on the commoner..".
Me: "Yes, it must have been annoying taking so many years just to travel from France to Denmark..."
Teacher: "What?"
Me: "What was really interesting, was when the Pope got killed by an Assassin and got replaced with a Spanish Cardinal, causing tension between the church and the Danes."
Teacher: "Wait, what are you talking about..."
Me: "Actually, what i wanted to ask you about, was when Denmark had taken Jerusalem back from the Mongols, how did they manage to maintain a siege there for so many years without any supply lines?"
Teacher: "........Get out of my classroom."
"Don't mind me, i happen the have the Insane trait....." -Me
