Ahhh the dangers of incredible patriotism

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

[AntiochusIII]

I'm sorry Patriach, but the fact that the parading soldiers are wearing purple berets is just hilarious.

I know the hoplites used to love color back in the day but, you know,

Purple is considered a gay/campy colour.

Purple is considered a gay/campy colour.

What are you saying?

I believe SFTS's rules apply here:

Don't die.
No fat chicks.

I told you that.

Well, whether they're wearing purple berets or not, I bet they'd kick our asses anyway with their Greek killing firepower and leet combat skillz :P


Patriarch, are you going to be one of those tough sons o' *******? Don't become too much of a machine :P

[The_Doctor]

What are you saying?

Nothing, I am just answering Beirut's question why AntiochusIII was laughing at purple berets.

[IrishArmenian]

Great people. Armenia and Greece have a large amount of military diffusion (Training and tactics especially) and you might fidn yourself training or beign trained by some Armenians.
I was an NCO for a Greek once, good guy, good soldier too.

[renfaire] AAHHHH! He's wearing the Queen's color! Sack him! [/renfaire]

[Banquo's Ghost]

I don't understand why the colour purple should be considered "gay" apart from in the original sense.

And Greek soldiers are so tough, they can dress like this:



and no-one dares snigger.

Patriarch in 6 months?

[IrishArmenian]

[Geoffrey S]

Nothing is wrong with purple!

Are you really an officer?
