EB Demotivators

[Fluvius Camillus]

Is the greek one a paused version of the start-up formation of Panion (historical battle)? Good pic!

[Mikhail Mengsk]

Didn't get it...

[Tellos Athenaios]

I presume it has some connection with "SPQR", "vanquished Romans", "Barcid", "Carthage", "victorious Carthaginians"....

Otherwise I am quite bored of all those "look my faction/culture be better than yours" posts/threads/demotivators/whatever.

Can't recall off the top of my head if the Greek one was Panion or Ipsos... I just wanted a quick, good shot of an Arche Seleukia army, picked the first historical battle I could find with a bunch of pike units.

Best one I've seen in this thread so far.

Even though the last two are (slightly) offensive, it's extremely funny (to me anyways)

[Mikhail Mengsk]

This thread is really going to became a romans-vs-antiromans.

[Jebivjetar]

It wont... Antiromans and romans just want to contribute

That's all

Thanks for being a catalyst with that line.

[Alsatia]

This is actually the first thread where roman and romaioktonoi spam (if it could be called spam... rather opinions) is actually tolerated.

[antisocialmunky]

Well, obviously its just for fun, its not the thread crashing that they sometimes do though usually the thread is far too gone from RvG to do anything about.

[Rahwana]

I found this thread is actually funny

Keep up guys....

If I posted a semi-political (at least an issue in the US) one, could everyone promise not to go into Religion/Politics rant mode and not kill the thread? If not, I won't post it (though you'd be welcome to pm me and yell all you want).

Don't want to break any EB board rules so I'm asking.

[K-Dogs]

Haha, I like this one, but isn't the elephant 2nd from the left just about to die?

I won't. i mean, it is De-motivators. i dont think anyone takes it seriously :P

[Watchman]

Though bringing Teh Funny and lulz is mandatory.

[mlc82]

It's not all THAT political, didn't mean to blow it up like a big deal, just wanted to make sure I wasn't violating any rules and don't want to inadvertently get the thread derailed! Keep in mind I'm in the US where this is still issue is still sadly debated fiercely.



Yes, I know this is REALLY stretching it considering ancient Greeks wouldn't have even given a thought to labeling human sexuality in such a way, it's just a fun way to stomp on some toes. Picked "480bc" since it's the date of the Thermopylae battle, probably the main reason Sparta has achieved timeless legendary status, even though they were prominent as well before then. ;)

Thebans would be the ones that would make more sense, but of course, they've been burned to the ground in EB's time.

Yeah, didn't think they fit with the EB part as well either. Of course I am using the ALEX mod as well...

Thebes was rebuilt almost immediately...


As for the Spartan demotivator, if you really wish to get technical, they were bisexuals/pederasts. Homosexual sex with grown males was taboo, from the history books I have read.

[mlc82]

they were bisexuals/pederasts.

The same crowd would go absolutely ballistic over either of these as well, so it works just the same. ;)
