How did you learn about the ICBM we popped from a goody hut?

That throws our whole plan off now.

You all know about GS'es Chickens; what you don't know is how viscious our attack squid can be!

The Battle has started.
Yesterday our troops have made the first assault against Spain. In a first fast attack our superior Armys broken through the weak spanish defenses and have defeated the brave defenders of Leon.
General Zayxus and Generalfieldmashall Consul Zerialienguru are looking ahead with good hope for the next actions the spanisch are not as tough as we thought they said but ther is sure a lot more resistance in the next actions we want to take. "Maybe they still thought that we would only joke but this is a bloody jihad" said General Zayxus.

A courios event lead to the seizure of the city of Santiago in a very curious accident this city must have switched it's nationality. It was to late to stopp our troops then they were already on the way as we found out about this.

No one in Neu Demogyptica can understand what happend there because Gathering Storm was always deemed to be a friend to Neu Demogyptica.

The Battlesong:

Just a little warsong that our brave Ansar sing.

We rode in the morning,
Arnablanca to the west.
from the Dreizack Jungle outskirts leading down to old Leon.
For Mohammed and Borconia
We had taken up our swords
For the ashes of our fathers and the children of our sons.
For the ashes of our fathers and the children of our sons.

In the dry winds of summer
We were sharpening the blades.
We were riding to act upon the promise we had made.
With the fist and the dagger,
with the Spikeball on a chain,
We will suffer no intrusion from the infidels of Spain.
We will suffer no intrusion from the infidels of Spain.

We could wait no more,
In the burning sands on the ride to old Leon.
Like the dogs of war,
For the future of this land on the ride to old Leon.

Though they were waiting,
And they were fifty to our ten,
They were easily outnumbered by a smaller force of men.
As the darkness was falling
They were soon to realize,
We were going to relive upon their godforsaken lives.
We were going to relive upon their godforsaken lives.

We could wait no more,
In the burning sands on the ride to old Leon.
Like the dogs of war,
For the future of this land on the ride to old Leon.

We rode in the morning,
Arnablanca to the west.
from the Dreizack Jungle outskirts leading down to old Leon.
For Mohammed and Borconia
We had taken up our swords,
For the edges of our fathers and the children of our sons.
For the edges of our fathers and the children of our sons.

to be sung to the melody of the song: "The Ride To Agadir" by Mike Batt.

A pretty song.

We heard it this morning when we rode over that stack of infantry and pikemen, who were belting it out as loud as they could. But, I must tell you, our war anthem drowned even those loud voices out.

GhengisFarb™ · July 27, 2003, 13:20

Okay, that's it.... Less songs........ More fighting....

History Guy · July 27, 2003, 16:41

Well, we did some of that too. However, the Arabs had such trouble holding their song books and marching at the same time that they never saw us coming!

Darekill · July 28, 2003, 01:18

Oh boy!
I congratulate you on defeating some of our decoy troops.

It was mostly Veterans of the Lux Wars that were willing to go to battle one last time and to die in honour before their life ends without beeing able to fight. They felt dishonoured by the Luxians who avoided fighting at all. Nevertheless those guys must have come to age and were probably no match for your well trained regular troops.

We tried to hold them back and stand in the second row becaus we knew something like that could happen but they were so eager to go to war we could not hold them back. At least they are in paradise now because they fought and died proud and in a wariors way. Mind you, however many ND-Warriors you might slay there will be two comming up behind them to avenge them.

Just you wait when our Ansar-warriors do the job. there wont be no holding up songbooks this time.

BigFree · July 28, 2003, 01:58

Just you send them Prancing Ponies our way, we'll teach them how to sing!

History Guy · July 28, 2003, 11:24

Eeeeee-heeeee-heeee. You can say that again, Big Free.

Watch this Arab sing! (pokes Arab prisoner with hot iron poker)

"Jubilate! Jubilaaaate! Jubliate Domino! Jubilaaaa-aaaate! Jubilaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-aaaaaaa-aaaaaate! Jubilate Domino!"

What did I tell you?

Dr. Pinch, the thumb-screw and hot iron poker salesman

Darekill · July 28, 2003, 11:31

I would not laugh to loud if i were you....

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 15:28

Afraid he'd wake the sleeping chicken?

GodKing · July 28, 2003, 16:41

But it is so hard not to laugh when we have been directing you forces advance for so long, and you keep going and doing exactly like we predict... so sing that song as it pleases you, for it will make the lovely trap we have made oh so much sweeter.

Really? So it is part of your grand scheme to give up all those large cities to GS and ND just to direct us where you want us?

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 17:22

They're not large. They're magnitudally-challenged.

Rule #1 of traps: when you announce you are luring someone into a trap it's because there really isn't a trap to begin with and just want the enemy to assume there's a trap to slow him down or make him more cautious...

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 18:18

...or because you're a terrible tactician.

I'm going with option 2. He wasn't tactical enough to keep his head on his shoulders was he?

Panzer32 · July 28, 2003, 18:56

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 18:56

And Rule #3, Rule #4 and so on...

reminds me of a scene from Princess Bride.

DAVOUT · July 28, 2003, 19:11

This simple thing becomes just slightly more complex when a roleplayer roleplays rule #1.

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 19:14

Did you say... role-playing role #1? No, it's Rule #1 of Role-Playing, isn't it?

What was the first rule of rule-playing again?

that's the counter-counter-bluff-trap

I guess there really isn't a way to predict the mind of your enemy... especially if that mind is detached from the body...

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 20:03

I don't know about Godking, but I keep my mind safe in my ass.

Shiber · July 28, 2003, 20:05

So now I'm a pirate dog that keeps his brain stuck in his butt.
Hell. That's more role-play than any member of RP has done, I'm sure.

The first rule of role-playing (and only binding rule by the way) is :

No rule can limit the artistic expression of a role-player in action.

Never go up against a Stormian when death is on the line!!

Urrgghh.

Darekill · July 29, 2003, 03:19

Well, if that was a trap I'd like to see some more of this. Four Pikes and three Med.Infs are one wonderfull breakfast.
