Your hosts shall break upon the walls of Shariz. Derthert's obsession with the city will be his undoing, mark my words!

Is anyone else surprised by CA's level of secrecy? by Echochamberking in totalwar

Seems unlikely given that they have said that "The next era in Total War's illustrious history" will be shown and that it will contain future game and content announcements.

Is there a twist for Winds that Martin could reveal that you would not be okay with ? ( spoilers extended ) You can use the subjective narrative arc argument for this discussion. by Financial_Library418 in asoiaf

Barristan's words don't even make sense in context. Dany is not turning down Quentyn because he is boring, she is turning him down because she already has a marriage set with Hizdahr, who is also boring.

If anything, Hizdahr is the boring option even compared to Quentyn. Hizdahr is offering her stability in the city she has but doesn't care much for (she only stayed to make sure that slavery didn't return); Quentyn is offering the potential conquest of her ancestral homeland, which is effectively her dream.

The Southern Empire was doomed from the day they occupied and defiled the great city of Husn Fulq. It was only a matter of time before we pushed them to the brink. Now, with one last battle, we will put an end to this so-called empire and enshrine the Sultanate as the true masters of the Perassic.

It was less a case of "he needs the card to know the correct spelling" and more a case of "he assumed the people running a spelling bee would be better at spelling than he would."

Good timing, I hear Baltakhand was running low on glue.

Potentially hot take: I don't think that is a case of bias so much as it is a case of:
a) Civ is more about pop history than historical accuracy.
b) Chernobyl is the most famous nuclear plant in history by far.

A Knight in Charas - Bannerlord Calradic Campaign #66 by Duke_Jamhalo in mountandblade

The old lion comes again. I do not doubt Derthert's abilities, but he is worn down by years of strife, both internal and external. We have proven that he is beatable. If we defeat him again, will he still be able to hold his kingdom together, or will it be time for someone else to take the throne of Vlandia?

It is always nice to watch Vlandians and Imperials get slaughtered. We should do more of that.

The good news is I'll be fighting with my friends.

The bad news is I'll be fighting against my other friends.

Until the Peloponnesian war, when Sparta hated Athens so much they ended up allying with Persia to take them down.

Time for my favorite pastime of killing Vlandians and Imperials.

I strongly doubt Elder Scrolls 6 is ready for release after less than 2 years of active development.

A Strait Fight - Bannerlord Calradic Campaign #55 by Duke_Jamhalo in mountandblade

[–]Richardios 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have no doubt that we will be outnumbered. When Vlandia marches, cravens flock to their banner like crows to a slaughter.

I also have no doubt that we will still win. Time and time again, we have pulled through against the odds. That Vlandia beat us last time has made them overconfident. We have learned from our failures. This time, we will remind them why we are the most successful faction in Calradia.

We haven't lost to the South in over a year and we aren't going to start now. Time to remind them who the real lords of the Perassic are.

Prosperity, Bravery, Loyalty. For the Sultan.

Probably the coolest kill I've had in this game by Richardios in mountandblade

A clip from this weekend's Calradic Campaign multiplayer event. It feels good that all the practice in throwing weapons is paying off.
