Re: Girlfriend Pretenders
 

I have a habit of naming various pretenders after my young daughter. The idea of the cute little toddler actually being an aspect of a godlike undead creature has a certain appeal. For example, neither sleeps or cares about their bodily functions. Unfortunately, if my wife was to realize what I was naming after the child, I may find myself in trouble, so I have the opposite incentive Gandalf does to get the wife playing…

AHahah.

I name my pretenders off characters I've played. My fiance. And friends.

How about naming them after your mistresses?

How about naming your children after units/pretenders of the game? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I still wouldnt feel right doing it for my pretender (which I tend to think of as being me) but I can see it for favorite support units. Mages, healers, maybe a prophet.

I can tell none of you are old married men.

If I told my bigger half that I named a pretender for her the best I could hope for is a look of snide derision combined with a chill factor that would permanently erase Abyssia, all 3 eras, from the game files.

Re: Girlfriend Pretenders
 

Hmmm how old would that have to be?
Im 52 and have been married for 31 years. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Girlfriend Pretenders
 

I'll occasionally use my wife's name for a Pretender. Usually the Great Sorceress, but yes, I've already named the Great Mother chassis after her, and yes, with her knowledge.

We've been married going on 3 years.
