Why can't you be a professional fighter? Nightclub? Bah, that's just a job you need to make money. Use that money to get into the sport you want to get into. Do what you desire.

I very much hope so. A world full of lawyers would be horrible

I'm not sure if I have met anyone like you (how could I know), but I have met lots of people, and I believe I understand what you mean.

Still, you are lucky enough to know a few phrases that you could use in Dominions, or in other games. Perhaps find correct plural form of Augur. I think we call them Augurs atm, and thet is not right. Augur Elder could be given a proper latin name. Without much efforts you can always find some small things that make a language fun. Or you could search for latin descriptions of the Seraphim or other angelic beings and try to translate them.

Hmm, sorry, I hope you don't mind me trying to influence you

Yes, that might happen. I won't stop training even when I start to work of course. I shall see how these things gonna turn out, and I will decide what to do in time. If I choose to be a professional, that will require huge amount of time / day. Example a professional fighter is training like 5-8 hours/day/5 times a week and 3-5 hours on weekends. This is just "normal" training, other then this, you must run like 10-15 kilometers all day. Hardcore. You cannot do anything else, when you are training, so this will be a very hard choice for me. Thankfully I know the right people to train with, if I choose to be a pro. Right now Im training with a world champ kickboxer and a kempo master, but only 2 hours / day at average.

Yeah Kris, I know that latin can help a lot, especially if someone would like to learn more languages.
Anyways Im glad that you understood what I was trying to say, because some people just cannot understand it sadly. They are like "what?! how can you prefer sports over school?!" My own mother cannot understand it for example...


*Edit*
Damn we went off-topic again, as usual. This should be in the introduce yourself topic maybe.

[/b]Summer, Year One in Her Reign[/b]

Arcane words had reached Her from Lent City in the kingdom of C'tis. Albert had landed in the port below the Tel City of Lent. His words had been shrill and difficult to discern. He spoke of a sprawling city on top of a hill full of caves and tombs. In the city itself was a great temple outside wich stood an army of chained beings fed with baskets of rotting flesh. Ghouls not unlike the Ghoul Guardians of the Ruined Keep. Atop the great temple stood a being of Shadow and Flame. Tap, the Burning Soul, Prince of Flames, a Moloch, robed in horrible might, awaited adoration from a great procession of lizards, living and dead.



Albert claimed 340 talents were collected in the city monthly. That would soon diminish.


Witterich did well. He and Thorismund defeated the Wolf tribes and their shaman, but Her Prophet seemed to have a will of his own. He had retreated from the battle. She would now have to give him new orders. Fortunately he had fled towards the capital. She had plans for him there.



Hector Stark had signed the contract and was given orders to conquer Vault. He would receive aid from Totila, an Illuminated One of the Second Tier and a handful of Ghould Guardians.


Since Totila wasn't able enough a mage to keep the Ghoul Guardians in line, they had already eaten a couple of unsuspecting guards, She made Her will made manifest in the sudden fervor of the religious order of the black templars. The formidable knights would serve her better while there were not enough mages able to lead the Ghoul Guardians.


Another mecenary captain, Bulrek and his city guard was willing to work for the highest bidder. His precense would be most welcome in the Tintalaln Waste, since Witterichs armies were severely decimated.

The discovery of Jomonese troops in Windfall Range just beyond the Tintalan Waste further advocated a mercenary precense in the waste.

---------

Thorismund smiled. The Voice had gone. He was free at last. In the confusion of the battle he had succeeded in sneaking away. He was now on his way back to the capital and the Black Rose, his favourite tavern.

Still he had a gnawing feeling that something wasn't right. Could it be that She wanted him to go to the capital for another nasty surprise. He shuddered. Part from hangover, part from his dark thoughts.

----------

I set Adelbert to instill uprising.

I send Totila and Hector west to Vault with a handful of Ghoul Guardians

Thorismund is returned home.

I place a bid for Bulrek and recruit a 2nd tier member and two black templars.

Interesting update! It seems the map is rather crowded.

Could we perhaps see the recruit roster of the Black Forest?

The above screen shot is interesting to me because it suggests functionality that I don't recall being in Dom2 (assuming it's a native screenshot and not modified)

Can you click on units in the battle viewer and see their stats as seems to be the case above with Dernan?

Tel City?
The only meaning I can think of is the word "Tel" in hebrew, which would make a "Tel City" into a city on a small mountain.
So is "Tel" some word I don't know of, or is my original conjecture correct? (I searched Dictionary.com and was unable to find a translation for Tel)

I must be missing something >_< (Maybe "Tel" is some C'tissian word?)

EDIT: JaydedOne, you can select individual units during battle replays in Dom2 as well

A Tel City is indeed a hill city. The tel is originally a man made hill of layer upon layer of ancient cities. A hill of ruins so to speak.

Well, gotta say, marrying together the two Ulmish themes from Dominions 2 is a pretty interesting solution.

Hmm, I've been thinking of modding late era Ulm into souped up Iron Faith when the game comes out...
