That is a much better troll hymn. Sadly the lyrics are in French only.

Name is "Troll Farceur et Elfe farci" and roughly translate as "Joker troll and stuffed elf" (yes, he's going to eat it).

I 2nd Ironhawk and have also chosen diplomacy as the most important skill. My opinion is based on experience more than anything else. This skill of course doesn't work in non diplomacy games, what makes those games extra interesting and also much faster.

I think Diplomacy is the number one key to survival and victory.

I think also you cannot recover from bad pretender design. While outthinking your enemy is important you do also need the tools to do this, that is where the pretender comes in.
