Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong's Head Cantina - After Hours

[Growltigga]

Growltigga thanks Dogscoff profusely for his able assistance and thinks that every evil dictator needs a well equipped, nasty, and techologically able henchperson to assist.

Growltigga also credits Dogscoff's tab with a 1,000 minerals and a lifetime supply of babycham

Growltigga walks over to the pair of arms and legs sticking out from under the large grain of salt.

"Yes Timstone, lawyers are the guardians of the fabric of society and keepers of the gates holding back the forces of chaos, we ensure that life's little problems are smoothed (for an appropriate fee) and also ensure that law, which after all surrounds us and binds us, works in one's favour. We are kind of like Jedi Knights albeit more expensive, better dressed and naturally in pinstripes, more stylish and more cutthroat"

Growltigga leaves an invoice for Timstone to find when he gets out from under the salt boulder, together with his business card and the address of a good personal injury lawyer

Oooh, that stuff rots your brain (says the man who got smashed Last night on calvados and spiced bacardi)

Oh well, it just means I need to go off and beat up the Hungarians a little more

GT, try with normal ammo depletion, makes tougher game and more interesting as you have to juggle troops,

I dont like ammo depletion, I dont like the idea of my archers shooting off 20 odd arrows and then standing around like a bunch of goons, you would think that they would ensure they had sufficient ammo

[mac5732]

ahahhhh but...

your archers are defending the critical bridge over the river, the lst 3 assaults were driven back with heavy loss, the enemy however is reforming for another rush, your men look to their arrows, find only enough for 1 more flight, they set their faces in grim lines, draw their short swords and thrusting knives, prepared to defend hand to hand the rushing horde of maniacs. You move up your pikes to strengthen the line, its all or nothing....

I thought Archers, (espcialy the English Longbow armed kind), normaly deployed with sharpened stakes to impede said charges.

[mac5732]

my good gryphin, archers back in the older days, carried various types of equipment, usually short type sword/dagger oriented weapons not true swords in the weapon sense, they were smaller, shorter, lighter not meant for shock or heavy fighting but enough to defend themselves or as Last resort attack. Others carried other type defensive weapons, depending on time period involved. But yes they did carry back up weapons, some were just odds and end individual weapons, again depends on time period

just some ideas mac
