That would be the souls we used in forging the game. Be sure not to stay up at night alone with your computer.

Often times you will hear the death sound of a unit when you close the recruiting or detailed view of the unit on the recruiting screen.

So it is a joke rooted in a "feature" that happens occasionally.

If there is a joke, it has a real effect of having the sounds of death screams during the hosting or closing the view window while in the recruit screen for some commanders. I'm surprised you haven't heard it; maybe it's some driver-specific "feature".

My favorite perverse joke so far has been the slave collar on Madam Fortuna (a mercenary). Now that is a joke.

I've never heard it. Srsly. Am I Chosen? Horror Marked? Or just plain deaf?
