Thread: Questioning chirine ba kal - part II

Yep, you're right, that's the poor guy. The Ssirandar I was thinking of was the one we met on the far side, where the descendants of the dynasty still like to hold that they still reign - and will return to claim their throne real soon now. Made for a good plot hook, and once we figured out what Phil was up to - "Oh, let's overthrow the Seal Imperium this afternoon, shall we?" - we got our little butts back into the tubeway car as fast as our legs would carry us. Honestly; that man was a menace with some of his plot ideas...

We really can't make this shit up, can we.

Don't quite follow your banter, sport. (UFB?)

Call for a little CAS, and look what happens. Betcha the Marines never have this happen...

Battleaxe Six, Red Eight. Please let your FO know that "SHOOT THEM SHOOT THEM SHOOT THEM" works better if he remembers to turn on his laser designator. These proton torpedoes are a little too hot to get sloppy with...

Well, Tekumal hasn't ever been of much interest to me but I always enjoy the gaming history and miniatures discussion. I think it's a great thing and I'm grateful to Chrine and Gronan for putting up with us.

Un-Fucking-Believable, in reference to the absurdity of closing the initial thread, oh Glorious General.

Chirine,

Which of Pavar's deities is prominent in the Hekellu/Chaigari region? Would this be considerd Vimuhla or Ksarul "country," or is one of the other gods or goddesses more popular?

No, we can't. What I think some folks have difficulty with is that our lives have been made up of the stuff of legends, and theirs' haven't.

"Everything you do so well, you make us look bad."

When I look back at the people we used to game with - and still do, for that matter - it strikes what an amazingly gifted bunch we hung out with. I am sorry that it seems to make some people feel inferior, somehow; that's kind of sad, 'cause all we were doing was making stuff up and having some fun - and we still do, I think.

Understood! What you like is what you like, and I for one am not here to try to convert you to The One True Faith. I'm here for exactly what you say - and if you can use any of our half-baked notions, go to it!
