Here's to hoping that it isn't WC3 with a 40K mod...

It's hilarious. I wish they would make more of them.

I think it could be pretty good. I've always wondered when they might try something like this.

I don't think it would be very easy to screw up. All of the armies are pretty unique, and there are a lot of them. This also means the game might end up being insanely long. I just hope they don't  limit the missions to like 5 or 6 per army. That would be kind of disheartening. I'd rather have a massive 5 GB game then something that I can beat in a week.

My mistake. I thought SE lived in Utah as well. Sorry.

Sorry, but I will be getting this. Maybe you can all fly in from Utah to visit it. But rest assured, with this as my center of power, the world shall be mine. Muahaahaahaa...

I'm moving to Minnesota when I'm older. Unlike this extreme hot-cold weather in Michigan, it never gets too hot there, and has cold winters. I love the cold.

Alright, mine starts as most RPG stories start. 6 15-17 year olds sitting around, each having at least 4 liters of caffeine in them. The worst off is my friend James, who has drank over the course of the night a total of 6.5 liters of Surge. We counted. It's not like we had anything else to do after what transpired.

I can't quite remember what we were playing. I think it may have been ShadowRun. That wasn't the most important aspect at this point though. We had quite possibly the most strange line-up of characters ever. James has the most odd character of them all. He describes him as a Pygmy Dwarf, standing about 1 feet two inches. The picture James drew was insanely funny. This "dwarf" has a hat made out of plastic rings, which he swears gives him magic powers, which are a gift from his "god". He constantly prays to someone named "Mandingo". His reason for following the party is to rid himself of a curse where every fourth word that comes out of his mouth is "ARSE!".

So the party walks into a bar, and the Pygmy sits down at the bar. He says "I want an ARSE! drink." For some reason, James just goes incredibly nuts at this point. This is all outside of the game. He starts running around the room, yelling that sentence over and over. Finally, after two minutes, he appears to calm down. He then bellows "I am the Mandingo Warrior! All shall fall before my mighty ARSE! powers!". He then turned to run out the door, but misjudges directions, and takes off towards a wall. Running into the wall, he falls to the ground. He begins jabbering on and on, usually with the word arse in every sentence.

Not a word was spoken (besides his babbling, which wasn't really able to be considered intelligible) for about 5 minutes. Then, as a whole, everyone burst out laughing. Occasionaly, James still yells his Mandingo Warrior cry, but I think he learned his lesson that night.

Well then, that was the only story I could think of at this moment. I'll have to ask around for anything else. If I do find something better, I'll be sure to post it.
