The scene you were looking for was in the BEGINNING of the film. :P I don't watch many movies, but LotR aside, Shawshank was nice. The Godfather movies are obviously in. I'd doubtless say the same, except I haven't seen the Godfather series, I don't have any particular enthusiasm for LotR (my favorite character got castrated bad), and I did not mean to accuse this topic of waaaaanking. :P -------------------- In a word, gay. --Bob the Impaler Posts: 2367 \| Registered: Friday, June 27 2003 07:00

Custer Bob's Big Date Member # 3151	written Saturday, December 20 2003 15:12 Profile Homepage #61 quote: Originally written by Sir David: Darker areas have higher altitudes. While this is technically true, the lighter areas are sympathetic to, if not controlled by, any given cause. The Kylens have a huge sphere of influence and little control, the Ironclads a lot of control and a small sphere of influence, and the Solarens are around the middle. Sphere of control just means that guerilla resistance to them isn't thick enough in that area for troops on the march to be heavily opposed.

Custer Bob's Big Date Member # 3151	written Saturday, December 20 2003 13:38 Profile Homepage #56 Yes, the gray areas are neutral -- for now. The Kylenians sent the Solaran fation a peace delegation -- they acknowledge that eventually, it must be necessary for them and the Solarans to fight, but in the meanwhile, the Ironcladians are the greater threat, and they would both do a better job of fighting them while at peace. Meanwhile, the Kylenian army withdrew from the portions of the South over the mountains, content to set off an unendable guerilla conflict. If the Ironcladians are stupid enough to send an army into the area, they'll quickly learn why regimented troops do poorly against partisans; but the Kylenian supporters have the local strength necessary to keep the area in a guerilla conflict for as long as the civil war lasts. General Hugo was apparently last seen west of the mountains, solidifying Kylen's strength in the near south; this area is rather fertile and populous, and would provide invaluable numbers to their cause. -------------------- ¡Viva Chile! ¡Viva el Pueblo! ¡Vivan los Trabajadores!

What are YOU doing for Christmas? in General
Custer Bob's Big Date Member # 3151	written Saturday, December 20 2003 11:29 Profile Homepage #98 Creation: A myth invented by wise-men of a tribe that wouldn't have known the cradle of civilization from the world at least 5000 years ago, translated from oral history to written, translated from ancient Hebrew to Greek, translated from Greek to Latin, left in sole control of one of the most viciously, tenaciously corrupt political institutions in human history for several centuries, then translated to English by a handful of scribes of fair to middling quality in the 16th century. And somehow, this is absolute, scientific fact. EDIT: People don't understand evolution, for the most part. It is a logical set of chemical processes; it has been proven to exist, and it is not a sapient, God-hating entity any more than gravity and conservation of momentum are. Basic idea: Things that do better in their environment live longer, and in so doing, reproduce more, thus spreading their genetic code among the population. Those that express the traits from that code will go on to live longer and reproduce more than those that don't, and such a process continues on until a separate specie has broken off, or perhaps the old specie has been replaced. In any case, I'm sick and tired of people treating evolution as if it's a living, breathing, anti-Christian scientific analogue of God. It's just something that happens.

Custer Bob's Big Date Member # 3151	written Thursday, December 18 2003 20:28 Profile Homepage #39 The central hills. Colonel Karadas is the commander-in-chief of the forces of the northern mountains. Under any other faction's control, he would be a brigadier- or even major-general. Here he is a colonel, and it has fallen on him to break the bloodbath in the House Ironclad's favor. He arranged the troops he had left in a stiff turtle, ready to crush the ill-organized Kylenian mob storming the walls of the castle that controlled the breakoff point of the two passes. If this castle were to fall, the Kylenians would have no opposition from the two divided passes, and would control the mountains. Catastrophe would surely result. As such, Colonel Karadas had more men and weapons at his disposal than any garrison commander in the Empire, and more than most provincial commanders. He was prepared to break the morale of the Kylenian mob. Then the phalanx marched out. If they succeeded, the Kylenians would fall back, and the pitch wouldn't be necessary. If they succeeded, hell was liable to freeze over. They didn't succeed; they were too outnumbered, and it was something of a victory that they weren't routed at once. The Kylenians just had too much in the way of numbers on their hands. Sadly, Colonel Karadas was no fool. The adage "Don't put all your eggs in one basket" is one that is dangerous in the military: take it too seriously and you're liable to have all the eggs that matter broken. Ignore it, though... And ignore it Colonel Karadas did, putting all priority on breaking the Kylenians at the joint of the passes. He didn't notice the group of cavalry lead by General Hugo until the first explosion shattered a goodly portion of the east wall. The fighting was horrendous, and clearly distractionary. Karadas couldn't do a damn thing about it short of killing off as many Kylenian cavalrymen as possible while they stole everything with a pointy end that wasn't nailed down and left. By casualties alone, Colonel Karadas had won that battle. Then the firebomb that the cavalry set in the west wing of the castle went off. The garrison keeping the walls free of the Kylenians surrendered on the spot; many of them, only peasants who had been drafted into the Imperial army to stop brigands, were willing to fight those parts of the garrison which hadn't surrendered once offered clemency. And Karadas set off to the south, bringing news that the Kylenians had taken the last fortress which kept them out of the mountain passes. He gathered a massive contingent of followers -- followers who would have joined the Ironclad forces and beaten the Kylenians back across the passes... ...if they weren't attacked from the south and east by more Kylenian partisans, armed by the weapons stolen from Karadas's old fortress. ... General Hugo has become a hero among the Kylenians and a villain among the Ironcladians overnight. As for Colonel Karadas? Chances are, we haven't heard the last of him.

A sharp response came from the leader of what was almost definitely the least legitimate faction. "All the other tacticians have told me that it's impossible to do it without risking severe weakness against the western Solarans..." "True enough. Which is why we won't divert any forces from the fighting in the passes. Rather, we will take any weapons we can gather from the city -- of any level of simplicity -- and move through the southern pass with a group of powerful weapon smugglers. We'll arm the sympathizers in the Jsoulza basin and help them commit guerilla raids against nearby Ironcladists." "Hmm. And I suppose your group would be spearheading this?" "Naturally, sir. I assure you, I am doing it for the good of the true crown, and for its good alone." "Good. The problem is, though, that we barely have enough weapons to supply our own forces..." "That IS a problem, sir, I'll be buggered if it isn't." The general looks disappointed, then thoughtful. "I suppose we could talk to the Solarens about acquiring some..." "No. You want us eating out of their hands? Instead, I believe we ought to focus our efforts on the passes. Once we've secured them all and flushed out garrison resistance in the Jsoulza Narrows Pass, we'll lead whatever group of elites you had planned to use to Ironclad territory and attack some southern armories. So not only will we be harming Ironclad power in the area, we will be doing it with their own weapons." Kylen tents his fingers, self-satisfied. The general sees the sense in the plan. "I'll get started on assembling an elite group, then..." -------------------- ¡Viva Chile! ¡Viva el Pueblo! ¡Vivan los Trabajadores! Posts: 2367 \| Registered: Friday, June 27 2003 07:00

With control of these passes, the Kylenians will have effective control of east-west movement through Pralgrad. Taking them should not be too hard -- after all, their defenses are oriented towards brigands; and even though there are brigands better-equipped than the Kylenian levee, and brigands better-trained and organized, there are certainly none as numerous... -------------------- ¡Viva Chile! ¡Viva el Pueblo! ¡Vivan los Trabajadores!
