Comrades, we must not fight amongst ourselves! Band together and let us sing this song together. We must stand against the enemies of the proletariat who contaminated the Gulf and burned Mather's arm hair with hairspray! Arise, wretched of the earth Arise, convicts of hunger Reason thunders in its volcano This is the eruption of the end Of the past let us wipe the slate clean Masses, slaves, arise, arise The world is about to change its foundation We are nothing, let us be all |: This is the final struggle Let us gather together, and tomorrow The Internationale Will be the human race :| There are no supreme saviours Neither God, nor Caesar, nor tribune. Producers, let us save ourselves Decree the common welfare That the thief return his plunder, That the spirit be pulled from its prison Let us fan the forge ourselves Strike the iron while it is hot |: This is the final struggle Let us stand together, and tomorrow The Internationale Will be the human race :| The state represses and the law cheats The tax bleeds the unfortunate No duty is imposed on the rich 'Rights of the poor' is a hollow phrase Enough languishing in custody Equality wants other laws: No rights without obligations, it says, And as well, no obligations without rights |: This is the final struggle Let us stand together, and tomorrow The Internationale Will be the human race :| Hideous in their self-glorification Kings of the mine and rail Have they ever done anything other Than steal work? Into the coffers of that lot, What work creates has melted In demanding that they give it back The people wants only its due. |: This is the final struggle Let us stand together, and tomorrow The Internationale Will be the human race :| The kings make us drunk with their fumes, Peace among ourselves, war to the tyrants! Let the armies go on strike, Guns in the air, and break ranks If these cannibals insist On making heroes of us, Soon they will know our bullets Are for our own generals |: This is the final struggle Let us stand together, and tomorrow The Internationale Will be the human race :| Labourers, peasants, we are The great party of workers The earth belongs only to men The idle will go reside elsewhere How much of our flesh they feed on, But if the ravens and vultures Disappear one of these days The sun will still shine |: This is the final struggle Let us stand together, and tomorrow The Internationale Will be the human race :|

Hairspray, which was intentionally corrupted by the corrupt capitalists to burn the user, so that the user may condemn the working class who produced the spray under harsh conditions, using toxic ingredients for the evil plan of the capitalists!

How did you burn it?

-Thread Derailer Activated- So did anyone hear about BP finally plugging the oil leak in the Gulf? Those capitalist fatcats deliberately delayed the installation of the cap to destroy the enviroment. They knew that by destroying the ecosystem, it would hurt the working class fishermen and businesses tied to the enviroment, including tourism. What are the workers that make the little umbrellas going to do if there are no more tourists to drink cocktails on the beach!

I wanted a teachable familliar who could do my chores (collecting bones) for me. That has nothing to do with this issue. Now to change the subject matter completely: I'm a communist. Please discuss.

Regardless of which forum we were in, I think it is pretty clear that most taverners are fine with the rules laid out by Tip.it Basically, stay away from the topic.

Hoooray, it would open up whole new professions and classes! Imagine, entire regions would be lifted out of economic ruin and depression when a Pimp opened their factory doors to new workers.

Yay, now I can post without making it a double post. Okay, several things. Here's the "history" of our village. (Told from the point of view of Jen) I stumbled through the pine forests in a daze. My waterskins had long run out and my head was bleeding. Vicious boars had knocked me unconcious several times, and once I had been beset by a bear. Finally I reached a clearing in the forest with the end of stamina bar, before I collapsed. I woke up, barely concious after the physical toll of my journey. My hunger bar was black and I began to lose hitpoints rapidly, but before I fell unconcious again, I smelled a sausage nearby. I dragged my body along the forest floor until I reached the sacred sausage, a Wonderful Wilderness Wurst, lying upon a rock. I took it and stuffed it into my mouth. Suddenly a great fire rose from the ground where the sausage was. It smelled of barbecue and immediately took shape of a face. It cried out to me, "I am the almighty god, Frankfurter! You have been chosen to build a monument to me in this very spot, where people will toil under the harsh sun before eating the fruits of their labor. They will gain valuable FEPs, and regain hunger as if they had not worked a day in their lives! This, you must do." And so, Jen became the lawspeaker and supreme sausage maker of the village of Castheo. Legend has it that when meat and intestines (the ingredients of sausages) are placed in the chest in front of the village idol, they will disappear by night, so that the sausage makers in the sky could fashion them into scrumptious goods for the workers to eat the next day. ---- Also, I need someone to help plow and pave the foundation of the walls. Basically toggle seeing the village claim on, then follow closely with that. Should be pretty easy. Also, I have begun a village granary near the idol, for excess foodies that anyone doesn't need. Please take it only when you are really hungry, and you can't eat anything else. If you catch a rabbit, remember to put the meat and intestines in the chest in front of the idol, then grab some bread from the granary. ---- Rules of the village 1. Don't cut trees without destumping 2. If you need to clear an area of trees (for a house or something), destump and move the logs to a place where you or others can use it. 3. Don't steal, vandalise, or hurt villagers 4. Respect sausages.

Then there are plenty of non-religious morals that don't exactly condone pornography either. I'm a liberal person, but maybe liberal and conservatives are different in the United States than in Norway.

What if the parties involved lived in a relationship that wasn't technically marriage. For example, many rural peasants were considered married, even though they never went to wed under the gaze of a priest.

Oh, I forgot to put something specifically included in the plan. Taking slaves and feeding them the chopped up body parts of their relatives. :thumbup: Okay, time to enjoy dinner now.

Ye Olde Hegemony
Icelandic Invasion of France It was the best of times for Europe and by extension, the World (except for the Muslims). Trade flourished in the lull of fighting between the Mongols and the Europeans. The Muslims had been dealt a stinging blow, and would pose little threat to the nations of Europe. It was the worst of times for France. After being crushed in the recent conflict with Spain, its lands were once again trampled by an invading force: the Icelandic Hlaupari. This small raiding group of a thousand soldiers rode southward along the French coast, pillaging for the fun of it. They were under orders to cause maximum damage, and that involved the worst atrocities imaginable. At every village, the raiders left houses burning, castrated men, drowned children, and ravaged women. Livestock were slaughtered and left to rot, while the fields were destroyed. Finally, they reached their target, the castle on the French border with Spain, and began their siege. French public demands retribution against Iceland.

Just log in so I can add you to the village. The entire area is village area, but you weren't on when I built the idol. :)

Archi and I just tamed one sheep and one ram. Prepare for babies!

Well your troop set would change to a regular one, meaning your Hlaupari would either be weaker or costlier. I suppose your population would become more altruistic in philosophy as well.

If we would be starting from the beginning, instead of level ten or something.

Errr, you could ask Spain about that, but there's no gameplay or historical reason why it should be strictly under your jurisdiction (since we don't exactly have airlifts).

I have no clue what you're saying. Please elaborate on exactly what your point of view is on how ownership should work in this case. :thumbup:

You do realize that it's generally faster to use a river, right? Besides, why would you solo a boar when you could pelt it down with rocks. It's cheaper and it's less risky.
