Vanilla

Post by Shizle »

So I ventured over to Vanilla this weekend and today beat a Capt. (with a 77% win rate no less). Woowee did he flame. Convinced I cheated and is going to report me with screenshots etc. Wow, what a trip.

So I checked this guy out and he plays nothing but corps, privates, and lances. AND gets Capt. out of it. That's so screwed up.

Generally vanilla games end in some combination of flaming and accusation of cheating by one of the parties. Even sadder, the accusation is often true. Vanilla represents the decline of society itself these days. :p

Nice one, Shiz! I've taken out Lt. Colonels over there without breaking a sweat. I soon saw there was no dignity in it, of course, and quickly gave it up.

On the other hand, sticking it to some noob-bashers is always appropriate in my view.

Vanilla is something else let me tell you... Landsknecht often use it in their baking... they are afterall flamboyant mercernaries.... come to save the day with their vanilla scented banana bread... yum... makes the house smell great.

Well, not to give it away, but I do have an old 5 uhlan/4 Landsknecht outpost rush hanging around my scrapbook somewhere :twisted:
