If we are talking about realism, why does RefPers
take an entire order? I
like to think about some new E30 sitting in Minas
Tirith (yes a nice
fortified city, probably with an army in it) writing
out the requisition
forms for a nation purchase. Murazor sends him a
note "Come fight me,
Please." E30 says no. So murazor spends all of his
time (a full week)
hanging outside the E30's door, begging the E30 to
fight him. Makes
harassing phone calls. Shoots arrows with little
notes tied to them through
the window. Threatens the pizza guy. Slips flyers
under the door calling the
E30 a wimp. Finally, the E30 agrees just so that he
can have a little peace
and quiet to write up that morale boosting speach he
was ordered to give,
and promptly gets squashed into a puddle of gore in
a fight any idiot could
tell was a bad idea. Where is the realism here 
THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT WENT says murazor.
I visited the fair city in order to see if I could
purchase it for a buyer who wished to remain unknown.
Thats all legal. After all, isn't Minas Ithil a MUCH
better place now that a new broom has come in and
cleaned out the cobwebs ? A change is as good as a
holiday isn't it.
Nothing is wrong with change.
Then the racist/facist/<insert term of hatred here>
refuses to let me enter. Heh, i'm a tourist, I should
be allowed to TOUR the place. My rights were violated
in not being allowed to see. NG must be hiding some
cruel and dangerous secret from the people. We have a
right to know everything that could affect us. I
reckon I should sue, but my friends in accounts tell
me that NG doesn't have any money left to pay me, the
<insert swear word>
So what's a single bloke to do ? A long way from
Angmar, my mates don't like hanging around me during
the day, and a pocket full of NG money (and I still
have a NG purse it come from). I'm even starting toget
bored with the QA queen. That <guess which word goes
is spending all her time playing with her boats.
Something about Tolkien would have approved of her
doing a viking raid she said.
So I see this lovely, cute. adorable 30 pointer
emissary (and its a SHE, not a HE - I might be hanging
around the orcs for a while, but I can tell a female
from a males - you can open up a few internal organs
to prove it). She was so innocent. I just had to say
'hi'. She ignore me, the <insert word for female dog
. She said that she was too busy to see me. She
said she had to see about some leather that just came
in. Then she said she had to go into the bar on the
4th level to cheer up the soldier. I told her that
ANYONE could do the natsell, and she could get someone
else to do the inf your. But no, she said that she had
orders. I guess having a brain of your own isn't a
trait that NG breeds in their people (I hear sheep
have the same problem, so maybe this gene thing is on
the level).
She didn't even care that I, Murazor, first nazful,
and KING (she doesn't even had a king to follow),
wanted someone to care about me (even sauron said that
he had no time to play 'I spy' with me). She had 4
long weeks to say 'hi'. But no, she always refused
<insert again a word for a female dog>.
I even tried to get Din and a few of his mates to
visit her at night (its more romanatic at night you
see). Maybe slip her some flowers, even a little
present. Din said that he was busy giving another
present (a jewel dagger I think it was) into another
NG person. So I struck out.
In the end I gave her a final plea. If she REALLY
wanted me to leave (SG looks nice this time of year),
all she had to do was see me face to face. Tell me
that she wanted me to leave, and I would accept it.
So she agreed to see me. She told me to <insert rude
word here> off. I lost my temper. I only hit she
once. The <female dog word again> must have deserved
it. I think she led me on all the time. My spending
weeks here meant that I wasn't around in mirkwood with
my buddies at the gathering (they said that a sindar
needed a doctors excuse for a weekend off, so they
were to arrange some sort of cold for him).
If she had gone out with me, everything would be OK.
Its all her FAULT. If she wasn't so busy doing this or
doing that, she would stil be alive.
oh well, does NG have another cute person I can chat
to ?
there are two sides to every story (actually three if
you follow B5). And I'm glad that I was able to give
the DS side to the story.

Actually I'm fine with RC taking up a full order. In
real terms it means you are going out of you way to
avoid people.
In an old 2950 game where I was free, the woodies sunk
down a decent agent into the WK capital (with mates).
Foolish WK didn't RC with his emissary (bad move IMO),
so the woodies agent got in a cheap kill.
Getting in a cheap kill seems to give me a lot more
enjoyment that wining a close battle (its worry when
you see the words 'about even', but 'seven to one' is
party time).
