Mind-bogglingly popular game series that you follow from early on and cannot stop, waiting for new installment like a drooling addict.

Long-runner soap opera you're too invested into to just stop watching it.

A fun little comic strip in the daily newspaper that's been around forever.

3/6

Who said it's fun? I didn't for sure.

I'm just waiting here for it to die horribly already so it will stop showing on my Unread Posts list.

A, I don't fancy getting Cyl killed by a sling bullet to the skull. Few things more humiliating than getting your shit pushed in by a Hurthling.

[Criptfeind]

B Let's die in a pointless war!

Sure.

A - I'm sure the commander can handle them without our oversight.

[Baffler]

A. This isn't important enough to risk Cyl personally.

You decide to lead your men on a military campaign against the Hurthlings!


Congratulations! Cyl I embarks on a military campaign! During his absence, Queen Esta and the royal Council will take care of political matters.


It's been a week since your Army deployed and so far, it has been an easy conquest. Few times did the Hurthlings present any resistance, and none of these times they inflicted more than few casualties while their slingers, javelineers and archers were mowed down by your cavalry or brutally melee'd by your well-armed and trained soldiers (the fact that Hurthlings doesn't seem to work with any sturdier metal than copper probably helps a lot). Their settlements and homesteads, dug into hills or into the ground are easy pickings for your torch-bearers or Fireblood machines.

Forests now separate the settlements further north, and there are some hillside villages to the south which would probably require pacifying. Some of your officers ponder if maybe the Hurthlings should be offered a parley.

A) Let's continue conquering in northernly direction.
B) Let's mop up work in the south.
C) Send an offer of negotiation to the Hurthlings.

[Kashyyk]

B - No point leaving work half finished. If they  have any tactical sense they'll attack our supply lines otherwise.

We have made our point I think

C Maybe we can get them to settle down and be good subjects?

If the truce wasn't about to end, I'd be inclined to agree. As it stands, I'm in favor of removing them from existence so they cannot cause trouble on the homefront when we push East.

[Haspen]

You decide to turn south.

Few days later, your Army is attacked by the Hurthlings between two large hills! How did they manage to approach you unnoticed and with numbers reaching more than thousand, you do not know.

5*

But even this surprise attack didn't help, as the poor-as-dirt Hurthlings were no match against your steel-armed, drilled troops.

For the coming week, your troops are busy manhandling the Hurthling populace.

1126 AD, Mid-Autumn

While your magistrates, heavily guarded by soldiers of course, teach the Hurthlings how to organize their settlements better, the resistance of Hurthlings has diminished. Still, many officers believe its time to move majority of the army to more forested areas where apparently the Hurthling's High Chieftain and his Chiefs currently reside within splendorous dwellings of Hundred Doors.

A) Onwards, to battle!
B) Time to parley methinks!

Ahh, screw it. Why not.
