[QUOTE="turnip_farmer, post: 8372004, member: 7029365"] OK, so we have two interested but I'm thinking we would want three or four players for this. In an attempt to entice lurkers, I'm throwing out my pitch for the game below. ----------- [I]In the days of old, during the rise of the great Empire, these lands were a battleground. On the very soil on which you stand, the massed armies of the Emperor and the Underking fought great conflicts to hold back the rampaging legions of Chaos, just one small part of an eternal struggle that has raged across the cosmos for longer than mankind has existed. But none of this is a concern of yours. The empires of old are stories for children to listen to. You have much more important things to deal with; like Edna laying less eggs this season; or the upcoming turnip harvest; or the outrageous rates they're asking for good manure lately. As if this wasn't problem enough, something strange has been happening recently. Villagers have been going missing. Sheep have been found slaughtered. The children have said they'd seen something moving around the old abandoned keep at the end of the valley. Then, last night, something came to the village. You didn't see what happened. There were screams in the night, strange noises you couldn't identify, people snatched from their very homes, and cloven footprints leading off in the direction of the ruined keep. Enough is enough. This isn't the stories. There aren't any heroes to help. Nobody's going to protect your chickens if you don't. And so, pitchforks and spades in hand, a bunch of you are off to take care of things...[/I] [/QUOTE]
