[QUOTE="seasong, post: 493892, member: 5137"] [b]Re: commentary[/b] Bah! It's a balmy 60 degrees out! They've got knee-length tunics and sandals, ought to be enough for anyone. Why in my day... Also, a few points: - The imagery is grecian; Theralis is not greek, but they have similarities. - Half (HALF) of the force is female. Remember, [i]all[/i] good children serve for a year. - Shrinkage is good for athletic events and soldiering. Less wear & tear, yes? On the plus side for the sensitive, it won't be coming up much throughout the story hour. My goal is to hover somewhere around PG in the writing. [i]editted: Hey! I went and looked, and there's only one line on nudity. The 'otherwise naked' in the arms & equipment commentary is referring to their lack of armor, not their lack of clothing.[/i]Think of it this way: the 'orcs' ingredient is where you see a buncha orcs, and they are trying to bust through your shield wall and stick you in the head with the foreleg of a trapping mantis. 'More orcs' is when you're thinking, "damn, that's a lot of orcs", and suddenly there's a whole bunch MORE. The ingredient, more properly, could be called "overflowing cup: even more of something in the scenario".Editted. And you're right. I'm often overly cautious in self-assessment, and the first two weeks of this, I've done almost daily posts :). I need to improve my pimpin' skillz. [/QUOTE]
