How so?

 

[Ao the Overkitty]

no such thing as a truly unbiased history text. History is written by the winners, after all.

and then it becomes politacally correct...or I mean whined about by the losers

 

[Ao the Overkitty]

And now I see if I can beat up enough Orcs to hit level 5.

 

[Crothian]

good luck....

 

[Steve Jung]

Go Ao! Teach those orcs a lesson.

 

[Ao the Overkitty]

Well.. I cleaned out my reserves, slapped a Defending on my shortsword, and have been doing a bit better than even with Orcs and cash. Just paid 40 for healing after fighting 3 orcs.

but a text with lines like "..but he proved to be a bad ruler. Earnest, industreious, stubborn and lustful for power, he surrounded himself with cooperative "yes men"..."
is a bit much, no?
and then there's the bit about much too flowery and/or corny writing that's shown in other parts...
