Kai NRG Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) (A chilly, frosting morning. Through the gloom, three people are just visible. The seem to be bent on a mission.) N.1: (whispering loudly) Stop it you duphis! You're poking me with your spear! N.2: (penitently) I'm sorry. N.3: (authoritatively( Hush it up! We're getting close! (A loud crash, followed by an obnoxiously loud "Moooooo...") N.3: So much for secrecy! Get them! N.2: (in a low tone to N.1) Here we are, miles away from the nearest house and he's worried about a few twigs breaking! I never could understand him. N.1: (picking himself up and brushing dead leaves off his tunic) That makes two of us! N.3: You! To the left. You take the right. Keep them together. I'll head them. N.2: (slapping the back end of a cow with the flat of his spear) Now this is my kind of job! N.1: No way, Mr. Cow, you're coming over here! N.3: Cows are female. N.1: Nu-uh. This one's male, I'm sure. Just look at him try to ram that bush down... oh, no, you porker, stay on track now! N.3: You don't get it. All cows are female. N.2: What? That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. How you gonna get a baby cow if they're all female? N.3: (exasperated) Because there are bulls, of course! N.1: Bulls? Those crazy old things you can't come within a mile of? Now if there's anything all female, that's it. (reflectively) You know the saying, there's nothing more angry than a woman scorned - or somethin'. Now, a bull just screams that to me. N.2: Yep! N.3: You two are a bunch of... N.2: (interrupting) Don't want to know what we are, but anyone else feel like a gang of robbers? N.3: (gravely) It's not robbing if you pay for it. (N.3 tosses some coins onto the ground they had just left) N.1: (to N.2) You were right. Never can understand him! C&C welcome! Numbers 1, 2, and 3 are making inroads in F13, Desert King territory.

Kai NRG Posted March 7, 2015 Thanks guys! I'm glad most of you seem to have found the story rather amusing! ...However you should probably clarify what side it is for ...I think I may have not made the directions clear, we need to know where this is in the post so others can counter it next week. I know it is for Ulandus though! Fixed that! If the title could be switched that would be great; it should read [G:F13, U vs. DK] Herding 'em up! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gideon Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) Nice cow posing When countering a build like this one, is it the size of the actual build or the build+the border which counts? Edited March 7, 2015 by Gideon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MKJoshA Posted March 8, 2015 I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are doing in the build. Are you stealing cows from the DK? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kai NRG Posted March 9, 2015 Thanks everyone! Nice cow posing When countering a build like this one, is it the size of the actual build or the build+the border which counts? I would assume the build+the border, but not putting too much of the response build's focus on the sections that are border on this one. I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are doing in the build. Are you stealing cows from the DK? Yes, or at least from DK territory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kai NRG Posted March 16, 2015 Oh boy, I feel so sorry for those poor innocent peasants that are now getting gored and hung by mistake!
