    Seriously. I understand the "religion concept" is strictly a roleplaying thing. (more's the pity)

    Is there room on the team for me to roleplay a raving psychopath of a cult leader, quite possibly not recognized by the proper 'church'? (very likely going public with my ravings, damn the poll, let em ban me)

    Or would you guys rather everyone on the team stick to this peace be with you bullsh*t?
    No, no! I for one, would really enjoy having you in "our fold" as it were. I personally believe that your input/participation will make this game quite enjoyable.

      One more note: Our team voting for civ leaders is well underway.
      In fact we have already decided the list of 5 civs and elimated one of those from contention for #1 - #4 and placed it at #5.

      More over, our first and second choices have wide margins.

      So anyone joining does so with the understanding that our civ choices are pretty much already finalized.

          I want you to line up all the posts where I have said "peace be with you" (and this one doesn't count.)

          Being a bad catholic myself (which mnay of the Templars were as well. Stabbing someone in the back right after saying "peace be with you", would be a common place thing.

          If you think Im going to go around and say peace be with you this whole game, then you have been smoking a bit too much crack

          And no one is telling me how to roleplay. Does that pretty much answer your questions?

            Most welcome sir Aidun, or by addressing you in your native language, hartelijk welkom heer Aidun.

            To my opinion is role playing, on a personal note, a welcome flavor to the game. If the team decides to head in the direction of the preaching loonie, it even allows for role playing as a team representative.

            The first few Templars chose to start of from a pacifistic viewpoint on enlighting the world with any kind of religion available. Religion has more than a few times allowed for an ill excuse to pick up swords, in history and still in the present day.

            The Templars were a militaristic power because they were an economic powerhouse..

            I'm looking forward to see which way the balance between pacifists and warmongers will go within the team. Lively discussions are the key to an enjoyable game. Even more enjoyable will be the question mark with our oponents.
            don't worry about things you have no influence on...

              Thank you Sir McMeadows for your warm welcome. Pacifism brings me in terrible moods and I am very relieved to meet a fellow knight who understands the sword. I already look forward to ride out to the field of battle with you. The world is harsh, its soil thirsty for blood. Unless we defend the holy truth and our treasures, and all that is holy in this world, those who refuse to pick up their arms will replenish the thirst.

              Let the peace of our order spread like a fire, let all armoured men kneel down before our lord and let the divine light shine upon us another day!

                  Aidun is authorized.

                  McMeadows and I are hanging out in the forge making some new swords while the rest of the bunch (led by Beta) are praying.

                  So get over here and give us a hand

                      Hmmm

                      I think I'll wait around till the civ choices are announced.

                      I have in mind which civs I'ld like to see in action. That will tell me which team to join.

                          Since I blinked and my team disintegrated, I was wondering if this team would welcome a clergyman of the Brother Cavil variety?

                            Well, I for one, fully support Locutus' application into our brotherly knighthood...and I think that all other Templars would be hard-pressed to say that they don't know who Locutus is!

                            Psst, Locutus...since I myself can't authorize your application, an "official" Templar official will be in contact with you shortly...

                              Praise be, our prayers have been partially successful. We have secured brother Locutus to our cause.
