m (Mass update links)
Line 26:
* [[Bittersweet Ending]]: The Epilogue has left many players sad that the game didn't continue - and that England doesn't rule the entire globe.
* [[Cold War]]: England against Tsarist Russia and Vikingdom.
* [[Cold -Blooded Torture]]: Nadia, torturing Catherine [[Complete Monster|for fun]].
* [[Completely Missing the Point]]: Given that we're dealing with [[Strawman Political|radical political beliefs]](on all ends of the isle) is it really surprising?
## Arya complaining about how England's people were better educated then to rise up against their government if it exterminated all the Irish and resettled because they were . . . uppity.
Line 52:
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: Dem Taqat: ‘We need: sacrifices, darkblade, sacrifices, dead good guys, sacrifices, power, sacrifices, the dark lords aid, sacrifices, to break up the alliance, sacrifices, wraith unity..... did i mention sacrifices? We need them as well.’
* [[Elites Are More Glamorous]]: Only the special forces of the nations are generally characterized.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better With Princesses]]: Catherine. My God, Cathy.
* [[Evil Brit]]: (Almost)Everyone (except Fargle)at various times IC. DT and Captain Fargle OOC.
* [[Expy]]: The Night Eagles to the British Special Air Services (SAS).
Line 67:
* [[Running Gag]]: I CAST SUMMON LH/RAVUS/DT/ARYA/NUKE!
* [[Obviously Evil]]: "The figure has no hair, and neither any nose. Instead, he has twin slits on his face in an inverted V, and small red eyes. He stands eight feet tall and you feel an aura of power and disdain emanating from him."
* [[One -Man Army]]: Captain Athers, the NPC commander of the Night Eagles.
##Arguably, Arya at times.
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Multiple.
Line 75:
* [[Rescue Romance]]: Catherine and Athers.
* [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]]: Lighthearter played in Realpolitik II: New World Order on Paradox Interactive's forums, and his experiences from there are what drove him into adding the rules against using a complaint generator and his harsher stance on wild oppositions.
* [[Shout Out]]: Once again, [[Nineteen Eighty -Four|IngSoc]].
* [[Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism]]: Leans heavily cynical, despite the efforts of some politicians.
* [[Strawman Political]]: Used frequently in the electoral bouts.
Line 88:
* [[Tsarist Russia]]: Present and angry.
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]
* [[What Could Possibly Go Wrong?]]: Most of the plans developed by the players.
##Sonereal's decoy plan started with faking a heart attack in the middle of a city so the other players can steal Dragonbane and ended with him wiping the entire city off the map with magic and nearly causing the underground tunnels in the mountain (where the others were) to collapse.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Invoked spectacularly by the other players upon learning of Nuke and LH's big argument at the end.
* [[What the Hell, Player?]]: Invoked in almost every narrative in one way or another.
## Also one of LH's signature moves in chat.
## Notable example: During [[RP 2]] near the opening election, to Nuke and DT talking about plans to Arya - but stopping when Sonereal(a NEW opposing party member) appears.
{{quote| ''“You've been telling your political secrets to an ASSASSIN-FOR-HIRE WORKING FOR RAVUS!”''}}
* [[What Were You Thinking?]]: Again, multiple.
## Ilduce349's Ukraine plans
## Arya's Irish plans.
