"The Yardistani Air Corps has won a http://shireroth.kuroshiro.net/forum/vi ... =34&t=7538
crushing victory over the Antican interlopers attempting to attack Shirekeep. Many of our finest drinkers and blackjack players were lost in the battle.

"I have ordered the remaining Airships to return to base to have the slot machines removed and replaced with large caliber miniguns and recoiless rifles.

"You are the pride of the Yardistani Armed Militia. Your trained fighting goats are the Terror of Dozens.

"We are very pleased to announce the arrival of the former FCS Jacobus Imperator. It is an Iowa-class (compatible) battleship that I have obtained on long term lease from DSSI.

"She will now serve her most noble cause! And She will be known as the Yardistani Militia Ship Kaiser Mors V!

"To battle! your Duke calls you to the aid of Our Beloved Kaiser!"

*sigh*

Foghorn, didn't you notice the subtle hints? This is obviously an extract from the great Yardistani Motion Picture. Which was released before any of us were in Shireroth which explains why none of us have seen it (yes, even Erik).

Right, Jacobus dux? :P

Brave soldiers of Yardistan, your very presence and existence has cowed the enemy into quiescence!

Remember, those that we fought recently, will be our friends again very soon, so watch the talk should our adversaries come around.

And give them some fired fish. There's plenty, you know!

(And somebody see where that battleship is......)

Duke Jacobus--

Do you intend to fire or fry those fish? I guess it depends on whether the recipients are friend or foe. :fish

Both. :tomcutterhamonfire They are yummy that way! :)

And when we fired some, they go BOO/\/\ /\/\, and thus say grace while cooking!

Besides , it's Christmas time. (Ahem)

I Decree "fired fish" to be a Yardistani delicacy, to be served at holidays with plenty of Mango Sauce, as a symbol of the indissoulable union between Yardistan and Shireroth.

Caliber of weapon dependant on size of fish. Tenderize thus: :fish :fish :fish

Sounds good to me. I love fried, fired fish. Make mine large caliber, with lots of lemon.
