Im probably as far from a rts fan one could be, but i never forget the first time I heard "Join the army!’, they said. ‘See the world!’, they said. I’d rather be sailing"
They were all dead. The final gunshot was an exclamation mark to everything that had led to this point. I released my finger from the trigger. And then it was over. To make any kind of sense of it, I need to go back three years. Back to the night the pain started.
Dawrn of War has a lot of really great lines (and a ton of character in general for every unit.) I also really like the contextual lines of soldiers in Company of Heroes.
(German Soldier, stuck inside a building while Allied paratroopers land. Note this happened dynamically, in Skirmish.) "Itz raining ze entire fucking Allied army!"
Gremlin Gus: [as they look for Oswald in Mickeyjunk Mountain] Quite the exhibition. All it needs is a gift shop. Mickey Mouse: It's kind of - unsettling. I get that he resents me, but... Oswald the Lucky Rabbit: [behind them] Gosh! Ya think? I'm Oswald. I run the Cartoon Wasteland - or I used to. Before that, I used to be popular - a star! [pointing at Mickey] Oswald the Lucky Rabbit: Until YOU stole my popularity, Mouse. Mickey Mouse: My name is Mickey. Oswald the Lucky Rabbit: Believe me, I know. [goes over a display case containing a voodoo doll of Ortensia] Oswald the Lucky Rabbit: Your name and likeness are on all this junk. For years, I've looked at this mountain of your stuff, wondering why YOU got got all the success I deserved. For a long time I tried to make the best of it, tried to make a nice place for all the other forgotten characters - especially my sweetie, Ortensia, and our bunny children. We were doing okay - until the Thinner Disaster.
Then again, it has it's funny moments...
OSWALD THE LUCKY RABBIT: The Blot is absorbing the paint! GREMLIN GUS: The Rocket is held together with PAINT? OSWALD THE LUCKY RABBIT: It was kind of a budget issue.
Nordom: Morte, I have a question. Do you have a destiny? A purpose? Morte: Is Annah still wearing clothes? Nordom: Affirmative. Morte: Then the answer is 'yes'.
