Ahh, it is a cornucopia, now I understand. I still think it looks like a big carrot he is going to beat people with, but appreciate the clarification. I must say, for a low graphic game, I have seen relatively few graphics like this.

BTW, I like the one about the orange troops and the one about handing out condoms!

IIRC, the LoF is sometimes the _only_ Titan-like Pretender with Nature magic inherent that a nation has access to.

If that is true, he does have a use.

If you want to improve him, give him an ability to give a random good event that can only be selected from the 'growth' events. Y'know, the ones that generally increase the growth scale of the province, etc. Sort of like the Lady of Fortune, but more limited.

Some nation other than Pangaea, then.

Everyone likes a good old fashioned carrot now and then. It is probably worth 50 design points to have one. So he's actually quite cheap.

Most cornucopias appear and behave in strange ways. This one is kind of wriggling I'd say. Orange is also the color of gold, when you have opened the doors of perception. Most soldiers are worth ten oranges. Blue gods are less intimidating. Lakshmi has fortune, and someone was right: the lady of fortunes should not be contraproductive in a thematically stereamlined world.

Hmm, I feel the thoughts of beer racing through my brain. I'd better stay siolent for now.

Siolent=silently violent?

Good to hear that beer has opened the doors of perception. Please let me know if they will now accept oranges as payment for your rent, as I foresee a excellent export business from Kenya and a happy business partnership between us.

I believe I now need to start a game with this god and role play the carrots. Shame about my new baby, this could be a really fun AAR!

Siolent - as in the movie "Soilent Green", except when you are talking about orange instead of green, you're supposed to transpose the 'i' and the 'o'. This makes 'soilent' transform into 'siolent'. So it's not about people eating people, but people eating carrots. Kristoffer was obviously going off somewhere to eat carrots. Everyone knows how well carrots go with beer. Is that clear?
