I didn't feel very inspired by the SS Arrow IV, but here's for you, Warflail:

A Highlander Longbow
Arnis charges it swiftly
Nothing left but slag


Long-ranged Spirit Cats
A transport drops a tank
Sad the kitties are


Thor walks the field
A small chargemonkey smites
The god with his own hammer


New LEs beckon
Dragon's Fury stands bereft
Since Liao's Incursion


New design paradigms
Join the Liao forces like
Nobody's business

A booster pack calls
My wallet is much lightened
Dammit, no Arrow 4

Get your arrow now

You guys understand that Anti-Personnel can't be used with Artillery attacks right? Anti-Personnel targets a unit. Artillery attacks don't, they target a marker.
I'm just making sure you guys are clear on this.

Yup, we know. But arty doesnt need AnP to doom infantry. Well, non-megainfiltrating non-dropped infantry anyway.

No! No artillery discussions on this thread! Bad poetry and prose only!
<G>
Actually, it's not my thread, so I guess that's not my call.
on to the haiku...

Time to alpha strike
in rear arc of shut down mech.
Rolled 3 ones again

That one really touched me, krazy_kat. I feel your pain.


12 Speed for Yu Huang
For 90 tonnes of 'Mech it
Moves very fast

"Can't fight the artilery" sung to the turn of "It's not easy" or whatever that superman song is.....by whoever it is. >_<

I'm more then a bird
I'm more then a plane
Yet I'm crashing down beside the train

It may sound absured but don't be nieve
Even Mechs have the right to flee

But its not easy
To see
That thing

I'm more then a man
In a silly tan van
I'm flying high above the battlefield

I even can't see the artilery
But they can smack me down before I flee
Its not easy to be me.

>_< Uhh anyway...yea...*hits the run button*

He warned you . . .

What units must I fight against today?
What tactics has the enemy employed?
Four Arrow IVs are sending pogs my way
And all my army soon will be destroyed.

I tried to send some trikes across the board
And base the units that inspire such fear,
But peasants were defending in a horde.
The trikes were dead before they could get near.

I tried to use my mech to make a charge
And kill one of the foe's artillery.
He laughed to see a target oh so large
And quickly pogged it with the other three.

And now the battle's over; I have lost,
But tell me e-bay warrior what's the cost?

Geoff-
Bravissimo. You beat me to it. A Shakespearian sonnet if e're I saw one. Power to the Iamb!

Poor, sad, lumbering Longbow,
At first, nothing but potential,
Now just collects dust.

@luftiver
That's great! I (from when I was a techie for a school R&J production) heard the actor's voices reciting that, and it was pretty cool.

Cheese, what do you mean?
I'm just a piece of plastic you see.

There once was a Player from Nantucket....
Who brought his arrow 4's in a bucket...
He was soon out of breath....
And scared half to death...
Cause we told him where he could stuck it.
The bucket that is :)

Shake-Spear is better in the origional Klingon.
Arrow IV- Do Hah!

Hark, what light Across yonder Terrain breaks,t'is the flash of so many a4's Firing.

Pogs landing, infantry and mechs dying, non artillery players crying, what then luftiver what then.

Tis my eye blinded to my enemy, my vision blured as I peer across that lonely field of death, Hath not I the ability to see, or is my sight blocked by the stack of pogs.

Good bad, I'm the guy with the A4's.

you know what Jack Berton would do at a time like this. He'd bring 3 A4's.
