Pining for the Fjords
« on: April 03, 2006, 12:52:05 PM »
I thought I would never miss seeing the Spit & Hurri hordes...but now I long for them.  My Messchersmitt does not like this salty sea air...  It keeps wanting to fly towards France but...gets confused.



The plumage doesn't enter in to it....

'Es not pining! 'Es passed on! This parrot is no more! 'E has ceased tobe! 'Es expired and gone on to meet 'is maker!

'Es a stiff. Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace, if you 'adn't nailed him to the perch 'ed be pushin up the daisies.

'Es off the twig. 'Es curled up 'is tootsies, 'es shuffled off this mortal coil. 'Es run down the curtain and joined the bleeding choir in vestibule (I think thats what he said?).

'E f***ing snuffed it! (self censored, I thank you ;) )

'Es off e (? again) the metabolic processes, 'es 'ad 'is lot. All statements to the affect that this parrot is still a going concern are from now on, inoperative.

This is an Ex Parrot!

When I saw this thread, I thought you guys somehow got a hold of the new Norway terrain without me knowing it.

Sure thing... Here is what the general layout is:



Kanttori has been working on this, in the downtimes between getting Karelia to it's beautiful conclusion. It has some of his "custom coastlines" throughout, which breaks up the normal look and makes it look quite a bit realistic. I don't specifically know the base layouts yet, but I do know there will be many fleets for some nice North Atlantic action.

Kanttori is finishing it up in the next couple of days, then I need to add my new, relevant clipboard map, and then send it in to Skuzzy.

ETA: 2 weeks (but that's a real "2 weeks" :)  )

It's a summer terrain, and a winter version will be available at some point in the future.
