The glasses over the executioner's mask just ruins the whole effect.

Well, as does the rather thoughtful look of the troll, or whatever the hell that green mask is.

But if this is really Darth Maul, you can't consider this one a costume. I heard he switched to using a less threatening plastic light saber when other gamers refused to play with him. Now if only you could get him to stop using the Force to cheat....

This is actually a game where the costume has an effect on gameplay--it could allow you to go first.

Great, now I have to go on my crusade...


The Norse never had horned helmets.:shake:


...I could delve into my usual spiel, but suffice it to say that the stereotype is strong and several hundred years old, and totally wrong.

Oh well, at least they're having fun playing what can be a great thinking game (depending on which variant you're playing).

living in the general body of countries that have had that stupid horned helmet rumor I might add some things as I go as crazy as the previous talker on that.

1) The vikings didn't have horned helmets
2) Some germanic tribes did have them, but probably only as a decoration or for cult purpose (i.e the helments would crack if used in battle)

3) Only drunk sportsfans belive in the horned myth theese days.

4) Isn't it fun to go on rants of people with no knowledge of history.

I knew we should have taken pictures at the big game of Axis and Allies we played last year.

Sarah (U.S.) dressed up as Rosy the Riveter
Larry (Japan) put on fake Japanese tattoos and drank Sapporo all night.
Brian (Russia) had on his big furry Russian hat
Jeff (U.K.) was carrying around a framed "signed" portrait of Churchill all night,
and I (Germany) went against the suggestions of good taste and wore a Hitler mustache.
