Sometimes you've got to use mechanics that are "broken" (and not badly broken, I mean shit that doesn't even sound that bad) to display to others that they ARE in fact broken. The way things change in this mod, or nearly any mod is when enough people cry about it.
I'll also never forget the strategus battle in (I think) Yruma Castle last strat where me and Horns blatantly, and I mean
BLATANTLY abused longspears and pikes to poke through mostly solid objects. We stood on a wooden roof and jammed our pikes through a window, pulling them up so hard you could stab folks above you. I will never, ever forget the cries of myself and horns, both of us likely high/drunk/both, screaming "I'M GOING FISHING", "OH SHIT BOYS I CAUGHT ANOTHER ONE", "WE'RE EATIN' GOOD TONIGHT" and such.
course, that didn't really get anything fixed, I just wanted to share the good time I had on that evening
i also think that you should never mute for racism
