AMIA ARCHIVE • View topic

I keep seeing people with "Outrider" or "Horsemen" in their names. But I have yet to see one horse on Amia. I guess I just want to know how can one be a "Horseman of the Apocalypse" without a Horse. I think "Footman of the Apocalypse" would better describe them. Just a thought. Have a great day!

I believe the "Horsemen of the Apocalypse" is a play on the Biblical Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Death, Famine, Conquest and War.

Except there is more then four of them, and they are all tits.

(joke)

Remove the headpack and you'll have the headless horsemen. Has a much better ring to it.

What is that movie, I think it's Monty Python where none of the knights have horses so they ride around on sticks? That's what I am reminded of everytime I see a "Horseman" or "Outrider" I can't help but crack up.

Stickmen of the Apocalypse?

Monty Phython the Holy Grail.
Yes the knights have no horses so they skip along with their servants clapping coconut halves together.

I believe it is a Biblical reference to be taken figuratively rather than literally.

but will they cross the bridges to chase after us or not?

now I have to watch The Holy Grail again lol

Are the "Outriders" or "Horsemen" biblical?

I think I'll start a gang, what would be a good name?

Umm, does this topic serva real point?

no sir it does not if you ask me. Then again, im not the op. We are seeing a lot more of these lately.

I was giving the OP the benefit of the doubt and assuming that s/he actually thinks it would be a good idea.

I thought this was a discussion forum. Just having a friendly discussion. But if it has to have a point then nope no point. Sorry.

Just seems like senseless ragging on a faction's name is all.

Why aren't there horses?

Super-apocalypse causing lag.

They cause severe client side lag anytime a horse appears on your screen, even if its the same horse in the same area that's simply left your LoS. Add in the fact that ride is simply broken as a skill and a feat, and you have an unusable feature. Might work fine for single player, and it's a shame paladins lose their mount, but it's really not suitable for multiplayer.

I like the name. When they came to Story Night it gave me an excuse for Ruce to spin off a poem/song about their 'overly close relationship' with their horses ifyouknowwhatImean, nudge nudge, wink wink.

They have full penetratrative sexual intercourse with equine animals.

Pretty sure that is it, maybe an attempt at humor.

I didn't intend to offend anyone. I apologize.

I assumed, after you said that there was no point, your statement was intended to be humorous rather than malicious.

Can we get stick horses to be sold somewhere in the mod?

Don't worry, you didn't do anything wrong. People just shouldn't make big issues about small things.

There aren't any horses on Amia because the restorative formulas on Amian raise scrolls can only be scribed on tanned horse hide.

....any questions?

Yeah to be honest I am complelty over people making jokes about the Horsemens names.

'Not aimed at anyone in particular'

Being a kiwi, you'll get over it

You're used to recieving flak from your neighbours especially about sheep.

Always do

The Sheeplovers of the Apocalypse?

Oh hell here it comes now.

Go do a google search for jokes steal someones else material go on do it oh wait you already did.. Never mind then

O calm down.

You make a name that is by nature a paradox (The Horsemen on a server/island that lacks horses) and expect not to get some joking banter thrown its way?

Next thing we know people will grumble that hittnig your head against a brick wall hurts

I'm only venting rage dont take me serious. Sheesh

p.s. horse noise, and the old english 'nay' for no, for those who need reference.

Thank you, Mr. Buckley.

as a long time horseman, i have one thing to say.

We need no hawsies to ride up yo [donkey]. donkey, being synonym for the word i was going to use, but decided to censor

yea you just got punk'd, word.

Using a synonym for a homophone (or homonym depending on country) ... ingenious! You, sir, are incandescent!

reaching some nice levels of spam / fail in this thread.

You'll notice that the thread was dead for a day and a half before you posted, and that the OP stated that this thread had no purpose.

Har har.

I'd request a horse, except I have no characters that really need a horse.

Could call them the Cartmen of the Apocalypse?

empty corral
