A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion.
-Sir Francis Bacon, Of Atheism <---Did I make this my sig? This shits gay as fuck.
I remember you saying that a while ago. I actually looked it up the other day. Strange sport, kinda intersting, but definately strange. And by law women aren't allowed to watch it, that is just wrong.

Necromancer is also a really cool class t oplay in Diablo 2. Get them Golems and Skeleton Mages going. I guess in R&D he was nicknamed "The General" because of the armies of Golems, Skeletons, and Skeleton Mages they raised to help him.

Heh, never thought of that one, but oh well. Suppose that's a legitimate answer as well.

Well actually, necromancer comes from the root word necro, meanging "death, or dead" specifically, and mancer(a person), much like mancy(the action), means "movement". So from this we see that the word necromancer actually pertains to someone who can make the dead move.

Just through Eldo and Australia in google and saw what came up, and it did, so decided to just use it as a guess, no matter how far off it was. .On another note are you actually going to tell us where you got it from or make us guess forever.
Negro actually comes from Spanish and Portuguese word negro which means black. Those words actually stem from niger and nigr from latin which means black. Necro come from greek roots nekro- which comes from nekros which means corpse. They actually have nothing to do with eachother and stem from two different languages.

But still one of the greatest tacticians and warriors in the history.Not all of them are entirely good guys(what ever that means;)) Like the Vikings,or Attilla The Hun who was a great warrior king but was simply a destroyer instead of a trying to civilize.
I take it Femto is a character from Bezerk,have only read like 1-2 volumes of Bezerk(please dont shoot me ).
Not much of PC gamer,ispecially tactical games.But I didnt know there was a game were you could control the Zulu nation
just to keep the topic interesting.... what do you guys think of Vlad Tepes Dracul? (Dracula) <= the real life one. Here is an interesting tactic. Vlad usually had a horse attached to each of the victim’s legs and a sharpened stake was gradually forced into the body. The end of the stake was usually oiled and care was taken that the stake not be too sharp, else the victim might die too rapidly from shock. Normally the stake was inserted into the body through the buttocks and was often forced through the body until it emerged from the mouth. However, there were many instances where victims were impaled through other body orifices or through the abdomen or chest. Infants were sometimes impaled on the stake forced through their mother’s chests. The records indicate that victims were sometimes impaled so that they hung upside down on the stake.
Vlad Tepes often had the stakes arranged in various geometric patterns. The most common pattern was a ring of concentric circles in the outskirts of a city that was his target. The height of the spear indicated the rank of the victim. The decaying corpses were often left up for months. It was once reported that an invading Turkish army turned back in fright when it encountered thousands of rotting corpses impaled on the banks of the Danube. In 1461 Mohammed II, the conqueror of Constantinople, a man not noted for his squeamishness, returned to Constantinople after being sickened by the sight of twenty thousand impaled Turkish prisoners outside of the city of Tirgoviste. This gruesome sight is remembered in history as "the Forest of the Impaled."
Kinda has to deal with mythology since the man is the legend of dracula. interesting guy.
