do you really need to be namefagging already? you only have a single green in your name, dude. People don't recognize you

>>30234293
Then do it. It can be nice to have differing perspectives on something.

>You line up some apples armed with skewers
"The formation allows the rear troops to support the front. This is ancient tactics in my world, but it will be revolutionary here, for now."
>You move the line forward towards the enemy oranges
"All you do is march forward. It's very imposing. The enemy will falter and run. They'll have never faced this level of discipline before."
>The apples move within striking distance
"Unicorns will cover the flanks with magic, and pegasi will keep an lid on them with sheer numbers."
>"Hmm... Still, griffons are very brave, and twice the size of an Earth Pony. What if they don't run?"
"Just keep moving forward. Easy peasy."
>"Okay, but... how?"
>You stare for a second

"Like that. Rinse and repeat."

>"I agree, sister. If a price is to be paid for peace, let it be paid for in the blood of griffons, not ponies."
"Trust me, Twilight. This will be their Cannae. We will lure the bulk of their army into the field and strike a blow from which they can't possibly recover."

People don't recognize me because I haven't been namefagging, silly billy. I've been writing greens for years. Figured I might as well namefag.

But I didn't become a namefag for rep. I did it to maintain the continuity of my greens. I couldn't give two horse shits whether or not I become a household name.

If you think that's bad just check the Imperial Griffins in Heroes of Might n' Magic 5.

>>30236490
Yeah, so I left it filled in for a response. What did you expect? I'm lazy as fuck.

They also have legs. Sometimes you want to trade mobility for not getting fucked up.
