All men … are NOT created equal! Some are born swifter afoot, some with greater beauty, some are born into poverty and others born sick and feeble. Both in birth and upbringing, in sheer scope of ability every human is inherently different; Yes that is why people discriminate against one another, which is why there is struggle, competition and the unfaltering march of progress. Inequality is not wrong, equality is. What of the E.U. which made equality a right? Rabble politics by a popularity contest. The Chinese Federation with its equal distribution of wealth? A nation of lazy dullards. But not our beloved Britannia, we fight, we compete, evolution is continuous. Britannia alone moves forward, advancing steadily into the future. Even the death of my son, Clovis, demonstrates Britannia’s unswerving commitment to progress. We will fight on, we shall struggle, compete, plunder and dominate, and in the end, the future shall be ours. ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!!!
interesting
as much as I glaze old AA lore it did have its fair share of inconsistencies. idk how the golden armada would even fit in the timeline considering apparently the AG was formed only 54 years before the events of AA happened… which makes no sense for a superpower that rivaled the one shot pirates
This timeshift is recent. Prior, it was 1500 when the AG was formed. The AO era has done nothing but genericize and wipe away any unique lore and themes that AA had.
AA originally could be seen having a message that: Magic was inherently a burden to humanity, which allowed for FAR better thematic stories than anything that can be produced in the magic slop AO.
This is also part of the reason the AA webcomic is probably THE greatest media in the AU franchise.
The Scourge after your first glance are actual people, that you can sympathise with. Suddenly, the “numbers” attributed with the kill-counts of maniacal Curse Users and Magic Users have faces, and you see the actual effect.
Curse Users in the AA Webcomic have effects. In AO, the effects of Curse User are, "yoo whatever these guys are mighty strong!! yeah sure they commit atrocities, but who cares those are just feats to be written of!!! "
And this also makes you wonder, did the people of the Seven Seas see Morock as a genocial maniac? We learn from the AA’s Valencia plush that ALOT of the men in the Battle at the Bermuda Archipelago were from the First and Second Seas, notoriously spare areas with little going on. Did Morock actually kill nearly 2 Seas-worth of Sons, Fathers and Brothers?
So yeah in conclusion, the AA webcomic is the AU Bible, and is the greatest piece of AU media ever
you take this way too seriously
do i now?
Unless supercurses get retconned
That would be quite ironic.
yh youre acting like youre having an actual argument when you should know skittles is always just messing around
Didn’t ask
Don’t care
Yap about this in your thread, not patchnotes
Wrong he is just trying to get puppy to go out on a date with him
(10 characters)
all these monkey brains need to lighten up man 
Yes you do, all of you do. And you know why?
Its all irrelevant. AO’s lore is sadly worse then this masterpiece.
This is true Arcane
Vetex could never.
wizard tycoon is peak arcane
Yeah that’s obvious, the reason people care about AO is because they hope that one day there might be a game that reaches even a fraction of the greatness of 2 player wizard tycoon
I… think you’ll be happy with what we have.
