So officially I'm even a Freiherr (in english that translates over to Baron I think)

frei = free
herr = sir

It is a medieval designation from the Holy Roman Empire. Apparently Freiherr hold their free of any feudal ties (called allodial land, rather than as a fief from a superior lord like the Holy Roman Emperor).

That is actually a pretty high title of nobility, so congrats Herr von Maritial!

That's either the typo of the year or a very clever play on the words "martial" and "marital"

P.S. Are you guys also wondering when Freiherr von Martial is going to announce the ceremonial drink ?

ps; Sorry for the APC emoticon, but there's no one related to guns, plenty of firearms though.
pps; So now, must we address you as " Lord, Your Lordship, Herr Baron", or what ?

Not much different from before then - at least, if you wanted something done by him

I have it on good authority he doesn't drink beer anymore, but now prefers a fine 1965 Mouton-Rotschild

Any particular year which carries your fancy ?

Gone are the old times when any beverage containing alcohol was good enough - including anti-freeze.

Now that he's elevated himself from the ranks of the stinking peasant masses his tastes have become exquisite and refined.

<sigh> Soon we'll have to address him as "Your Highness" and bow humbly every time he passes us by in the forum.

Greetz,

Eddy Sterckx

P.S. Are you ready for another boozup with Anders ? He owes me a bunch after I helped him with a project


P.P.S Nice pictures - Ann said to send her warmest congratulations as well.

Status: offline 		These photos are clearly faked. A wargame wedding should not have so many young, attractive people. Where are the balding, the lonely losers, the morbidly obese, the freaks, the pencil-necked geeks?

Seriously though, is the blonde friend spoken for?

Cheers, Neilster
