Nilfgaard appreciation society

[deranged]

Exactly.

So, what does it actually say? According to Google failslate, it's "Bucket family. Free the carp."

It's a multinational company polluting the Polish culture. Imperialism.

Well, CDPR is also polluting the world's culture with Potato, but we ain't complaining about that, ain't we?

Wouldn't know, I am not polish... But I'd rather have cdpr offices where I live than KFC.

The north ain't free. The northern kingdoms have to be littered with the blood of Nilfgaardians. Emhyr "The Hedgehog" var Emreis not my king. He is an evil imperialist and probably elf race mixer as well :DD Radowid and Redania not Emhyr and Sun cult. Praise Eternal Fire.

 

[Jools]

Seriously, Henselt was a big fat cunt, Radovid is a deranged asshole, Foltest, well, needs no introduction, Emhyr is a scheming cumguzzler.

Can't we have at least one decent power-figure in the whole world of the Witcher?

 

[VentilatorOfDoom]

what's with Saskia the maiden of Aedirn.

 

[Angthoron]

She was a political construct created by the sorceress' lodge.

 

[Commissar Draco]

Quality thread and yes its great Potato detector as this nation is all about love of FreeDOOM .

 

[Hobo Elf]

Can't you just kill everyone to be on the safe side?

 

[Duellist_D]

What exactly was wrong with Foltest?

And Radovid might be overdoing it a little bit, but the basic principle behind the witch hunts is pretty logical and sane.
The Lodge was the prime example of why one can never ever trust persons of Magic.
Why would you ever let known meddlers with no allegiance except for their equal peers roam around freely?
Removing magic kebab from premises is a simple necessity or else you become a puppet of some secret society.

 

[Tigranes]

- They treat Twitch3rs with respect. You don't see Nilfgaardians spitting at you when you walk past or calling you a damn mutant. The closest you get is "White One", and they make it sound more like a title worthy of respect.

Because they do not fear Witchers, and know they do not need to fear Witchers. They are a dying breed, and Nilfgaard believes it will eventually need to fear neither monsters nor monster-hunters. A lasting dominion by them over the North means the end of the Witchers as Geralt knows them.

Yes, a bunch of sorceresses have a conspiracy, so every mage, alchemist, student of the arcane or grandma peddling herbs needs to be burned on the pyre. Just to be sure also burn random peasants carrying a charm or some other suspect items.
Witchers and other non-humans are next in line, as they tell you time and again.
This fascist crap is what some people consider logical and sane.

 

[KevinV12000]

That sounds completely logical and sane to me.

 

[Duellist_D]

Well, as i said, he is overdoing it a little.

He should leave the herbalist, profane scholars and peasants alone.
The rest is pretty much fair game.
In the Witcher-Verse, almost all Wizards and Sorceresses are shown as scheming Shitheads. Just look at the history of secret genetic meddling they did, that led to the whole Ciri-Disaster. Leaving a group of magically active age-resistant people with huge Egos and little regard for anybody else to do as they please, is just asking for trouble.
The pyres might be a harsh solution, but cracking down on peoples of Magic to remove them from influential positions is necessary.

 

[TedNugent]

For the Empire.

Emhyr's way cooler too than all the knoblicker northern kings that Geralt has met so far.

except Foltest.. Foltest was a broe

 

[cw8]

Fuck Nilfgaard, I looted a crate near their quartermaster and the 2 guards knocked me out and took all my money.

 

[TheEntitledOne]

I haven't finished yet but I'm rooting for God Empress Cirilla's interdimensional empire.

What's the point of spy cards with high attack power anyway?

 

[Pope Amole II]

What's the point of spy cards with high attack power anyway?

To make the spying tactic somewhat weaker for Nilfgaard than it is for the Northern Realms. Faction difference & stuff. On the other hand, makes countering the spies with decoys & resurrectors not as profitable so, in few certain battles, that can be actually seen as an advantage.

Hey now, Foltest was cool

Needs to be grimdark (though rulers being ruthless dickheads isn't grimdark as just common perhaps). Some of the other rulers in the setting aren't too bad - maybe Meve or Tancred

It just came to mind but Calanthe, the Lioness of Cintra, was quite all-round badass a character, in the grimdark way of Sapkowski. BTW, I would.

In a world where shit like this exists and is common, yes, you dash mutant babies heads against the wall and set fire to whole villages if you have to.

Nope. And that's the entire point.

 

[veevoir]

Sure we can. Only if it gets stabbed shortly afterwards. On that Sapkowski and GRRM agree.


Note: Kovir actually has decent rulers. and Milfgaard - Emhyr is a decent ruler, just personally he's a dick.

 

[Duellist_D]

Thyssen was a pretty cool guy until the Lodge geeked him.
Pretty much the only sane one alongside with Meve.

I like Emhyr, he is very efficient yet retains a certain level of morality even when he wouldn't have to.

 

[Eyestabber]

Foltest is (was) a cool guy, he just couldn't keep it in his pants. Who among us can blame him?

 

[TheEntitledOne]

He was also a sisterfucker.
