A couple of amusing expressions used around Vancouver not sure anywhere else... Popemobile = War Alter Broken = used to describe a unit/hero/item that is considered greatly unbalanced immune to warhammer = reference to a character or unit that is considered "broken". The best example I can think of is "The HE Swordmasters are immune to Warhammer". |
