So, how great is Kromm anyway?

Only because Kromm, in his greatness, decided that magnanimity in defeat was better than arrogance in victory. ;)

It's To hell with you, actually. God, I love that movie. Have you seen my sig?

I did, in post #26. If this isn't kick-ass enough, then I don't know what else is.

Yep :) Unfortunately, I can't turn off the subtitles in my DVD version.

Well, maybe. He did laugh at Conan the next day while Conan was hung over. And then cast him from Valhalla. Of course, that could be that when questioned about the Riddle of Steel, all Conan could say is "Powerful Big Rats..."

And that we never stray from the path and become Adversarial Players.

Players like that make baby seals die and cause cancer with prolonged exposure. I don't write books for them.

I'm afraid that won't help. afaik, all Conan DVDs sold in Germany have un-off-turnable subtitles. Some weird copyright issue - same as we couldn't get Léon for years with an English language option.

Who remembers not Conan's terrible exertions when he was asked to think by the sorceress? ;)

Anyway, I heard that Kromm bought Valhalla for his cat and fed Odin to it.
