I thought that we were the flying monkies and that Overlord is Dorothy looking for his Soulforged Silver Slippers of the Maiden so he can go home to the Netherworld.

If anyone throws themselves off a tower to try and fly, I'm blaming you.

So.  There are several things I've noticed.

1.  When Overlord is in trouble/captured, he seemingly assumes the body of a minion.

2.  He abducts humans and turns them into armor.

This leads me to one conclusion.  Overlord is a Reaper.

Why can I just picture Overlord saying "I am assuming direct control"?

Mass Effect fans will understand. >.>

It's all just some promotional ploy preparing us for two week's time!

Damnit, now I'm going to be disappointed when Overlord's final words aren't "I am Overlord, and this continent is MINE!"

After combat Overlord will say "I am Overlord and this is my favorite continent in Battlemaster" ?

You're all taking this very lightly, given that BT now has 102 regions blighted, i.e. more than half of the island is already lost.

It's humanity's way to try to convince ourselves it's not the end of the world yet. Because if we can joke about it, surely it's not that bad, right? right? right?

Begone, blasphemer! Our rose-tinted glasses (or visors if you're wearing a helmet) will protect us!

Well, none of us really know what else to do so... Martinis anyone?

With the complete lack of information my character is getting, clearly there isn't that much to be bothered about. When, on questioning, our ruler says the only message they've had of any interest to anyone else was when they were General 12 days ago. None of the recent stuff, apparently, is worth telling anyone else about...

...and though I can in some ways understand the point of view of not spreading enemy propaganda, it does take away a lot of the interest that all players should be able to have in the invasion.

Actually in all fairness Overlord has been very quiet for a while now. Other than that little tidbit about having found the sea lanes to the other islands he hasn't said boo lately.

Daimons are losing battles or running from battles left and right, I see no reason to be concerned.
