GRIM AGE is a project, which has been in development for 3 years. Right now we're close to release of the first version of a mod. Our project is separated for two parts - single player (Ostland Campaign) and multiplayer sub-mod (Skirmish). We're gonna release Skirmish first, that is why all information you may find here is about it. SP part of our project will get it's own MODDB page when it's time is right.

Halberdier are [STATE TROOP] [PLAYER] type and have next types of sentences:
[IDLE]
[DEATH]
[ABILITY]
[CHARGE]

ABOUT STATE TROOPS:
Every province and city-state in the Empire maintains its own army, trained and equipped at its own expense. These Soldiers are full-time, paid professionals, usually drawn from the Peasant or Burgher classes. They man the Empire’s fortresses, patrol the borders, and repel invaders. Most Soldiers of the infantry train with either the halberd or the firearm. Although dominated by the nobility, the Imperial Army also promotes based on ability and it is possible to rise through the ranks to a command position (though the bigotry of the ruling class makes this difficult).
Outside the theatre of war, the life of a soldier is often mired in dull routine and repetition. Soldiers awake before dawn, quickly pulling on their uniforms, taking up their weapons, and hustling to the staging yard for morning exercises and drills. Drills vary from unit to unit, but often end with a forced march with full kit and armour. After a quick break for breakfast, it’s time to get back to work. For those on duty, that means patrolling. For those off-duty it means more drills. Soldiers practice with their unit’s weapon for several hours each day. They rotate duties to keep any soldier from becoming too complacent at his post, usually working in two- to three-hour shifts. After a late dinner, soldiers not on duty have a few hours to themselves. Most often this is spent drinking, dicing, and womanizing. The only difference for a soldier during war is that instead of morning exercises and drilling he is fighting. Otherwise their schedules remain the same. Routine is the backbone of military life, and many soldiers find the regularity comforting.
The largest affiliation for any soldier is of course his military unit. Whether it is a local militia or the Imperial Army, that organisation is the soldier’s fraternity. It supports him, trains him, protects him, punishes him, and tends to him as necessary. Within each military organisation, however, there may be smaller groups, and these are more like real families.
Beyond the military itself, soldiers may join other groups based on their backgrounds and interests. Those who serve on a local militia are often part of the neighbourhood watch or the city council, for example. Soldiers with an interest in bars and pubs—owning them rather than just drinking at them—might join the Tapsters Guild, at least as associates. Many soldiers enjoy shooting clubs and hunting clubs, since this allows them to keep their skills sharp even during peacetime.

ABOUT HALBERDIERS:
Halberdier - the most common foot soldier of the Empire. The combination of a powerful halberds and Ostland stubbornness allows halberdier become a formidable force on the battlefield.
Regiments of Halberdiers are the most numerious state soldiers, thanks to the Emperor's requirement that each Elector Count maintains a standing force of Halberdiers, but also due to their versatilty and strenght in battle. This regiments supported by rigorous sergeants and critical doses of ale is able to crush any target - as a violent pack of Beastmen and the town which gets on the way of brave warriors of the Empire.
In the heat of battle every halberdier beating strongly, but not too cleverly, though never admit to it. Real halberdier is a brutal, drunk and agressive soldier, who will be able to cut in a half even a steam tank at the battlefield!

NOTE 1:

Someone wrote: The only "humorous" dialog would belong to an Orc/Goblin/Ogre, which we lack.
Empire dialog is extremely heroic, righteous, etc, and of course For the Emperor.

Where Chaos dialog (especially marauders) is...creepy, dark, and brutal.


Use humor in 10% of sentences. Not more.

NOTE 2:Death sentences must be as shorter as possible.

Green - I mostly like it
Blue - Not bad but not good. Maybe will include.
Red - Negative

[IDLE] – Jabber:
1. "Gah! What in Sigmar's name is that on my boot!? Oh, never mind." Neutral
2. "I never wanted to be a soldier, I wanted to be a dancer" *Sigh* Too funny
3. "Well at least I'm not fighting off Orks." Good
4. *Whistle* "Nein! I messed up the tune." Too funny
5. "Well at least the booze tastes good." Neutral

[CHARGE] – Jabber:
1. "FEAR ME!" Neutral
2. "I am your end!" Neutral
3. "For Sigmar!" Neutral
4. "For the Empire!" Neutral
5. "HUZZAH!" Are you sure this is good for empire? I thinlk it's more for Kislev. Maybe i wrong.

[DEATH] - Jabber:
1. "Tell my wife I died hon-." Too long
2. "Nein. Don't let it end like thi-" Too long
3. "Damn you Sigmar!" Good
4. "The horror, the horror...." Unnatural

[DEATH] - Scream
1. "ARGH! THE PAIN! THE PAAAIN!" Neutral
2. "SIGMAR SAVE ME!" Neutral
3. "AHHHH!" Neutral
4. "AVENGE ME BROTHERS!" Good

[ABILITY] - Jabber:
1. "Me thinks it's time for a drink" *Drinking sound* Neutral
2. "Well at least booze will always be here for me...." *Drinking sound* Neutral
3. "I know it's not the time, but-" *Drinking sound* Good
4. *Drinking sound* *Long belch* Neutral

[SPAWN] - Jabber:
1. "Who switched my Ostland ale for this piss water mead!?" Neutral
2. "Let's slay us some barbarians! Huzzah!" Huzzah is still under big doubt
3. "Halberdier at the ready!" Good
4. "Hurrah! Let's send these filthy wretches to their gods!" Good, but huzzah is still non comfortable to me.

Please fix your halberdier line to v.2 and we'll continue on next units.

I think the heroic stuff should be more for the knights and great-swordsmen, not your average foot soldiers. I was going for a mix of funny and somewhat serious.

Huzzah and hurrah are something we midland and island Europeans would shout out back when chivalry was important, but I'll fix it up.

[IDLE] – Jabber:
1. "If only this war would end, then I can get back to my usual guard duties."
2. "I hope there's some ale left, I'm running low!"
3.
"Well at least I'm not fighting off Orks."
4. "I hope the blacksmith sharpened my blade well enough."
5. "Can't wait to get back in the field!"
6. "This battle won't win itself if I just stand around."
7. "Maybe today I can get myself a Chaos helmet."
8. "I miss my home."

[CHARGE] – Jabber:
1. "To the front men! We can win this!"
2. "Forwards!"
3. "Charge them!"
4. "Run down the unholy dogs!"
5. "We must not falter!"
6. "We go to war with Sigmar's blessing!"

[DEATH] - Jabber:
1. "Avenge me."
2. "No!"
3. "You'll pay!"
4. "Damn you Sigmar!"
5. "Mercy!"

[DEATH] - Scream
1.
"AVENGE ME BROTHERS!"
2. "GAH!"
3. "YOU SWINE!"

[ABILITY] - Jabber:
1.
"I know it's not the time, but-" *Drinking sound*
2. "I need a pick me up." *Drinking sound*
3. "Cold ostland ale!" *Drinking sound*

[SPAWN] - Jabber:
1. "Let's not waste time, onwards!"
2. "The battle beckons!"
3. "Halberdier at the ready!"
4. "I'm ready!"
5. "To arms!"

Talic is a fan of dwarfs I think. Hes lines has lot of ale and drinking in em. :D

[IDLE] – Jabber:
1. "The only good thing abouth this is that I probably wont need to see your ugly face again"
2: "I tire of this waiting"
3: "Sigmar will surely lead us to victory this day"
4: you look like you woke up on the wrong side of bed today"
5: "Fighting sure beats this standing around"
6: "I hope the commander know what he's doing. I don't want to die a virgin"
7: "This your first battle? Don't loose your halberd and hold the line and youll be fine"
8: "Dammit! Which one of you jokers have my halberd!"
9: "Im gonne stick this halberd up your ass if you don't shut up"
10: "So I heard this joke........."

[CHARGE] – Jabber:
1: "Death or glory"
2: "Death or victory"
3: "Hold the line men"
4: "Forward! for Sigmar!"
5: "For the empire and sigmar!"
6: "Stay with me!"
7: "Time to meet Sigmar men!"
8: "Strength and Honour! Forward!
9: "Ever forward never back"
10: "Nobody lives forever. Charge!"

[DEATH] - Jabber:
1: "I go to meet Sigmar"
2: "Am I dying?"
3: "Please don't let me die"
4: "Everything has gone dark"

[DEATH] - Scream
1: "Damm you!"
2: "Curse you!"
3: "Fuck you"
5: "Go to hell"
6: "Lot of different death screams, should sound like different persons are saying it, so the voice actor need to be able to sound like different persons, young old etc. This is what is most common when people die, they don't shout out glorious stuff, they just die with a scream of pain or a gurgling wet sound.
Try to get a scream where it sounds like someone is drowning in their own blood and trying to speak.

[ABILITY] - Jabber:
1. "Damm, too much beans last night (farts)"
Whops I didn't read what the ability did. My fault. Should be something with drinking then. :D

[SPAWN] - Jabber:
1. "Halberdier regiment at your command"
2: "Halberdiers ready and willing sir"
3: "We will hold the line sir"
4: "We stand ready. For sigmar! For the Empire!"

Meh my brain is not up to the challenge today. Guess I should get some sleep.
edit: many good in metalheads last one, he wrote it while I was typing or maybe I was just sleeping"

For some various death screams you can probably find em easy online like here: Shockwave-sound.com

Better. Much better. I like this list totally.
You can:
1. Add [SPAWN] sentences to peasants because we haven't them now.
2. Start to write spearman texts.

malanthor
Good, but you personally know what to fix when you will be fresh. Sleep well).
