I don't want to be presumptuous here but do you have -> any knowledge of German or Germany at all?

I wasn't thinking of hitler at the time I posted that message(if I was, I would have mentioned "sieg hiel") I was simply translateing the english words to the best of my knowledge of the german language (yes my lord == ya mine furor) I don't know the german word for "lord" so I just picked the closest thing and I just replaced "sire" with "commandont". you must be paranoid. or maybe you are ashamed of the german language, I am not ashamed of the German language(even though Hitler spake it) nor am I ashamed of america(even though the KKK is from america). BTW, could you E-mail me those German Warcraft 2 sounds?
