Goddammit, someone stole our stuff
again!
![](3-Null.jpg)
This is impossible. It was as if he was never here
Strange.
![](4-Snake.jpg)
Okay, okay
deep breath, deep breath
Everyone, attack!
![](6-vladIII.jpg)
Hahahahahaha! More enemies. Come. I don't care if you number more than all the stars in the sky, or all the ants on the earth. I once fought tooth and nail against an empire mightier than you can imagine. God will support the righteous, and slaughter the wicked!

Soldiers of the MSF, take a good look at the borders as you pass. What you see can and
will happen to every single soldier I capture, young or old, male or female.
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
Blugh
corpses
impaled corpses everywhere
it's
disgusting!
![](9-MSF.jpg)
We've got the superior firepower here but this is still unnerving as
hell, Boss! Please don't make us spend any more time in this damn country than we have to!
![](9-MSF.jpg)
*Gag* the stench
It's even worse inside the city!
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
I swear I just saw some ghouls feasting on the impaled corpses in the distance!
![](4-Snake.jpg)
Burn that damn thing to the ground. This is psychological warfare, I'm sure there's no such thing as actual ghouls. I hope
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
Ahh, hell, he's raiding our trade routes too! We need to take him down!
![](9-MSF.jpg)
We're working on it! Jeez!
![](13-Nebuchadnezzar_II_(Civ5).jpg)
You fool. Surely by now you realize you are walking on the path to ruin.
![](4-Snake.jpg)
Look, I've been forced into this!
![](13-Nebuchadnezzar_II_(Civ5).jpg)
Have you? Indeed? Perhaps you can't stop being Big Boss any more than I can stop being Nebuchadnezzar. However, I can assure you, the fat years will certainly be followed by lean years
for you, and me.
![](4-Snake.jpg)
I'll discuss philosophy with you later!
![](9-MSF.jpg)
Fight through it, fight through it
AAAHH! These guys are covered in
blood! It's scaring the hell out of my horse!
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
They killed one of our vessels? How? We've got the superior firepower here!
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
One survivor found adrift, sir! He just kept ranting about how it was some kind of Wallachian "ghost ship!"
![](4-Snake.jpg)
"Those who cannot remember the past
" I
damnit
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
Snake?
![](4-Snake.jpg)
It's nothing
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
Goddamnit! Babylon just forced through a measure to blockade all our trade routes with the independants! Shit. They'll still pay out for our mercenary contracts, since those aren't restricted by sea routes, but this is a goddamn mess. We'll have to see what we can do to reverse this
![](18-Mgspw-huey.jpg)
At least our beautification measure passed
![](9-MSF.jpg)
We're kicking their asses, but they're still
scaring the shit out of us! God, it's Vietnam all over again!
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
Whoah, some of these corpses
they aren't human!
![](4-Snake.jpg)
They're the living dead?!
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
No, they're Snatchers! He's killed the shit out of Snatchers and impaled them too! I guess this means he knew about them all along
![](4-Snake.jpg)
Dammit
too late now. Let's keep pushing forward, I still need to make
absolutely sure there's none left, including the guy at the top.
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
What's really weird is these guys look like they were melted, like by an incendiary
![](21-Strangelove.jpg)
No, no, make her breasts
bigger. And make her hair more like David Bowie!
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
Doc, what are you doing? Why are you talking to the artist guys?
![](21-Strangelove.jpg)
Uh
It's nothing!!! None of your business!
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
Is that a nude they're painting--?
![](21-Strangelove.jpg)
OUT! OUT!
![](18-Mgspw-huey.jpg)
Intelligence reports that the Babylonians are constructing huge, extra-thick walls all over the place, Snake. The city of Babylon had extra-thick walls back in its heyday, too. They were so thick they were practically siege-proof, the only way the city was conquered was by some guys slipping through a drainage grate during a drought. Looks like Nebuchadnezzar's applying that philosophy to everything he's conquered
![](8-FeMSF.jpg)
Damn, our machine-gunner team is toast! Literally, it looks like they were destroyed by napalm. Did the Romanians have Greek Fire?
![](2-Kaz.jpg)
Not that I know of
but that doesn't mean much in this mixed-up land of anachronisms.
![](4-Snake.jpg)
We've softened up their capital enough
I'm going in. Everyone, this guy scares the piss out of me as much as he does you, so I won't ask anyone else to follow me into the main castle. Here goes nothing
Next time: Vlad Boss Fight!
