abstract
  • Long believed to be mere intersections of lines within a plane, the Angles made their first physical appearance in the events leading to the fall of the Roman Empire, as their pale flesh blinded defenders and thus enabled them to defeat the elite Roman military. Wars raged on for centuries while the Roman Empire squandered its wealth on bread and circuses rather than better warfare techniques. As the battles between Rome and The Angles came to a head - a big, shiny, balding white head - it finally looked as though the Romans might pull through this disaster, with their wailing trumpeters leading the troops into battle, their morale rising with every brass blast.
