2023-11-13 16:03:33 +0000 UTC View PostTo preface this -- this poll is NOT the poll that determines the next story when a slot opens up in my rotation.

Despite what many might claim, the great battles weren't much different than the regular battles for the people that fought in the mud, blood, and shit.
