Höllvania Propaganda[]

Winter

Viktor: "A message from Scaldra HR. Due to circumstances outside our control, most likely witchcraft, I, Viktor Vodyanoi, have taken command of Scaldra from Major Rusalka. I vow to continue her work, protecting the order and sanctity of this sacred city. And, like all of you, I pray she reappears safe and sound." (download, history)
Viktor: "Citizens, I'm afraid I must inform you of a strict curfew that's now in effect. Sol willing, I do believe that, with diligence, this Techrot inconvenience will be gone in only a matter of weeks." (download, history)
Viktor: "Due to Techrot problem and for your protection, I remind you that all forms of electronic communication are now forbidden. I urge to use this opportunity to return to the old ways as Sol and Lua intended." (download, history)
Viktor: "Out of an abundance of caution, you, good citizens of Höllvania, are instructed to immediately smash and burn any of the following: computers, fax machines, photocopiers, cellular phones, pagers, modems, printers, mimeographs, televisions, video players, portable cassette decks and boomboxes. If you are unable to destroy these vulnerabilities, please contact the nearest Scaldra officer for assistance. Failure to comply is an act of willful endangerment of your fellow citizens and will be punished as such." (download, history)
Viktor: "My fellow citizens, I know you must be scared. Even as we prepare for the potential impact of Y2K, another digital curse plagues our fair city: Techrot. A virus both biological and electronic. A blight we do not fully understand but with which you must fully commit to fighting. You must destroy your electronics. You will never be safe as long as devices remain in your homes. Have faith, and all will be well." (download, history)
Viktor: "My fellow citizens, we live in confusing times. Please pay no attention to the modern folk myths of the vigilante group called "The Hex". No such individuals exist. Scaldra alone fights Techrot, Scaldra alone protects Höllvania. Thank you for your ongoing cooperation." (download, history)

Spring

Viktor: "My fellow citizens, I require your assistance in an important matter. We seek an individual. He goes by "Doktor Friday". If you can hear me, doc, we just want to protect you. Everything will be fine." (download, history)
Viktor: "It has come to my attention that some of you have not purged your homes of electronic vulnerabilities. Repent in the name of Sol, then for your own safety and that of your own family, please, get rid of those devices." (download, history)
Viktor: "Efervon gas is highly toxic. Should you encounter a plume, avoid breathing." (download, history)
Viktor: "A gentle reminder that the curfews are for your protection. To be a scofflaw is to, well, threaten the wrath of the gods, who will surely answer with hellfire." (download, history)
Viktor: "Dear citizens, news of a criminal gang of heathens operating openly within the city may be upsetting for you, especially at this time. Please know that Scaldra spares no effort to bring these Hex thugs to justice. Remember, it is up to you to report suspicious activity." (download, history)
Viktor: "It has been brought to my attention that some of you are concerned the popular musicians "On-lyne" may be unable to perform a concert scheduled for New Year's Eve. I have faith that with your continued support and cooperation, our situation will be much improved by then." (download, history)

Summer

Viktor: "Any citizens with information regarding the whereabouts of the fugitive Dr. Albrecht Entrati, a.k.a. "Doktor Friday", are required to present that information to the nearest Scaldra officer. Individuals found to be harboring or otherwise aiding this fugitive will face military tribunal and stand before the wrath of Sol." (download, history)
Viktor: "Höllvania. My Höllvania. You are a city that has survived the Radiant Khan and her steppe hordes. The Black Plague, great wars, and worse famines. You can survive the Techrot too. If, and only if, you do exactly as you are told. Survival is a choice. Choose wisely." (download, history)
Viktor: "Why is it so hard to stay home during curfew? Scaldra cannot protect you if you insist on being in the line of fire. Do you understand? This is for your protection." (download, history)
Viktor: "Citizens, the pack of infested heathens known as "The Hex" are not your friends. They are not your neighbors. They are slugs. Do not be fooled by their human visage. They are violent and contagious. Do not talk to them. Do not accept their assistance. Do not eat the food they distribute. Report all sightings immediately. Why do I have to say this out loud? Why do I have to struggle to help you protect yourselves?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Again and again and again we go through this. People of Höllvania, you are beginning to make me think you do not hold the faith. Destroy these false idols you clutch. These electronics. They are destroying you." (download, history)
Viktor: "Lua will weep tears of silver for all those who fall in cleanliness, honor, and dignity. Hell waits for all others. Which will you choose, Höllvania?" (download, history)

Fall

Viktor: "Anyone stealing food or medical supplies from Scaldra units will be shot on sight. Tell me, can I make myself any more clear?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Dear citizens, Scaldra units have been notified that travel after curfew is a capital offense. Please adjust accordingly." (download, history)
Viktor: "Höllvania, I am so disappointed. After all I have done, after all my sacrifices, you insist on prolonging your suffering by helping these, these, these, these slugs. The Hex. What did I do to deserve this disloyalty? Why must you spit in the face of Sol? Of Lua?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Hex, I wish I could say that I tried my hardest to find a middle ground, a way to work together, an acknowledgement of our common enemy. But, to be quite honest, I didn't even try. Because you are scum, and you need to be put down. All there is to it." (download, history)
Viktor: "Hex, I simply cannot wrap my head around what you think your endgame is. I have an army with Sol and Lua on my side. You are heathens, doomed to rot in hell. What do you hope to possibly achieve?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Höllvania, you'll get all you deserve in the end. Repent. I beg of you. Turn away from technology. Turn away from sin. Kneel before the faith. Accept the cleaning fires, and your soul shall be saved." (download, history)
Viktor: "Entrati, I know you can hear this. I will find you. When I do, it will not be pleasant. It will not be with grace. It will not be with kindness. This is a promise." (download, history)
Viktor: "Exciting news for all of you citizens. Despite all that has happened in this city, I have agreed to let On-lyne play their much anticipated New Year's Eve concert. That's right. Bop your cares away to the modern sounds of... must I read this? Very well. Zeke, Packet, Drillbit, DJ RoM... wait, that's his name? Really? And Har... really? And Harddrive. For one night only, the curfew is lifted. Please enjoy it as if it were the... party of your lifetime." (download, history)

Summoning Stormfall[]

Viktor: "Enough. Stormfall, may Sol guide you to greatness." (download, history)
Viktor: "Stormfall. Deploy. Give our lady Lua something to weep over tonight." (download, history)
Viktor: "You are trying my patience with these antics. Stormfall troops, make these heathens go away." (download, history)
Viktor: "Hex, I keep kicking you OVER and OVER again like a big dumb dead horse and you DON'T learn and I'm tired, I'm so tired. Stormfall, please, save me the bother?" (download, history)
Viktor: "It's the Hex again? Really? Ok. I want you to ask yourself: could this have been a Paratrooper thing? Could Stormfall deal with them? Yeah? Ok." (download, history)
Viktor: "These things are no better than pond scum. Unclean and unholy. Stormfall - purge them from my city, will you?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Why do you find it so difficult to get rid of these... these slugs? Throw more troops at them. Shall I write it on your hand?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Is there a unit ready? Good. Deploy." (download, history)
Viktor: "Once again my hour of meditation has been disturbed. My sancta sanctorum has been decimated. You will suffer for this, in a million future lives of surpassing wretchedness. Stormfall units, descend." (download, history)
Viktor: "Stormfall unit, my children, as you prepare to descend from on high, take a moment to read the Prayer to Sol which you can of course find on your Credo card. We are not dying in a state of sin today." (download, history)
Viktor: "Stormfall, have faith that your sacrifice today in the name of Sol and Scaldra will not be in vain. A place has surely been prepared for you in the Hall of Heroes." (download, history)
Viktor: "Stormfall, you're going up against the most dangerous breed of Techrot. The Hex. Best of luck to you. Good hunting." (download, history)
Viktor: "I have explained it to you until I am bleeding from the eyes. The answer is right there in front of your gawking moon-cheese of a face. SHOOT. THEM. UNTIL. THEY. STAY. DEAD." (download, history)
Viktor: "Hex... why do you insist on refusing your medicine? Has it escaped to you that I command a literal army? Stormfall Paratroopers engage." (download, history)
Viktor: "Citizens! Fear not. We have the situation under control, as I speak, the planes you hear above your head are delivering elite troops to neutralize The Hex. Rest assured, this criminal organization will be eliminated. With extreme prejudice." (download, history)

H-09 Tank Assassination[]

Intro

Viktor: "Good morning, Höllvania. How are all we today? Good? Excellent. To the point: you have become weak and you crave what only I can supply - discipline. The H. Oh. Nine. They are, by contrast, strong. They are fierce. And they are unyielding true soldiers. NOW: we begin the first step in returning the city to the strength and glory she once knew. Under my watchful gaze." (download, history)
Viktor: "H-09 Tanks by the glory of Lua... etcetera etcetera... cleanse this city." (download, history)
Viktor: "Citizens: loss of property or persons is forever the price of protection. Do not obstruct the tanks. Höllvania endures." (download, history)
Viktor: "Our soldiers stand as liberators, their rifles? Keys. Thought, your prison. Celebrate the tanks which safeguard your hovels and byways. Cheer as those who celebrate death pop beneath their tracks. Höllvania endures." (download, history)
Viktor: "Höllvania, your house is in disarray. My trust in you, spectacularly misplaced. Tear your orbs from the bloodless glow of whatever screen has you transfixed and witness what becomes of those who stray. H-09s showtime. Oh, and have fun with it." (download, history)
Viktor: "After the untimely disappearance of our beloved Major Rusalka, it falls to yours truly, to set Höllvania straight. Scaldra, deploy the H-09." (download, history)

Ferrocite Barricades

Viktor: "It's time for the Hex to learn that movement isn't free. RRRRRRRRats! On the streets! Of my city! Ah-gain! Erect the barricades." (download, history)
Viktor: "Move the H-09 into position. Cover flanks with Ferrocite barricades. Nothing touches my baby." (download, history)
Viktor: "Barricades up. Nothing gets through Ferrocite." (download, history)
Viktor: "Quickly. The Hex have been spotted. Engage the barricades. Seal the sector." (download, history)

Half-Way

Viktor: "Citizens, an object lesson in extremist self-delusion: the, uh "Hex"? Is it? High on their own supply, they mean to murder the Scaldra commander devoted to keeping the infestation from your beds. But fear not. They march themselves towards purification only. Cameras rolling? Excellent. Watch and learn." (download, history)
Viktor: "Arthur. Aaaaaarthur. How does it feel? I wonder. To send your friends to die?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Arthur Nightingale. If it weren't for the disease that disfigures your body and soul, you'd be just one more dead idealist in a pile of dead idealists whilst I am Höllvania's very raison d'etre. Scaldra looks to me not just for leadership, but inspiration. While you, you're a few slender chromosomes away from corpsehood." (download, history)

H-09 Tank

Viktor: "H-09, put the Hex in their place. Six feet underground should suffice." (download, history)
Viktor: "H-09, destroy this plague and all those who would spread it. You have your orders." (download, history)

Viktor: "Our prize must survive. Our plans depend on it. Stormfall, eliminate these... these... rats." (download, history)

Mid-Fight Taunts

Viktor: "I wonder, Hex, if we stick your lifeless, putrid heads on a stake in the middle of my town square, as our ancestors did, do you think that will scare off the rest of the Techrot? I am unsure, but it's worth a shot, don't you think?" (download, history)
Viktor: "Nightingale, nightingaaale. Do you think the citizens of my fair city will rise up and follow your beautiful song? Have you looked in the mirror. You are as hideous as the blight they cower from. You are a common thrush." (download, history)
Viktor: "Some see the Techrot as a disaster. I see the opportunity to remake this city, my city. No more of the laziness, the blasphemy, the mental rot. This is my chance to cleanse, to purge, to make this city powerful once again." (download, history)
Viktor: "I am not fooled. Hex, you and the Techrot are one and the same. You are freaks. Terminally so. Your death will be a mercy. It will be an absolution." (download, history)
