Ashkandi

Seriously, doing a Queue after Cory’s massive optical pun extravaganza 2021 was not a  great idea for the guy who gets routine injections and occasional laser blasts to his retina, burning holes in it. But what I want doesn’t matter, when what I’ve chosen is at hand — a Tuesday Queuesday, as it were.

I was going to use a header image of C’thun for this, but then I remembered Ashkandi has a big eyeball in the hilt, and here we are.

I’m listening to Gladiator by Zayde Wolf.  Now you can too!

Honestly, it’s really freaking bright in the Badlands around Night City and there’s a lot of sandstorms, I feel like goggles would be very practical there.

I’m afraid the entirety of yesterday’s Queue is going to be about a boat, but maybe I’ll get luck and there will be some questions.

It’s been a long time since an Ashkandi screenshot lead the Queue, hasn’t it? Well, here’s my new Dwarf Warrior, with her Wildhammer face tattoos and a great big honking sword, in the classic World of Warcraft idiom.

This is the Queue. Let’s talk WoW and other stuff.

Blame ReclusiveCreation, he asked about good looks to go with Ashkandi and the one in the header is one of my favorites. It’s not on a Vulpera but I don’t have any Vulpera.

Ashkandi, Greatsword of the Brotherhood.

I won’t lie, it’s the one reason I might actually play WoW Classic at some point.

Like, just imagine this for a moment.  I know I’ve been anti-nostalgia in the past, but what if — just imagine this, cause it would be so weird — what if Blizzard just decided to go ahead and release vanilla World of Warcraft servers and let people play the game the way it was before The Burning Crusade came out?

I think this could actually work.

Anyway, until that happens, let’s do that Queue we often do.

Today’s Queue header was brought to you by Phil Davis Giles, who tweeted it at me yesterday while I was recovering from my eye injections — you know, the ones I need to keep being able to see but which hurt a lot. So I was very appreciative to get such a cool picture, based on my ranting during last week’s Queue. Anyway, check it out in all its glory — I had to crop it to fit the Queue header, sadly enough — and also, here’s Scott Leyes excellent runner up.

Let’s Queue this.

Look, it’s a nice song.

Hi. Matt’s sick, so this Queue is being answered by me. Ashkandi, Greatsword of the Brotherhood.

I’m a sword.

This is the last Queue I’ll be writing in 2018.

It’s been a heck of a year, some good, some really bad. It’s finally over. Next year will, I hope and pray, be slightly better for all of us. I hope you all had a good holiday if you celebrated it, and if not, I hope your week has been peaceful.
