the little things
Ever notice the way an opposing hero will put his hand to his forehead and shake his head when you take out a big stack of his troops with a single attack or spell?
That's one of the little nuances of this game that I find so funny.
On that note, I was wondering if there were any other 'little things' in the game that people get a kick out of and what they might be.

Those WHACKY Inferno creatures
I like it when you attack some inferno troops and the devils are standing there doing that "come here" thing with their finger and you are about to drop some mad implosion on them, killing the whole stack.
To me that's funny.
I'm always talking to my screen saying "What was that? You want me to come over there?"
BLOP BLOP BLOP
"Ewww, you like that?!! You still want me to come over you lil biatch?!! DIDN'T THINK SO!!"
OK I'm sorry, I forgot to take my medication today.

the hypnotic effects of heroes
Once in a very slow moving ally game, we all started remarking on the little animations in the game that give it its charm. For a time, we were stuck on the rythmic motion and sounds of the water, and then entranced by the little horsies in the stables, then the glimmer of the learning stone.. and then the kicker.. that little guy in the mystical gardens doing his dance... ~~kick right, kick left and spin... kick right kick left and spin~~ well once we started watching that, the game became infinately less interesting, as we were all lost in the dance

Noises
Those damn nighing horses! Everytime I turn the volume up to leave the room or if I am studying during a game- I always get irritated by that. What kind of horse nighs repeatedly like that? Augh!!! Also the barking dogs get kind of annoying. For things I like, I always enjoy the insane laughter of the Inferno town, it really gets me inspired to go fight some battles with them. Also the desparing scream when some units die is very entertaining. Like they were thrown off a cliff not hacked or clawed to death.

I like the little sound effects you hear when you are within a few spaces of adventure map locations - especially the moaning sounds of a lich structure.
One thing that brings up unpleasant childhood little league baseball memories though is the way peasants die, especially when hit by halflings - look carefully and tell me there's not a man in the world whose eyes don't tear up in sympathy.

taven sounds
The sounds when your hero is near a tavern are quite bizzare at times

I like the way skeletons die. the sound along w/ the sword in the ground is kinda funny.
when bone dragons "fall apart" it always gives mre the feeling what they were thinking (if they had a mind): ooh no there's no hope... I'll just lay right here and die, oof
hehe

Sniff it and hit it
I like when you are chaining heroes and then the turn runs out so you have one horse standing right behind the other sniffing it's butt.
Man that gets me hot. =)
One time during a particularly long turn from my opponent the 2 horses started doing the nasty and Crag Hack was knocked off one of the horses and into a mud puddle.
Needless to say a lot of laughter ensued.
From then on we all referred to Crag as "Old Muddy".
A lot of people think he is mean but he's really a nice guy.
Except for the time he broke my arm when I was trying to high five him. I think he thought I was going to slap him or something.
Anyway, thats a story for another time.

mwahahaha Mocara
Judging from that last post I can see that you've been at those aforementioned shrooms That was a goodie!
Many of the things you guys have listed I have overlooked a gazillion times. Now I'm noticing them and getting a kick out of them, too!
Thanks for the input, everyone!
Oh, another one that cracks me up is when the sprites/pixies take a hit. The sound they make reminds me of when you're........well, Deth would just edit it so I'm not gonna say it

Behemoths and Skeletons making Waves
U ever noticed that when u have 7 stacks of skeletons or behemoths , if u scroll up and down on them, they will make waves like they're in a stadium cheering they're favourite team.
