Panzer Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Thanks to Diablo 2: Lord of Destruction I pronounce Baal as "bale." After 16 years, I don't see that changing. "Ball" just doesn't have the same ring to it.Because nobody ever pronounces it "Ball" lol My group does actually... Wow...now I feel sad for you. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337372-real-simple-is-it-bale-or-ball/page/2/#findComment-4840288 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkangilos Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 In Oklahoma I've only ever heard Bale, but I don't have many friends and have only rarely heard others talking about it. :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337372-real-simple-is-it-bale-or-ball/page/2/#findComment-4840802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 So to conclude this topic: pronounce it whatever way you feel comfortable with because it gets pronounced differently depending on where you live anyway. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337372-real-simple-is-it-bale-or-ball/page/2/#findComment-4840812 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helias_Tancred Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 How many have listened to the audio drama Herald of Sanguinus? How did Azkaellon pronounce it? That is how I've always pronounced it, based on what I hear from that audio drama. Actually I pronounced it "Ball" even before that, but the audio drama confirmed it for me. ... then years later I listed to Space Hulk on youtube. lol.

Crimson Ghost IX Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Bahl is the way I will say it for life *nod. The BA audio dramas are awesome. =) Pharos (HH) - when Sanguinius says "Too Many Times" to the door behind an exiting Roboute declaring basically "when have you ever known me to be reckless" before he leaves is one of my favorite parts of the series. When Sanguinius is ashamed for wanting Azkaellons blood when Curze has blooded him is another favorite in the Imperium Secondus storylines. That entire encounter with Curze in the HH audio drama is amazing stuff in my opinion. But I have a soft spot for both charatcers. =) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/337372-real-simple-is-it-bale-or-ball/page/2/#findComment-4843980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I keep seeing the title of this thread and laughing. "Real simple", heh. 2 pages later, and no consensus, nor will there ever be one. Just don't call Corbulo "Cor-bow-low" like Jawaballs does and you'll be fine.
