Stories
of Boggy B and Servadac

Three stories are available for your disposal, all with amazing intrigue and thrilling excitement:
The story of Boggy B
The Real story of Boggy B
The story of Servadac and the namechanging mess


This story is not official, I made it up myself, but some details are from Team 17's creations. Also, this one is mostly based on my Boggy B character, although I have mixed it up a little with the real (the wormsong). Here we go:


O nce upon a time there where a land of worms. The worms lived in peace and the only thing they did were digging holes in the ground and eating dirt. But, as the time passed on, the worms got smarter, they developed horrible weapons and they had cruel
thoughts about taking over others land. A war was unavoidable.

WW1, Worm War 1, started. The war was much more devastating than the old dirtthrowing wars that had taken place in the medieval worm history. This was a war of advanced weaponry like the explosive sheep and the banana bomb, this was for real.

At the time this war raged on, Boggy B was just a little pink young shaver, two years old. His father leaved for the battle and he never came back. Boggy B started to train, for he knew that he, like all others, would have to go one day.

The warworms got tired and peace came with it's bright light to the worm world. At least to the world were Boggy lived, because the war had started war all over the world, and communications were bad. so they didn't know when the others stopped fighting, so the countries in the far reaches continued (probably). But the peace had not come to stay and due to political problems or a dictators words of destruction or WHATEVER! THE DAMN WAR GOT STARTED AGAIN!


The Worm War 2 Map


The war scenario of Worm War 2, showing the situation for
Boggy B's country. The red lines are land frontiers and the
black dashed lines are trenches... or is it the other way? Anyway
the dark red arrows show large troop movements, and black
squares are capitals.



Now it was Worm War 2 and the horrible weaponry had gotten even horribler. The worms had gotten even madder and meaner, and the screen resolution was improved... er well. And at last it was time for Boggy B to go out in the world and show it what he was made of.

In the beginning Boggy was a little bit unlearned, and he got to taste the dust a few times. Having only been training with his little brothers he had not much of a real life experience, but after a few duels against enemy worms, Boggy got the hold of what it was all about and started to win battle after battle. But it's a large world and he is probably still out there slaking his thirst for worm blood...



The
Real Boggy B Story

This is not any realer than the previous Boggy B story, I just call it "real" because it's the story of how it all started for me, how I first got insulted in this whole Worms mess:

I t all started in dark december of 1995, when I got my hands on a computer magazine, with an article about Worms and a demo. There was such a great lot of info about it there, mainly just because a member of Team 17 was also a member of that magazine's editorial staff. Who it was? Björn Lynne ofcourse! The music and soundeffects guy! Anyway, I read the article and I really thought it sounded interesting. I was on vacation then, and the first thing I did when I got home was to try that Worms demo. Even though it only had two levels, an early and quite bad looking weapon menu, no sound and only one difficulty of computer opponents, I loved it (you can find just that demo on the download section). It was like nothing else, addictive and awfully neat. At that stage, the game had not been released (at least not in Sweden, where I live) so I had to play that demo all day long.

When I finally got hold of a copy of the whole game, what can you say, I was not dissapointed. It didn't work so well on my 486 33Mhz but I could play it, which was most important. From that stage and on It's not much more to say. Ofcourse I buyed the Reinforcements pack, and later Worms 2. I can still remember me downloading the Worms 2 demo (with my awful modem it took about 2 hrs) and finally unpacking it and playing it, what a feeling. Wonderful. Well, now I've also become a member of the worming world on the net, and, I'm really looking forward to play Worms 2: Reinforcements or Wormaggedon or whatever it will be named, which I belive, will be great.

That's about it. Congratulations, you've read the whole thing! Now go do something with a meaning, like play Worms! Or you could always read


The story of Servadac and the namechanging mess

W hatever you do, DON'T change your nickname for stuff on the Internet, believe me, I know the pain, I know the suffer. I've been through it all. Well, I did change my name from Boggy B to Servadac. Who the hell is Servadac, you say? Well If you've read a book called something like "Hector Servadac's travels in outerspace" by the great classics author Jules Verne, you know. Otherwise you don't. God damn it, there are many nicknames out there much sillier than Servadac. So, I thought it sounded cool, took it, and I REALLY hope no member on Team 17 has the same nickname, cause then I'm afraid I'll have to wear a straitjacket or something in the future...

And NO, I WILL NOT change my E-Mail address! (Err... ok, I did it anyway some time after writing this...)
