I still hear that from time to time when closing the windows of some commanders.

Heh, I also hear the Screams of the Dying sometimes when the Hosting screen says "AI thinking".

I've heard that before as well. Usually in the same turn when the commanders death screams are available.

That would be the souls we used in forging the game. Be sure not to stay up at night alone with your computer.

This is some perverse inside joke right?

Often times you will hear the death sound of a unit when you close the recruiting or detailed view of the unit on the recruiting screen.

So it is a joke rooted in a "feature" that happens occasionally.

If there is a joke, it has a real effect of having the sounds of death screams during the hosting or closing the view window while in the recruit screen for some commanders. I'm surprised you haven't heard it; maybe it's some driver-specific "feature".

My favorite perverse joke so far has been the slave collar on Madam Fortuna (a mercenary). Now that is a joke.
