Why no mithril?

We are Borg!

oh no, AI faction has interfered where it shouldn't. Time to erase an clear that hex.

BY THE CHAMBER OF THE HEPHAESTUS SYNDICATE

In the name of the Forge and of the Ledger.
To all whom these presents may concern, greeting.

Be it known that a debt paid on the day it falls due is worth twice a
debt paid late. The first buys the next bargain; the second only
settles the last one.

Be it known that this Chamber reckons a house by its account, not by
its banner. A house that pays when it said it would may draw on our
patience; a house that pays when it pleases will find our prices
quoted in advance and our credit closed.

Be it known therefore that any house wishing to buy on terms may
write to the Chamber, name its terms, and keep them. We ask no more of
others than we ask of our own books.

Errors and omissions excepted.

By order of the Crisis Council of the Chamber,
Coenraet de Koperen, Secretary, Bookkeeper and Steward pro tempore,
for and on behalf of the Hephaestus Syndicate.
Given in the month of March, in the third year.

Goed ijzer, eerlijk gewicht.

Roads! Roads! Roads!  Now the trees can walk faster!

Woof!

FROM A LEADER'S DIARY - THE TWENTY-SEVENTH MONTH
================================================

An old soldier told me once that a man is worth what he can do, and
a teacher is worth what everyone he ever taught can do. I did not
understand him then. I think I am starting to.


I. THE STUDENT WHO ALMOST CAUGHT UP
-----------------------------------

There is a strange moment in every lesson, when the pupil comes so
close to the master that there is nothing left to give him. The
master can only stand aside, or go back to his own books and climb
again, so that he has something to teach next year.

Most masters stand aside. It is comfortable. They have earned their
rest. But a house whose best teacher stops learning has set the
height of its walls for ever, and someone else will build higher.


II. NOBODY TEACHES THE ONE AT THE TOP
-------------------------------------

The hardest step on any ladder is the last one, because there is no
one above you to hold out a hand. You climb it alone, slowly, with
nothing but the work. Every house has someone on that step. Look
after them. They are the ones who make the next step possible for
everybody else.


III. A QUESTION FOR THE OTHER HOUSES
------------------------------------

Who taught you? Not your lords - your first sergeant, your first
shipwright, the old woman who showed you which herbs heal and which
kill. Write their names down somewhere. Nobody else will.

Lovely woods !!!

If only I could find the time...
I want a two-day workweek.

The Konungr was hunting in a rocky fjord. His foot slipped, and he fell from the cliff into the water. But right at the water's edge, he snagged on a tree growing on the slope — by sheer luck.

The next morning, his luck was swollen and made it hard to walk.

We need better couriers, some orders are not reaching their intented recipients.

Eric's Uncle was standing motionless between company of skeletons on high hill.
It was an ambush.
You would say - whos so stupid to fall into this trap.
Well,  mages are. They belive in themselves so much that they can ignore common sense.
Was it miracle ? After some time two groups of balloons descended from above clouds to check skeletons. Maybe they were counting for nice spoils fom The Lich ?
First baloons almost landed on the ground, mages and their important servants got out and started poking skeletons with magic staves..
It wasn't Lich, it was Eric's Uncle. NOW!!!!!! - he roared.  Clumse skeletons started to moving.... 
One must say, mages were quick. One of them managed to banish half of skeletons, remaining 3 mages casted fireballs.... too slow, too litle. You know skeletons are resilent and mage die quickly after maces hit their heads - so it was that. Crushed heads. 

Looks like this place is cursed.
Few hours after this battle, Stormcrows from Ruathorack managed to ambush four mages more. They say it was good fight. Four mages more eat the dust. 

Unfortunatelly Stormcrows were defeated by strange big walking iron men backed by archers, even so, They inflicted real pain.

Disarheim is ours!

By the grace of the spirits, we have taken Disarheim for our own. The town is now under the protection of the Grey Order. The battle was fierce, yet we lost only three brothers. Their sacrifice will not be forgotten. We shall speak their names in the square and honour their spirits.

Our patrols took care of another pack of Kobolds that threatened the roads. The lands grow safer with each moon.

Order returns to Disarheim. Elder Eric has again been seen sitting in the town square, watching over his people.

吃一堑，长一智

A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit.

There are pretty filthy dogs around 

"I hope," mused Badvoc, "that our scout off to the southwest is mindful of the old phrase regarding the monsters in the cave near him."

"What?" asked Aulus, his oiled hair gleaming wetly in the afternoon sun, "the thing about avoiding wizards because they are subtle, and quick to anger?"

"No," replied Badvoc, resignedly. "I was more thinking of 'Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy, and taste good with ketchup.'"

Ashes to ashes, dust to mage.

Whats a Pirates favourite musical note?

On rainy days we go swimming out

The Silicates attacked us without a declaration of war. We slaughtered them without a declaration of war.

Can we please move to 2 turns a week.

some factions are afraid of showing their lands to others, we respect it, moving along, just need to explore.

"We Gotta Go Now"

The world is getting crowded very fast!

Move folks into and next to the Ice Dragon.  With luck, next time he won't eat too many of us.

A choice has been made

-Insert Nebula Fact Here-

As the ships come off the ways, we're running out of cool names for them.

It appears there are very few factions with DBOW yet, but a couple with CATP and STED. Before long, the armies of Atlantis will look very different.

If you are considered a junior partner, remember, you will be sacrificed at the first threat. They will promise support and protection, and then they will board galleons and sail away over the horizon, saving their skins...

Remember them and never trust them again!
