  • Valhalla Herald Article Sign up for volume 3

    Aiming for a release date of sometime between Wed and Fri (depends on how soon I can get it all done and how many participate)

    Articles that are open for submitting:

    2 cities founded
    [edit]
    Battle of Edrine - Nuclear Master
    Battle of Uskudur - History Guy
    [/edit]
    Ottomans peace proposal
    Anything fun you can think of: - GK and anyone else who wants.

    OK, I want the 2 founded cities in one article and a seperate report for each of the battles on the cities we captured (will get names and details in here as soon as the official report goes up)

    [edit]The hell with it. Some investigative reporting reveals these two battles and details.

    Battle of Edrine: One archer took it, promoted to elite, still looking for numbers of Injured.

    Battle of Uskudur: Archer stack took town, 2 promoted to elite, still looking for casualties[/edit]

    Anyone feeling graphically inclined care to try a cartoon (or in the case of GF a 'page 2 girl')? Our regular artist is off on business...



    Valhalla Herald guide to casualties

    Each infantry unit in game consists of 1000 men.

    Therefore, each hit point is considered # of wounded, if an elite archer/sword/spear/infantry/etc takes a town and loses 1 hit point, it is therefore known that 200 men were injured in the battle. If the Archer was Regular, it would have been 330 men injured. A unit lost counts as 1000 dead.

    Wheeled, cavalry, and later mobile units will consist of 100.

    So, an elite HORSE/Knight/cav/tank/etc taking one hitpoint damage would be considered to have had 20 horses injured, a reg horse, 33 etc. A unit lost would be considered as 100 destroyed.

          I asked (assigned) dejon to write up a report on the battles for the paper. Hopefully he will.

          I will attempt to finish up the things I am working on. Let me know if you need anything else. I probably will not be able to get anything to you prior to late on thursday / early friday.

            What's this?

            Is the government attempting to take over my paper? Or you just attempting to assign away my position as well now?

            I smell a strike comming!!!! (they are always fun)

            I can see it now, wherever you go, each post, each chat, each move, there will be Valhalla Herald protesters following you with signs for the Freedom of the Press! And I KNOW you know I am capable of it!!!

            You wish to compete, perhaps? Very well, free market and all. Ill crush your upstart paper just like I did The Apolytonian and the...well, there was another one there at the start of the first Demo Game, both are so far from memory the names escape me!

            WHO's WITH ME!?!?!

            Say no to government controlled newspaper!!!!

                  I had intended to submit that article, but when a newcomer volunteered to do the job, I didn't want to step on their toes, so I didn't say anything.

                  Instead, I will endeavour to create more news-worthy events for the Vikings in the future!

                  All I ask of Nuclear Master is that he read the chatlog to be sure he includes the funny names and bits around the event that make it so memorable for me already, and surely will for everyone who reads his article as well.
