OK, if everybody's got a secret project, then here's mine... ;)

Fiera, for the flag of the Holy Roman Empire you can use a black eagle on yellow ground. This was used by the Staufer, an old German family of aristokrats (many medieval Geman kings/HRE emperors were from this family, for instance Friedrich I. "Barbarossa").

I think in some flag collections are such flags.

[Fiera]

Yeah, thanks. At the beginning of my scn, the Emperor was Friedrich II. I believe he came from that family, but aren't they called the 'Hohenstaufen'?

Don't forget to put in Sardinia the Arborea's family... Why you spaniards always forget about the over one hundred year wars to conquer Sardinia ?

P.S.
My mother's family surname is Fois, so... great work, JGV.
P.P.S.
Glad i could help you in your Pizarro project...

[Fiera]

Hi, there, Prometeus!

I was looking forward to your opinion on my project! I'm not forgetting about Sardinia... there will be four cities in it, all of them Objectives, and I plan to make its conquest very hard...

So you come from a Catalonian family, don't you? I think you'll find very interesting to play my scn as the Aragonese...

Fiera, what platform is this going to be available on? MGE? FW?

[Fiera]

Oops! Forgot to say that!

It will be FW. I guess most people will be able to open it.

After nearly two day of system chrashes and slooow net connections I´m happy to be back here at Apolyton...

Fiera, great to hear that the scn is for FW
For the emperor´s family they use in some history books the expression the "Staufer", I think it´s a short form of the title "von Hohenstaufen", so it is the same name (but I´m not completely sure about that)

Hi, BeBro, good to see you're back!

Yes, they must be the same family. It's just that I never had heard 'Staufer' before.

I've took your Empire flag from Cross&Crescent, as well as your French flag, which were both very good. I hope you don't mind.

The flags were only a bit modified by me, but I have forgotten where I found them, so I can´t credit the creator (at first I thought it was J.Balsinde, but I´m not sure...) but, however, this person hasn´t complained about the use of these flags until now, so you probably have the permission...

Hi there again!
I'm sorry but I've spent most of this week studying for my exam and I haven't been able to reach a playtesteable stage yet.

I still have to do all the events and the pedia but it won't be long, so... stay tuned!

Hmmm... after what Aragonese kings did to my family, probably not.

[Fiera]

OK, then you can always play as the Castilians and kick those Aragonese in the ass...

Update note: I'm working on the last details of the scn now that I have free time. Hope it will be available very soon.

[BeBMan]

Good news, Fiera. Can´t wait to play it!
