Oh damn, sorry about that. These name changes are rather confusing.:doh: Anyway, great job.

A masterfully done edition. You have done an old editor proud, Menander.
With that said, I shall vanish like a phantom into ze noot...
Question for the day: why would the First World War have had a different result to the Franco-Prussian if France had been fighting on its own against Germany.
Hmmm I would call recent events more Byzantine in nature than Western Medieval. So....who wants to play the part of the Turks?
The application thread is here.
People who wish to apply for the position of editor of the Helios should put their names down here or PM. The Board of Governors will then go through the list of candidates and interview those who...
The Board of Governors of the Helios is a group of those who wish to expand the Helios and maintain it's current level of quality.
Governors of the Helios:
Justinian
King Henry V
Menander (?)...
Gentlemen of the Curia,
I have taken the decision to depart from TWC. I have recently started a very important school year with exams at the end of it, and I find that this forum has been taking up...
When Christ and His Saints Slept
“Hi sæden openlice ðæt Crist slep. His halechen. Suilc mare þanne we cunnen sæin. We þolenden .xix. wintre for ure sinnes.”
“They said openly, that Christ slept,...
Damn voted Ireland. I meant to say that Ireland should not be in the game, as it basically was just a collection of tribes and got owned early on. Please read results as one less vote for Ireland,...
Firstly, you don't need a full stop but a verb, specifically an "are" before "constantly".
Secondly, I believe it is "who" rather than whom, though I may be wrong.
Cows, no eras and no titles? That sucks more than Michael Jackson at a Boy Scout's event. OK, so it was part of siege warfare to throw rotting cadaveers into the city. This does not mean that they...
From the accession of Otto the Great until Henry IV, and was, along with Normandy and perhaps England, the most centralised state in Western Europe. However, this power (which was relinquished to the...
The difference now is that civitates don't actually have any power, all they can do is make suggestions. They cannot ask for their proposals to be moved to a vote, nor can they vote.
Well perhaps you are right.
The only difference is that now you can be ignored more easily. "Get those smelly peasants away from my palace. Send them somewhere where their babble can be ignored". :wink:
I am of the opinion that the Musaeum subforum should be removed. With the Scriptorium in place to catalogue and record historical articles, the purpose of the Musaeum has been rendered obsolete. That...
But why should we be restrained from saying it in the first place? I'm not saying it should be amde mandatory, merely an option.
However, this Curia is meant to be one which is not as easily influenced as the last one.
Perhaps there is no benefit, however, saying "Voted" has no benefit and that is allowed.
The thing is, you don't need blood to get a good, gory battlefield. When I was playing Borodino in NTW2, after taken Bagration's Flèches, the hill was simply covered in hundreds of bodies packed into...
Super banners. I would give you rep if you had it turned on.
However, whatever Mimirswell did was before the reforms. There may be no benefit other than people's desire to express for which they have voted, however, just because there is no benefit doesn't...
I agree with you Spartan, however I think the group should be expanded to also include Opifexes, who have also made significant contributions to TWC. I am interested to hear as to what...
Do people have no backbone? If certain Patricians here are so weak they are afraid to go against the majority, then they have no business being here and may as well return to the rank of civitate.
Wrong forum I'm afraid. But it certainly is a very good book, though the author's rendition of history is somewhat peculiar (Caesar and Brutus being best buddies and all that).
Now that we are supposed to be the new and improved Curia, I think we are all mature enough not to be influenced by other member's decisions. However, I do agree that debates within the voting...
If anything, I think all people should say whether they have voted or not, just to keep a tally of who is active or inactive at one time.
Not forgetting of course, the sack of Rome by Imperial troops in 1526(?).
Well one is the spammiest staff member since the founding of TWC, the second I hardly ever see, and the third should be given the title "Of No Fixed Abode".
However, no actual organised units of beserkers were used as such. Norse warriors would sometimes go into a frenzy on the battle field, yet these were not special soldiers organised into units.
Yes, now you are of the "Imperial House of the Wolf", after the merger of the House of WBk and that of actulus.
No, he was under Pyrrhus IV's patronage, wasn't he?
I don't think the House of Caesars' standards are that low, are they? :laughter:
What, all three of them?
The quote I did not find from a reliable source, however, regarding Julius II's homosexuality, I have just dug out my copy (after much searching through all my bookshelves and my paper-littered desk)...
I agree with this version of the bill.
Ah yes, I remember that from reading a book on the Inquisition. Jesus retruns to earth )Spain to be precise), is held by the Inquisition when he tries to preach in the cathedral, and the Inquisitor...
It all depends on whether Pyrrhus can go to a good public school near him. If the private school is better than the public, then he should go private.
Well let's face it, the Popes were hardly the models of Christianity, and who believed more in the temporal importance of the position rather than the spiritual role. Pope Julius II, who commissioned...
Sorry for resurrecting a thread, but:
There are two ways to distinguish the different types of influence that Jesus and Mohammed had. If we restrict it to the influence that the person had during...
The issue and the format will be anounced at the next edition of the Helios (hopefully Sunday).
