What does Brytenwalda mean?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

A little of History: Anno Domini 636:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Edwin, King of Deira, has died some years ago, his great rival, Cadwallon ap Cadfan, king of Gwynedd, after ravaging the north with his armies, was killed by Oswald the new lord of the north, the ambitious son of Æthelfrith and Edwin's sister, he now rules on Bernacia, Deira and Elmet.

Oswald the powerful, who has proclaimed Brytenwalda, who is willing to dispute the title?, Who is willing to confront the most powerful king in Britain?

The world is at war, only respects the law of the sword and spear. There are realms that are born and die every single day, kings die on the battle fields.

On East, the Angles, Jutes consolidate domains and claim for more land.
On South, the Saxons, led by Cynegils, have teamed up with Oswald, cornering Penda, king of the Angles de Mierce, The March. Will Mierce resist being surrounded by enemies?
King Penda is bloody and violent, many kings have been killed by his sword and promises to kill many more. He call to meet the men under his command to go to war.

Meanwhile, Christianity extending from Centware (Jute Kingdom), and it is converting the barbarians.

Pushed against the coast, the Welsh are fighting for every inch of land, but are too divided, dreaming of the return of a king to unify all and lead to the final victory, they dream with an incoming King Arthur. But Arthur is dead, and all eyes look to Cynddylan, the king of Pengwern, brave as a lion, but unable to join under his banner all the other kings.

And Gwynedd, a fertile kingdom in great warriors, is silent, unable to hear the sound of the advancing armies threatening their land. Gwynedd cry to Great Cadwallon, scourge of the Angles and Saxons, who has left a son, a King 3 year old.

In the snowy lands of the North, fight the Irish, Dal Riata, and the Picts. Their kings share blood, but the Irish are invading in land of Cait, kingdom of the Picts. The Picts, with their faces painted and their female warriors, are now united under one king and they are stronger than ever.

Across the sea, in Ireland, Domnaill mac Aedo, of Ui Neill´s clan has emerged as High King in Temair after defeating his enemies. But it isnt more than a prestigious title that recognizes him as the most powerful of the island. Around him, clans are fighting for land, women and cattle in fratricidal wars. The war in Ireland is endemic.

Who can bring light to this world of war and misery?

i hate the battle system

i keep hitting my enemies hard, and they just lose 4-6 HP.. wtf

**Adorno1** · July 24, 2010, 08:15 PM

Yeah, it's strange. But armour is also low on many troops, so wait until you get to a high level character and you're a killing machine.
I would like to see weapon damage, and especially speed, increased.

**Yoda Twin** · July 24, 2010, 11:54 PM

the scenes, as always Adorno, look incredible, love the time period and will definately be downloading soon

**Armatus** · July 25, 2010, 01:52 PM

Absolutely love your forts!!!

What sort of salary do you desire???

**Adorno1** · July 26, 2010, 05:46 AM

I'm only hired by my heart

I love Dark Age Britain. The castle there is supposed to be an Irish ring fort made with dry-stone walls:

Close enough

**Ishoss** · July 31, 2010, 04:27 PM

Great mod. I love it.

**Ishoss** · August 01, 2010, 03:43 PM

A question: I took a bunch of bounties and this made every village in Canterbury quite angry at me. No problem there. However it also seems that EVERY SINGLE GODDAMNED village in the world noticed my killing-spree down there and I have -2 relations with every village. That's a tad annoying... Why would a pict care (or know...) that I butchered a bunch of jutes?

Or is this a bug?

**Ishoss** · August 01, 2010, 04:25 PM

And now it's -3, without me actually having done anything besides winning a tournament.

I know others reported this as annoying, and I think Idibil is changing it for next version.
