Most will know him as one of DARTH VADERS's most active team members, where he spends most of his time and has become the creator of the Darth Mod map. He has also become involved in his own projects, namely the Arthurian Total War mod and the upcoming mod for the Kingdoms expansion: "The Kingdom of the Scots". For his dedication to modding and teamwork at TWC, I would like to recommend that he be awarded the rank of Artifex.

When I first starting modding I was using Rome Total Realism which i created two mini mods for:

1. A Disasters Mod which overhauled the frequency and whereabouts of these.
2. A Morale Mod to stop units routing quickly.

I also worked on DarthMod 8.0 after I became hooked on Darths gameplay and cmpletely redesigned the resources on the map....nearly every single region was reworked by researching historical websites and books.

Then when RTW BI was released I got involved with the Arthurian Total War mod headed by Agraes and sent many months helping run and design the mod while Agraes was too busy with study. I created firstly a resource mod and went on to lead the team jointly with Agraes

Then, when MTW2 was released I became a member of DarthMod and redsigned the Vanilla Map Provinces, added a heraldry system (based on Rawghis Heraldry Mod), and have now just implemented a mercenary mod which features 35 new mercenary units, while also modifying the original mercenary placement and frequency.

Finally, I am now working on a variation of Spurius's Large Map 0.99i for DarthMod to be used as a Provincial Campaign.

Thank you for your consideration.

Kind Regards
Border Reiver

I wish I were on the CdeC right now. Definitely worthy, I had the pleasure of working with him on Arthurian and the man is a machine. I had been considering asking him myself.

He has no warnings to speak of.
