    Tokus*Maximus Patron: Garbarsardar; Citizen 01/06/2007
    Hr. Alf han hugg til han var mod, Han sto i femten Ridderes Blod; Sĺ tog han alle de Kogger ni Og sejlede dermed til Norge fri. Og der kom tidende til Rostock ind, Der blegned saa mangen Rosenkind. Der grćd Enker og der grćd Břrn, Dem hadde gjort fattig den skadelige Řrn.

    Well, if I, Belisarius, the Black Prince, and you all agree on something, I really don't think there can be any further discussion.

    That would have been when he visited while I was still in China. Though I can't remember getting him drunk. I think he's still there as a matter of fact.

    lol, of course I'm an Aussie. Kiwis are basically Aussies in denial though. The society is quite hard to join. There is a ritual that must be undergone before being accepted:


    Step 1 Purchase a beer
    Step 2 Drink it
    Step 3 Purchase another beer
    Step 4 Drink it
    Step 5 Consider posting on the forum
    Step 6 Say 'fukit' and buy another beer
    Step 7 Drink it
    Step 8 Find a pic of your beer on the internet, add the flag from my sig to it in some way and add to your sig
    Step 9 Purchase another beer
    Step 10 Go to the toilet
    Step 11 Drink it (the beer, not the toilet)
    Step 12 Slap the missus on the arse and tell her that foreplay is over and its time to root
    Step 13 Recover from face slap by drinking another beer
    Step 14 Get comfy on the lounge, turn on the footy.
    Step 15 pass out

    Even older than that.

    http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/TWC:Tot...Center_History

    As real life issues increasingly detracted from the time Paul Dacoste was able to devote to running the site, its two moderators, Juan Siblesz (aka Siblesz) and Aden Lucas (aka the Black Prince) were given admin status and tasked with reforming and rejuvenating the site. Together with Paul, they formed an administrative Triumvirate. The biggest success of their leadership was the illegal hosting of video recordings of the BBC2 and Lion TV Production "Time Commanders". This show used the engine for Rome Total War, which was unreleased at the time, to recreate historical battles that teams of ordinary people could fight in in a Total War Style. As the show was unavailable in the US, there was great demand for images and recordings of it. Several British members of TWC made these available to the admin staff, which hosted them on TWC's server, and advertised this fact around the wider community. By the end of the first season of Time Commanders, TWC was one of only 2 websites providing the content, and greatly increased its membership because of this. It brought the website to the forefront of the community, though this also resulted it attracting the wrath of Creative Assembly and threats of legal action over copyright issues.
    I still hate CA for that and for being banned from the official forums for quoting the devs and using their own humour on them back in 2003. Long live Legiontotalwar.com!...oh yeah..CA killed it.

    That appears to be the up to date list of the Royal House of the Black Prince. Don't think I've missed anyone, according to the official records, but if there's any young squires I don't know about...

    If anyone of graphical ability would care to make something pretty of that, it would be welcomed!

    The Black Prince, according to info from aikanár Anthonius II had a client/son named Caesar Clivus and he is my patron. So I guess I'm the youngest squire, and only since a few days so.

    Am I part of a spesific TWC house?
    TGC in order to continue its development seak one or more desicated scripters to put our campaign scripts mess to an order plus to create new events and create the finall missing factions recruitment system. In return TGC will give permision to those that will help to use its material stepe by step. The result will be a fully released TGC plus many mods that will benefit TGC's material.
    Despite the mod is dead does not mean that anyone can use its material
    read this to avoid misunderstandings.

    IWTE tool master and world txt one like this, needed inorder to release TGC 1.0 official to help TWC to survive.
    Adding MARKA HORSES in your mod and create new varietions of them. Tutorial RESTORED.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it.


    The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.


    If you desire to be good, begin by believing that you are wicked.


    We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.


    οὕτως ἀταλαίπωρος τοῖς πολλοῖς ἡ ζήτησις τῆς ἀληθείας, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ἑτοῖμα μᾶλλον τρέπονται.


    Questions are not necessarily there to be answered, but possibly there to inspire thinking.


    Nullius addictus iurare in verba magistri, - quo me cumque rapit tempestas, deferor hospes.


    If mind is common to us, then also the reason, whereby we are reasoning beings, is common. If this be so, then also the reason which enjoins what is to be done or left undone is common. If this be so, law also is common; if this be so, we are citizens; if this be so, we are partakers in one constitution; if this be so, the Universe is a kind of commonwealth.


    Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.


    There is no chaos in the world, only complexity.
    Knowledge of the complex is wisdom.
    From wisdom of the world comes wisdom of the self.
    Mastery of the self is mastery of the world. Loss of the self is the source of suffering.
    Suffering is a choice, and we can refuse it.
    It is in our power to create the world, or destroy it.


    Homo homini lupus est. Homo sacra res homini.


    When deeds speak, words are nothing.


    Human history is a litany of blood, shed over different ideals of rulership and afterlife


    Sol lucet omnibus.


    You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.


    Neither should a ship rely on one small anchor, nor should life rest on a single hope.


    The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.


    Ο Νούς νοεί τον εαυτόν του ως κράτιστος και η νόησή του είναι της νοήσεως νόησις.


    'Nothing is true, everything is permitted.' is merely an observation of the nature of reality. To say that nothing is true, is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say that everything is permitted, is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.

    You're part of tBP's house from what I can see, Anthonius.
