[PASSED 01/25/09] [Artifex] Eothese (Patron: Augustus Lucifer)

[B. Ward]

Client: Eothese

I am honoured to receive Augustus Lucifer kind offer of patronage. I understand the rights and privileges associated with citizenship and if my nomination is successful, I shall endeavour to maintain the highest standards of conduct. I feel my past work on my ‘Expanded Americas’ mod for M2TW Kingdoms, should be adequate for the rank of Artifex.

In addition to this I have been involved in the introduction of RTW style Wardog units into M2TW. This aspect of my latest endeavour is still in the testing stages and a screen shot of the unit in action is available.

Further to this I have worked out how to mount foot units such as Naffatun and Greek Firethrowers. I have also written a tutorial in how to achieve this.

I consider myself a regular poster in the M2TW mod workshop. I enjoy helping less experienced modders deal with their problems and always carefully consider my replies before posting. I have received a lot of support and advice from the TWC community during the development of Expanded Americas and feel it is only right to return that goodwill in whatever way I can.

Gentlemen,

It is my pleasure to present to you Eothese, for your consideration to ascend to the rank of Artifex. Based on his own assertions, you can gather that he is a valuable contributor to the modding portion of the site.

As a modder myself, I feel strongly that the greatest work a fellow modder can do for the community is participate actively in the Workshop. In our current system, the most effective method for training new modders is to see that their questions are answered in an effective and timely manner. This is also one of the best ways a modder can accustom themselves to the process. Since the future of the modding community relies on new blood, as few are the modders who have the time to pursue continual involvement, those like Eothese who go beyond the call to help new modders should be recognized for their efforts.

In addition to the workshop endeavors, Eothese has mentioned above some of his other projects. The Expanded Americas mod is an ideal direction for the modding community, as it will be increasingly harder as we progress to complete projects on the scale of your EB's and RTR's. It is well put together and he continually seeks to improve upon it, even though it has already been deemed plenty to warrant its own forum. Lastly, it should be said that Eothese was previously to be proposed by J@mes, a great modder in his own right, but due to certain complications it fell through the cracks until now.

[Pontifex Maximus]

Yes.

[aja5191]

Yes..

[Captain Blackadder]

Looks like an easy candidate a released mod plus helping the rest of the community with various guides such as the mounting units and creating greek fire cannon. Its an easy yes at least from my somewhat inexperience tw eye.

[Soulghast]

Definitely yes. Great work on the Americas Mod, which I believe would have been enough to grant him citizenship on its own, plus his other work with the Wardogs and mounting units. I bet these specific ones would be interesting to try out, a mounted flamethrower will most certainly be cool. Anyway, there isn't much to say, good all around candidate.

[Fabolous]

As if his modding work wasn't enough (wardogs!) he is an excellent contributor in the workshop. A very, very good candidate. More than worthy.
