    Default Proposal The Kingdom Of England

    The kingdom of England

    The year is 888Ad the kingdom of Wessex on the island af England. King Alfred sits upon a secure throne having ten years previously defeated the Danes who had taken England and almost succeed in conquering her. It was Alfred`s great leadership and war craft that led the English from the brink of defeat and slavery into what is hoped will be a new era of hope for the land.

    Alfred now looks to other lands to bring unto himself, Scotland would be an obvious choice then perhaps after he secures the whole of the isles he can then look abroad and see what the foreigners can offer to him and his people.


    The kingdom of England is a proposed new Community Role Playing game by Lord Flasheart and KoS. The game will be based on some historical fact and authenticity with a good dose of creative licensing thrown in for good measure. This will be old school Role-playing with a minimum set of rules so as not to hinder confuse or restrict new players to the game, common senses will be relied on in the most part to ensure things run smoothly.

    The actual game play will of course be heavily role-played but the actual events and lands we conquer will be determined by playing a turn each week on our chosen mod and in this case it will be the quite brilliant Sicilian Vespers mod using the Dark Ages Campaign. The Turn will begin each Friday and will be passed around to the people who initially have control of lands, as we progress and conquer and more lands and titles are awarded so then will the save be offered up to the other players, so if you wish to get fully involved you will need to down load the mod.

    Good stuff glad you all are going to join in as i said in the OP this will be a very turn dependent game for all crucial decisions.@Ace no it covers a heck of a lot of Europe and the east so we will come up against a lot of European factions.At the start of the turn the Danes are still camping out in Nottingham and York with just London Colchester and Penzance being held by the Saxons.On top of that the mod is quite difficult indeed we will need to build our resources to begin with before we can even contemplate going to war even in our own country.

    I find it quite funny that Carl and KoS will be moderating with you Flash.

    I like the idea flash, get back to how GSTK used to be, maybe it will work with a fresh start.
