How well do you know all things totalwar?
I thought it would be fun to do a quick quiz to test my fellow patrons knowledge of the totalwar series and the Org. I have decided to do 12 questions, for the 12 days of Christmas, so I shall post the answers on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
Now of course, it is possible to get them all correct by "cheating" and searching the Org or firing up the game, but that wouldn't be in the Christmas spirit would it now folks? So please try and answer all the questions from memory. When I post the answers I shall give everyone their marks.
So here goes with Mount Suribachis first ever totalwar Christmas quiz!
1) What was the original working title of Shogun: Total War?
2) Which legendary 80s programmer, author of a string of hit strategy titles is now a programmer at The Creative Assembly?
3) Which clan in Shogun: Total War are alliances with completely pointless, as they will only stab you in the back as soon as possible anyway?
4) In MTW Viking Invasion, what is my home province? Clue - its the same as for Ithaskar Fearindel.
5) (a) What was Devastatin Daves previous name?
(b) Under both names, in total how many times has he been banned at the Org?
6) According to Org legend, how many campaigns has Gregoshi
(a) Started?
(b) Finished?
7) Which battle was featured in the first ever episode of Time Commanders on BBC2?
8) Name the following MTW Vices and Virtues from their descriptions

(b) Prohibition of inter-marriage of cousins have rarely been obeyed in this mans family. -2 Acumen, -2 Command.
(c) His efforts to defend against potential assassins go to insane lengths - an important guest was killed by a pit trap whilst looking for the privy (he has not yet been missed). +3 Valour, -3 Acumen.
9) Name the (3) starting provinces of Hungary in the high period of MTW
10) Which classic PC game is the source of Frogbeasteggs name?
11) Which patron has the most posts on the Org?
