https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/images/medals/editor.gif The 'Edit' award
While the Hall of Fame awards are given to those who the public vote as the best in their fields, the 'edit' award is granted by the staff as a body to those modders whom they consider have had the greatest impact on the community.
It is rarely awarded - and indeed has only been awarded in relation to Rome Total War once before. We began with a far longer list of RTW modders who've contributed to the community and whittled it down to these few final award winners who've shown an exceptional commitment to their projects since Rome was released.
So, congratulations to:
[cf]Adherbal, alpaca, caius britannicus, DARTH_VADER, Epistolary Richard, khelvan, lt1956, Malrubius, Myrddraal, Prometheus, Vercingetorix
Congratulations also to the previous RTW recipient, hoggy.
