Yah keep it here. I rarely venture far from the EB sub forums.
Well, I mostly meant to post it a second time in the Mead hall, yah know for a broader audience.
Well, as long as you post here first and then copy and paste it there. Then you are ok. :clown:
Why not just start a thread in the Mead Hall and post the link to this thread?
You could comment in it every week or so to notify people of updates and stuff; that way it would keep coming up every so often.
That's what I did with my AWS. Works OK, except people don't seem to comment on it like they do an AAR. :embarassed:
YAY NEW UPDATE TIME. I know it's short, but I have been having some problems lately. I hope to be a little more regular now.
The town was changing. Children were quite. No one was happy anymore. Everyone was just sitting around wasting away in there misery. Men groaned as they worked, children stayed inside, women didn’t speak; a stark contrast from a bustling city of two months prior.
The King needed to think of a way to relieve the city. Since the arrival of the Bononians allies, the city was attacked three times. Obviously probe attacks, they were beaten back easily. But that last one…It was different. They breached the walls, and flooded into the city. It was a miracle that the royal guard could hold them off. That’s was the real test. That was how they really measured the Ambrones force. The real attack was imminent. The people needed to flee. Judging by the strength of these attacks, there was no way that the town could be held.
Mandubracious was sleeping when Cadeyrn approached him with a plan. A good plan…A daring plan…
My lord, may I have an audience? Cadeyrn stated as he stepped into the map room. The king looked up from his studying and grinned, Ah, Cadeyrn, What is it? Please, sit. He gestured towards a chair. The warrior stepped around the chair and stood, I prefer to stand, My liege. The king eyed him cautiously. Well, what do you need? The guardsman snapped to attention, I believe I have a plan sir!
Mandubracious lounged back in his chair. Well, what is it boy? Cadeyrn leaned forward and began to point at the map of the City and its surrounding countryside. The king leaned forward to observe. You see sir; we have gates on all four sides of the wall. If the army is orientated at us coming from the north, our south is not being attacked. Thus said, we know that the city can not be held. I believe that we should retreat the populace to the south, across the river, while some men remain behind to fight for the town as a distraction. I believe with this, it will allow us to live to fight another day. Cadeyrn stood straight as he waited for the kings answer.
Mandubracious stood and paced. It was daring, It could work, but it was a gamble. Was it worth it? The king mused for a few minutes before he gave his answer.
Cadeyrn, you sure this will work?
Positive. Clear as ice. He said adamantly.
Good, I leave you in charge of organizing this plan. You have three hours to tell the town to gather at the south gate. Take three units of spearmen and two of swordsmen. I’ll send my wife with you. Come and get me when you have completed the task. He sat.
Yes sire. I shall not fail you. He replied as he saluted one last time before turning on his heel and leaving.
It's not hte best, but please tell me what you think
A bit hurried perhaps...
but it's a very interesting development... :sweatdrop:
Must find out what happens to the Liguriae... :2thumbsup:
Ooh also my friend you can get a long way with a few EB screenshots.
Set up some custom battles, get a few angles of whatever you're talking about in a chapter, and plug in the pics with the text.
:shame:...I afraid I have to put this on hold for a while, maybe even forever. I am going to be on vacation the next two weeks and then I have two weeks of band camp... I will try to write in my notebook, but I can't guarantee anything. Thus said, I am going to put this on hold until I have returned from my...awayness... Until then, I return Ariovistus's Balloon :balloon2: as I don't deserve it until I have begun some serious work with AAR. When I return, I will hopefully have this back up and running. Thank you for understanding.
---Ghaust

I hope he's OK.
I have returned. I'm sure none care for this anymore but it has been irking on me as of late to finish this and continiue the story that continues to "Plauge" my mind. I realize that I have been gone for an extensive amount of time and that it has probably annoyed some of you for my lack of attention to the site and I deeply apologize. As it is 6:30 in the morning I can't post more but once I get home from School I intend to post a longish post concerning my excessive abscense. And to follow that....A long overdue update worth far more then the others. As I have gotten better as a writer over the year I have greatly improved my quality of work so this update should actually hold merit as compared to that really sad last update. Alas I must leave for school now so I swear to return once I return around 3:30 to4:00 Farewell
Ok everyone. School is over so I can now explain the reasoning for my long abcense. First of all I am deeply sorry for those who I left here without any warning. Secondly upon my return I plan to continue and start anew the story that I fell so much for armed with much improved writting skills far better than a freshmen in Highschool. So without further ado I present to you my story.
Around summer last year, I went on a vacation trip. I had originally planned to write some notes and the like concerning the story while on vacation but while on vacation I found myself incessently distracted by everything. Every time I intended to start writing I'd see a cool thing goin on the side of the road. Idk but it really hurt my devotion to this. In addition during the time before I began to feel rather run-down concerning the story because as I read the stories I realized my writing skills were not where I wished they were. I realized how infantile and uneducated my writing sounded so I began to feel unworthy to be doing the AAR in the first place. But in all honesty I did intend to say that I was going to return soon whence I got home from vacation but a small road bump occured in my trip. While driving home, my dads trucks transmission blew and in order for me to make it home in time me, my mom, and my little brother took an airplane back to florida so that I could make it to band camp (I'm a band nerd yes) Upon arrival home I had a night to sleep before I went to band camp and then the following morning spent every day for two weeks at my highschool marching from 8 to 8. With band camps conclusion I had long since forgotton my responsibilities and thus began to focus my self into school mode. Having no time for video games also contributed to my non activeness. Had I been able to get on the computer and play EB then I may have refreshed my desire to write my AAR, sadly I was still feeling run down and not worth the quality of some well known AARs. Well i guess this concludes my excuse, I know it is a bad one but the only one I have. Now I shall began writing my next update and post it upon finishing it later tonight. I am conisidering restarting the story because it sounds rather childish. If you can provide your input it would be nice so that I can maybe start anew. Thanks Ahead
--Honestly and truly back for good, Ghaust the Moor
Come on Guys I need your inpute before I can write anything. I already have what I'm gonna write down so I need you to tell me to post a re-start or a new update
I'll read the whole thing soon.
Yes! At least someone saw I was back
I'm glad to see that you're back, but don't worry about how you left the forums. Just pretend like that never happened and pick up from where you left off.

How about you get back to work on AtB? :D
Alright, I guess this is my responses so i'll post the next chapter in the People of the Water
Actually, I've decided to start anew. I feel if I do that the AAR will flow better. It will still be Ligurian based but this time starting in the events of RTW that way it starts off with more screenshots right away. Expect it tonight or tommorrow
