    Default Re: MP TW Book

    Here is some info on RTK (Its not upto date though). Here is link to the thread CubKing https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...istory-Project

    Upon my entrance into the RTK I was given no such water, but do remember spitting some out in disgust at a few posts placed in our forums by members of other clans who felt the need to hold a grudge where one was not necessary. Eh well. There's definitely something to be said about winning and losing with good nature, and some people just will never find that...being the virtue that it is. I suppose thats why some say silence is golden.

    ......................................

    I hope this project comes to a head at some point. It would be interesting to read the history before I came into the TW scene...somewhere around May of 2002 or so iirc.

    .......................................

    Elrich would be much better at many of these questions, but I will endeavor to help as best I can.

    ***CLAN QUESTIONNAIRE***

    Name of your clan: Round Table Knights (RTK)

    Founded (date): unsure, early 2002 I believe

    Website (adress): http://www.clanroundtable.homestead.com/fp.html

    ***************

    Leadership: (democracy, counsil, clanleader, other): Hierarchy or sorts.

    We have a King - Elrich
    Below him a few Realm Advisors - Agravain and Lional
    Then Head Knight - Antoine
    Knights - Pellinore, Dagonet, Kay, Galahad, and myself
    Head Knights Apprentice - Ghazan
    Knights Apprentice - Charlemagne (whom is also Emissary), Leonidas, Mercurius, Saladin, Tor
    Head Squire - Dinas
    Squires - Constantine, Flintoff
    About Gawain...he is an RTK, definitely. But his status is a bit hazy atm, so I am not sure exactly where to place him. His most recent status was Knight, but he sort of unfortunately got lost in the shuffle from transition to RTW from MTW. But he is still active, and still a valued member of the clan.

    We also have a recruit system known as the Pages - whom are not really full RTK members, but you must first be a Page before you can become an RTK


    Clanleader Counsil members (current): Listed in Hierarchy



    ***************

    Clanmembers (active): I will list when they joined as when their RTK names were registered, which is really the only way I can do it as one person.

    Name: Elrich
    When joined: March 12, 2002
    Rank or special task(s): King. Takes care of the Realm pretty much
    Previous clan(s): Dreads, unsure before then. He can come fill in this section
    Previous name(s):
    More info about this member: He's an autocrat. j/k Good guy. Met him in real life. Can't hold his whiskey. Very good at managing a large and diverse group of people. Not afraid to speak his mind.

    Name: Agravain
    When joined: February 4, 2004
    Rank or special task(s): Realm Advisor
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s): Page Pox (iirc)
    More info about this member: IMO one of the well respected members of the TW community. He has been involved in organizing many tournaments, and was definitely one of RTKs best Emissaries before moving on to bigger and better quarters in the castle.


    Name: Lional
    When joined: December 27, 2002
    Rank or special task(s): Realm Advisor
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s): Cheetah, from right here at the ORG
    More info about this member: Somewhat soft spoken, but extremely formidable opponent. I don't believe there is a single member of RTK past or present that hasn't learned something from him. He is very good at analyzing replays, and creating successful strategies.

    Name: Antoine
    When joined: February 17, 2004
    Rank or special task(s): Head Knight, Master At Arms
    Previous clan(s): SPQR
    Previous name(s): SPQR_BlackFlag
    More info about this member: French...through no fault of his own. He may not always be able to speak his mind so all can understand him, but many times its not even necessary. By the time he gets the words out, he's already done the work himself. Always fun to listen to on Teamspeak or Ventrillo. Downright scary with a Pontic army.

    Name: Pellinore
    When joined: November 18, 2004
    Rank or special task(s): Knight
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s): Thern
    More info about this member: Pellinore has always seemed rather quiet to me. Maybe this isn't so, but it could be that he is very quiet about his accomplishments. Always a good ally to have on your side. I usually seem to be on the other end of the battle line from him, yet some of his units always seem to find their way behind some of my enemies' units before I have a chance to attack them myself.


    ***************

    Inactive and previous clanmembers

    Name: Rodney
    When joined: Another founding member, same time as Elrich
    Rank or special task(s): Realm Advisor
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s):
    Joined another clan?: Retired
    More about this member:

    Name: Gareth
    When joined: wayyyy back
    Rank or special task(s): Realm Advisor
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s):
    Joined another clan?: erm, same as Hasty. So basically chose Retirement
    More about this member: He has kids about my age, and its wrong to talk ill about your elders, so.... j/k. Great guy, very good and reliable ally. He would have a tendency to move slow, but that didn't mean once he moved it wouldn't be decisive. Somewhat softspoken in the lobby and in game, but man have I seen some posts from him....mostly about myself. Maybe, I have a bad memory.

    Name: Goedfrey
    When joined: Help me out here Hasty
    Rank or special task(s): Knight
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s):
    Joined another clan?: eh, sorta. UglyandHasty now, so not really a clan.
    More about this member: Goed had a wonderful temper. He was always one of my favorite people to side with. Would occasionally, and rather quietly, take over a game and be the deciding factor, before the other side even knew it. Like Elrich, he was never afraid to speak his mind. Those French Canadians....

    Name: Lamorak
    When joined: stupid ezboard hack...can't find out. will endeavor to do so
    Rank or special task(s): Knight
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s):
    Joined another clan?: Retired
    More about this member: One of our best ever imo. Lam was great at sending help to his teammates while still being able to take on, and even take out his opponents army with depleted numbers. Very quick and decisive. As many of you may also know, he was very good with IT concerns. One of the reasons he became Assistant to Kraellin here at the ORG.

    Name: Paul
    When joined: unsure, before me
    Rank or special task(s): Head Knight
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s):
    Joined another clan?: Retired
    More about this member: Paul may be among our most famous members. His skill was practically unparalleled in the ranks of RTKs, possibly matched by only Palamedes and Lional. I beat him a lot in the desert though. Many may remember him from the Kocmoc 1v1 tournament. He beat everyone he 'faced', but was knocked out on a technicality...he missed his match because Paul and GMT didn't really get along. He was one of the major factors in my decision to pursue joining RTK, and was the one who trained me.

    Name: Palamedes
    When joined: December 1, 2003
    Rank or special task(s): Realm Advisor
    Previous clan(s):
    Previous name(s): Ueaititi (no one but Pala himself will ever spell that right)
    Joined another clan?: Actually, founded another clan, which you can find here.
    More about this member: I thought at first Pala was a spy, because his skill developed so quickly. He was very inquisitive from the beginning, but quickly went from asking questions to answering them. His play style in MTW was extremely hard to imitate, and I suspect not many people would have the skill to do so. Part of the major push of the RTK towards competitive tourney play, he elevated our ability as a clan to be able to take on and defeat even the most skilled and experienced teams. He left RTK on the best of terms, and will always be an asset to our clan. aww....

    Thats all I can take for the moment. Will update this sometime soon.

    On the other hand, why make a book? Why not set up a wiki and get the infos done there?
    It would be able to continue and add more and new information with time.

    It would also be an easy way to get more people involved.

    So I can get everything in print so everyone could have a chance to get a copy for their personal records then, Kocmoc.

    Well I'll probably be accused of being a giant nerd, but this sounds to me like a brilliant idea. Current players may snigger at those who take the game so seriously, but as the years go on, I believe we will all begin to realise that the lolz we have in TW were no lesser than the lolz we have in RL.


    You seem to have a surplus of STW1/MTW1 contributors here, Warman, but where are the Romans?? O.o RTW MP was a brilliant community; indeed it still thrives today, and has pretty much outlived MTW2 and ETW. I would be happy to help you with compiling a history of RTW from 2006-2008, and I think I can find at least one or two people who were around in the early days of 2004-2005 as well.

    As for the post-2008 RTW community, I know a whole load of people who would love to talk about that. :)
    Clan GERUDO has returned!
    May the legend live on forever.
