Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.
A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

Re: Political compass
Yeah, the Political Leanings of Members sticky. Although I don't know how often the political compass map in the OP (for the stickied thread) is updated.
Re: Political compass
It is total BS anyway. I ended up being a authoritarian with a tiny right leaning, but just about in the middle. It is designed to make people with certain beliefs look like Hitler, and others like Gandhi. It rated my flaming leftist aunt who believes in the almighty power of the allpowerful federal government as an authoritarian with a huge right leaning. It just doesn't work, and I doubt that any stupid quiz can accurately map everyones beliefs, esp when there are people like me with beliefs across the board. And the way they word questions often leaves only one rational answer for both conservatives and liberals.
EDIT:
I took it again, this time answering two of the questions I thought ambiguous in a different way, and now I got this:
Does anyone who knows me seriously think that is accurate?

Sounds about right. Though I was probably a bit more to the right years ago.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

About where I usually end up. EDIT: Actually lol I'm slightly down and to the left of where I am on the Political Compass sticky. Didn't think I'd move in that direction.

Last time we did this I put together a chart plotting the position of everyone... I'll do it again, and post one once we have a few more results - note if you want to be included, please give me your numbers, don't just post an image- it's a lot easier for me than trying to dig out a number from a small chart.

Some of the questions did seem a little stupid though...
In remembrance of our great Admin Tosa Inu, A tireless worker with the patience of a saint. As long as I live I will not forget you. Thank you for everything!

1 point more authoritarian and 1.3 points more lefty than the last time I took this test. I think the recession has soured my view of humanity a little bit.

Re: Political compass
Well my views have changed on a few things, but as you mention this test is so basic, it can't really get to the nuanced changes in views I have. Anyway, not like I have become right wing.. :x
Sorry about that, when you start veering towards the dark side, we get giggly and start poking.Ashamed? I feel violated!

Don't tell me you're turning into Margaret Thatcher on us.Well my views have changed on a few things, but as you mention this test is so basic, it can't really get to the nuanced changes in views I have.

Only surprise is that you were still ON the chart.
