Current News New Arch Priest 28th October 2006 Today the nobles of Redspan once again cast vote on who should become the next Arch Priest. Our former Arch Priest AJ, disappeared after locking himself accidentally in the cupboard after his brother Mother had tried to get him to test his new cooking. This now means that the keys to Da Grill are now handed over to Ralph The Third. Lets hope Ralph can keep our realm safe and uphold Da Law. --Article written by Tony Peace In The South 24th October 2006 News has come through that the war between ASI and Abington has come to an end. This means that Abington has relinquished their claim on the islands. With this new it also means that Redspan gets Byblack and Sullenport back. This is really good news for Redspan and her allies as it brings peace to the south. Now Abington have only to make peace with CE and MI before total peace is restored. --Article written by Tony Tara Beaten in Craigmore 17th October 2006 As the sun set Carelian and Taran forces lined up in Craigmore. The forces according to the rumours were evenly matched. With the Carelian forces coming out on top, but losing the Hero Hylda. Tara has suffered a major set back in her control of the region which she gained from the war between her and Carelia. Many Nobles were wounded and some seriously, such as the Manxy, Executioner of Tara. Is this another war which will not end? --Article written by Tony Peace At last 17th October 2006 Peace has descended upon the realm of Redspan, first peace with Tara, the two realms have finally decided to end their hostilities and both are profiting from the trade of food. Secondly, Redspan has accepted the proposal of a cease-fire with the Cagilan Empire. This is welcome news as Redspan is tired of war as of now, we need to rebuild our strength and get our population up again. --Article written by Tony Tourney Anounced...Weding Bells Ringing 17th October 2006 A tourney was announced a few days ago to be held in Minas Ithil to celebrate the marriage of two of their nobles. This is a chance for everyone to go and enjoy the free beer and food available and the chance to show off their skills. Also Minas Ithil are not going to be crusading again for at least a week, which gives our Allies Abington a much longer time to prepare their defences for the next colony take over which is more than likely to happen. --Article written by Tony Talerium Can't fight a Battle to Save their Lives...Literally 12th October 2006 Scribes rushed into Stargard this morning bringing reports of Talerium troops trying to get past the guards at Lurgrod and Meldeen. At both places the Talerium troops were defeated and sent packign on their way home. We have worked out that on and even engagement the Redspan forces will come out on top. We have seen this many times, but who ever plays fair in war? To the west of Redspan Tara was seen moving into Taree. Why? Isn't there war over? If they attack will this not incur the wrath of CE and ASI, as per the treaty? We will report more once news has come through. --Article written by Tony Free Beer! 10th Otober 2006 Philippe, last night paid his bill. But being so drunk and in the bad light signed a piece of paper held out by Duke Shamus. This was for a family investment into the Dukes city. It wasn't until Philippe's bank balance came through that he realised what he had done. Oh well... the beers are on Philippe from now on. --Article written by Tony Idiotic Monsters 10th October 2006 This morning after a good night sleep, the call to arms came down from the guards on top of the walls of Stargard. When we got there, we fell about laughing. 11 Monsters had started advancing across the killing ground of the city wall. Under a hail of Arrows, Philippe decided to go and finish them off. He did so very quickly. We here cannot understand what goes through the minds of these pea-brained behemoths. --Article written by Tony Catch Up Time 9th October 2006 That was an interesting weekend. Mayandur still in his drunken state, two battles in Lurgrod, a new King, an old High Marshal and a new banker. What more could we ask for? Anyway to the detail. Mayandur was still unable to wake for his hard night of partying several days ago. This meant that a new king had to be found, The candidates lined up and there was a heated debate between the General and the Judge. The kind of debate Redspan loves! With the polls open the people of Redspan Voted. The result, yours truelly was elected the next King of Redspan. Now with being king I could not have the General position as well, this went to Dielo, A man who has shown he can lead the armies of Redspan well, and Namus is the new banker, although he said he will only be temporary until Eilt wakes up as well from his hangover. Now the battle part.....the bit that Redspan loves. The forces of CE/Fal/MI/Tal had gathered in Sullenport. The forces of Redspan lined up agianst them (unknowingly) were practicing in Lurgrod at the time. When the time for the forces in Sullenport to move out the rains had come in and the scribes refused to go out...especially when one came in with nothing on his paper as the ink had all run off it. This lead to a small contingent of CE/Tal forces fighting the Redspan force and being destroyed. The rest of the CE/Tal/Fal/MI army then moved into Lurgrod and unfortunately there was a battle. 24000cs lined up against just 7000cs of Redspan Courage. And unfortunate battle but one that tested the mettle of Redspan. Lets hope that this is a one off and that only peace will be here from now on. --Article written by Tony Something Big Is Brewing 5th October 2006 Sharpe Eyed scouts from the Redspan units that are on tactical maneuvers drill have spotted larges amounts of Falasan, Minas Ithil and Cagilan Empire soldiers gathering around the city of Sullenport. This looks like there is a battle looming and we all know where they are intended to go. Thats right, straight down through Lurgrod and into Abington. More than likely to start a CTO of Wayburg. The small Army of Stargard which is currently in Lurgrod doing repairs and drills in the region will, stand on the side and watch as friends from both sides batter seven different types of stuffing out of each other. The Army of Stargard has been in battle again in Ambermel. This time fighting the offspring of the monsters vanquished the day before. The battle went really well with the archers doing the mainstay of the work while the infantry stood an watched. Good work People! --Article written by Tony Army Of Stargard In Action In Ambermel 3rd October 2006 The Army of Stargard was once again in action in Ambermel, saving the people of Ambermell from the monster incursion. The army had made the detour after setting off from Stargard on maneuvers to get some training and movement discipline. The training and discipline that they have been working on in recent weeks paid off as the Monsters felt the full wrath of the soldiers hungry for blood and action. The casualties were light on the Redspan side and the victorious troops are now continuing on their training. --Article written by Tony New Look to The Revealer 3rd October 2006 Welcome, everyone to the new and improved Redspan Revealer.
