I like what has been done with the template here, but the only link to this page is under Atamara#History. It would be nice if we could get a more expansive wiki record of this conflict to go along with the 70+ page forum thread about this war! --Revan (talk) 18:24, 14 August 2012 (CEST)

Perspectives

I think we need an League view and non-league view for every part of this webpage.

League = CE and allies

For instance, it was worked well in the background section, but the war section is also biased by the north. One particular section I note is the part about Darka sacking Coria's cities. My character would of course say that Merlin was betrayed when convinced he was to come to Eston to discuss peace treaty terms when a Darkan army appeared from behind and sacked the capital while he couldn't raise militia to defend it.

Er, it happened, so I don't see how it could be biased to say it happened. It was also a fairly noteworthy event. I tried to write a factual narrative to the extent that I could, so I rather hope that it doesn't seem biased. If you want to add a clarification to the passage about how the Duke was not in the city be my guest, though honestly that's probably more detail than is needed for such a high level summary. If you really want to tell your side of the story in detail, my suggestion to you is to create a sub-page for a Corian history of the war. Far too much happened in the two years of the war to cover every event in the detail it deserves in a handful of paragraphs, yet such a summary is needed to at least give people a basic outline of the war. Realm-specific sub-pages could allow for much greater detail. Also, please add any highlights that I may have neglected to add to the summary. There may be some events that I either forgot or wasn't involved in that are worthy of including, but please limit the level of detail. Link to a sub-page if there's something you really want to elaborate on. Geronus (talk) 01:16, 19 January 2013 (CET)
