Re: Castleland Stories Discussion and News Thread

I agree, I love the name and I think Gonn should remain a prisoner for a while. I went ahead and took the liberty of introducing a new character, who appears to be helping Gonn escape, but my plans involve a failed attempt which will help show some things about Gonn and about the Sameri. I hope tha...

Re: Castleland Stories Discussion and News Thread

I agree with A_V, in that I think Gonn should remain prisoner for a while. Here are some other possible names: #1 CGS: The Sameri War #2 CGS: War of Imperial Sameri Expansion #3 CGS: Wars of Imperial Expansion #4 CGS: The Emperor's War #5 CGS: The Battle for Castleland I was also thinking, that perh...

Re: Castleland Stories Discussion and News Thread

"Oh, when Irish eyes are happy, shore is like the world is bright and gay!" Hihi :mrgreen: If you'll edit it out of your posts, I'll edit it out of mine, to avoid any confusion. I´ll do that. A_V I heard that Irish, I think drinking, song in some movie about Ireland sometime. I don't know...

Re: Castleland Stories Discussion and News Thread

I agree, they did always escape, now that I look back. Um, I'm not trying to be a grammar fascist, or anything, but I think you mean "Sameri." It's kinda ironic though, since, when I first invented the country, years ago, I did in fact spell it "Samuri." I can't remember my reas...

Re: Castleland Stories Discussion and News Thread

Considering our new character, Gonn, I think it would be cool if he didn't escape until the Samuri armada reaches shore, or some island. Maybe he could try, but then fail. In the past during our storytelling, whenever a character was casptured, they would always escape. I think that this time it wo...

Re: my family owns an english castle 0_o

Re: Castleland Stories Discussion and News Thread

Nice maps, Zeppelin! I have a question about the Khans name in the second story. One place, he is called Yokoma Chan yin Sang, and Sosukay (Khan) another place. I used both names in my latest adition to the story. Im sort of thinking of, that the name he was born with could be the Yokoma Chan thing...

Re: my family owns an english castle 0_o

As to 50 gnerations, I think what my father found was that it was fairly close...I think it goes like this: his daughter married one of my close relatives. It gets confusing, so I'll have to study some more. I'm afraid you're missing the point, during 50 generations, there would have to be 50 peopl...

Re: my family owns an english castle 0_o

Sorry, I really wasn't bragging, I just thought it was interesting. :) I'll even admit this: lots of Europeans are related to Charlemagne. It's not wholly uncommon. That's one reason why many presidents are related to him; Charlemagne is almost like the Adam of Europe. See, I just said it's not anyt...

@Crushmaster: Actually, Jesse James is awesome to have as a relative. He's kinda become a folk hero.

Re: my family owns an english castle 0_o

I just found out that Charlemagne is my great x35 grandfather! If you're a direct descendant from Charmemagne, then you're related to pert near every United States president that ever lived. Cool. :) Actually, I want to correct myself: great x50 grandfather. x35 was some other royalish relative. Ye...

Re: Noble Order of the Knights of Prasden

Well, I just finished reading the entire thing. There were very few grammer errors; you did a pretty good job. You're getting better, so keep it up! :D Nice, I like where this is going. You also waste no time in describing insignificant things that occur during the heroes' travels, which makes for ...

Re: my family owns an english castle 0_o

I just found out that Charlemagne is my great x35 grandfather! My dad was able to trace my paternal family back to 49 A.D . This my most exciting ancestory find ever. :) I am also related to Princess Margaret of Scotland. No, I'm not bragging, I'm just excited. :D EDIT: I just found out about Prince...

Exactly what I think. This is by far the best design of a brick-built horse that I have ever seen. :) Keep it up, TT! You are really skilled.
