New Years Resolution Contest

I have been a lonely Veteran in the ranks of regular Generals, and even one or two Battle Hardened Generals.. But they still can't do what I can. My resolution is to find a brother in arms, someone who can truly be by my side. Although I appreciate the fact that the BHG's can keep up with me, even travel to distant lands just as fast as I, it still frustrates me that I end up doing all of the work anyway while they just sit around. Just let me find someone that can hold up their end at my side, not these recruit-shielding glory-hogs. *sigh*

In the year of the BB's 2013, Stan Settler looked around and saw no females. He knows of a man doing secluded experiments, and thought maybe that is why we have no females. He went to his neighbers, and told them of his plan. Mcgegors, you have horses, Fanigans you have steel swords, me and my clan have crosbows. If we can call up some recruits from the local farms, and give them brad an brew we could take the Dark Castle. So gather your clans. Gather you weapons. We will take the castle, kill the witch of the swamp, and find the man doing the experiments. We will find the females or die trying! So I and my clan say, areyou all with me!

General Grievous has heard enough about his defeat by the Jedi. After fleeing to a remote island and building a new empire, Grievous has just conquered the natives there. Starting in 2013, a long long time ago, he is set to rebuild his army of droids using titanium. Their laser weapons, however, will require a rare resource only found by exploring the deep galatic sectors. Lastly, to restore his own fighting finesse, he will need to upgrade his steel sword to a light sabre. Rumors in the tavern tells of a merchant who sells a red crystal that powers light sabres. But this merchant only accepts blue crystalite gems. So the search begins...

This year, my settlers will help me recruit a veteran general so that I can make it to level 40.

My goal is to become my guild's greatest asset and a good director to my little island of people. :0)

This year my settlers have banded together to ask for less crowded living conditions and more opportunities for work. They have also requested that I not fulfill their requests for less crowded living conditions by sending poorly trained townsfolk off on "adventures" where they are never heard from again. Finally, they have resolved to spend more time for themselves and less time serving my needs.. and to that end they have asked for decorative fountains in which to frolic.

NY Resolution is to quit TSO, having to spend gems makes it harder to do so.

It was late in the evening on New Years eve as The Mayor finally finished the last of his daily tasks. He looked over the fields of wheat that stretched out in front of the Mayoral Mansion and began to mull over the events of the past year. The new settlement was started with much anticipation, minimal expectation, and a small but dedicated group of settlers. From these humble beginnings The Mayor had watched his settlement grow to nearly 600 people. The basic industries of stone and pinewood production were completed quickly and these were eventually side by side with: marble, hardwood, coal, Iron and just recently Steel production. (a much harder and more durable metal then the mayor had even dreamed of) They had even managed to find a bit of gold ore in the hills in the south portion of the isle. They had settled here thinking the Island deserted but had soon discovered that was not the case. Although no organized civilization had yet claimed this land, there were several camps of bandits hidden about in challenging locales. The first couple of these had been easily overcome as the Recruits, Bowmen, and Militia made short work of the easy, disorganized camps. However, upon the explorers reaching the far eastern shore of their island, it was noted that the strength of these newly found bandit camps of the east were much improved. Packs of Guard Dogs roamed the camp perimeter and groups of Thugs and Rough-Necks encircled large campfires. These foes would challenge the newly created forces of Cavalry and Soldiers that were now training in the barracks. One explorer even returned with tales of a giant half-man/half-tree seen in the center of an enormous camp of bandits in the mountain regions of the north east corner of the isle. This information troubled The Mayor and he knew that many battles lay ahead and much blood would be spilled in the effort to liberate this island and truly claim this land solely and completely for his people. He steeled himself for the necessary conflicts yet to come in the new year and resolved that nothing would keep him from ushering in the era of complete ownership of this island and unwavering prosperity for his people.
