I'm not sure if people stray into the other forums so I'm posting in all the islands.
Please post interesting items (spice them up) to go onto the Battlemaster Facebook page.
Cheers,

Lukon attack Assassins, their former ally. Could the realm of Assassins with rich infiltrators history withstand the mighty Lukon who has been showcasing their strength across Colonies for many years? Will Assassins gather enough allies and form the Northern Alliance that once crumbled due to politics? Will Minas Thalion able reclaim all Giblot rogue lands in time before Outer Tilog devoured all the fallen Giblot realm lands?

Nope, opinions are welcome. You'll see other similar posts on Facebook, feel free to post replies on Facebook to "set the record straight" (as others have done with other posts)
I thought I saw Azerax comment somewhere on Facebook Page on other island.
Quoted above in response to egamma post below.
Egamma, so this prove I know something that your character doesn't know IC eh? ::)
My reply is not a discussion, just some way of question marks to bring in curious players to Colonies Island. If my promotion is wrong, feel free to correct me.

I'm trying to follow the example set by the other moderators:

I think the best possible advertisement for Oritolon (or the other realms) would be for the Colonies to actually do something. Lukon/Assassin battle reports would be good.

I haven't posted any advertisements yet, just events and opinions, opinions are always more interesting. However, that doesn't stop you from posting advertisements directly to the FB page.

Not much IS going on there. Lukon stopped to TO some new regions, and then...
-
Oritolon manages to TakeOver Alowca city and complete the acquisition of whole Alowca duchy regions which previous gone rogue. A new Duke of Alowca city is elected; Duke Travis Grayham. He is Oritolon current General, Minister of War.
As a benefiary of fallen Giblot downfall, Minas Thalion is regaining some of the Giblot rogue regions. They have TakeOver Ammersfield.
Outer Tilog does not want to be left out, they have recently acquired Reckrandi, a rogue region.
Lukon too joins in the race to acquire rogue region. They TakeOver Nirlony.

Dark Citadel, stronghold and capital of Assassins went rogue today in extraordinary circumstances. It is still not certain how or why the people of Dark Citadel were able to throw off the yoke of their rulers but many attribute it to local anger and shame at recent woes to befall the Assassins. First the great walls of the Citadel, which hadn't been breached in living memory, were taken by the horde of Lukon. Swift on the heels of that humiliation Lukon and her allies proceeded to raze the fortifications almost entirely to the ground, to the immense displeasure of the local populace. With the Assassins now bereft of their sole major holding, their future looks bleak indeed.

thank you!

***BREAKING NEWS***
The Queen of Lukon today vowed that the realm of Assassins shall be rebuilt, with a former ruler of the Assassins Guild taking the helm of the soon to be revived country.
Queen Valakyrie stated that "It is a new era in the Colonies... One which shall see the realms of the world united as a mighty Empire...with equal voice for all Duchies. Each nation taking part in its rule."
The details of the Queens statements were not made clear during the proclamation, however rumor has it she intends to Ask the last remaining realms of the Colonies to join the rule of the new super nation...thus allowing Lukon to free its cities into smaller kingdoms while retaining security for each. It was also said that minor wars were still to be expected over food, Honor and other things...but the killing of entire realms would come to an end under the new Empire.
One must wonder if the last realms of the Colonies will unite peacefully... But after seeing the destruction of the Dark Citadel first hand it must be said... Lukon has a special way with diplomacy.
-
awesome!

In another breaking new, Outer Tilog realm declare war against Minas Thalion realm. Sir Rakaarox Nabarl, Chairthing Extravagant of Outer Tilog informs all the realms Rulers that the priests activity of MT realm have caused this war. They will arrest the so-called priests who hide themselves by 'really all they've done is painted over the word "rogue" with a realm name to try to provide themselves some protection'. The lack of meaningful response from these rogues with a name means that these further actions have now been taken. OT Ruler also mentions something about removing the priests skins, for their strange activity and rituals perhaps?

thanks!

***BREAKING NEWS***
Queen Valakyrie of Lukon met The Duke of the Dark Citadel, Targ'n Kybar, in a duel to the death this morning.
The duel challenge, issued by Duke Targ'n because of the destruction of his realm by the Lukon Hoard, was one for the history books. Had the Duke lost yet survived the match, he would have become a life long guardsman of the Queen of Lukon.
He did not survive the match however, and the Queen left the fighting circle with a grim yet pleased smile on her face.
When asked her feelings on the fight she had this to say:
"Honor in battle is life...Duke Targ'n is one of the most honorable warriors the world has known...there was no choice but to accept the fight and war against him as the Gods intended man to do. May Duke Targ'n feast and battle among the Gods forever along side my father"

thanks!

***BREAKING NEWS***
Talks continue to evolve in relation to the founding of the Colonial Empire. Four of the 5 nations of the Colonies have given preliminary nods of approval yet full consensus of all nations is requested by Queen Valakyrie of Lukon.
It is interesting to note that the talks between Lukon, who is the driving force behind the push for Empire, and Lukons long term allied nation of Oritolon have failed. Oritolon is fighting back against the Lukon sponsored plan despite its grand council having voted to join the Empire. It is rumored that the Prime Minister of Oritolon is making his way to the city of Portion now so that a duel to the death may take place between the two rulers. Readers will please note that this is not the first time the Queen of Lukon has been drawn in by those seeking honorable individual battle.
Meanwhile the armies of Lukon mass on its Southern boarder in preparation of war...war against the only two realms of the Colonies that have stood beside each other sense the first voyages to the Island began.
For those nobles seeking a place to begin or to begin again... this conflict looks to be the start of a new era in the Colonies.

Lukon 12K CS force attack Oritolon 10K CS in Oritolon's Alebad city recently. With the city wall advantage and last minute reinforcement, Oritolon prevailed in the first big battle. Oritolon and Lukon are former long time Federation allies.
This Federation breakup happened after numerous Empire overtures are rejected by Oritolon, who fearing they will lose their original realm identity. If Oritolon manages to hold off Lukon who is by the far, the strongest realm on Colonies, other realms will not be so keen to join the Empire, sponsored by Lukon. Only time will tell as second big battle about to happen.
On another news, the invincible Ares, Lukon greatest General and former Ruler unit can only be decimated by 2.3K charge from Oritolon's Actrial's unit. Could it be Ares, the God of War finally found his true opponent?

After a few days staring match between Lukon army in Vir el Mari Height region and Oritolon army in Alebad city.
Ares, the God of War of Lukon leads Lukon army to takeover Oritolon region of Windaria. Looting, killing, raping and burning reports have been received daily. It is a master strategy to lure Oritolon army away from Alebad city. Will Oritolon army leave their Alebad city to stop the TakeOver which is 2 regions away?
-
thanks!

A border signpost reads the following below as Oritolon army pass to Padaost townsland.
"A foot deep line of ash and bone mark the borders of Lukon broken only by a large stone pillar and plaque:
Only Battle brings Honor. The ashes of Fallen Warriors ring this realm. Dare not cross if your Honor lacks."
Determined to bring the fight to Lukon, Oritolon strikes them where they least expected it: Padaost townsland. This town has Motte and Bailey(2) for fortification wall. Army of Oritolon Vice Marshal Eadwulf Osha leads 4K CS Oritolon attackers up against 1.6K CS Lukon Defenders. The Padaost battles are in Oritolon favor for two days running. Seeing the threat on its south, Lukon City Duchess Mephista Beldragos hastily raised militia in Lukon city, its city namesake. After all, which realm can afford to lose its own namesake city to the enemy.

thanks!

It is a mismatch of all time. Remember the legend, David versus Goliath. For once, David does not stand a chance against Goliath: Minas Thalion(David) versus Outer Tilog(Goliath).
After a few staring matches and much delays. A huge battle occurs in Drenga, the last Minas Thalion region. Could Minas Thalion do what David done against Goliath?
520 men of Outer Tilog marched against 360 men of Minas Thalion. Outer Tilog army, The Band of Ghouls, Fiends and Abominations (Outer Tilog) sponsored by Sir Garm Tanngrisnir Crownguard, Minister of Offense of Outer Tilog, Duke of Hilly Holes, Baron of Hilly Holes, were led into battle by Marshal Demure Marauder. It is a lopsided battle indeed as for once Minas Thalion(David) unable to slay Outer Tilog(Goliath).
On another news, Lukon Judge Arch Priest Lucivar SaDiablo is extremely annoyed with Oritolon Judge Grand Justiciar May Ketchum. He vents his dissatisfaction with his brother non-release from Oritolon prison. Only time will tell if the recent outbursts on Judges channel will escalate to much bigger things. Maybe we will need to borrow Outer Tilog torture tools as a benchmark. How much is the Outer Tilog tools rental fee? 1000 gold?

thanks!

Roleplay from Lucivar SaDiablo (9 hours, 18 minutes ago)
Message sent to the Judges of Colonies (3 recipients)
Lucivar stood atop the tallest hill in Lukon standing next to the hated one known as the Priest Silks. She had a beauty to her but her foulness would no longer taint the land of Lukon.
He stared proudly at his invention, something he commissioned just for a Priest of Shadowism. Lucivar looks at Silks and says "For your crimes and actions against Lukon, you are sentenced to death. Your death will not be a quick death as I have devised something just for your type. You will be the first and last to fall to this device as each execution I do must be unique."
Those that would watch would see Silks strapped to a table around a rather large constructions of wood, stone, and metal. There were various weights and pulleys and a cylinder object that dominated the device. Around the cage, there are men standing next to fires with hot boiling pit and the Dungeon Master standing at the controls of the device and the cage itself sits on a floor of wood.
Lucivar nods to his dungeon master and says "Let the execution commence, start the Shadow Games!' He watches as the device starts to move and after a few moments the cylinder stops and cast as shadow over the right hand of Silks. He smiles as a large stone comes crashing down and mashes the hand into a pancake. Saying "Simple is it not dear Silks, your death is by Shadows"
With a nod of his head, the cylinder moves around randomly till it stops at the left foot of Silks and all is heard is a whoosh and her foot falls to the ground. Lucivar says "Pitch, seal that wound, she does not die till the end"
The device continues to work slowly smashing, crushing, cutting, slicing, and dicing Silks till nothing remains but a battered torso and her head. At this point the men around the device walk to Silks and proceed to stab meat hooks through her shoulders. The dungeon master hits the last button and the remaining straps come off Silks and she raises into the air.
Lucivar walks up to her and without any remorse silts her throat with his knife then cuts open the spots where her arms and legs used to be. He stands in front of her till all her blood has dripped out. Satisfied, he turns his back and steps back on to the ground. With a nod, the final act for Silks occurs as the wooden floor crumbles and the device and Silks fall deep into the ground. The men that had handled the boiling pitch quickly move forward and begin to topple the pitch over. The darkness descends and the hill is alight with fire and brightness and all Lucivar can think is, justice as Silks can no longer find the shadows....

Colonies island have seen a massive shake up in recent days. A lot of new realms are seceded, and together they make up the memberships of Colonial Senate guild as the realms various leaders take the island to a new future unknown. 9 realms Rulers hold the rein of the Elder members of the guild as they attempt to shape the new history phase in the island. They are Aren, Assassins, Inner Tilog, Lukon, Oritolon, Outer Tilog, Portion, The Electorate of Minas Thalion and Wetham.
The peace and tranquility Colonies island enjoys for quite sometime as all the realms nobles settle down to an otherwise normal day. Normal days consist of discussing island realmwide agreements. Assassins realm proposes an islandwide prisoners and infiltrators agreement calls "Pre-Colonial Empire Judicial Agreement". The agreement is agreed by only 3 realms however, they are Aren, Assassins and Oritolon.
About 8 days ago, Wetham realm lowered down its Diplomatic Relations with all the realms on Colonies to Neutral. Its new Ruler, King Sadi SaDiablo who is also General of Wetham has spoken in Rulers channel about taking back the disputed region of Asker which is seceded together to form part of Wetham realm lands previously. Due to Asker Region Lord changing his allegiance to Portion realm, King Sadi has requested Asker region to be given back numerous time. His request was ignored by Portion realm Queen Raven Leather.
The news start to tickle in from all the scribes around the island. Wetham has declared War against Lukon realm, supposely to pre-empt the latter realm possible aid to Portion realm. Lukon realm Ruler, Queen Mephista Beldragos appears bemused that Lukon realm is being declared war against. The rest of the realms are busy discussing among themselves whether the island wide Colonial Senate guild will be disssolve in the event of wars.
On another note. In an attempt to cheer up the Colonial Senate guild members in face of upcoming wars, Sideways Archpriest Haroldin Enstance of Inner Tilog realm offers 1000 gold offer to any willing noble from other realms to join his realm. Sir Iuz Vidar Crownguard who is current Viscount of Ammersfield region tried unsuccessfully to pick Sideways Archpriest on his offer. But the Sideways Archpriest is apparently amused because Ammersfield region is already belonging to Inner Tilog realm. the Sideways Archpriest witty retorts is "Nice try, oozesleaze. You got a title. Which cannot be compared to gold. Except gold is better, but that is irrelevant."

The Southern Compact and Outer Tilog have agreed a ceasefire so that a tournament of lance and sword can be held in Alebad. This celebration of Colonial nobility is prompted by uncertain portents from the heavens and is being organised by Sir Cathal Dubhaine, Lord Elector of Minas Thalion.
-
The Alebad tournament was a great success with 24 nobles attending the 9 days of festivities.
In the melee Medea from Oritolon beat Miskel from Outer Tilog.
In the joust Miskel from Outer Tilog beat Ghost from Minas Thalion.

After much time, I am hereby taking up Announcement duties for not only Facebook (still setting up connection), but also Twitter. So...anyone have something to announce?
-
In a strange twist of fate, Oritolon Swordfighting champion from Alebad tournament, Medea ended up dead in a duel to death with another swordmaster Goriad II in Oritolon. Medea was rewarded as a region lord but her strange death circumstance has been talked to be due to the desert. Goriad II later goes on and become the new Oritolon Swordfighting champion in the next tournament.
On another news, in order to reenergize the realm to move forward, Aren previous Ruler Khatun Lady Brisa has stepped down. Aren new Ruler Khan Jabari is elected to replace her.
Meanwhile Colonial Senate guild has been inundated with discussions about the war between Minas Thalion and Wetham. Many realms nobles try to offer suggestions to defuse the conflict while there are some who wish to see the war being fought on even ground. New issue arises with Minas Thalion(MT) emulating Outer Tilog tradition of "eating" militia on MT way to attack Wetham lands. It remains to be seen how the war and new issue will pan out. Also whether Colonial Senate will implement new policy and become the new powerhouse of its own or break down.

This has gotten rather dormant. Any news to be posted?
-
The north is awash in undead bearing the sigil of Outer Tilog.
-
Every generous region lord has a wall level 1 or 2 standing at their regions after recent sacrifice at Plenty of Pyre.

Nothing going on that I’m aware of...
