Holy....... Woah. Can't wait till that link is up for us to all enjoy. To think, while you were writing the features, I was writing a story about the game. As I discover more about the game when the nect version comes out, chances are they'll be implemented into my story. Good job, I know the team has been working for a while, and thanks for such a great mod.

This is incredible. Far more than I could have dreamed of. Looks like I'll have to take a week off of work when this is released -- I'm still stunned at all the amazing features that are going to be in this release to take advantage of the brilliant storylines. So many things to do ... all with an incredible background rich in lore and storytelling.

This smiley represents my expression right now:

Looking at what seems to be imminent I do have to state that I am thrown back to childhood (30 years ago), when Santa Claus was already strafing around in the neighbourhood . However as soon the moment, I downloaded this baby has arrived, I am convinced to rest disconnected from society and looking at the screen, exactly the way it was said above 

However, let me give you a thank you up front , to all the people involved in this - a thank you for this gift. For you, saxondragon, I start feeling in debt as the might not be enough "thank you" to pay it off, too much of contribution to my general gaming experience from your side

THANK YOU!

This is a good idea, I think that Modrealms may be a great choice for this.  What do you think?

The size of the download will exclude many other free sites from hosting the compressed file.  May I ask how you downloaded V1.21 if you could not get to the mbrepository?

Best,

Saxondragon

How come it's always recruits that behave like that?

Holy shit. Please tell me this is releasing before my exams start 

You're not alone.

What do you mean, Saxondragon, by reports of villages, castles and towns, am I right in assuming you get details of wealth and tax income and things of the sort?
