There is no denying that the Fallen Knights of Lotharingia had their collective asses handed to them when they attempted to bully their way into Limbourg to punish the Archduke of Maelonbourg and the Wenigzustand for meddling in this long-abused and neglected realm. Close to thirty-thousand soldiers representing all four of the Lodges marched into … Continue reading The Second Battle of Käsestadt: The Greatest Bloodbath in a Generation

The Fall of Käsestadt
The collapse of Limbourg as a functioning state wasn't something that happened quickly. The fall of the old capital of Käsestadt was the final stage and only occurred twelve or so years ago.

A Closer Look at Forkanza: Lombardia
The recent news out of Forkanza has a good many scholars scratching their heads in bewilderment.

In only three months two city-states have fallen to … Continue reading A Closer Look at Forkanza: Lombardia
Slothjemian Spelljammers; Dowarby-Class Scout Ship
The smallest and by far the most maneuverable of the Slothjemian native-built spelljammers is the nimble and quick Dowarby-class. Unable to carry any significant weaponry the 15-ton vessels are almost entirely all sail when viewed from a distance. They have a collapsible "dragon-wing" style ventral sail that hangs straight down from the keel, two pectoral … Continue reading Slothjemian Spelljammers; Dowarby-Class Scout Ship
