Magnus Tindal is good people. Why he isn't a knight is a mystery to me. Must be a live boy or a dead girl in that guy's past.

You have a lot of people in Aethelmark that have the chops to be natural leaders, but it seems like you do not have a process for putting them in positions of leadership.

Just for those of you that didn't make it, the Tuchux and Black Talon basicly owned everyone. Even when the powers that be shuffled people around so the side the 'chux was on had 15 percent less people, thay still crushed everyone all day. Me and mine included.

Good fights.
