: I noticed when reading archers timeline that the end of
: the 20 years war and the independence of the province
: coincide.
Yeah, I'm going to have to appologize for that. The timeline info. is predominantly from GURPS. (I didn't know this at the time. My info came from a Hotline discussion that Forrest had hosted a while back, in the interest of letting people know what happens during Myth III, when it was first announced. I had no idea it came from GURPS…which I should have figured out. In any case, it got my to the Asylum! Yay! :-)
: We never here much about the 20 years war except when it
: started and that it ended 20 years later.
::nods:: Yeah, ingame. Lean towards that.
: Now perhaps this war was the Province fighting for
: freedom since this time was way before the Dark made
: it to the West.
Exactly, which is a natural conclusion.
: Since the cath Bruig was busy defending itself it would
: have been spending all the Taxes etc on warriors to
: defend themselves and ignoring the Province thus the
: Province wanted freedom.
Right, exactly. It also looks as if the Province was…rather the bitch, so to speak. They let the Cath Bruig be destroyed while they fought against them for their own, petty little independence. And what did it get them? Muirthemne was sacked. The Downs, a lush landscape of paridisial proportions, was rendered the most inhospitable place in the world. Every, single, glorious city of the Province was utterly demolished. They nearly lost the war…hell, we don't know if they won yet!
: This all seems kinda of obvious and I feel it was
: discussed a long time ago and agreed on.
Nah…:-) Heh, I made everyone reitterate everything that was discussed when I first came here, eventually everyone else has the right to do the same :-).
