Nope. We're supposed to mail that pdf. file that Gnoll Mage made to Nival. I think we should add the stronghold to this document and send it in a pack to Nival. Hopefully before the weekend. I don't know, maybe someone would like to draft the letter...

Dear Nival,
We are sorry to take up your valuable time, but with the amount of ours taken playing your game this seems fair. Heroes V is a fantastic game, and the world of Ashan is beautiful and deep. To see it left stale and unexpanded would be a disater. However, may I remind you of Luke 7:11:
"...and he said unto his deciples, varily, 'a game without fan imput is an abomination before the lord.'"
So, after much thought, hours of work, bitter struggles and compromises, we have come up with two factions which we feel both fit in well in the game you have worked so hard to create, while at the same time fufilling the desires of the community. We know that you probobally have a plan, but the hope that we might affect the future of Ashan, if only slightly, is enough.
-Heroes Community.

I must object politely (but vemenently) to signing this letter "The Heroes Community" since this is not a suggestion based on the wishes of the entire Community, but only a subgroup of it.
No offence intended.

And I would protest vehemently for all the mofos out there that didn't contribute sh*t getting undue credit.  I would go with the Heroes Community Temple Team... Like what we did for the Perfect Stronghold Heroes Community Team.

I shall not really comment on it, but I would hope that you would at least take time to look at the corrections for the document that I posted on page 29, since there are quite a lot of typos and other errors in it.

The letter draft is nice, just drop the Bible parody stuff... And I just can't understand why can't you people get rid of typos. There are quite a lot of them as Alcibiades mentioned.
1) disaster instead of disater
2) disciples instead of deciples
3) fulfilling instead of fufilling
4) probably instead of probobally
And it's just a short letter. They'll never take us seriously this way.
But regardless of the typos it's great.
Alcibiades, if you want we can sign it with "Heroes Community except Alcibiades"...  Sheesh... It's not like we made embarassing towns. But ok, perhaps it's best if we sign ourselves with PS team but we should point out the support of Heroes Community... Well most of it at least

It's not a good idea to change our name constantly. Let's just remain the PS team, we kinda became a brand...
PS fo' life

Thanx Baklava. Actually, you can sign yourself the Heroes Community without me having sleeples nights for that reason*, but I think it'd be fair towards the community not to do it - after all, there are none of the founders of the community, and none of the moderators, in your group. It's just what I consider the polite approach.
* Don't read this**, or I don't want you to be angry with me - now you are warned.
** I still think you won't get anywhere with it, because Nival have their own agenda and almost certainly already are working on the second expansion pack - no matter what you sign yourselves.

One problem with calling us the Perfect Stronghold team... half the ppl that contributed to the temple were in no shape or form involved with the stronghold. and vice versa. still... one letter, two teams, two pdf files. someone please make a stronghold pdf. and baklava, u write the letter. then we can send both towns to Nival.
ps- lets hurry before Nival makes some crappy ideas.

Acibiades, there is nothing wrong with the word stratagem. It means like an attack plan/tactic.

I'll work through Alcibiades' corrections sheet and insert / change my pdf as appropriate, plus I'll give it a scan myself I expect. I can add the Stronghold data in fairly swiftly as plain text, or I could create some sort of design for that too (my feeling is that it would seem odd to have one colourful, one plain; although to be fair the Stronghold has already been sent to them*). I may be able to do this tomorrow / Sunday along with the error changes, however I may not have time. Should I add the Stronghold as plain text so that we can definitely get it sent off soon, or do you want some graphics (assuming I can think of something to do)?
*We need to mention this in the email we send I think
By the way, did Nival reply to the Stronghold (I forget...)?
A few comments on the email - great work (especially the last paragraph), although I personally wouldn't start with the apology, and I think "stale and unexpanded" is a little insulting(!) - and at the very least contradicting what else you've said. Oh, and I'd agree with Alc - politeness really does dictate that we should sign ourselves under our own name as opposed to HC (unless we can e.g. get Val's permission), whether this be the PS team or something else (I used "The HC Temple Team" in my pdf I think).
Fingers crossed that our hard work has even that small effect mentioned...

The stronghold letter wasnt replied. The only reply was from the guy that submitted it to the development team. No reply from the team itself or anyone else on any further developments. Could you please make on for the Stronghold? What program did you use Gnoll Mage? For the stronghold could you put nifty graphics like the temple... preferably a reddish background.

Dear Nival,
Many of us hear at Heroes Community feel that Heroes V is a fantastic game, and the world of Ashan is beautiful and deep. We have all fallen under the spell of Asha's beauty, the rivers of Shalassa, the wide plains with Brightly Armored Warriors riding off to die for what they belive in. All we ask is to make a few comments in what killed them. So, after much thought, hours of work, bitter struggles and compromises, we have come up with two factions which we feel both fit in well in the game you have worked so hard to create, while at the same time fufilling the desires of the community. We know that you probobally have a plan, but the hope that we might affect the future of Ashan, if only slightly, is enough.
