Dear players,

Today we are introducing a new historical order to server Britannia. We had two pretenders upon this new subject, both are well known and experienced players – angelstar83 and Limanshu999, each bringing their own team of professional players with them – orders of United Heroes and Snoopy. Our decision wasn’t a simple one, because we would like to see both orders in the plot, but, only one could be accepted. In order to solve this problem we decided to host a Knights Tournament and let both players decide who shall obtain the historical order in a fair fight.


Players angelstar83 and Limanshu999 fought a battle against each other in order to get a new order of Scotland. The battle rules were such:
- both players get a task to gather an army. The restrictions are: size of army – 10 000 soldiers (for both regular troops and mercenaries), 10 heroes and an ability to use every artifact they can get their hands on;
- developers create a locked contour belonging to adventureHut;
- in center of the contour a Barbarian Settlement is created. It is surrounded by temporary teleported two player cities from east and west. One city belongs to angelstar83, the other one to Limanshu999;
- player armies are then being checked by developers. When everything is considered correct, both players simultaneously receive a command to march towards the Barbarian Settlement;
- upon entering the location, players are ordered to explore it (Barbarian Settlement itself). The one who succeeds in this task is declared a winner of the tournament. The problem is that it is impossible to explore the location without the fear of being confronted by your enemy. Because of that, only the strongest or the evasive one succeeds;
- player who successfully explores the location is declared a victor of the tournament.




Contingent of player armies:


The victory was taken by angelstar83. He received a new historical order of Scotland.

About the new order

Previous king of Scotland – William I the Lion is an old man, he has ruled his kingdom wisely for several decades now. He is tired and all the new challenges and problems do not improve his health. The time has come to let his son – Alexander II, seat on the throne of Scotland.




Upon the coronation ritual, loyal and abiding son of William the Lion, Alexander the Second has promised to support and defend his father and his party, from that day forward, in plenty and in want, in joy and in sorrow, in sickness and in health and until the day Lord takes him away. After the coronation, Alexander II has changed the previous flag of Scotland to a MacMalcolm family coat-of-arms – a red lion on the golden background.



These changelist of historical orders:
Kingdom-order of Scotland (order master: koval77) was renamed to Faction of Lion
Kingdom-order of United Heroes (order master: angelstar83) was renamed to Scotland


The new kingdom-order of Scotland inherits its war status with Kingdom of Norway and has a permanent (blood bound) Alliance with Faction of Lion. It also saves all its previous relationships with non-historical orders.
