The Vikings of
Funen prepare for battle
Under the direction of Grand Marshal
Dieterus and Marshal
Natalia Alianovna Romanova, also serving in the capacity of Director of Intelligence, the
Vikings of Funen have grown to a size of six members (as of 7/10). The Vikings first deployed on June 26th to assist a multi-organization occupation of
The Black Riders, the gameside hub for
RaiderCon. Five Warriors heeded the call and moved out to support
The Black Hawks.
At the last major update, the Vikings of
Funen retook
SPACE from sluggish defenders with the help of
Lone Wolves United,
DEN,
The Black Hawks, and the Knights of
Ainur. The Senior Command is pleased to report that four such "defender subversives", including one lightsaber-wielding Sentinel that arrived four minutes after update, have been banjected from the region and no sign of a liberation attempt took place at minor.
In a very short period of time,
Funen will be debuting a new regional roleplay,
NScandinavia. Due to the tireless efforts of Jarl
Erigia, a
map is being constantly maintained in preparation for this. This roleplay will be based primarily in Scandinavia and parts of greater Europe and will feature diplomatic ongoings, management of national affairs, and international incidents. As
NScandinavia continues to be developed,
Founder Thoth ra will be introducing another fantasy RP (stay tuned!).
Another Brief Foreign Add-on
In response to a telegram from Nephmir of
Auralia accusing our region of "poaching" their members, the government of
Funen feels obliged to make the following statement:
Funen regards the targeting of specific regions for recruitment purposes to be extremely distasteful. Such allegations compels us to reveal our own recruitment techniques. Domestic Affairs puts aside a fair chunk of every day to manually recruit from the World Activity "founding" page using a telegram template. At times, the department chooses to utilize the "move" tab on that page to determine whether such new nation is genuine, or simply a puppet or a nation of someone who chooses to leave the game after creating this nation. Rest assured that no specific region has been targeted, nor will one ever be. It certainly prompts the argument that nations who have stayed in a region for less than three minutes are not part of that community. As stated before, our conversion rate is approximately 1.8001% from thousands sent. These allegations have also prompted Nephmir to threaten the recruitment-bombing of
Funen, "which we can expect to arrive soon". If he chooses to carry out such a foolish action, Auralia can expect a declaration of war delivered to their doorstep. Nephmir may continue to make idle threats, but certain tangible events do occur when he does so.
