Every time I see The Black Riders invade a region it's always the same copy/paste stuff in the WFE for that region, and it gets boring. Can y'all spice it up a bit or something? Get some variety going! Put some love into it!


In principle The Black Riders tagging protocol doesn't prevent individual pointmen from customizing every single tag they have, following certain, general guidelines when doing so. However, standard tag format is designed to minimize non-essential work and make tagging duties faster to do. It is also our 'brand'.

Tags are important part of our recruitment methodology, and in that sense improvements could be wise to do... Maybe. But, why change functional and successful concept? At least not because some random native considers it as an eye sore! :lol:


Some random native is probably not the best term. SiF was the deputy of Intellegence in Liberty Riders International.

Black rider outrider team scouting on the Taglands

Major Update, March 20th

Huzzah! Despite a mysterious technical problems The Black Riders made yet another tagland maneuver. Two defenders were encountered on the Tagfields, but their lack of battle morale made them retreat soon enough later, and consequently they couldn't stop the riders achieving some results regardless of their difficulties.

The Almighty Raideron can be pleased for the deeds of his/hers children. Huzzah!

50 and 55 hits by 2 riders are both obsolete records for these new 1 hour 50+ minutes long major updates. Minor updates are only about 1 hour 15 minutes long. Actually, records made during Minor and Major updates aren't anymore really compatible with each other.

Either case, 50+ hits/update is always good result despite is it done during minor or Major update, if not because nothing else then because it simply look good on a report. :)

Witch-Queen of Cimmeria channeling orders from the divine Raideron for oncoming Cavalry Assault


Minor Update, March 20th

Charge! The Black Riders made a full scale Cavalry assault under command of Cimmerian Secretary Corvus Corax. Everything that makes a good raid existed during this fierce attack against native regimes on the taglands. Fendas were encountered, but Alas!, nothing could stop the fast moving assault lance of the Elite Cavalry, blessed this time with fast speed and high accuracy.

There will be savage orgies tonight in the mountain villages of Cimmeria. CROM!

Major Update, March 21st

HUZZAH! No mere rocky start can stop the Black Riders, and evidently, neither can those pesky fendas - especially when they don't show up! Weekends do not always mean bigger and more exciting battles, but the Riders always arrive and attack with both accuracy and precision.

There shall be celebrations (especially beer) tonight!

The Black Riders enter their final conquest of the day, victorious and hungry

Minor Update, March 21st

HUZZAH! The same four, valiant Riders rise once again, twelve hours later, for yet another raid - a better one! They rode fast, they rode with vigor, and they rode together. Although a few Fendas resisted in the early hours, they retreated quickly, not to be heard from again. The Black Riders stuck fear deep into their hearts - along with a few spears and lances!

True. Nice we have new skill for these things, traditionally placed to secondary priorities in TBR activities (or fallen to responsibility of uneducated, linquistically incapable barbarians :P).

That was near perfect run for this Team under command of traditionally slowest switcher in The Cavalry. Excellent Everyone! Fendas had very little changes today against us. HUZZAH! :clap:

A Milestone of 1000th triggered hit broken today by Cora The "Reserve Trigger". Third page of War Diary Started too... 22 pages left. CROM! :lol:
