A number of the changes this year were pretty far-reaching and led to standardization of text across the entire book. As part of the transition process we also moved out of expensive, difficult-to-use software and into much simpler software (so other people who get the job can maintain it). As a result, many sections of the book had to be touched in order to achieve the goals set forth by the CoM changes. We did the work of several revision processes all in one go. In recognition of that fact, I skipped from 7.3 to 7.5. I didn't go to 7.4 because then we would get the odd/even changes/clarifications thing out of synch.

It has been my pleasure to work on the rulebook and to help it get to where it is now. I am even more pleased to be seeing it change from the purview of just a few men to an open and transparent process managed by the people of Amtgard with an equal voice for all groups.

I would also like to take a second to thank Kurse and Randall, without whom none of the things that have happened over the past couple of years would have been possible. It truly has been a labor of love for all three of us. We have a lot of plans for the future of Amtgard, and I hope you are all as excited about them as I am. We have been in a period of unparalleled improvement in the organization and quality of our society and I hope that, together, we can all push forward into an even brighter future.

[AP News] The Desert Winds was once a peaceful land, the populace had joined forces time and time again to keep attackers at bay and to work together hand in hand to earn the rank of Kingdom.

But now the excitement has worn off and the populaces of the Desert Winds have turned on each other. Similar to that of a bar room brawl, everyone has joined in – happily attacking their neighbors and breaking age old treaties. It is rumored that the new King Rico is behind the sudden greed of his subjects. Reportedly King Rico placed lands up for sale in a “silent action”, selling lands that rightfully belonged to his Duchys, Baronys and Shires. I have an inside source that claims King Rico even gave away lands. In an interview, concerned parties stated that they are “certain the funds are for padding the Kingdom coffers.”

The true terror of the matter is that King Rico opened the “silent action” land sales up to Kingdom outsiders. As I am reporting this, the land owner named Legion is marching on The River’s End Crown lands. No one seems to know who this ‘Legion’ is and if they do they are too fearful to report it the media. This just in: A source just reported that not only are the land owners attacking lands but there are now reports coming in that Orcs, gremlins and other beasts are surfacing within the Desert Winds.

Just in the past week five lands were attacked. Each of the land owners seems to be trying to increase their lands but to what end we are uncertain. Monarchy members have refused to comment on the situation. We are unsure if it is due to fear or that they too are part of the conspiracy.
