Andau - 2000 years of history

[Albus of Garaway]

I hadn't visited Andau for a while (In fact, I've been absent from SC4 related things for several months now), and so I decided to pay a visit. I went back and read the diary in its entirety and...wow! I am extremely impressed.

First of all, although I am extremely interested in history, I wouldn't consider myself an expert in the slightest. I'm probably not even a very good history trivia buff. Yet, the way you present the events in this diary makes me absolutely convinced that I'm reading some sort of illustrated textbook. I honestly don't know how accurate your information is (Although I trust that it is fairly so), but the way you present it is very convincing, and more importantly, exciting.

Secondly, the visual quality of the diary is simply masterful. Everything from the muddy dirt roads, to the marvelous temples, to the serene forests, and the intense battle scenes is just spot on. Attention to detail is marvelous. I can't say enough good things about this diary. I'm seriously looking forward to your next entry!

Berhard - Thanks for the links, and indeed I have found this museum already searching the net for pictures of Roman ships.

Marsh - Thanks for posting

Andreas - Nice of you to stop by, and I guess the sky's the limit.... at lest that is what I heard.

Arthur - Thanks for commenting and for once we are in the same category (congratulations to you as well)

Djvandrake - Thanks a lot

Thomas Neto - The most regular poster here, thanks to you as well.

Jason - Wow, that is very nice of you to make such a positive and inspiring comment. I have read a lot of history just because I find it interesting. Some things are taken from the texts that I have read, but as this is a place that does not really exist in the real world some parts are fiction or interpretation of things I have come across in history books.
You would think that history is about truth or what actually happened, but if you start reading more books on the same topic you will discover that the turn of events at a certain time and place can be open to interpretation.

Battlecat - Thanks a lot

RickD - Nice to see you here

Joan - Thanks a lot for the honour.

Ethan - Thanks

Will - first a small teaser, but update is on its way

Terring7 - You might not be, but I am certain

Marsh - Thanks again

During the holidays we have been working on the shipyard that is being built at Portus Fons.
Here is another teaser while we (the Romans and myself) are working on the rest of the marine base.


See you all soon
