Additional Consequences
1. The Loreesi settlement of Port Valiant will be awarded an extra 5 military points for the colonisation challenge.
2. Loreos may select one of the elite units depicted in their restricted entries which will have a major role in a future global storyline update. The faction should also create a NPC to lead them.
3. In recognition of their military prowess, King Chartres grants the faction of Loreos with a company of his elite Royal Guard to be used in anyway the faction chooses (in reality this will mean Loreesi builders may include Royal Guards in builds and stories in the upcoming global challenges of this global story arc).
4. Lenfald may select one of their units or characters from either a bignette or restricted entry to play a role in a future global storyline update.
5. The Lenfald settlement of Abnerburgh will be awarded an extra 2 military points for the colonisation challenge.
6. As a consequence of the construction of Fort Scurvy and the increased settlement and development such a major work brings, the Outlaw settlement of Port Scurvy will advance to the second level (Level One) in the colonisation challenge. The points previously accrued will be added in addition to the points required for Level One.
Faction leaders, if your faction has been awarded a role in a Global storyline update, please post your choices here.
Thank you all for your participation in this challenge. The next challenge is well into the planning stages and is probably two global storyline updates away. For those who were disappointed that this challenge didn't seemingly relate the the story, fear not! The next challenge will directly relate to the story, and the consequences of winning (and loosing!) will have a greater impact than ever before!
Also at one stage before Christmas we discussed actual prizes. I have a small stash of sealed CMF figures I am saving as prizes for a LoR competition, but I may save them for a later competition if there are no massive objections...
As usual, let us know any comments/criticisms that have arisen from this competition.
Cheers,
