    *Head shatters from excitement!*

    Now that the excitement has worn over I must say it's awesome to be following one of your AARs from the start.

    Alfie! Are the Crovans laid permanently to rest?

    Likewise, the combination of you and Crusader Kings tends to produce good stuff. Subscribed.
    Stand up, all victims of oppression,
    For the tyrants fear your might!
    Don't cling so hard to your possessions,
    For you have nothing if you have no rights!
    Let racist ignorance be ended,
    For respect makes the empires fall!
    Freedom is merely privilege extended,
    Unless enjoyed by one and all.

    I might have exaggerated in that last teaser

    No, not forever. I finished playing 'em through 1835 and the failure to convert to Vicky1 was disheartening...when Vicky2 comes out and someone makes the inevitable converter - then onward. I know I stopped updating in 1650~, but you know, the idea I couldn't move into the modern era fouled it all up. I'll get my mojo back in Q3.

    --------------
    I just realized that, since I traditionally only update between Monday and Thursday that this will open and then sit and rot for a whole weekend, so I slapped together the 1st update! Enjoy!

    Nah. If this is as good as the Crovans, there's no way I'll be let down.

    And by the way, how could Eirik, the man with manliest jaw evar, sire a fat guy with lumps on his face that Einar is?

    Ah, poor Einar's fishing wasn't enough for him to escape his wife's clutches!

    My, my, you're busy these days! This alternating diary approach works quite well, you set up that particular cataclysmic encounter nicely.

    I think Einar would be much happier if he discovered the theological teachings of that one Crovan saint as related by Dagmar (name currently sadly eluding me) - you know the one, he of the unfortunate encounter between privates and cutting implement. It'd be one way to forever be rid of Helga's attentions...

    So, let's see how you fill the next 120 years or so of absolutely nothing happening. As far as I can see, the greatest event in Icelandic history in this timeframe will be the arrival of the plague.

    you have to fear for Iceland's genetic future if Tad is indeed the embodiment of lust ... I have bad feelings as to the nature of the thing he's drinking out of
