Tim never posted the thread
 Rumors of our Demise have been Greatly Exaggerated

High Constable: Altmoras. Chamberlain: Deadeye Jack. Warden Commander: Tim. Warden Constables: Dolen Tum En Coia, Birdkeeper. New Stuff
The Landsmeet The Landsmeet is designed to be a regional-discussion in which we contemplate the implementation of a possible government system and expanding cultural activities within the region. It's come to our attention that the vast majority of our region is tailored towards those that are only involved in military gameplay in NationStates. We want to establish further options for other people in our community to get involved and expand what we can all do together. To accomplish this goal, we have opened up discussions on how we can build our region up to civilian activities like culture, roleplay, government, and much more. Further information can be found at the Entrance to the Landsmeet. A New Command With the retirement of several members of our command team, including our founder Benevolent Thomas, the remaining commanders (Altmoras, Deadeye Jack, and Tim) decided not to close up shop, but instead to bring in new blood and reshuffle the existing command structure in order to maintain our Order's momentum for the foreseeable future. Firstly, Birdkeeper was promoted to the position of Warden-Constable where he will assist the commanders in leading operations and take the lead in their absence. Second, Deadeye Jack will be serving as the Order's new Chamberlain where he will take over responsibility for our records in addition to his current responsibilities as a commander. Third, Altmoras will step into the vacant seat of High Constable where he will take charge over the Order's foreign affairs and serve as our Second-In-Command. And last, but not least, Roavin will be assuming the role of First Warden in a ceremonial capacity until the conclusion of his term as The South Pacific's Minister of Military Affairs, whereupon he will assume his full role as our new leader. Record Breaking The reddit/imgur boom of September 2016 caused many regions to reach record highs in population and The Order of the Grey Wardens was no different. Following the boom our region hit a record high of 333 nations, with over 50 of those being WA members. This growth also translated into our military as several promising new members were inducted into the ranks of the Wardens. Overall we're very happy with our new friends from imgur and reddit, less so with the 2 hour long updates that they brought with them. Commendable Despite our somewhat reduced volume of boasting lately, the Wardens have in fact been doing a lot of important work, and with the return of our resident ribbon maker Tim Stark we are once again able to give our troops the accolades they deserve for their excellent performance. Firstly we have the ribbon awarded for The NSIA Raid. This ribbon is awarded to all the Wardens who participated in the titanic 84 updater team that seized the notorious Fascist region known as The NSIA or The National Socialist Invasion Army. This cooperation with all branches of gameplay to destroy such a storied instrument of Fascist hate stands as a testament to our Order's resolve to not only defend, but to strike back against those who would harm vulnerable NS communities.

Awarded for The NSIA Raid on the 22nd of October, 2016 Wardens Recognized: Altmoras Birdkeeper Deadeye Jack Dolen tum en Coia GaTITO Roavin Fallen Warden Recognized: Olevsky The second ribbon was awarded for the liberation of Belgium and The North Woods in the same update. This ribbon is awarded to all the Wardens who participated the colossally successful operation, in which the Wardens and our allies liberated both large occupations in a single update. This operation also marked the beginning of our cooperation with The United Defender Brotherhood, a group that had been long on the fringes of Defenderdom, who stormed the gates right along side us in a promising symbol of Defender Unity. In honor of the aforementioned cooperation, this operation has been lovingly named Operation Defender Illuminati.

Hey we're still alive, update incoming soon, please don't purge us in the upcoming DOOMPURGE of Consulates.
Recently Unveiled Guardian Program Takes Off!
![[Image: latest?cb=20150320044612]](https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonage/images/a/a6/Blackwall_HoDA.png/revision/latest?cb=20150320044612) The Grey Wardens have added a new dimension to their forces to eradicate darkspawn and stop the advancement of the blight. The new soldiers are known as Guardians and they are made up of regional residents. The new program is the collective brainchild of Warden Command that has been in the planning stages for the last couple months. The Commanders wanted to find a way to reduce barriers to participating in defending and offer more frequent missions for those who cannot attend updates regularly like those who can complete their Warden joining. The Guardians have been involved in a handful of missions during their first week and have had a handful of different participants with no signs of slowing down. These missions have been defenses and supports, and in the future will also include detags. Currently, First Warden Roavin has taken it upon himself to run the Guardians for now, but it is the hope and vision of Command that eventually Guardians will be able to spot and lead missions themselves and administrate themselves as they gain experience. Condemn The Grey Wardens?!?!?
![[Image: unknown.png]](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/209340852236058627/315977122831400962/unknown.png) Recently the anti-raider and anti-fascist work of the Grey Wardens came under scrutiny in the World Assembly Security Council. The proposal was poorly written and lacking in facts and context, which is not surprising considering it was written at the behest of a fascist and Nazi friendly darkspawn region with an axe to grind. They have suffered numerous losses at the hands of the Warden Order and its allies in both offensive and defensive operations. While this proposal never had a chance of passing in the Security Council it was a bit perplexing it even made it to vote where it has been unceremoniously stomped into oblivion like it deserved to be. The Wardens view this proposal as recognition of their strong efforts in combatting and flustering darkspawn, especially fascist raiders with Nazi allies, across NationStates. The proposal also provided an opportunity for natives the Wardens dedicate themselves to protecting to give feedback and reaffirm why the Wardens do what they do. One particularly notable address came from St. Abbaddon’s delegate, Kitsco: Quote:Greetings To the members of the security council. Promotions, Promotions, Promotions!
![[Image: ACMS001_Siege_Ladder_720x720.jpg]](https://image.ibb.co/kTzn5v/ACMS001_Siege_Ladder_720x720.jpg) Occasionally there comes a Warden who shows intense dedication to the cause and goes above and beyond the call of duty. It is only fitting that such a person receives recognition of his achievements on the battlefield and as a leader. We are pleased to announce the newest Warden Commander, Lenlyvit! He has worked his way up the Warden ranks proving his worth on the battlefield (over 100 operations in a half year) and demonstrating his penchant for leadership as a Warden Constable and Head of Native Affairs. The Order is proud of Lenlyvit’s accomplishments and cannot think of a more deserving Warden to ascend to Command and be a part of shaping the Order’s direction. But wait, there is more! We have also promoted two Wardens to the rank of Warden Lieutenant where they will receive training and opportunity to lead missions as they are groomed to become future leaders in the Wardens. The new Warden Lieutenants are Pyrosky and House of Cards. Pyrosky has earned the merit based rank of Senior Warden and is also currently serving as the leader of DUTY. House of Cards is a raider convert who has embraced defending and has become one of the fastest defenders in NationStates. We are excited to see what these two do with this new opportunity. Featured Warden: Birdkeeper!
Instead of doing a formal interview, this time we opted to just hold the interview for our featured Warden in the public channel of our Discord server. The choice of Warden to feature was easy - Birdkeeper happened to be around at the time, so he was it. Birdkeeper joined the Order in September 2016, becoming a reliable Warden-Lieutenant and a great asset to our community. What you see here has been heavily edited to retain a semblance of sanity and continuity; the actual interview was much more chaotic, hilarious, and a reflection of the community we've built on our Discord server. High Constable Deadeye Jack commented on that interview simply with "This is so Wardens". ![[Image: XXPV74Y.png?1]](https://i.imgur.com/XXPV74Y.png?1)
