    I love this mod, and would like to contribute any way possible. I suck at mapping, so how about another way for fans to contribute to this wonderful mod? Like how about we submit quotes, and those that are deemed worthy could be incorporated into the game, from the loading screen? Here are some of mine.

    Ahead of me two enemy platoons encroach on my position. Behind me lie nothing but the riverbed. As I can not swim, I write my last entry, and with a deep breath I load my weapon. The sky is setting, and with any luck, I will sneak out of here without detection.

    - Mitch D. Carlen, Northern Faction Scout


    For each victory, we celebrate. For each defeat, we rectify. There is no stopping this holy empire. Our campaigns in the wilderness and at home have brought us great victory. At dusk, we march for their capitol, keeping this war machine well fed.

    - General Jarek Obwalden, Brenodian Empire


    My brother died yesterday, and today I may surely perish. War has tarnished our souls, and it has eroded our humanity. But never again. I will give great effort, and by nightfall I will be at peace.

    - Edger T. Romberg, Northern Faction

    On this night, we rejoice. On this night, we celebrate. Why, you may ask? Because on this night, Jekotia is reborn. On this night, we fight back. On this night, we go to war with the Brenodi one final time, and begin our final crusade for what is rightfully ours!

    They think we are defeated, that we lie in ruin, that we are nothing. Tonight we prove the Brenodi wrong. Tonight we prove to them that we are a force to be reckoned with, a force that will not die, a force that refuses to die, a force that cannot die. A force that will fight till the bitter end, whether that be victory, or a cold bloody defeat.

    - Commander Patterson, Declaration of War Broadcast to the remains of the Jekotian Empire (Northern Faction)

    yeah, B is very prone to happening.
    a) will never happen! it will be the adventerous story of a NF soldier with 1 leg and 1 arm who had to bail out behind enemy lines. Certificate 50, contains sexual references.

    But yeah, i'll jsut have to wait and think. Who picks which quotes are "good"

    "The echoes of a former nation. Ghosts of an army lost in the mists of time. We waited. Water dripped off the naked, blackened trees, falling into small streams, which ran around the ankles of a small Brenodi Soldier. His eyes were greyed from fatigue, his clothes worn and tattered, he stumbled through the undergrowth, and into my vision. Silently, I cocked the rifle, and drew a bead on the enemy soldier. And as the lightning lit up the night sky, I opened fire."

    Unknown Private of the 2nd Jekotian rangers, Pathfinder Platoon, Whiskey Squad.
