14th of May, Afternoon patrol

Celuvian Haap, Watchman leading
Zoie Hayden, Guardsman Recruit in accompaning

Celuvian took me out on a patrol of the Covian Shire this afternoon and to introduce me to the nearby dungeon of Covetous.

On the way, Cel had me kill off any zombies and rats we came across, and soon we'd reached the cave entrance. He showed me inside to view the harpies that reside there, then we left to head back to the Barracks.
On the way back however, we decided to clean out the graveyard and confront the Liche that had been squatting there for some time. After an intense battle with the Liche and it's minions, I was wounded, and Cel directed us back to the Barracks. We made it safe and sound and felt good having protected the Shire once again.

Hmm those hours sound suspiciously like Tech Support....

Say it ain't so Ty!

Can you do better?

Yes! Check this guy out:
http://www.digiphobia.com/ultimasongs/

They are parodies of real world songs with a UO theme.
I used to love these songs when I played UO many years ago, before Trammel and Felucca, where PvP was involuntary and rampant, and there was no such thing as item insurance.

It doesn't look like the site has been updated in many years so I'm sure a lot of the songs won't really appeal to newer players of the game as most of them center around the chaos that random world PvP used to bring. However, they are good songs on their own!

It's reasonable to assume that KR won't have very high requirements; not nearly as high as other current MMOs. I wouldn't worry about any computer running it.

I've never liked imageshack. It seems every other link I follow to view a picture on there, it brings me to the front page.

I've used Photobucket for quite some time now and it's always been extremely reliable. Also, I don't think they have a limit on the amount of pictures.

When: [11th of May, 8:30pm - 9:20pm]
Where: [Cove Barracks Roof]

Commanding Officer: [Kelly, Officer Cadet]
Guardsmen in attendance:
- [Tyrael Styx, Watchman]
- [Perrin, Watchman]
- [Celuvian Happ, Watchman]
- [Falconheart, Watchman][Left early]
- [Snudrud, Watchman][Arrived late]
- [Mercy, Guardsman Recruit][Arrived late]
- [Zoie Hayden, Guardsman Recruit]

A friendly sparring match between Celuvian and I was joined by two other Watchmen, and before we knew it, the lot of us were lined up in front of Cadet Kelly.
Her first aim was to check our gear and equipment and after some harsh words to those with green quivers, demanded to see our bandage supply.


After our equipment was in order, we began basic drills: Turn left, about face, face front, salute, etc.



Then we went over basic combat formations:
The Box:


And the Line:


Once we were finished with that drill, Kelly felt it necessary to limber us up and give us a bit of a workout and a lesson in diplomacy



Now that we were limber, it was time for some wrestling! Two teams, one of which I was the leader of, were pitted against each other in a no holds barred fight for honour!



Not being satisfied with mere fisticuffs, Cadet Kelly ordered us to put on our armour and fight to the death with whatever means necessary! After angily banishing Snudrud for attempting to steal from Perrin, she was out for blood!
It was my first Free for all deathmatch, but I did well enough to not be the first one out. When it was all said and done, Perrin emerged the victor!



Having satisfied her for the evening, Kelly dismissed us with kind words and a job well done!

When: [11th of May, 6:20pm-6:50pm]
Where: [Cove Barracks]

Commanding Officer: [Flina Trix, Junior Dragoon]
Guardsmen in attendance:
- [Hoagie, Dragoon Sergeant]
- [Delmarian Tel'var, Senior Grenadier]
- [Conan Darkmoon, Regular Grenadier]
- [Dalamar, Regular Scout]
- [Snudrud, Watchman]
- [Tyrael Styx, Watchman]
- [Celuvian Haap, Watchman]
- [Zoie Hayden, Guardsman Recruit]

The evening started off with nervous surprise as Junior Dragoon Flina ordered everyone present to line up, and remove our armour. But for most of us, we were only wearing our armour; so we relied on the thin sash and small kilt to cover our modesty.


We were then ordered to do warm-up exercises. Arm stretches, touch toes, jog in place, and starjumps (once Dalamar showed us what exactly a starjump was...).


After our workout, Flina ordered Hoagie and Delmarian to wrestle and give us all a bit of a show.



Once they had slugged it out for a bit, the rest of us were directed to partner up and beat each other senseless!


My partner ended up being Snudrud who had his own unique way of wrestling, and had some special tactics..


Somehow he bested me, managing to knock me unconscious; but I just wasn't ready for his slimy standard of fighting! One day, I shall have my revenge!


One we cleaned the cuts, stopped the bleeding, and revived the unconscious, Flina called an end to the exercise, and handed leadership over to Tyraen who was preparing to take the company out to the fields for some Bagball. I took my leave to write this report.


All in all, it was a fun and exhausting training exercise that brought us all together a little more.

I could teach basic Fencing with a variety of weapons, and even Fencing combat while mounted as I have years of experience in both fields.
That is, if my current rank doesn't forbid it. *Grins*

It was my first sentry as well, and a cracking one at that!
