Mightygoose Thanks! And, would your Chicken King be the same as mine or a different one? I am intrigued!

TheMentalist Actually, I don't think so. Perhaps Schulmania will get a Starbucks soon...

Hester She has been busy tending to administrative duties a good but as of late. She is glad to get back in the thick of things.

Jakehh LOL. And, welcome to Schulmania. Please do come visit us again sometime soon.

Muck308 LOL... it is indeed!

Dumanios You are right... don't watch out... they should be caught unaware and defeated quickly and decisively.

Leech10 Indeed! And our new gunpowder weapons should be very helpful in doing just that.

830point35 Hehehehe... glad you liked it.

zahrul3 ST is always kinda slow. IE... that's your problem. I switched to Firefox and everything is faster now.

Wiecher Admiral Hestorb would gladly pounce on any evil Queensferry bugg brave enough to come near her. She may look sweet and fluffy, but she's got claws of doom!

lucky7 Indeed! And they seem to be immune to insecticides... or, rather, they seem to enjoy them. We need a cure!

Leech10 Thanks for the delivery. I'll bet at least the roaches could. They can survive everywhere else...

Mightygoose We will defeat those buggs! Just you wait and see!

penguin007 Always glad to have you pop in. Your support is welcome and appreciated. And I will look forward to seeing your work back here on ST as well.

A question for all of the BAT/LOT makers: what is the angle of the buildings when shown in game? I would like to adjust some of my graphics accordingly but need to know the actual angle used in game. Does anyone know what it is?

Thanx

In Memory

Above is Wiley, who recently had to be put to sleep after her health deteriorated, losing several pounds in a short period of time... and leaving urp piles in various places. She will be missed.

Feb 23 1997 - Nov 27 2010

I wonder if she can get a new life in Schulmania...

[Hester 699]

I am so sorry, Leech. It's so hard when we lose a family member such as they become. Wiley, you are at the Rainbow Bridge now happy with the other animals who are happy and well again. I hope you are welcomed by my sweet kitties I have had and loved. ?

[§haÅ--Ñ€ §hÅŽo 370]

Sad to hear your cat died. At least she was happy before she died.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge...

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing: they miss someone very special to them; who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. YOU have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

I am saddened for your loss and would welcome Wiley to Schulmania. Here, she can join her furry comrades in our cyber feline world. In Babalonia, tonight, she will be remebered and celebrated.

At the Blitkarni Embassy in Friendsville, a cable is delivered to the ambassador by a special representative of the Bureau of Feline Affairs. It reads as follows:

The Bureau of Feline Affairs Governor-General H. J. "Hoppy" Franciflora By order of the Bureau of Feline Affairs Privy Council, Wiley Leech is hereby granted full citizenship in the realm of Schulmania and all territories administered by the Bureau of Feline Affairs. We know that she will be missed at her home but here she will be a valued addition. In recognition of her affiliation with Schulmania and Harar, I am hereby authorized to extend to Wiley her choice of positions in her new home. They are Governor of South Sea District (part of the Regency of Wirdleonia), a member of the Bureau of Feline Affairs administrative team governing the eastern cession, or Mayor of Lake Felis (capital of Harar). We welcome Wiley Leech to Schulmania with heavy heart but open hand.

[Wiecher 192]

meanwhile, in the real world....

East Tenne: Welcome to the East Village

A very scenic spot now has permanent residents. The northern side of the Tenne River Delta and the Tenne Sea intersect here, at the newly built East Village. East Village is the easternmost city in the delta area (hence the name) and faces both the sea and the Tenne River Delta National Park. This is a great place for water enthusiasts. Of course, not many cats go for water. But, catching seabirds is always popular.

East Village is a small town, with a seafront commercial district and mostly low density housing. Many of the homes on the leafy side streets are rentals for tourists. This ambience gives East Village a suburban feel - a much different vibe from the typical Schulminion town of tightly packed medium density homes. Let's see who is making East Village home - for a weekend or perhaps a lifetime.

Apostrophe Place, the commercial port and business district, is a narrow strip facing the Tenne Sea. The port, quite busy during tourist season and weekends, has 10 daily round trips to Knoxvegas and service to all Tenne River towns as well as Tellico, Schulmanidad and Smightower. The name comes from the markets flanking the port access road - Apostrophe Stores (left) and Apostrophe City (right).

In addition to the Apostrophe stores, shops and hotels as well as restaurants and small offices line this busy street. A civic center with school, clinic and municipal offices, is located at the far right,

Much of the sleepy town is given over to residential areas. A central avenue with a tree-filled median leads from the port to the main road to the interior. Radiating from both sides are residential blocks. Other than the residential area and the commercial waterfront, the only other feature to East Village is the waterfront park overlooking the delta and the national park.

Tree lined East Village Drive is the backbone of the town. It ends at Apostrophe Place and the seaport.

See if you can guess which house in this picture is rented mostly by honeymooners.

Here are some of the houses, and the entrance to Governor Cawale's stately vacation home in East Village. Play your cards right and you may be invited over for dinner.

Affectionately known as "The Brown House", Cawale's manor is more of a beige-tan. But, the governor enjoys it for her getaways. Before you visit, be sure to set aside some extra time to try out the hedge maze.

The other end of East Village Drive connects into the main road leading to the Tenne interior.

The south side of town is popular because it is closer to the delta waterfront park.

Several rentals are now available for the weekend.

Dickens Park overlooks the Tenne River Delta National Park. Named for the town's founder, Mr. Wut-tha Dickens, a stroll here is truly a delight.

Mayor Dickens' brother, author Charles, used this relaxing setting to compose several of his famous stories, including A Tale of Two Kitties, A Christmas Wirdle and Oliver Claws.

Nice stuff... I like the riverside areas in East Village, esp. the park and how you have all the tall buildings along the coast.

-Dan

[nathanthemayor 1,261]

Awesome town you have there!

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

Hmm.. Mayor of Lake Felis sounds good.

Looks good, can't wait for more!

[jakehh 52]

Looks amazing. although, Sad news about Wiley. I hope she lives a wonderful life in Rainbow Bridge.

[Schulmanator 5,787]

Bonus video... crazy party cats playing at the vacation hotspot of East Village...

Looks like fun... wanna join in?

[Benedict 3,119]

This town is gorgeous - the fall foliage definitely amplifies the beauty.

[Hester 699]

I LOVED that video! That was one of THE funniest I have seen ever! Those kitties are real he-man cats!

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

Schulmauckland in cooperation with Schulmania is pleased to announce the appointment of His Excellency Sir Oliver Boyd to a new diplomatic posting in Schulmauckland.

He is expected to take up his new postion in January as he is currently only 3 weeks old.

[Hester 699]

Oh, Your Excellency--Sir Oliver Boyd, what a fine addition you will be. Happy to meet you. May I take a kiss?

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

It seems we have a circle of life thing going... Kitty!

Kitty needs to learn how to hide claws...

[citiesxlfan42 27]

I see injuries from those claws in the future.

Great update. Love the fall colors and the Parisian buildings together.

What is the population of this small town?

[Benedict 3,119]

Congratulations, you're number one on this week's Ben's Top Ten!

[Muck308 55]

Cuteness is running rampant! Gah!

[Sgt Pepper 864]

SUBURBIA! Awsome pictures.

[Schulmanator 5,787]

Celebrating 50,000 views! Thanks to everyone who comes by - you made this milestone possible!

New stuff being worked on for release soon...

[Lyhoko Leaci 770]

New stuff! Yay, 50,000 views!

Can't wait for more!

[penguin007 27]

Suburban Schulmania!!! Back in my day Schulmania was a tiny region only just starting to explore the new world. Sorry got all nostalgic there!!!

[Schulmanator 5,787]

A question for all of the BAT/LOT makers: what is the angle of the buildings when shown in game? I would like to adjust some of my graphics accordingly but need to know the actual angle used in game. Does anyone know what it is?

Thanx

Leech10 We are saddened by your loss and would be honored to welcome Wiley to Schulmania. And we are also pleased that she has accepted the position of Mayor in Lake Felis. When the town is built, she will see her new city and hopefully enjoy it greatly.

Hester The Rainbow Bridge is a bittersweet place...

Sirron Kcuhc I am certain Wiley was a very happy cat.

PhatHead Zounds! Zippy zingers zapping!

Wiecher Real world? If only we could choose between real world and our own CJ. I think it'd be interesting to be a subject of TSW IRL...

Dfnva Thanks, Dan. I felt like something different here. I am glad you liked the results.

Nathanthemayor Thank you. And welcome to Schulmania. Please do come and visit us again soon!

Leech10 More? The next update is written and awaiting picture uploads and formatting. So, not much longer to wait.

Jakehh She will be welcome to spend her 8 remaining lives with us. We welcome all kitties and I am sure she will be a popular addition to Harar.

Benedict Thanks. It sorta reminds me of home. Except this is flat and has Parisian buildings. But sorta kinda. Fall is my favorite time of year because the mountains are on fire with dazzling colors.

Hester Now you know what the cats are really thinking!

Abcvs Enemies, beware: get a load of those claws! Sir Oliver will, I am sure, be a great selection for our first overseas diplomatic posting.

Hester First you must present your diplomatic credentials: the Treaty of Tuna, the Certificate of Milk and the Détente of Catnip.

Leech10 Perhaps it's a diplomatic maneuver to impress the canines with his might...

citiesxlfan42 We are quite overdue for a census. But I won't have one till we know how many cities will be destroyed in the war. My estimate is about 1500 for the town.

Benedict Woo hoo! All those bribes have finally paid off!

Muck308 Cuteness overload? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

Sgt Pepper I know... a bit of a surprise. There won't be much of this low density stuff in Schulmania. But a few pockets may turn up from time to time...

Leech10 Thanx!

penguin007 LOL... you are an old timer now! [uses best old man voice...] "... I remember waaaaay back in '06 when Schulmania was just a twinkle in the Supreme Wirdle's eye...]

Killer Bees

Queensferry forces have hit the beaches of Cape Eastway... can we save Schulmania from invasion?

Of course, Schulmania will not stand idly by and allow this to continue unchallenged. Five divisions of troops are in the region and four more in outlying positions. Queensferry will pay dearly for this aggressive incursion. IV Corps 7th Division 118th and 19t9h Regiments are now equipped with cannons. They are positioned on the edge of town and have been laying down fire at ships offshore as well as landing craft. The V Corps 10th Division 127th Regiment has been moved from its base at Mercaptan and is in a support role with another set of newly-developed cannon.

Moving cannon into position to oppose the invasion force.

The three artillery regiments have a combined 48 cannon. The last few from Mercaptan are now just about in position.

On the outskirts of Cape Eastway, sustained reinforcements from the V Corps and BFA X Corps keep constant fire on the enemy. Though the enemy has moved in closer, they are sustaining moderate losses from our big guns.

Meanwhile, elements of Squadrons VII and VII of the Third Fleet have completed their sweeping maneuver to attack the Queensferry navy from their exposed left flank and divert them from the beachhead they established.

The cannon fire diverts some enemy ships and inflicts moderate damage. The wooden ships are heavily armed but lightly manned, as it is assumed the ships will be destroyed. Admiral Hestorb is having each ship fire three rounds and either flee or abandon ship. Any abandoned ship will be rigged with gunpowder and sailed into the enemy line.

Of course, enemy fire on our positions has not ceased. The town of Cape Eastway is quickly turning into rubble. Helicopter gunships have been recalled due to cannon fire and high flying carrier-based bombers have now been deployed.

Destruction rains down upon the city from above.

Fires are burning all over town and no one is trying to put them out. Defenders are solely focused on repelling the invaders; the town can be replaced.

Troops are ready for whatever Queensferry has to offer.

Soldiers, backed by cavalry and artillery, have taken up positions all around the city and in the rolling hills beyond. We are ready.

Meanwhile, massive bomb blasts have been taking out defensive outposts and cratering the city.

Tactical Response Teams fanned out over the area to provide support and challenge the enemy. More than 30 teams are in the combat zone, the largest TRT concentration to date.

Despite our best efforts and improved technology, the swarm of enemy soldiers is simply too much. Outnumbered by a factor of at least 8 to 1 and suffering high casualties, Schulmania's military starts to gradually give way.

Schulmania's military is outmanned and outgunned, though it has been inflicting heavy casualties. Queensferry continuously replenishes its arms and personnel from its base on "Love Island" so casualty numbers on their side become almost irrelevant.

As our limited supplies of weapons and ammunition dwindle due to the sheer scope of the invasion force, more and more enemy troops make it to the shore successfully. As the beachhead is established, fighting intensifies as the two armies come head to head in a struggle which will determine the course of the war. Will we successfully repel them or will they establish their evil dominion over our land? These are the times that try cats' souls...

Fire! Fire at will!

Fire! Fire!

Despite our best efforts, the bombardment is more than our military is able to withstand. Field Marshal Mooky orders a withdraw to regroup to the northwest.

The army is departing Cape Eastway for the moment. We assure our enemy that any perceived triumph will be very temporary. We will prevail.

And the enemy establishes itself on the Schulmania mainland.

[Craig-Abcvs 1,595]

Fire! Fire at will!
