Re: The Academy
We would love a SE:IV Academy Article.
We would use Chris's Mod article but it has already been posted  .

Re: The Academy
I have a few ideas. Can you offer any guidelines as to content / length / style?

"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
"Uh, I think so, Brain, but balancing a family and a career ... oooh, it's all too much for me. "

Re: The Academy
I've had a look - it says 2500 words max, but that's about it. I also had a look earlier at some of the previously posted articles:
The norm seems to be game accounts with a strategic lesson to be taught. Is that specifically the kind of thing you're looking for, or are other things acceptable? Obviously you want to see a clear link to a Shrapnel published game, but how strong does that link have to be? I won't have any problems working within those boundaries, I just want to know where they lie.

Re: The Academy
It can't be about a non Shrapnel game BUT it could be about a general war topic if that is what you are asking.

Re: The Academy
dogscoff:
It can be about almost anything. We would prefer that it have a lesson to teach or be informative in some way. An after action report would even work here. The main thing to remember is that it should be informative.
