  2. That final win in the realism campaing against the 3tePGD that lasted over a year was an incredible day. We had worked so hard to get that win, and it paid. Plus it was the day I got promoted to an SNCO rank. So yeah I think it was my proudest moment.

  7. Just found out Engle's ancestor history on wikipedia while researching infos on an important lake that served for environmental studies in Sweden : Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson (1390s – 4 May 1436) was a Swedish rebel leader and later statesman. He was the leader of the Engelbrekt rebellion in 1434 against Eric of Pomerania, king of the Kalmar Union. Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson was a mine owner and a nobleman from the Bergslag of Norberg in the historic Swedish province of Dalarna. His family originally came from Germany, having migrated to Sweden in the 1360s. The family coat of arms shows three half-lilies formed into a triangle. Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson was dissatisfied by the numerous offenses of the Danish local bailiffs and heavy taxation. In 1426 he started a rebellion with the support of mine workers and peasants from his home area. Engelbrekt set against the king's bailiff in Västerås, Jösse Eriksson, who was blamed for the distress that mining men suffered under his rule. The rebellion grew into a massive force sweeping the country. In 1435 Engelbrekt was appointed Rikshövitsman, Commander in chief, at a Riksdag in Arboga that is often considered the first Riksdag in Sweden. However, he was not able to withstand the Swedish nobility, who wanted to exploit the rebellion. He was somewhat forced into the background. The Nobility and Clergy decided to support Karl Knutsson Bonde, who in 1436 was risen to the position of Rikshövitsman. On 4 May 1436 Engelbrekt was assassinated at Engelbrektsholmen, an islet in Lake Hjälmaren by the aristocrat Måns Bengtsson, who lived in the nearby Göksholm Castle. Engelbrekt was buried in Örebro church. Over the next few decades, he became a national hero. Engelbrekt was depicted in history as the public protector and opponent of the Kalmar Union. Posterity has regarded Engelbrekt as one of the great heroes of Swedish history and his rebellion has been viewed as the start of the national awakening of the Swedes, which would later triumph in the victory of King Gustav Vasa. His bronze statue by Swedish sculptor Carl Gustaf Qvarnström (1810–1867), was unveiled in Örebro in 1865. There are also statues of Engelbrekt in Stockholm, Arboga and Falun. No contemporary images of Engelbrekt are known. Engelbrekt is also the subject of Engelbrekt, an opera by Swedish composer Nathaniel Berg (1879–1957). (Engelbrekts församling) a parish in the Diocese of Stockholm, together with Engelbrekt Church (Engelbrektskyrkan), take their name from the hero. Source.
  8. Alright Heresy, send me your info and I'll keep you updated with what is going on. Thanks to both of you for offering your help!! It's really appreciated!
  9. Well, Ohio is still pretty close! And so far you are the only one to have given me an answer I know it's not something usual to ask for on the internet and I knew right when I wrote the topic that not much people, if any, would be willing to do that.
  10. Hi guys, I'm looking for help from one of you in the U.S. to buy something (winter boots for my girlfriend actually) online and have it shipped to your place then shipped to me in Canada. As I'm in the East I think it would be cheaper if it was someone from the East Coast, preferably not too much South. I'm asking for this because the company sells the boots 160$ cheaper if they are shipped to somewhere in the U.S. instead of in Canada. I'd cover all fees including the UPS fees to have it shipped from your place to mine so you wouldn't have to pay a dime. So, basically, all I'd need is your adress and you to make sure that the boots are picked up by UPS at your home. If someone is willing to provide that help just PM me and we'll sort it out together. My girlfriend (and myself) says "big big big thanks in advance!"
