WAR AND WEAPONRY

[gocoldturkey]

General notes: All rooms show signs of burn damage. Some water damage. There is evidence of other rooms besides those listed, but are currently not accessible.

GALLERY OF WEAPONRY
• Suits of armor, including some for horses and some unidentifiable animal. With them is an assortment of weapons. No explanations provided.
• A medieval machine gun that shoots arrow. It's too damaged to function anymore.
• Two statues; One of a cowled woman holding a lantern (God of Death) and the other of a winged teenage boy (Keats, God of Family)
• An assortment of crucified animals. Before they where on the ground, but by now they should at least be put up on a wall, or resting on a table. They're stuck a little out of the way.
• A painting of Jesus fighting Jesus. With a claymore.
"Marcus Alexander's representation of the religious rift between Accido and the rest of Fortuna. The different interpretations of Catholicism would eventually spark the Red Crusades in the mid-1300's and--" The rest is too damaged to read.

VISIONS OF WAR
Black and white photos of the following
• Photos of soldiers: a group shot near one of the buildings on the airship, two soldiers sharing a cigarette in a younger, more Roman-looking Discedo, a female soldier in a trench, and a soldier laughing with a duck on his head.
• A very impressive and massive airship. The explanation is as follows;
"The T55 airship, more commonly known as 'Fort Alta' or 'Heaven's Raider'. The first air craft to double as a military base, it is a marked achievement through Eight Coalition Accido-Discedo Alliance during the War of Western Independence."
• Another photo of the same airship crashing into a city. Above the picture is carved 'ALL ABOARD THE FAILSHIP'.
"After a five-day barrage of anti-aircraft missiles and a faulty bomb release, the aircraft crashes into Hollisland's capital, Bautzenburg, effectively ending the war."

• A map! and it's explanation;
“The Siege of Dissimulo in 1896 was the most important turning point of the War of Western Independence and is considered the bloodiest battle in human history, with more combined casualties suffered than any battle before or since. The battle was marked by brutality and disregard for military and civilian casualties on both sides. The battle is taken to include the Hollish siege of the city-state of Dissimulo, the battle inside the city, and the 8th Coalition’s counter-offensive which eventually trapped and destroyed the Hollish Sixth and Seventh Armies. Total casualties for both sides are estimated to be over nine million. As a result of the battle, the Hollish suffered roughly 5 million casualties, 1/3 of their strength on the Western Front, as well as a huge amount of supplies and equipment. The Hollish forces were never able to recover from this loss and were eventually forced into a long retreat out of the West, ending the twenty year phase of Hollish Imperalism. For the Coalition, who also suffered great losses during the battle, the victory marked the start of the liberation of the West leading to eventual victory over Hollisland in 1903.”
