23-04-02 - 07:12 - It CAN'T be back, CAN IT? - Sambar

Muahaha! All hail the news script! *bows to Peppe* That's right, it's your rambunctious C-G Sambar here again, broadcasting news to those lucky few who check this site occasionally and aren't actually in the clan. Though Zephyr, Westwolf, Lews, Aurian, Woman, and High Lord Kram have been brightening #calhar for some time now, and recruitment has long since been halted, they still deserve an official welcome here. Huzzah for the noobs! (sorry Aurian and Kram ;)) The HotA tourney, while rather disastrous for the clan, provided a good training ground for the recruits. With KOA4, the balefire tourney, the summer HotA tourney, 6 hour tourney, and SaC cit 2-day tourney coming up, we'll soon see whether the young apprentices are ready to take on the jedi masters :} With Wolfenstein proving to be less long-lived than Wheel of Time, a game almost 2 years its senior, Bringer has turned his energy from storming the beach to creating a swathe of new maps, and this combined with several SaC servers has allowed more training - more EFFECTIVE training - to go ahead. So thanks to Lews and the {censored!} brothers =) I could tell you about the maps, but then I'd have to kill you. Finally, the entire WoT community has decided to proclaim us Greatest Clan Ever, in honour of our dedication, fair play, loyalty, and sense of fun! YAY! OK, that was a lie, it was just me. But a proclaimation from the Commander of the Fjesing Armies is just as good as anything those people could come up with ;) Sambar out

22-04-02 - 12:48 - News Script - Peppe

The news script is back!

26-00-02 - 17:21 - Sallying forth into the New Year -

SaC has made something of a comeback this last month, with increased activity thanks to the Heroes of the Ages Tournament, and the recruiting of a swathe of hitherto clanless fighters. Elandria is our newest member, an EQ player with an attitude, who we hope to see more of in #calhar! Voting on two more applicants is now underway. This should ensure we never have insufficient players for a match again... Talmanes has become a force to be reckoned with though he has been with us only a short time under the tutelage of the cavalier Carnifex. Icestorm has returned from overseas to his hometown of Mackay, Oz, and will soon discover the difference that playing from here makes ;) Shadowkiller has demonstrated all the right attributes for a Recruitment Officer, and has taken over the role that Carnifex once managed (although there are few things that need improvement!). As far as the tourney goes, we are now in Week 2, our first match against C13 a loss, and our game tomorrow against S'A in outposts. The following week we have a bye. A friendly match has been scheduled against FUBAR. January, it seems, is the month of birthdays. Congratulations Bringer, Manhammer, and Kalief. The next one to watch out for, I believe, is Naroar's, on the 15th of February. Give him some birthday fireballs from me ;) That leads me to the matter of my imminent absence. A whole lot of things have gone wrong, money has dribbled away, and I will be losing internet access from home for the next 6 months or so. Shen an Calhar will continue to prosper in Bringer and Carnifex's capable hands, I have no doubt. Peppe has worked hard and reliably to maintain all things that fall under the programmer's jurisdiction, and now we have Shadowkiller for PR and recruitment. I'm gonna miss you =) CARAI SHEN AN CALHAR! Sambar out

03-00-02 - 18:59 - 2002 -

Happy New Year all...from the clan born back in 1999. I can't believe I'm not sick of it yet! *plays D for Dream, forcing him to cap 12 times in order to win the game* Ooooooh yeaaahhhhh ;) In other news, the rules for the HotA tourney have been better defined; Trenn's tourney is going slowly, as {?} has challenged HotH but they are 3 matches behind, and it may be a while before we play our next match (probably a good thing as Ratatoski and Five haven't been seen for a while). Did I mention there's a new clan called Siswaiaman which fancies itself as elite and has treacherously enticed several people who should know better than to betray their previous clans? But that is a rant for another day ;) Bringer is still hanging out in Byron, I am finally back in Sydney, Kalief will be returning shortly to the evil wastelands of the North, and Ice will not be back online until sometime around Australia Day (if you don't know when that is, look it up ;) Have a great holidays everyone, what's left of them :} Sambar out

26-11-01 - 23:36 - SaC is strengthened... -

...with a victory over SS'T and the acquisition of SmokiE (which doubles our Finnish contingent (woohoo!). A challenge issued to AL for the 27th went undefended as their members were unavailable for that date. We shall meet them at a later date. Battle report from the SS'T match is as follows: (23/12/01)Kalief, Dream and Carnifex triumphed today over the evil forces of the Sons of Shai'tan, represented by Satyr, the Black Knight, and Nakiga. For now the banner of the red hand flies proudly over the defeated ruins of their citadel. Yeah! In the first game, played on outposts (SaC was Aes Sedai), four seals were claimed after 22 minutes by our intrepid warriors, Kalief with the highest kills (17) and Kalief/Dream (?) capping. The Black Knight wins the award for highest ping (1355) while Carns was the lowest (98). In the second game, details provided by Carnifex are as follows: 'I didn't get a screenie. We lost. Don't know how.' Erm...congrats SS'T! lol. We think Satyr capped. Maybe :} In the third game, on Bone Orchard, as Aes sedai once more, SaC was victorious after 46 minutes, Satyr with highest score (11) and Dream/Kalief capping one each. Everyone's pings appeared below 250. Reportedly it was a fair and challenging series of games, kudos to SS'T and...CARAI SHEN AN CALHAR =) Sambar out

20-11-01 - 16:04 - New Members Ahoy! -

Huzzah, Hooray, Congratulations and Carai Shen an Calhar to our newest recruits Shadowkiller and Icestorm. There can be no greater honour than to wear the tag of the glorious Band of the Red Hand! Meanwhile we find ourselves enrolled in another tourney (of Guardian's) that begins in January. I hope some of our military men are still hanging around for the event...in any case, we should take advantage of them being home for the holidays and bump up our activity *crosses fingers* =) Have a merry Christmas and a happy New Year, faithful warriors! Sambar out

03-10-01 - 13:22 - Peppe plays in Clan match! -

Wow, 3 updates in one day! But how could I resist announcing to the world that [SaC]Peppe graced the servers today, representing his clan against the evil BoD (who were supposed to play D't, but it was a no show) and getting more kills than me =) Kalief, Carnifex, Peppe, and yours truly battled until time expired against the heinous Jasin, Cinderhead, GedtheReal, Link, and some Noogie guy. The map was sands, we were whitecloaks, finished 2 seals all with Kalief a couple of steps away from our altar. Highlights: Me fireballing Carn; Peppe fireballing me; Kalief fireballing Peppe; Carn complaining about lag (lol)...ahem, ok the real highlight was just having 4 SaCs on a team, it's pretty special whenever that happens, no matter how often (or how scarcely, hehehe) Sambar out

03-10-01 - 10:00 - Oh yeah, and... -

Maybe I should do a REAL update ;) SaC is 2 years and a few months old now, we'e gotten a little quieter in our old age but haven't been tossed off the family cliff as yet ;) Our fearless leader al'Gibbur is still in the army, Sandman is on a boat somewhere learning...err...navy type stuff, and Kalief is home on a couple days leave but he'll disappear shortly back to the frozen wastelands of the far north to stand guard duty in -17 degrees! Some of our original members we see rarely, but they seem to still be alive. Bjaer is working too hard as always and married now, and GestuR pops his head up occasionally. Manhammer sneaks around out there - we see only his silvery shadow as he posts ;) And where did Naroar go??? =) Others will always be #calhar junkies...Sorbet plays Starcraft, KarRL plays Counterstrike, Bringer plays Return to Castle Wolfenstein. We all owe the latter our thanks for snapping up shenancalhar.org and fixing our spiffy new email accounts. Also thanks to Peppe for all his hard work changing it all over! Ryoga, Angel, Zeech, and Carnifex can also be seen in our most illustrious of chat rooms. With an upcoming tourney - the Great Hunt - I've tried to enthuse them about playing, but the walrus never checks the forums, zeech is preoccupied with his yummysam, and carnifex is off fighting for justice and the American way, which leaves Angel, me, and The New Guy, Talmanes, to represent us in Trennik's last ditch effort to squeeze some interest and possibly even matches from the community ;) Then there are the junkies who aren't in the clan. Jair, Rille, and Fivedays. It's always fun to have visitors that aren't just there because of an imminent clan match, hehehe. And if Chanserv misses Thom, Arindelle, Lan and Ratatoski, it has not complained so far ;) Anyway, I've rambled on long enough. Lil Carnifex is demanding his breakfast. You can hear what he has to say about the matter here: http://www.angelfire.com/in2/thebadger/lil_carnifex2.wav heeh Carai Shen an Calhar, and Sambar out

03-10-01 - 09:29 - Woohoo! -

Peppe fixed my lil scriiipt, yay yay yay Oh yeah, and we have a new member...Talmanes. Weeeeeeee

22-06-01 - 00:50 - New Members and the Second Breaking - Sambar

I go, I come back, NO-ONE UPDATES THE SITE!!! Well, Scandinavia rocked, and I return home to find us in the middle of The Second Breaking Tournament, where we are in the same division as 4R, AL, BoD and one of the BT teams. So far we're doing rather mediocrely, but it was a pleasure to play today with Sandman, Kalief and Bringer; just like old times :) Not that we dont love our new members! CARNIFEX - the younger brother of the enigmatic Bringer of Death and crazy American in his own right (put that bf down!) LIONESS - Stalked by Carnifex until she agreed to join, never seen her in cit but we hope to drag her out of Arena at some stage RYOGA - About time we got some benefits of old clans breaking up! The Finn (or Walrus as he likes to be known), previously synonymous with TTO, is a welcome addition to the ranks Til next time Sambar (also C-G!) out

09-05-01 - 15:46 - Our Fearless Leader and Lord of Dreams take leave - Sambar

Time for these two to be sucked into the real world (military service) for a while, may they walk in the Light and return to us when they can. Thank you Gibbur for this wonderful group of friends you brought together...thanks Dream for being a part of it and for kicking lots of ass on SaC's behalf :) Sambar out

01-06-01 - 23:40 - WE ARE RECRUITING AGAIN! - Sorbet

Good news from the ever glorious headquarter of the band of the red hand (also known as SaC!) WE ARE RECRUITING, WE WANT YOU!!! Now go to the forum (under the Forum link), sign up, and make a post saying. "I'M NEW, I WANTS0R TO JOINS0R!!" Sorbet Tha lurking Captain-General Shen an Calhar HQ

14-03-01 - 18:15 - Match against AL - Sambar

Thanks AL for a great match! All games were completely fair and hard-fought. First game Bone2, we were hounds and lost 3 seals to 1. Second game, same map, we were aes and won 4 seals to 0 (that's the game I didn't play in! rofl). Final game was Outposts 2, we were forsaken and lost 3 seals to 1. JOLLY GOOD GAMES! Sambar out

11-02-01 - 02:08 - Out with WotW, on with friendlies! - Sambar

After another loss to CotL in the WotW tourney, SaC has dropped out, neglecting to rebel in an attempt to stay in. Pure speculation on my behalf would suggest that the clans we faced in that tourney used too much ww for the games to be much fun, and that even with 7th as allies we couldn't come out on top. *shrugs* On Saturday our tourney team, who at least had quite a bit of practice playing together during WotW, faced up against a HotH team consisting of two hunters, a Twit and a former canary. Wins were all for us. Thanks to Trennik for organising it, and a big kick in the butt for Jair who didn't turn up ;) A challenge to C13 is pending, and possibly one against CD. Stay tuned! Sambar out

24-01-01 - 15:06 - WotW tourney ...and Dyret arrives - Sambar

SaC snuck into this tourney after the WB quit, and it grows smaller as various clans (Gray men, Legends) take their leave of it, but we've seen quite a bit of action thanks to the efforts of Kalief, Manhammer, and Bringer, who seem to have everything in hand :) Wins over MK have seen us knocking at the door to their capital, and losses to CotL have seen them knocking at the door to ours. A challenge to BT has just been posted. 7th has finally answered our call for alliance - in the positive, and that Old Man Nero played alongside Dream, Hammer and Kalief in our last match :) All goes reasonably well so far :) In other news, no-one except Kalief turned up for a match against the Herons (ahem canaries). OOPS! And welcome to our newest member Dyret (another Norwegian! THEY'RE EVERYWHERE! ;). Since I don't recall Angel getting her name up here when she joined, welcome Angel as well ;) Carai Shen an Calhar :) Sambar out

06-00-01 - 16:20 - SaC is victorious over SoL...in citadel :) - Sambar

Today, for the first time in ages, SaC's best team marched onto the battlefield - al'Gibbur, Sandman, Kalief and Manhammer. And they did not disappoint. SoL is an arena clan, yet they are no pushover under any circumstances. Both games (played in Outposts and Heresy) were won by SaC, 3-1 in the first and 4-0 in the second game. Thanks Laman for setting it up (sorry about the mix up of weekends) and to Rampant, Braden and Lucipher for the gg's. Hope you enjoyed the rare opportunity to see Gibbur using something other than balefire ;) Quote of the day comes from Sandman our Capping God: 'Best player on outpost was the myrdraal who shot me in mid air :)' hehehe I'll be looking over my shoulder next time I play arena ;) Sambar out

06-00-01 - 14:44 - Informal game with a few Fog Men last week - Sambar

Things are starting to Happen with a capital H in the Shen an Calhar camp. Now occupying former Wolfbrother territory in the WotW tourney, a match with MK looms on the horizon. Also, it has been almost a year since SaC and BT played the first WoT clan match ever and we are looking to turn the tables on them this time in an Anniversary Match to be held on the 13th of January. In an informal game played against the newly formed clan Mashadar, fears that they are the next elite clan have evaporated like...well...fog on a hot summer's day! A reputedly hilarious but highly lagged and crazily confusing game finished with 3 seals to SaC and 1 to Mashadar (and it was said to be hovering over Bringer's head when the time ran out). Hurrah for Kalief, Bringer, KarRL and our Fearless Leader al'Gibbur... and also for the M players Carnage, Macbeth, Balwen and Masangar. Love ya Pinkie...nice try ;) A practice match against SoL is currently in progress...stay tuned for the results! Sambar out

05-11-00 - 12:16 - Outcome of HotH match - Feldar

The friendly match against HotH ended in victory for SaC! See the Battles section for additional information, including screenshots

04-10-00- x:xx - Mandragoran added - Sorbet

Added Mandragoran to the member list. Another proud member of the Shen an Calhar.

15-09-00-07:45 - Script test - Sambar

It's been more than a year since the creation of Shen an Calhar,a nd here we are, better than ever, the oldest clan of the WoT community and the one with the greatest banner ;) As you can see, we've ma the move to WoTClans, thanks to Daehawk, Feldar and Peppe for the smooth transition. In recent news, SaC has been ousted from the Seal Tourney... our final seal was lost to 4R. Good luck to them going up against 7th and G. We've missed out on Hoof's WoT at War tourney, but stay tuned for practice matches. Sambar out

28-06-00 - 23:35 - 2:nd ss from LL match - al'Gibbur

Ok, I've now updated the battle section with the 2:nd SaC vs LL screenshot. I've also made some minor changes to the battle section. Over and out. /al'Gibbur

28-06-00 - 22:24 - Match against LL - Sorbet

The battle against Lost Legion of Manetheren was a glorious victory for Shen an Calhar! The first two games were played some time ago, and today the third game was played... Outcome was victory to Shen an Calhar with 2 victories and 1 tied match. Look in the 'Battles' section for details.

31-05-00 - 01:10 - Deafeat against the Gray Men, upcoming match... - Feldar

The battle against the Gray Men unfortunately ended in defeat, but don't despair! Instead, be sure to train hard for a possible upcoming match against the Lost Legions of Manetheren! (See the forum (in the Community section) for details)

09-04-00 - 00:29 - Match against SS'T - Feldar

The battle against Sons of Shai'tan was a glorious victory for Shen an Calhar! In both rounds the lowly darkfriends were beaten to the ground. Look in the 'Battles' section for details.

18-03-00 - 12:10 - Finally were a real WoT-clan! - B Jaric

Its two months since the last update, but now finally its time for update again. Earlier we had about 75 members in Shen an Calhar, but after a check of who still want to be in the clan we now down at 22. The new list of members are online, and please take a look at it so that everything is right. Shen an Calhar are from now at war with the two Dark One following clans, The Sons of Shai'tan and The Servants of Lolth. I hope everyone in the clan join us in the hunting of these clans! The light burn them! See you soon at the forum and at IRC! Jaric

20-01-00 - 00:05 - Better late than never =) - C-G al'Gibbur

I'm very sorry for this huge lack of updates, I've been very very busy and very very lazy. Lots of things has happened since the last update, it has been christmas and we've entered a new year. Lots of new wot programs has been released, among them are: 333 patch, 333b patch, servercon program, THUMB program and tons of new maps. We've also played our first official clan match against The Black Tower, they defeated us with 2-1 in matches, screen shots are available at the battle page. Gestur and I arranged a wot lan for the Swedish members of the clan, www.calhar.dhs.org/lan, everything went well, unfortunately a dedicated wot server was way more system demandig than I thought, this caused a modem ping on the 4on4 citadel server (PII 233, 97Mb). Therefor we played arena 4-5 players. We also played lots of counter strike, which was quite fun. We'll try to fix a switch and a better server to the next LAN. As usual we've got some new members, they should have been welcomed long time ago but... anyway, welcome: Like ter a'Heydran Pevin Alaria Darkwolf Will al'Seen Cal'en Tal' Vareeem Marco Fain BowHunter Kalief badgeratease Mandy Thalandor Adman haplo Puttloser NaNUK Sorbet Jaric propheCy Reul cgm3 increaser Moridin Morpheus waylander Belisarius Nathan Bael Ar'Jodesh Rand Cairdazar The joining period is now over, people will still be able to become members but they'll have to talk with me first. In the near future I'll make a research to sort out inactive members. We've been very inactive for a while, so I'll try to fix some matches for the weekend (officiall or practice), Post a note in our forum if you can play. If we don't find any clan to play we should atleast play some training matches. Especially since I've now submitted us to the seal tournament at wotclans.com. If you've got any good tips/strategies please send me a mail and I'll update the members only section. Salish has left the clan =(, I want to thank him for starting up this clan and running it. You've done a great job and you are welcome back =) This means I'm MG (Marshal General) for [SaC] We're now officiall supporters of the upcoming mod: Shadowed Destiny And last, the usual reminder: All members shuld join the #calhar channel on gamesnet when they're online. And don't forget to use the [SaC] prefix when playig Later..., al'Gibbur

02-09-99 - 23:16 - A bunch of updates - C-G al'Gibbur

Now I've made the changes Feldar has talked about for a very long time =). I've deleted the community link and replaced it with a forum link. The BB links under community are moved to the links page. And if you click on the forum link you'll find some info about our clan forum and IRC. Also, on the rank page I've added a list of the banners and the people in them. We've also got some new members, so I'd like to say welcome to: Sambar Lifesbane Malekith Bringer of Death Slanter suBlime BTW, There were a litte problem with the news so I'll try to explain what happend. First Salish made a news post with the topic "Forming the firs banner", then he added anoter news with the same topic but the content of forming the second banner. Well Feldar thought he fixed it but he deleted the news with content of the second banner and renamed the correct first banner post to "Forming the second banner" It's fixed know but we lost Salish news about the second banner.
