Gwrtheyrn Annwn

An 18 year-old British board member, from north Wales, who joined in January 2015. Gwrtheyrn Annwn has been most active in the Shared Worlds forum, but has also written 5 TLs as well as making several maps. Ankh Von Hapsburg also has a love for Austria and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, with all of his TLs featuring Austria. He has also played as Austria or a variation on that theme in many of the Nation Games or Moderated Gamse he has played. In 2017, however, he changed his user name from Ankh von Habsburg to Gwrtheyrn Annwn and shifted his interests to Wales and Welsh history.


Timelines

The Golden Dragon of Wales: A Glyndwr Rebellion TL - A TL detailing the rise of an independent Wales in the 15th century after a successful rebellion by Owain Glyndwr. It remains ongoing.

For the Want of a King TL: Prussia loses the War of Austrian Succession - A timeline that beings with the Prussian defeat at the Battle of Mollwitz, before expanding into the resulting battle between the Austrians and French for mastery of Europe. Following the French defeat the Great European War focus has shifted to colonialism, with Emperor of Greater India appearing as a guest writer on India. It has since ended.

The Eagle Never Fails TL: Prussia loses the War of Austrian Succession - The predecessor of the above TL. This was short-lived and is unfinished.

Christianity, Commerce and Civilisation: A Scramble for Africa TL - A timeline of an alternate Scramble for Africa based around Doctor Livingstone's three principals of colonisation. This was short-lived and is unfinished.

Treaty of Amiens: A different Versailles - A timeline based around an alternate World War I, this was done as a collaboration with lukedalton and AussieHawker. This is dead and unfinished.

Shared Worlds Projects

Glories of Eden: A Scramble for Africa NG - The Turtledove nominated Gloris of Eden, is Gwrtheyrn Annwn's most recent nation game and the most successful, possibly even holding the record for longest running nation game, in terms of turns played.

CNG: Broken Mirror Chapter 2: After the Fallout - This was the first Nation Game run by Gwrtheyrn Annwn and, to-date and was inspired by Fenwick's Broken Mirror and was designed as a sequel.

1100 Map Game - This was, undoubtedly, the longest lasting map game by Gwrtheyrn Annwn. It was inspired by Upvoteanthology's 1490 Map Game that Gwrtheyrn Annwn had previously participated in. The game eventually died due to arguing between PiratePartyist and Richter von Manhofen as well as the lack of a map for the last turn.

The Game of Dynasties - The Game of Dynasties was basically a standard collaborative world making game, but with a twist. In it the players created dynasties instead of nations. The world making part of this map game was completed. There was a standard map game planned to follow on from this but it died after only one turn by Don.
