Gwrtheyrn Annwn

A 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. Gwrtheyrn Annwn is interested in both Austria and Wales, especially the former before late 2017 when he changed his user name from Ankh von Habsburg to Gwrtheyrn Annwn and shifted his interests more to Wales and Welsh history.

Formerly known as ankh von hapsburg.

He is also the current overseer for the Turtledove Awards.


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 and is on its 27th chapter.

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

His subpage for his work at the SW forum is here.

Theirs But to Do or Die - A historical Nation Game set in 1852, on the cusp of the Crimean War (which was averted by player diplomacy in the first turns).

Glories of Eden: A Scramble for Africa NG - The Turtledove nominated Glories of Eden is the most successful of Gwrtheyrn Annwn's nation games, 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 was inspired by Fenwick's Broken Mirror, being designed as a sequel.

1100 Map Game - Inspired by Upvoteanthology's 1490 Map Game that Gwrtheyrn Annwn had previously participated in, thus game eventually died due to arguing between PiratePartyist and Richter von Manhofen.

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