Title: Tales of conquest and exploration Mbuij Mayi!
Post by: Belgian on 01 July 2011, 06:08:29 PM

Hi, here's a preview of a monthly (or quarterly) journal I will be releasing involving the British struggle to conquer and colonize the lost African kingdom of Mbuij Mayi! Not sure about the release date of the first journal but I will post a link on this topic when the journal is ready to be downloaded. Has somebody experience with sharing PDF online?  ::)

The first edition will contain:

- A cultural study of the Turi
- Plans for a Mungo-Victoriana railway!
- British fortifications in Mbuij Mayi
- In search of Miss Alison
- Battle of Bakangou, the first bloody encounter with the Piayle pirates
- The 15th Ironclad regiment
- News from the Mbuij Mayian Colonies!

A sneak peak at the first 2 pages

The first edition will exist out of 7 pages!

I hope you like the initiative.

VERY nice. I am looking forward to the release. I just love to browse through things like that. And I really like the effort that goes into creating stuff like that.

It looks very promising, like an updated and expanded form of Don Featherstone's journals from his Colonial campaigns. I'd certainly be interested in a pdf.
