The Eagle Standard is a TWC publication that focuses primarily on the Total War aspect of the forum. Its many features include, interviews with modding teams, previews of up and coming modifications, TW fansite reviews, editorials, AAR submissions, AAR reviews, coverage of the various modding contests on the TWC, TW related announcements, modding tools spotlights, TW forum reports and monthly Picture of the Week round-ups.

Since 2005, '''[https://www.twcenter.net/forums/content.php?126-eagle-standard_1 The Eagle Standard]''' has been the go-to place for anyone looking to get the latest modification reviews and in-depth [[Total War]] articles.
  
The Eagle Standard is not to be confused with the Helios, which is another newspaper published every fortnight for TWC, but is primarily concerned with the happenings in the forum, as opposed to the Total War games.

It produces:

- previews, reviews and retrospectives of TW games

- reviews and retrospectives of modifications for TW games

- interviews with TWC modders
 +
- articles relating to all aspects of the TWC Modding Awards; and

- articles and interviews connected to other TW-related projects based here at [[TWC]].
  
The Eagle Standard used to release a publication every month, and was previously on Volume X, Issue VI. The latest articles can be found [http://www.twcenter.net/forums/content.php?126-eagle-standard_1 here].

If ranting and raving about the latest developments in the Total War world is something you do; if reviewing modifications such as the Last Great War and the Third Age: Total War or interviewing the most well-known modders sounds like your cup of tea, then why not give it a go? No need to worry that your English or writing skills may not be up to the task, we're happy to provide help and plenty of guidance.
