About General Brewster

General Brewster from the Netherlands registered on July 6th, 2011, due to interest in BREW. He became a citizen on August 9th 2012. Having initially followed the site to check up some modifications for Rome Total War, he quickly moved on to follow the The Great War Mod for Napoleon Total War. Which eventually made him join the forum. Not too long after, Gen. Brewster, as he often calls himself, joined the modding team as a researcher. It didn't take long before he moved on and started to learn how to mod the Warscape engine himself and how to develop mods of his own.

The first project would become the now terminated project of adding the middle eastern campaign to TGW for NTW. Eventually Brewster entered the development team for WW2:Sandstorm. Whilst learning essential skills there Brewster found that he was severely lacking in knowledge on how to edit the DB(database) files. On a late European night near the end of summer Brewster PM'ed Bethencourt. Someone known for his excellent DB work with the question of he could teach him. Faith had it that Benthencourt was preparing to go on a holiday that same night. However, the always friendly Bethencourt made some time for the General and he spend the hours he had teaching Brewster on how to correctly edit the DB files. After Bethencourt's return from his vacation Brewster would spend many evening behind his PC, staying up until the early mornings chatting with Bethencourt on what to do and how to improve.

After some time had passed Brewster finally was certain that he could tackle creating a major conversion mod. As such V1650 was born. Brewster's largest and to date most downloaded mod. Set in 1650 the mod start just before the first Anglo-Dutch War(1652). It's aim is to assert Dutch dominance around the world. With General Brewster being a proud Dutchman it was obvious that this mod would be his piece the resistance!

Curial Activities

After becoming a citizen (on August 9th 2012) it soon became clear that Gen. Brewster had the desire to run for Curial Office. After some initial setbacks he gained entry into the Cdec, followed by an appointment to the CCT, election to the post of Censor, Magistrate and to top it all off Brewster was elected to the Curial Chair as Curator.

Consilium de Civitate

Brewster first entered the Cdec as a replacement for a resigning councilor. Having been a runner up in a Cdec election just before the resignation made him the candidate to become a Cdec member. Brewster's first "elected" appointment for Curial office came in 2012 on December 29th. The election was invalidated because their were only three applicants, Brewster being one of them was thus automatically assured a seat in the council. This would spur a further four terms as Cdec member eventually earning Brewster the silver Cdec medal. Brewster played a part in many citizen applications, always looking for the good in people and being particularly forgiving to people who had better their behavior to try and become citizen.

Elections in order of date: One, two, three, four, five.

CCT

Not too long after joining the Cdec Gen. Brewster was made a member of the Curial Community Team on January 20th 2013. Sadly Brewster remembers little of this time and thus it could not be recorded for his wiki page.

Censor

After the Cdec was abolished Brewster took a hiatus from TWC. Personal reasons made it that Brewster was rarely seen on TWC anymore. Eventually when some time freed up, Brew returned to TWC and as he did, returned to the Curia also. Now without a CdeC to serve in Brewster applied to become a Censor. Brewster was elected on November 25th 2016, marking his return in Curial Office for the first time since the abolishment of the CdeC on XXX.

Magistrate

One of the offices General Brewster had always been willing to serve in, but never got elected to was the office of Magistrate. After his to date, final stint as Censor and having lost a election to become Curator. Brewster decided to give the office of Magistrate another go. Brewster got elected to the office of magistrate on April 23rd 2017. Sadly, Brewster only served a month in this capacity before he was elected as Curator. Brewster resigned having not had the possibility to work on a case. This remains one of his ambitions to date.
