The current Eagle Standard logo

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.

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.

The Eagle Standard releases a publication every month, and is currently on Volume VIII, Issue V.

Here are the Content Writers for the Eagle Standard, poor saps that are somehow stuck with contributing one article at least with every publication.
Augustus Lucifer:

Editor in Chief of the publication, and all around good guy.

Major Darling:

Major Darling is a writer for the Eagle Standard, heading up the Captains Cabin

Saint Nicholas:

Saint Nicholas can be found everywhere in an Eagle Standard publication, and is heavily respected by the rest of the team. Although never approach him near Christmas time. He seems very busy then.

Juvenal:

Juvenal heads up the Artists Gallery in the Eagle Standard.

AntiWarmanCake88:

A newcomer to the TWC forums (comparatively), Tweety submits reports on AARs, as well as some run-downs on the Total War mods available on the TWC site.

Capt. Fozdike:

Capt. Fozdike is a writer for the Eagle Standard, and will be found in the ETW/NTW News section from now on.

ToonTotalWar:

This Writer may be found in the Captains Cabin, happily writing away.

ultimation
