Did anyone else see the posts that just disappeared here?
I think Rill responded to them. They linked GameOgre... |

I only talked to him once in a PM and briefly in GC but he was a nice guy and I send my condolences to his family. Rest in Peace Amroth.

Fully agree with Tora.
I did not know AA well, but my thoughts are with his friends and family.

I will also defend his cities, unless his Alliance chooses to capture them.

Looks like the siege has already been broken, but I will commit my pathetic armies to defending Amroth's cities should they come under threat again.

I am sorry and saddened to hear of Amroth's passing. He had mentioned that he was battling cancer, but I did not know to what extent. God bless him. St. George, pray for him.
On another note: I saw that one of Amroth's cities is already under seige. Is it me, or does this seem to be in bad taste? I mean, everyone here is talking about an Amroth statue. Rather than doing that, how about just leaving the cities intact? I understand that cannibalizing players' cities is a reality of the game. But this was not an ordinary player. I don't know about you guys, but I'm all for breaking that siege and defending his cities. Anyone in?

+1,000,000 I did not know Amroth the way that some have, but reading through this thread saddens me deeply that I didn't. I held back from him, largely for the same reasons that I wound up blocking St. Jude. The drama and interpersonal conflict are not something I'm into. However, that said, I've seen his contributions to new people, even up to a few days before this news broke. I've seen the care the community has for this man first hand and I know that even though I didn't know him like some, I will still miss his presence in GC and I know that he'll be missed sorely for some time to come by all who even happened to chance upon him from time to time and those that knew him well. Therefore, I echo SunStorm's rather reasonable request here, in my posting. It may only be a virtual tribute, but it's important to the community of Illyriad, to know that the game community cares for its own and can show that. Let them show it.

I've been away for a few days and although I was aware of this possibility of this news it is still upsetting and comes as a great shock.
![]() Like some others in game, Amroth and I never always saw eye to eye 100% of the time. We had as many disagreements as we had laugh and giggles but you can do that with people you have a mutual respect for. Lets face it if we all got on all of the time the game and world in general would be boring. He was a knight in shining armour to some, the harbinger of death for others. He was never slow to offer assistance or advice and never afraid to back words with actions. During my own health scare at the end of last year / start of this he was there offering encouragement and reassuring words even though he was fighting off the grim reaper himself at the time. This was the sort of person he truly was... Always there for a friend and I count him as one even though I never had the honour of meeting him in RL. Illy has lost a great player and a hell of a personality and we should all try continue his legacy as best we can.
My condolences, thoughts and prayers go out to his family and all those whose life he touched. Rest in peace my friend, I will miss you more than words can ever say. Tonight I raise my drinks to you Eternal memory. You will always be a Champion!
