I'm happy to be able to announce that the new clan that will be getting a Stronghold in an upcoming release will be ... the Ratlings. And no, for those of you wondering, I'm not the one that counted the votes! Our Fan Club guy, Andy, had that honor.

Andy reports that a few non-Assembly members tried to sneak in votes, but he foiled their plans, and only counted votes from those of you who are members of our august assemblage. And for those of you who tried to sneak in more than one vote, this isn't Chicago of old, and our motto is not "vote early, vote often" Your votes were all only counted once, thank you very much.

My furry little buddies weighed in with 40% of the total vote, with the Bloodspeakers coming in second at 30% and the Seppun and Goblins trailing at 20% and 10% respectively. Look for the Ratling Stronghold to be appearing in a release coming to you in 2000.

Thanks very much to everyone who participated, and look for more votes in upcoming issues.
