Sir Saddam, the Earl of Ramsey has been given the King's Hero medal.The medal is the first one to be given, and weighs 50 gold. It will be given for game actions that could only be classified as legendary, and will for sure be labelled as such when the popular vote for that becomes available.
"The Earl of Ramsey has been
rocking stone markets. When he was building his castle (363 sqm, completed A.D. 1498), he rushed to buy the first offering of
Army stone for 250 m/stone. This convinced the Earl of Rome that his pricing was seriously flawed at 138/118. After prices jumpstarted, the administration of the game felt that it is ridiculous that half can be bought from peasants at < half the value (100 m) and that a rehaul in the generation system is in order. Things snowballed, and the Quarry1 was set up. The Earl bought a quarry with a miserably bad geology by his bad luck, but it took decades to learn about it because the code was secret. He is reportedly the first one ever to sell stone at 80 m/stone, the ones whose extraction has cost 150 m at least.
When you lose with style, it almost feels like winning

I'm not even going to the bet..."
These actions, among others, have been an integral part in keeping the game alive during the critical years around 1500-1520, and we want to express our eternal gratitude with this medal.
Note to others: comparable gameplay is required if you want to attain to this elite club, currently consisting of Saddam and me alone.
