We, the ArchDesigner Syndicate, are an advanced scenario designing team for Rise of Legends, Age of Empires 3, and Age of Mythology, that through determination and teamwork, design the scenarios of tomorrow. You may have seen us frequently through signatures and other brief talk - or perhaps you have experienced some of our scenario work. But do you have questions about us? Why do we require member applications? Why are we called AS instead of ADS? (So that we don't seem like an advertising company, of course...) Why is there at least one mention of food in every single one of our forum topics? Well...

The ArchDesigner Syndicate. Designing the worlds.
Scenario design is hopefully going to play a huge role in the Rise of Legends community, as it already has done within Age of Mythology (as well as the Age of Empires 3 community... sort of...) and we wish to keep that role alive and non-noobish. We are dedicated to keeping the standard of scenario design above the levels of "put some grass down, kill a purple hippo, and go eat some cake".

Through the careful integration of skills, aid, and talent, we hope to help make the average scenario for these three games include at least more than one trigger.

Why should I join?
There are many reasons why you should join, ranging from a host of active forumers, to an amazing website and a great community. Most importantly, we hope you join for your skill and entertainment through scenario designing. Post questions and get them answered... enjoy looking at already made maps and hope their triggers hold the answer to your question. Get active and involved in the world of scenario designing. Tournaments, online meetings, as well as a few contests are occasionally hosted as well, allowing you to interact with the community on a level higher than the forums themselves.

Past projects... "AOM" and "AOE3".
We, unfortunately, with the recent release of Rise of Legends, have not yet created any scenarios for said game. However, why not examine a few of our past scenarios for other games? We have several Age of Mythology scenarios out on the internet, including
Tactics of War by Jakwarrior and Vo1ture,
Doom Lords by Reinfire
Doom Lords 2, also by Reinfire, and
Persona RPG V2 by ArchNidhogg.
One of our team's best results is The Kharlan Tournament, a top-rated scenario on AOE3H's downloads section.

For more upcoming scenarios, including, hopefully, more projects for Rise of Legends, visit our current projects page.

Staff and Admin
Staff and admin(s) help to keep our clan at its best quality. Our staff include ArchNidhogg, Jakwarrior, Reinfire, and Vo1ture. These members help to keep the forums alive and spam-free, the website up and running, and applicant scenarios marked.

I'm ready to join, but how?
Simply visit our website, look at the bottom of the home page, and find "Join us." Click on it and sumbit a sample scenario of your creation. If this scenario passes the application process, you will become an official member. Remeber, not everyone is accepted! This ensures that our team is kept at the high quality you deserve. If you wish to join, be sure to also get 10 non-spam posts at our forums.

I don't want to join.
Well, it is your choice (at least for now... mwa ha ha ha...). Please visit our site and forums, if you have the time. We are sure you will find it interesting, especially if you are into Rise of Legends scenario design.

The ArchDesigner Syndicate. Scenarios. Power. We have it all.
(...Seriously. We're not lying OR exaggerating. Yeah.)
