Given the long history for SEGA and also Atlus, there’s a ton of fanart related to their franchises out there. Today, we’d like to share some of the work from 7AHO, an artist from Indonesia who created rather splendid artwork based on franchises from both SEGA and Atlus, in particular of Sakura Wars and Persona 4.

We’d like to thank 7AHO for giving us permission to repost the artwork here. You can view them below! For even more of 7AHO’s artwork, check out his DeviantArt page!

Valkyria Chronicles Mod For Civilization V – Principality of Gallia

InTheSky August 27, 2015 Leave a reply

The fan content love for Valkyria Chronicles continues with a mod of the PC strategy game Civlization V. The Civilization games are complex games where the player is tasked with a leading a civilization to growth and promoting its survival by managing many facets of its development, while keeping in mind such factors as the resources needed to sustain your civilization and your environment, besides the other civilizations you interact with (maybe in a not-so-friendly manner.)

The mod “Principality of Gallia” adds Gallia as a civilization choice besides the preset choices given with the base Civilization V game. As you many know, Gallia is a small, humble country with access to the ocean and rivers adding to its lushness. It’s also rich in the all-purpose mineral Ragnite, which invites The Empire’s invasion in the first Valkyria Chronicles game. In Civilization one typically manages resources and this mod adds Ragnite as a resource. Civilization games are conveyed to the player through the vantage point of a civilization leader, and the leader for Principality of Gallia is Welkin Gunther.
