Ealhmund of Kent -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The (Click link for more info and facts about 784) 784 entry of the (Click link for more info and facts about Anglo-Saxon Chronicle) Anglo-Saxon Chronicle mentions Ealhmund as the father of (King of Wessex whose military victories made Wessex the most powerful kingdom in England (died in 839)) Egbert, but this is uncertain.
Ealhmund probably became king following the death of (Click link for more info and facts about Egbert II) Egbert II around the year (Click link for more info and facts about 784) 784.
A charter of 784 survives, in which Ealhmund granted land to the (The superior of an abbey of monks) Abbot of (Click link for more info and facts about Reculver) Reculver.
Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1981, Micropaedia, Vol III, p803, Egbert: "The son of Ealhmund, King in Kent in 784 and 786, Egbert was a member of a family that had formerly held the West Saxon kingship."
Under the year 825 the Chronicle states that in his eastern conquests Egbert recovered what had been the rightful property of his kin.
The father of Egbert was called Ealhmund, and we find an Ealhmund, king in Kent, mentioned in a charter dated 784, who is identified with Egbert's father in a late addition to the Chronicle under the date 784.
It is possible, however, that the Chronicle in 825 refers to some claim through Ine of Wessex from whose brother Ingeld Egbert was descended.

He has been associated with Ealhmund, the father of the famous EGBERT of Wessex - if this is so, then we know that he was descended from Ingeld, the brother of INE.
Ealhmund was, however, deposed by OFFA of Mercia when he invaded Kent in 764.
Ealhmund was almost certainly killed, and Kent came directly under Offa's rule until the revolution of EADBERT PRAEN in 796.
The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that "the Mercians and the inhabitants of Kent fought at Otford" in 776.
The outcome was not recorded; it was traditionally interpreted as a Mercian victory, but Stenton noted that there is no evidence that Offa exercised any authority over Kent during the years that immediately followed the battle, and a charter from 784 mentions only a Kentish king named Ealhmund.
This, according to Stenton, indicates the possibility that the Mercians were in fact defeated at Otford, but in any case Offa was certainly exercising authority over Kent by 785, and Mercian control lasted until 796, the year of Offa's death, when a rebellion under Eadbert Praen was temporarily successful in regaining Kentish independence.
Egbert's father Ealhmund is not otherwise identified in any source from the ninth century, but it has been frequently noted that there was a king of Kent of that name (ruling ca.
The argument that Ealhmund was a king of Kent (and therefore not of the West Saxon dynasty) is not a good one, for the Kentish monarchy was very unstable during the entire period, and had a succession of kings that were either of obscure origin, or were princes from foreign dynasties.
If Ealhmund had been an exiled West Saxon prince seeking his fortune in the turbulent Kentish politics of the time, naming his son after the king of Kent might be a politically astute move, even if there were no genealogical reason for doing so.
Ealhmund, Subregulus of Kent succeeded to the title of Subregulus Ealhmund of Kent circa 784.

I've been a Templar player for about two years and I just love the GK models so, put two and two together, and viola! Anyways, rant over, here's the list:

Blast templates are weak against troops in normal formation, but against deep striking troops and skimmers (such as Dark Eldar Raiders/Ravagers) they're
