16 Days…

Medieval_Knight01Countdown to THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death Going Active on Indiegogo.com!!!

In Addition, Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction Teaser Reel Now Available on “Videos” page!!!

As of today – Dec 30th – there are 16 days before THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death goes active on Indiegogo.com. That’s when all of you who have supported the project up to this time and been “Liking” our page over on Facebook, please pledge and spread the word!!! That’s the key to our success in getting this project both funded & completed & this is one that needs to be completed. It bespeaks of – hopefully – a new era in entertainment. Knowing history as we do, we also know there is no more entertaining drama than to be found in the annals of the human trek throughout world history...

Our friends (& friend of the site Adam Bednar) in 5/Kp Großdeutschland has teamed up with some of their Ukrainian friends in producing this short about the Ukrainian Independence movement during the Second World War. It’s not a story widely known in the West, but Josef Stalin starved out (by best estimates) nearly 4 million Ukrainians in the late 1930’s due to Ukrainian recalcitrance & reluctance to submit to Josef Stalin’s iron fist. The independence movement was strong and – as Operation Barbarossa  unfolded during the summer of 1941) thousands upon thousands of independent-minded Ukrainians flocked to the advancing German Wehrmacht as liberators...

“Achtung – Panzer!!!!’

In the immortal name of Heinz Guderian’s epic, revolutionary tome echo on as we find Erfolg! Tres bien! ¡Èxito!-  Success!!! Day before yesterday we met with Mr. Allan Cors of Chaffee Associates out at their Tank Farm/Restoration Center in Nokesville, VA. Suffice it to say they’ve got just about every armored vehicle you could ever think of ever needing: Shermans, Lee/Grants, M-3’s, BMP’s, T-72’s, British

Looking for A Few Good Men…

The Banner Standard of The Teutonic Brigade of Knights

The Banner Standard of The Teutonic Brigade of Knights

Yes – that’s right! We’re looking for a few good men who care about seeing THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death make it to the screen to be “Ambassadors of Goodwill by Special Arrangement” (if you will) to the public at large. In a perfect world, we’re looking for a select group from (at least) three major countries (that have expressed interest so far), that being the United States, Great Britain, & Germany. Email us here quarterdeckent@yahoo.com or send us a Tweet @dutchmn007 or msg us on our Facebook page. We’ll take care of the rest...

THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death Buzz Continues to Build!!!

Stunning Development:

Yesterday was contacted by a family member from former Teutonic Knight Großmeister Ludolf Koënig, who served as Großmeister from 1342 – 1345.  He provided his bona fides (verified) and was cautiously interested to know more about the project, which I layed out to him  in detail (members of The Order  and their families are – understandably – very discreet individuals). I explained how this project is different from your usual (below) average Hollywood “costume drama” (Executive Production Designer Sir Brick Price’s words) and how the script gets down to what is the essence of a knight: services to others, defense of the helpless & those in need, and service & obedience to ...

Medieval_Knight01THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death Approaches 1300 Likes on Facebook!!!!

Interest continues to build about QuarterDeck Production Corp’s premier production, THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death. Our Facebook page has been generating a lot of interest from around the world, most specifically from here in the U.S, Great Britain, & (of course) Germany. The interest is understandable; not much has been done on the Teutonic Knights ever. The Knights Templar have received much more media coverage over the years. Well, let’s see if we can’t put that right...

Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction One Sheet

Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction One Sheet

Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction is now on Facebook – ck it out & share!!! Meant to get it up earlier but as THE MARSCHER LORDS:Brotherhood or Death was taking up all of our time, hadn’t quite got around to it. But it’s there now. Profiles for the first 15 episodes. You’ll see who/what/ & how? Going to be a bit different than some of the fare normally seen on The Military Channel, for example. Having watched so many of these shows there are so many that are excellent, but somehow some of the really good stories & histories never get told. That’s the gap we’re going to fill with Masters of War: Soldiers of Distinction; unfettered, not overproduced, not “politically correct” in any sense of the term...

Christmas Time is Here!!! & Random Musings…IMG_20131127_093003-1

As heretofore stated, all QuarterDeck Production Corp projects have already been formed as their own individual corporations by our wonderful CFO Ruby Emerald Diamond. We have budgets for all but are in the process of tailoring a few of them since each one is unique in its own right. Looking forward to what Sir Brick Price can do not only on  Scorched Earth: The Other Side of World War II  but also for  All the Iron Men :  Welcome to Heaven Boys,  We’ve already Served Our Time in Hell.   And then there’s  Order of the Valiant:  T...
