This poll is to determine a few questions that have been plauging us in the details of running the game.

Chapter III will most likely stay to the 3 month pattern

William is the king of Holland/England
Charles II is the king of spain

Made my choice, but forgot to vote for one turn per year!

I voted 2 turns per year. I think that's the best choice.

I'm again the death of William next turn. I made my game tactics on it, and when he gets killed I can simply start over again (ie. I can just as well quit the game)

Wouldn't the death of Charles result in the 'War of Spanish Succession'?

I voted to keep all the deaths historical and for 2 turns per year. At 2 turns, Willem and Charles will boths still get a little more time, and it'll help the game move along a bit faster.

My High School education is working!
Oh ya.

Anyway, using my limited (17th Century, Sengoku Jidai, WW1) experience, I would say that if you've got alot of people then 2 turns would be more efficient than 4 turns per year.

Just a comment on the 'historical!.

The Interactive starts with a historical startiong point; what follows leaves 'real' history. It has to be feasible, but does not have to stick to the fact.

In our case everybody knows when a 'historical' person dies. So it is no surprise and this is certainly not historical.

For example: If my strategy bases on the fact that Wiliam will die in three years, than this is very unrealistic. Death should come as a surprise.

Next turn ain't a surprise either :laugh4:

We said before the game started that William would die in 1702

About the death: DoH could throw a dice. This would be most historically!

What my established pollicy was I would start throwing the dice 2 turns before the historical death (except for Charles who is to close to the start date) and then have a 1/3 chance that they would die each year.

The results 2 turns per year
Charles and William survive (well Charles dies next turn but you get the point he didn't die this turn.)
