Ramses is just trying to sell you his Duchy Vladimir.

Ignore him and come and join the chivalry and merriment of Brittany.

Yes, join Brittiany

Or better yet, Lorrainne

No one likes Burgundy?

Burgundy is the only sane house. Maybe that's why they ended up so powerful?

But there's no Swiss in MTWII.

I actually don't consider the ranks in chivalry or dread to have any impact on my RPing. The building blocks I started constructing Christophe on were his two less-common traits: Cruel and Cunning and Plain. The descriptions of the traits themselves are far more useful in creating a character than counting the number of skulls or helms. There are plenty of traits that give dread due to battlefield actions which would very plausibly be done by 'chivalrous' avatars as well. I think the game will be far more interesting if the characters are judging each other by their actions rather than by simply counting the chiv/dread ranks and notching a person up as good/evil. That's not how the world works.

Good points TC.

If anyone does that with me, they will have a hell of a time keeping up...because in my view they are only a guide.
