    Well thanks for making me feel better about my age Tristan. On the other hand based on your evidence it now doesn't look likely I'm going to grow out of this!

    I'm actually a few months older than you, still being 23 myself. I guess that puts me at around the median age. Nice to know I have at least twenty years before I outgrow these games.

    Oh? I thought you said GH was older than you after he said he was turning 21? Still, I had a firm picture of you being 35 or something like that, so at least now I know I got you on the correct "side".

    I'd like to be added behind Zim in the list of people waiting for a character.

    As for the age thing, I'm 24.

    Sorry Flax, I remembered you after I posted but didn't go back and edit it. I'm assuming Cecil has the master list somewhere anyway and I'm sure you're on it!

    I do have a master list, it's on the first post if this thread, and I added TheFlax to it a week ago.

    Yeah, that should have been 'younger' . As for being 35... Fortunately we can't see each other, so I can take that as a compliment.

    If the mission to not attack Hungary has disappeared from the missions list, then it can safely be assumed that the time has expired and Hungary can once again be attacked.

    I think it's better if you move him for me and I'll take it after that. You have my permission to do so.

    My apologies for the delay in getting the turn done, there were real life complications. I'll work harder to shorten the turn-around time.

    Cecil, if I was running what you had to do every turn it'd take me a week minimum to sort everything out. You have nothing to apologize for.

    Yes, yes, but you don't have to tell him that! You'll make the guy relax and take more liberties with his time, making us all wait much longer.

    Just kidding! It's fine. I know I've been absent the last few days as well, and it won't get better until about 7 days from now. I've got some 6 pages minimum to write about historical identity and then an exam to take as well on modern history in general. A slow process through this week would thus not hurt me at all.

    Just a rules check - is Lothar allowed to recruit mercs or should he have asked the Marshall first?

    Also I assume his mercs are not to be paid for out of the Marshall's pocket (as I wouldn't have authorised them if so!)

    I just thought that being rebel, Lothar had a free run of his money... I did it already two turns back so thought I could do it again...

    Everything I bought has been paid out of Lothar's treasury... emptied to the last florin before the ransoms were paid.

    I should have noticed myself. Anyway, Lothar's been paying for them so the financing isn't an issue. Let's leave things as they are so long as Lothar and Leopold can come to an IC arrangement, and all further recruitment must follow the rule.

    Ugh, this mercenary rule is a bit annoying. I need to hire some mercs to prepare for the next Polish army, which would ordinarily be fine, except I have to move to the merc-rich province, have phonics take the save, have him hire them for me, and then take the save back and move back to Frankfurt. Seeing as Cecil in the very last post said the merc thing needed to follow the rules though, there's not really much we can do about it though.

    Honestly, I think I might just call a quick Emergency Session to change the rule, and this can be justified IC as the Kaiser wanting to save his own skin. Thoughts?

    Better to have the discussion IC but I'm afraid all I have time for is a quick post here..

    I was planning to propose some legislation around the role and powers of the marshall at the next diet session so can we wait until then for this debate? In the meantime, given the state of emergency in the reich, the prinz as marshall authorises all electors to use their own means to recruit and pay such mercenary forces as are necessary for the defence of the reich.

    Zirn is an outlaw anyway so probably we couldn't enforce the law against him anyway..

    Speaking as a GM, I can say it would be quite encouraging if someone cared enough about the game to want to go to such an extent to change the rules. However, the rule is worded vaguely enough that as long as you have Prince Leopold's permission, you don't need to have phonicsmonkey take the save to actually press the merc recruitment button.

    phonics, it sounds like you're going to make an IC post later and I encourage you to do so. That's not to say you were wrong to post what you did of course, as it was a response to GH's OOC issue. Although now that I think about it, with Heinrich's growing insanity he could start raising OOC issues in the Diet...
