Hundreds of years passed by....
Since that humiliating defeat of our people.
We have seen many deaths.
Brave warriors, killed by cold blade of our foes.
We have seen our king killed. Kingdom crumbling into thousands of tiny pieces.
We have seen the foreign leader, sitting on the kings chair as if it is hers.
We shall see it no more.
Years and years may have passed.
Many may not even remember.
But as long as the proud blood runs in our vein.
We know.
Beefdom is alive.
We know.
Beefdom will rise. It will rise once more.
-Old man, humming the song of revenge to the kids near by.
Welcome to the large game, Beefdom shall rise once more.
Except the limited people who took part in the Noble Sons I or II, you won't know what is happening in this parallel world of Beefdom.
So allow me to set the scene.
Previously on Beefdom
Noble sons I
There once was a big kingdom called Beefdom. Created by King Beefy.
Beefdom was the regional super power. Probably the closest to being the master of the world.
But then King Beefy died (Gasp!)
His sons fought each other to claim the title of King of Beefdom.
There was couple of interesting events like "White_eyes" but eventually Yoyoma became the supreme king of Beefdom.
Noble Sons II
Despite Yoyoma claiming the title of King, Beefdom and her army was not as strong as she used to be.
Other major powers like the Hungry Khaans (Khaanate Pizzaguy), Republic of Buranda (Captain Blackadder) and the principality of Decapodia (Quintus J Cicero... Where did you go?:embarassed:)
After some big and small conflicts, king of Beefdom seemed to have regained its power, by forcing consulate Lacy of Consulate of Yaks Cheese and Liquors to mary her. However, King Yoyoma was backstabbed by Consulate Lacy. Beefdom crumbles and the hagemony of Consulate, Hungry Khaans and its allies began. Ignore the silly Beefys ambition of world domination with Godzilas. It was prevented by brave heroes of the land.
Thats about it. Lots of other events is still unsaid. Those who wants to know the full detail, please find the gaming thread and read it your self. Despite it being a epic failure of a game, both the host and most players had heaps of fun out of that game.
Anyhow... This is how the world is like now.
So Beefdom collapsed, and the land was united under Consulate Lacy (YLC :yes:) and other notable members of the new alliance.
The island adopted a Roman Republic like government, where two consulate is elected with other influential members supporting the consulates.
Its peaceful alright. But the rebellion is on air in some regions. Those who inherit the noble blood of Beefdom, is plotting to take over the land. And it seems that he is a member of the council of nobles.
Here is what the setting is going to be.
Each players are going to be playing as the members of council of nobles.
-Feel free to name your character, and the region they represent when you sign up. (Eg, Lord Beefy of the Taraba Mountains)
-If you want to go for a extreme, you can even write a bit of history of your land and make a flag for your region.
-One of you are going to play the Master Mind. The man behind the rebellion efforts. This role works like a God Father role in God Father Mafia Series.
- Master mind may choose any two players they wish to work with. Who will serve you as traitors.
- Both traitors has one kill per night.
- If both traitors are dead, Master Mind can kill too.
- If Master Mind is lynched, Mafia team will lose instantly
- If the Master Mind is lynched within the first three turns, traitors will go back to townies, and the new God Father will be chosen.
This is so that we can have longer and more enjoyable game. I hope the original mafia will have a good run though.
- New features. Army strength system
- All player will start with the army strength of 1
- Army strength can be used for many purposes.
-To vote. Each army strength will grant the player 1 vote. If you had 5 then you get to vote 5 times.
-To war. Players may attack other players with their army. If the attackers have more numbers then the defenders,
the defenders will lose their army (Thus not having votes), and the leading attacker will gain the army strength defenders had.
- Players who is attacked without points will be killed. Just like vigilante killed.
-To join war. Players may combine their army strength by sending orders like Join: Yoyomas army to fight El Diablo + 1.
+1 representing how many army strength you wish to spend
Failure to organize the orders will result in your army not doing anything for the night.
- To defend others. Send in orders to Defend: Shlin + 1 Again, +1 representing the army strength you wish to spend
- To kill. For the mafias to kill, they need to have same or higher points then their target.
So if their target had higher points then mafias strength, they will be saved.
Master Mind, may lend out his points to one of his men without getting him self in risk
- If no orders are sent in, the army will automatically protect you. Wise move in the early game.
- Army strength of the lynched and killed player will be up on the vote.
This will be done in a NotW manner of items. I will explain those in the first day phase
- You may give army strengths to other players. Except the Consul and Dictator extra army strengths.
Just pm me with who you want to give it to and how many.
Complex enough? It gets even better :laugh4:
-Consulate election
-At the beginning of the game, election will be held.
-Two players with the highest vote will gain the title of Consul.
-Consul will get 4 extra army strengths, which will be taken away from them when they leave the office.
- However, if one player gets more then 3/4 of the votes, He will become dictator and will get 9 extra army strengths.
- When one of the consulate is killed, lynched or resigns, election will be held.
- To resign, the consulate must post something along the line of Resign: Beefy.
-And the basics
- There will be day and night phases, each being 24 hours long
- Townie role pm will be posted on public. But do not quote and share anything which could wreck the game. Especially pms from the host
- All write ups are done by the host. Unless the mafia or lynched players really really wants to write it.
- Again. 1 Mastermind (God Father) and 2 Traitors (Grunts). No other unique roles or victory conditions.
- If any changes are made in the rule, I will post it in the second post of this thread. So please check that regularly.
Asked Questions
-
Feel free to ask me any questions. I will answer them on thread, and will post the answer on the asked questions on the first post of the thread.

Rules update
Regarding dead players army strength
For example
Please Vote: Beefy for Imperators Army to go to your self, and Vote: Beefy for Spamdooms army to go to your self.
Also I received a question regarding consulates being attacked.
If Consulate for example has 6 army strengths and uses 3 to attack one player, uses 3 to protect him self.
And if someone else with others combines attack the consulate with 4 army strength.
Since 4 army strength of the consulate belongs to the whole community, as soon as he can't afford that 4, he will lose the office of the consulate.
The attacker will get the 3 army strength used for protection, and get to keep it.
If the defeated consulate will have to give back many army strength as possible back to the community, and the lacking army strength will be newly drafted.
If that makes sense.

i have a question though... since practically every player can vigi kill the chance that one of the mafia gets vigikilled is quite big (bigger than usual) sooo... how will the mafia don and his grunts be protected from those vigi kills?

Good question. I was considering to giving the dons extra protection, but since I'll be revealing all the faction strength if vig attack fails it will make them look suspicious. So I can't give them any extra.
All the war will be on the write up. So if I was to attack pever, it will say "Army of Beefy attacked the Army of Lord pevergreen"
If it was random attack, then you'd be expected to be questioned in public.
Ofcause, attacking without putting a protection on your self is risky.
And as long as you have some army on you protecting, the initial attack won't kill you.

im thinking about it... maybe an option of retreat? or of hiding? so you can chose to defend (and maybe killing attackers) or attack (and maybe kill defenders and a player) or hide (kill no one but not get killed either)

Hey! what?

It looks best for someone to continuously attack someone to build up their strength, as in a lot of vig killing.

:clown:
@ TS
Then everyone would just hide. But the defence killing the offender may be a good idea.
Well seeing as mafia gets seperate kill and other various army strength ability, grunts could defend the God Father with it.
@Methos
But remember that all the attacks and faction strengths will be on public.
Mafia will take the same tactic, so any attack full stop will look scummy unless they have everyones support.

Mainly because it is almost identical to Holy Bovine Empire.

Important Announcement
I've got 21 players right now. 22 including Secura, plus minus a few since I can't count :clown:
Important thing is that, unless I suddenly get a mass boost in numbers getting me up to 30, this is how its going to be.
God Father system, 3 mafias with one head -> Classical Mafia, 2 mafias
Army strength system and other systems will remain as the same, as I'm interested to see how things go.... yeesh your all my cute little guinea pig :curtain:
So just keep that in mind :bow:
Pms will be going out starting in 24 hours. Until then, sign up is still open.
When the game starts, it will start with a day.
Sign up to this game or you die.
Seriously, Beefy is awesome and his games are awesome, if you don't sign up, you will miss out on the awesome.
Questions:
1) When a traitor night kill a townie, does he get the townie's armies?
2) Can a traitor both attack and night kill during the same night?
Beefy187
05-23-2010, 04:39
1. Yes. everything townie can do, traitor can do the same.
2. Same as above. Otherwise, townie will easily have a winning strategy.

Night 0 summery
Old man, Yu chang is the host of the Noble Council.
Normally he is just an old man, lurking in the palace, but when there is no Consulate he becomes the boss.
He liked that bit of attention every now and then.
And he certainly liked the Espionage officer reporting to him instead of the Consulates. Even the news wasn't too pleasant..
"What? Rebellious movements in Beefdom? Any information on them?"
"All the spies who attempted to infiltrate them is either deceased or lucky to come back alive. When we were getting ready to infiltrate them in mass and real, they went underground. No sign of them since.. but we certainly don't like that. We might have a massive rebellion on our gates. However apparently few of the members in the council may have connection to the rebellion"
"Looks like we need to hurry with the election"
.................................................................................................... ..
Yu Chang called a meeting and the lords and leaders from various regions gathered up in one place.
At the beginning he announced the possible rebellion and a possibility that few of them may be a traitor.
Then he finished with these words.
"Even though there may be traitors amongst us, election of Consulate is inevitable. Troubling time is when we need strong leadership the most. I trust you wise leaders to look with your clear eyes and minds. And differentiate those who we can trust and those we can't."
Old Man Yu Chang, retreated to his quarters, and the members began to discuss who to elect, and also who to lynch.

Please, people of the Holy Bovine Empire, do not cast your vote upon a man who's campaign is built upon empty promises and smoke and mirrors. The position of Consul is one of great responsibility, and requires one to think of your fellow man, and not abuse the position for ones own personal gain.

I want to be elected so I can help my fellow men, and will keep my books open so that others can see my intentions are pure. The influence I gain will be put towards insuring the safety of the people - I will make no offensive maneuvers unless it is the will of the council. That is, and how it should be.
Your pour words like sweet honey in my ear, but how do I tell if these words are not woven in poison? You claim to act on behalf of the people, a noble cause indeed, but what of those who wish to defect from the Holy Bovine Empire, will you be persuaded by their requests?

Are you professing that the interests of this council are inherently against the good of the people, Stefan? I should hope that is not what your insinuating - for then your retort would take on an entirely new meaning.
But to satisfy you, no, I would not bow to the secessionists, the rebels. Their wish is to restore the Kingship of Beefdom, a decidedly theocratic and authoritarian regime, and topple the Holy Bovine Empire, which is decidedly republican and freethinking in its character. These insurgents are thus not altruistic in their intentions, but rather selfish and think nothing of the consequences of their actions to the people.
Such people will never find sanctuary with me.

It is interesting how my loyalty is questioned as such, I only inquired as to allow you to explain your position further. There is no need to relitiate against me, brother, we are more civilised than to degrade ourselves to petty bickering. We are honourable representations of this glorious empire, comrades in arms against the greater threats.

Yu Chang was listening to the discussion, with intensity.
Everything he heard was new and he could feel the new age right at the door step.
He have never heard of leaders who can talk about touchy matters of "balls" at such important meeting. And he was astonished by the leaders who can discuss it with straight face and seriousness. Then he shook his head and said no.. That was just him trying to interpret matters in a good way. He was assured by the quality discussion at the later stage.
At the end, two man with high reputations. Duke Nukem Von Subotan, and Khaan Pizzaguy of the Hungry Khanate. Each with a fearsome reputation in battlefield, council and in bed, was chosen as the Consulate of the alliance.
Two men received the Consulates army and sworn to defeat the Beefdoms rebellions with their iron fist.... and Cannon Balls.

Night 1 summery
Summer of Spamdoom is hot..
Steamy air of 41 degrees, took a direct hit on Lord Strangers Palace.
"Where is my maids! Make them bring the Giant Fan so I can think something which isn't along the line of 'curse you gods for making my land so hot'
Lord Strangers best man had no doubt that even if he called in the maids, he'll still be thinking about something 'hot... and steamy even' but nevertheless he called in the maids.
"Aahie! Uilwie! Sabrina! Paula! Fan him!!" he said. And the maids rushed off, leaving one.
"What are you doing? You too!"
"But sir. You didn't call my name. Its Olga. I'm new here. Nice to meet you. Good bye" said the girl, as she left the room.
"New girls these days...."
.................................................................................................... ...............................
"Rally them up Sergeant! Go on! Cross Bows here! Long Bowman here! Swords man and spear man protect our artillery! Run boys! Run!!!"
Imperator Maellrick of the Latinate Peoples had every rights to shout at the slow soldiers. These freshmen may not know who they are dealing with, but Maellrick and the Vets knew exactly who their enemy was. And how fearsome he is.
https://img224.imageshack.us/img224/9751/mabinogi20080704002pl1.jpg
Dark black armor which looks like a skull. Long and heavy sword that hardly anyone could even lift. Fearsome and intimidating looks.
Chaos Knight has arrived in this land. Alone. His intention unknown. But most likely not friendly.
Latinate Peoples are skilled warriors. Men who got their reputation on the field of battle. But even those men who fought hundred of battles were shaking in fear as Chaos Knight slowly approached their battle formation. Heading straight for the Imperator.
Chaos Knight stopped at the distance of 100 meters away. Lifting up his sword pointing straight at the Imperator. Then mimed cutting the head off.
"He wishes the Imperator dead!! Blasphemy!! Prepare for battle men! Shoot him up! Thrust him! Thrust him million times!!"
Latinates commenced their war cries, while Chaos Knight dropped his Shield. He opened up his left palm and started to charge up some mystic green sparking fire ball. He slowly lined up his arm and prepared to fire...... And....
The Imperator Dropped dead on the ground... Silence took over the battle field....Then chaos.
Chaos Knight fleed the Battle Field slightly confused. But this achievement will add another glorious legend to his name... Surely some poorly informed few will claim that Chaos Knight was the man responsible for the murder of the Imperator. He was planning to kill him anyway.
As for Imperators man, they quickly examined the Imperators body and found out that the cause of death is a direct head shot of cross bow bolt. Bolt on the back of his head.
It seemed that Beefdom rebels has arrived on the scene and performed this miraculous shot. Then quickly left before anyone can deal them a harsh punishment.
.................................................................................................... ................
On the other side of the world, crows covered the sky. Hoping to get a good piece of fresh human meat.
While they were not cannibals, Hungry Khaan too were hungry for blood. Sounds of agony and the voice of dying humans.
https://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb225/askthepizzaguy/EPYC/HungryKhanateFlagSmall.png
They march with dread. On the very front as if they want to be the first to kill and first to die in the battle field, while the Consulate army nervously follows.
When they met their foes, Khaan Pizzaguy went up to the front of the battle line and adressed his man.
"Man of the Khanate! Real man!! And those who followed us... Do not think us barbaric. For this is a holy war. Holy War for the good of the Holy Bovine Empire. For the good of the whole lot! Today we slay those we think are to be traitors!"
Thunderous roars from the Khanate force. Small cheer from the Consulate army.
"Now man. March! March! Don't give them opportunity to think or play smart! March! March and Fight!"
So they marched... Or rather galloped on the horses and the Consulates marched.
.................................................................................................... ..........................................
On the other side of the battlefield, there was the pever brigade. Utterly confused.
When Sergeant pevergreen came out to the front, peverbrown, peverpurple, peverblue and various other supporting staff came out too, and formed a human Pyramid so pevergreen can climb to the top and adress his man.
http://www.cartoonstock.com/lowres/mst0015l.jpg
"Look guys! I don't know what those khanates are smoking! But they seem to think we are baddies. But no Bru! We aren't! We are just bunch of good warriors who likes a bit of footy and drinking. Is drinking illegal? No!! Is playing AFL or Rugby League illegal? I don't think so! But those foolish men who can't drink until 20 and plays American Football wants to fight us anyway. So lets fight then! Let them have a taste of real men. Let em have it boys!"
When he finished the speech, Steppe riders was already within their arrow range. But pever brigade was quick to get them self organized.
"out numbered? Pfft... we're used to this anyway. RAWR!"
.................................................................................................... ..........
Battle was hanging on balance. Both Khanate soldiers and pever brigade was equal on valour. But just as the pever brigade was starting to take the upper hand, slightly less motivate consulate soldiers arrived with the God Chief Khan Pizzaguy. Khanate used their numbers well and surrounded the pever brigade, forcing their surrender.
pever brigade had a option to fight till the last men, but decided that this battle was not worth shedding too much blood. So he chose to live on and appeal his innocence in the Council.
Hungry Khanate now has a Army strength of 6. pever brigade loses their army strength along with the ability to vote

Two orders. Both alike in dignity.
In fair Suiriene where we lay our scene.
From similar names break to new mutiny
where honorable men makes honorable mens hands unclean
Why those two orders fight you ask?
Its for the beautiful lady of cause
While this scene is no better then Shakespear.
Their love for Suiriene surpasses the love of Romeo and Juliet.
"Move you scum bags! Move!!"
"You move! We were here first!!"
Knights... What is a knight?
It is nor hand, nor foot, nor arm, nor face, nor any other part belonging to a man. Oh, what's in a Knight?
They call them selves honorable. But when faced by something irresistible, they show their true nature.
Knight. They are just like all other men. Just with thicker armor to hide their true emotion.
Then what is a king?
They are knights with a thicker armor. And a right to go for the better target.
Stefan Vi Brittania and Lord Dimitri was in a middle of a chess game... Like good noble men.
But they both seem to lack concentration on the game it self. But rather concentrated to the battle out side the chess board.
"Pitiful isn't it.. Those men. Just because they are in the land of Beauty, they think they belong in it. Or even can form relation with it." said Stefan.
"Look at your men Stefan. They are so manly! Look, that men over there is taking his armor off! Now their cloths! While they may not be true knights, they are definitely true men!"
"Oh please Dimitri. I never knew you had such obsession to naked men. You should've told me. I could set up a arrangement with my men ; Count Jeremiah over there if you want. Or even...."
"No thank you Stefan. I already have a beautiful lady who I dearly love and I'm meeting her today.....Check."
"Oh what a coincidence Dimitri! Me too! I shall bid you good luck."
"Good luck to you too... Might I ask who you have in mind?"
"A Lady... A Queen actually."
"How pleasant! I did hear that the Queen of the 'Round Table'... you know that pub around the corner, is very pretty. But good for her! A Noble men as her partner!"
"No I did have a different lady in mind. Wait a second.. You actually went to the pub to check her out? Well do you know? When trying to find out whom one likes, the person tends to name the person they like... So Lord Dimitri... I interpret that you rather like the Queen of the 'Round Table'."
"Hah... No the lady I like is..."
"Stefan vi Brittania of Albion. Lord Dimitri of the Order of Chickens. It is a honour to welcome you and your men to our land. What can I do for you fine Noble men?"
Both Stefan and Dimitri saw the lady number of times in the council. But she is always surrounded by her maids and walls.
So practically this was the first encounter with the real Maharani Meera.
Legend says that who ever sees Maharani Meera directly in her eyes will instantly fall in love.
But from both Stefan and Dimitris point of view, legend is far not enough to describe how beautiful Maharani Meera is.
You start with her face. Then her golden valley. Legs, hip, then the Golden valley. Face again, her hair (smooth as silk). Finally noticing the rich perfume. Knock out. Noticing her rather thin clothing and the slight contour of her body which can be seen underneath. Gulp. Gulp. Then her eyes... Vacuum... It catches you and never lets you go... Drooooooooool.
"Lords. Unfortunately my girls have left to protect our noble friend Pinman. If only they were here, they could've made a very good friend with your men.. But fortunately for you Lords.. You have me." said the Maharani. Smiling at the two silly faces still knocked out.
Come in my Lords... Oh dear me!! Did I say this is the first time I let a men enter my castle?"
Gulp.
.................................................................................................... ...................................................
Gulp.
Pinman and his man too where gulping as the beautiful angels arrived to their land and gave a salute.
They quickly organized them selves into protective formation, denying any invaders.
Pinman sighed and said to his best men...
"I've seen many diamonds and jewelries. Fortunes every men dreamed of. But today I realized those are worthless... Oh real beauty.. I wonder how beautiful the Maharani is..."
.................................................................................................... ....................................................
"A chute! Sorry my lords.. Some one must've been talking about me."
"Bless you" "Bless you"
The two Knights looked at each other and glared.

"You okay my friend? Have some water"
"Yes thank you... Thank you hundred times."
Perhaps its true. Under difficult circumstances and tough condition, humans beings learn to cooperate.
Unlike those Knights :no:
Personal army of Pinman and the men of North Puce was heading for the desert palace of the Great Sands.
For 40kms they marched through the blowing sands and burning heat. With little food and water left.
People of North Puce seem to have changed their opinion on Pinmans private army. They were no longer Rich snobs. But instead they were their role model.
And Pinmans army too have learned the warmth of the people living in country side and nature. And they swore to donate some money on North Puce when this journey was over.
When they finally arrived to the castle, they cheered and hugged each other. Sheikh Al-A- This came out of the palace and hosted a gorgeous banquet for all to enjoy. Endless laughter continued through out the night as the soldiers from three different countries came together.

Close.....
Consulate Subotan dropped his ears on the ground attempted to see how close their army was.
Few hours ago, his large army did bit of pillaging in order to get their attention.
Fortunately they took the bait.
Army of the Swiss Mongols, lead by king Warman him self arrived at the scene.
"Go get em!"
Suddenly Subotan and his man was all over the Swiss Mongols.
Swiss pikemans attempted to block their paths as the steppe riders shot their arrows, but what can a sheep do against Lions?
Subotan led the charge. Easily knocking down two Swiss Pikemans. And from there they made their entry.
King Warman, known for his strategic talent could not do anything against a ambush... By a army who had 5 times as more men.
"Glory to our Duke!!"

...............................................................
Lord Blackadder surprised Judge Spl1t as he sent his entire force to his land.
"Are you here to kill me?" asked Spl1t. "Then get into the line... I know plenty of people who is after our head."
Commanding officer of Blackadders army took out a letter from Lord Blackadder and started to read.
"Dear Judge. While many despises your judging ability. I know deep inside my heart that you are a great judge. I respect you. We respect you. And the Empire needs your service. My army is there to keep you safe from any harm. Hail Spl1t!!"
Spl1t gave a shudder and headed back to his house. No body saw tears running down his face.

Yu Chang was the first to be notified of both two murders.
He quickly rallied all the council members and told them what happened.
Imperator Maellrick of the Latinate peoples and Lord Stranger of Spamdoom was murdered by unknown man! Suspects for both of the cases have managed to slip away but who would do something like this? If it is Beefdom then we have to fear.. For they now have the ability to even kill one of the 20 odd influential figures on this land.

Just incase you were confused.
Mafia gets both mafia ability and town ability.
For the mafia to kill they don't have to spend their army strength. They just need to have it higher then its target.
Also especially for your consulates, you may use multiple abilities. Like "Two to guard your self, Two to attack, two to protect"
If you don't specify that I'll assume that your using all your army strengths on that one movement. You will be open for other players attack and mafia kills.

I'd be more concerned about Imperator Maellrick and Lord Stranger's mistreatment. Interesting how you focus on what is obviously the righteous judgment of your elected Consul, not your fellow leaders being murdered.
But that is not to say there isn't room for improvement. Last night's attempted defenses obviously didn't work, and the failure was mine and mine alone. As such, I am willing to step down as Consul today should the majority of you wish it. However I believe I have devised a better plan, one that is more likely to succeed, for tonight's maneuvers.
In the meantime, this is still a mafia game, and I believe that I cannot trust in the judgment of one known as Lord Sausage, of the much vaunted Hotdog Kingdom.

Lord Sausage's post comes off as overreacting, as if he is personally offended by the Consul's actions.

So then you would propose we sit here like sheep and wait to be slaughtered? The two men are not even dead, they were simply removed of their armies and their vote. The council is not rendered toothless by the Consul's actions, my take on the matter is that you are afraid that the next target will be you.

I did not vote to put 2 men into office who actively remove other peoples voices. Not ONLY is this against the very reason this Council exists, but by removing weight from one mans argument, you undermine the efforts of those present to find those who would usurp this Kingdom.
You, the Consuls, do not need more manpower, nor do you need to take it from others without giving it back. Your vote carries enough weight, and your actions only make those removed from power easy targets.

I should think they should go back to their owners. Can I ask how your opinion and that of the Chaos Knights is to be more highly valued? The Chaos Knight himself attacked Maellrick, showing he is willing to be an aggressor despite the current situations. You would egg him on by giving him his undeserving spoils?

In Eastern North Puce, we want people to express their opinions, and threat of execution helps to cause that.
Legate Casimir, I would love to be able to return the strength of Spamdoom and the Latinate peoples to their normal rulers. Regrettably, their leaders are dead, murdered by those who wish to see Beefdom return. But you make a valid point about the Chaos Knight (Unvote armies to Chaotix).

Make no mistake, Sheikh Al-A, i have great respect for the opinions of the Khan and Von Subo. I simply do not like a situation where we have two individuals who each have six times as many armies as the rest of us, no matter who they are. 6 armies are too many for me to trust to any one ruler. Another option would be for them to give command of the armies they seized last night to others whom they consider trustworthy, such as yourself. A situation at the end of the day where they each command 5 armies, their own and the consular, and 4 other individuals each command two seems reasonable to me.
I agree with such a plan - if Von Subo, and Pizza khaan are indeed not the rebellious leaders, then dispersing the armies amongst us will only hamper the the rebellions progress (OOC: Look at the rules, it will work). If they want to kill anyone, they will need a greater army strength then 1, meaning they will have to attack, and reveal themselves!
If we make the consularship rotational, and have the consoles strictly defend others instead of attacking, then we can eventually, despite losses, bring a proper stalemate inwhich they will either reveal themselves, or be forever stripped of power.

I would have the Consuls be specific about what they are to do with these captured armies.
I can only speak for the Khanate.
Half of the armies that are under my control will be used for defense of other realms from now on. The other half will be used for searching for the enemy.
(OOC: Half Doctor, Half Vigilante)
When others have had enough of my leadership, the main armies of the Consulate will be returned to the people.
Last night, you may have noticed that many, numerous realms were defended by friends of the Consulate. I have figured out the flaw in this system, and that is: too many leaders were involved in the defense; in fact it is forced that the traitors of beefdom were among them and would obviously avoid at least two of the defenses. That was the best I could do under those circumstances. With slightly more power under my control, I should be able to personally defend one or two realms from destruction. Because of this, there will be a higher chance of success.
I do not shy away from aggressive methods either. Unfortunately master Warman simply does not know how to behave himself or contribute positively when I am around (in any realm...) and it was a forced move. At least now those armies will be put to good use. As for pevergreen, it seemed as good a place to start as any. And of course, the Consul Subotan now wields more might with which to administer justice.
These are the sorts of moves which will raise eyebrows and cause grumbling. I understand this, but if we are to determine who are the traitors among us, this active path is the one I have decided makes the most sense. Cooperation with the Consuls on this is optional as always.
Askthepizzaguy
05-29-2010, 19:39
I'll follow that proposal up with the most logical move:
Vote: all the armies defeated by the traitors to go to the Khaan
My pledge is that each of those armies will be used to defend one random person until my death, even after I am no longer the Consul. Under my watch, I can guarantee they aren't being used by the traitors for offense.
I imagine I won't get much support for this, but it is the correct move.

I can appreciate your point of view, but you do realize that your rather egalitarian plan of spreading the armies around keeps us locked in a strategic position similar to the start of the war, with the traitors among us likely to be able to overpower any given target with ease, because they will constantly be gaining strength.
The plan I propose guarantees that there will be armies defending others.... you can even see who I am defending in the public report, so you will know they are being used correctly.
There's a reason the Consulate has extra armies... it is for the precise reason that representatives of the people be able to overpower the traitors. Collectivism, not decentralization, is the only way.

If Consulate for example has 6 army strengths and uses 3 to attack one player, uses 3 to protect him self.
And if someone else with others combines attack the consulate with 4 army strength.
Since 4 army strength of the consulate belongs to the whole community, as soon as he can't afford that 4, he will lose the office of the consulate.
The attacker will get the 3 army strength used for protection, and get to keep it.
If the defeated consulate will have to give back many army strength as possible back to the community, and the lacking army strength will be newly drafted.
If that makes sense.

Furthermore, there is one issue I wish to discuss. Khan PizzaGuy (ATPG) has spoken of a "term" for the Consuls, yet we have not be given any time frame for this "term". I am wary of leaders who vow to serve the people but who instead hold their nation by the throat, getting increasingly powerful for the sake of defeating an enemy and finally promising to step down once the crisis is resolved. Except that "crisis" is a rather broad term and I fear that when the Consuls will finally declare this crisis over, they will become the new enemy, for no one will be strong enough to force them to step down. As such, I wish to impose a time limitation of "5 turns" on the term of every Consuls elected. If they desire to remain Consul, then they can run to reelection. Every Consul not submitting to this process should be considered a traitor."
Ha!
Better to be one committed to his own honorable battlefield skill than a whining, effeminate bureaucrat who sits on his pedestal complaining about the way his filet mignon was cooked or how Baroness Such-and-Such looked at him the wrong way.

Secondly, I received your missive yesterday requesting help to protect one Maharani Meera, but the said missive also mentioned that I could work alone if I preferred. Thus I told my soldiers to stay in their barracks, keep polishing their halberds and protect me. This may not be what you'd like to hear Consul Pizzaguy but that's the truth. Hey, I am a selfish bastard, what can you do?

Fellow Lords we are in dire circumstances a traitor walks amongst us however in dealing with the traitor we must make sure not to lose what it is that makes us great our freedom. What we need is a man willing to give up power when need be. I say that we should give the power to the consols but not to the men currently in the posistion. It is the posistion itself that should gain the power and all men who hold the role shall at their end of their terms be froced to give up whatever armies they have gained beyond the norm and give them to the defence of the realm as a whole.

That's all right. At least you're not freaking out in private and proposing really, really insane strategies to people. After only one turn of play, no less.
I am stunned, by the way. You know who you are. If you go through with it, I will have lost so much faith in you guys that I will probably just remain silent and undefended for the rest of the game.
I feel like unloading a massive tirade against you, but I feel if you came up with such a plan so soon, based on nothing, then logic will never reach you, and my breath would be wasted on you.
Khaan, for the benefit of all, I will have to ask you to reveal whom these schemers are. By being silent, you possibly put the republic, and us, in danger.
Askthepizzaguy
05-30-2010, 19:34
Frankly, if the people who heard about the plan are remaining silent, I'm just as disappointed in them. I prefer to let them sit in their own shame for a while.
Khaan, I do not think this is a time to be spiteful. If this legitimately puts others lives at risk, then it must be revealed.

The only person's life that would be in jeopardy would be the Consul's. And I will state for the record, I am not wasting 6 armies just to cover myself, as that is a horrendously inefficient use of resources.
Once more, all I can do is publicly shame those involved. To counter their plan renders me ineffective as a Consul, and it's not worth it. I may as well just step down after this vote is over. That is the only other thing I can do. And I may just do so, because I am that disgusted.
unvote; Vote: Beskar as requested by Legate Casimir.
I also want to add that I am not one of the said schemers. I was barricaded all day in my castle, afraid that the Khaan's armies would come to get me. My good wife and my two faithful dogs can testify on this.
However I am curious about these schemers, and as Casimir, would like to hear more about this.

The only way to deal with a misbehaving innocent is to point out the error of their ways and pray they see sanity. I won't drag the man to the gallows for making a mistake, even if it is a horrendous one. What's worse is that if he were to implement his plan, I could actually defeat his and his conspirator's armies and end up becoming the very dictator he fears.
Talk about a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Subo, not even RL would usually distract you from your mafia games! (OT: I plan to start the hard work myself tomorrow)
As for the army divides, I'm at odds with the whole thing now that the power of the Consuls is uneven. Subo, you need to take the reigns a bit more; it's Pizza that's doing all of the thinking.
I personally thought concentrating power to the consuls was a terrible idea. Too much concentrated power. I like Khaan Pizzaguy for wisdom he has shown on many occasions, but what is the point in this council if we surrender our armies and power to a tyrant. It would really be foolish, especially if resulted in the Khaan being a Beefdom loyalist as well.
Non-Game version:
I personally thought the consuls getting armies was a bad idea. Too much concentrated power. I like ATPG for example, but what is the point in playing if we all ended up like pevergreen or equalivant, due to being so weak and worthless. It would doubly suck if it turned out ATPG was mafia too.

Surely a high powered Consul prevents bickering and divisions. We need to remain a united force in order to keep the mafia at bay.

Day 2 summery
While Autolycus got popular target for votes, Council quickly decided to not lynch everyone tonight.
However what divided the council was whether or not to give the consulate more power or to spread the power.
On one side, there was the consulates. Who were also accused of unexplained action against Sergeant pevergreen of the pever brigade and King Warman of the Swiss Mongols, wanting more men power to continue their quest of rebel hunting.
And on the other side, there was Legate Casimir and Stefan Vi Brittania. Who claimed that power concentrated to a few leads to tyranny, and that is not what this community wishes.
After a heated discussion, Hungry Khanate and Legate Casimir recieved a extra army each.
Council members headed off to their respectable lands, leaving slight grudge...

As they depreive our members of their abilities to defend themselves, putting us in their mercy? In how our consuls, with increased power, can over-rule any decision we cast?
Together, Duke Von Subotan and Khaan Pizza can currently rival the power held by the members collectively together, especially as our numbers decrease and the foolish ones, sacrificing our liberty to tyranny.
As for Double A, Khaan Pizza now has the power of 7 Council members. His original forces, 4 due to being Consul, 1 ill-gained, 1 given. You need 8 consul members alone to over-rule his consulship and that is if he doesn't have any supporters. We are in danger of slipping into tyranny.
While I am sure the consul only has good intentions, I however, do not advocate tyranny in any form. Those who advocate tyranny are servants of the Beefdom, and thus should be dealt with.
Our Consuls were elected to protect the Empire, not to prey on our weakest lords, no matter how good their intentions are. They should trust the people who elected them instead of stealing their voting power. Enough of us made the point that granting too much power is dangerous if the Consul turn out to be a Beefdom partisan, so we should stop this immediately.
That said, I must leave quickly, we're still working on the barricades for tonight.
Stefan vi Britannia puts forward a new motion. I believe we should instate the following rules:
All candidates for Consul have to be nominated by some one other than themselves. They cannot be self-elected.
All matters related to the Consul shall not be based on the strength of forces.
The consuls shall a fixed term limit of two 3 rounds (3 night actions). They can be re-elected after the end of their session.
The division of armies of those lords killed should go by popular vote, where you cannot vote for yourself.
You have the name to read this motion, and in the morning, we shall vote to pass this motion! (If our host allows us to do this)

While I agree with you on the problem, Stefan, I am perplexed by your solution. Removing own votes will not create a better situation as the likely candidates would vote for unlikely candidates and we would see puzzling tallies instead of clear ones. I am also wondering what you mean with point #2 ("All matters related to the Consul shall not be based on the strength of forces.") ?
However, the term idea for Consuls has some merit and should be investigated more.
While I agree with you on the problem, Stefan, I am perplexed by your solution. Removing own votes will not create a better situation as the likely candidates would vote for unlikely candidates and we would see puzzling tallies instead of clear ones.
It is to remove self-interest, the stranglehold of a tyrants grip. By voting for other people, you are putting the councils interests first and not yourself. By instilling this in law, it means they have to convince others to vote for them. So those with greater armies cannot simply vote themselves into power, but require the will of the council to do it.
For example, Legate Casimir has the power of two. Therefore, he can simply vote for himself, and he has two votes already. On the otherhand, out of principle, I voted for Lord Dimitri or Maharani Meera, and they voted for me. I would only be tied with Legate Casimir, even though the will of this hypothetical council of 4, is that I should be the consul.
I am also wondering what you mean with point #2 ("All matters related to the Consul shall not be based on the strength of forces.") ?
[The number of armies = the number of votes. The Consuls are given four armies, thus they have 4 votes. So on decisions relating to the consul, the point means the consul's armies are not counted, thus the consul doesn't get given a +4 vote advantage. also, for example, if Subotan got killed, Pizza can give 7 votes in favour to the next consul, or even to him as dictator, before anyone else even casts a vote.]
I thought that faction strength was used only for lynch votes and that they did not influence the Consulates election nor the army distribution. You have me worried now Stefan, as I realize how much uncertainty there is around the rules of our dear Empire.

Night 2 summery
2 of the most wealthiest army met each other in Pinmans huge farmland.
"Lord Pinman of the great farmland and pasture. Your meat is what keeps us alive noble one.My Lord Cosme Etxeberria de Gasteiz y Bilbao greets you!"
Pinman greated the thankful support from his fellow merchant.
"With out your Lord, there won't be this empire. After all, it was your lord who helped Clay make those machines, which led the army of the Consulate to victory."
Soldiers entered the baracks together, and spent jolly good time.
.........................................
Both consulate had a busy season away from the Council. Consul Khan Pizzaguy sent armies to protect his friends.
.........................................
Judge Spl1t once again retrived an honour of foreign army protecting his life.
Once again, while he didn't show any expression he was really pleased by the heartful reinforcement by Consulate Pizzaguy
..........................................
Maharani Meera was expecting more men to keep her accompany. She was expecting at least one noble Lord.. But all she got was protection from Consulte Pizzaguy which was not led by Pizzaguy him self.
She sighed.. And hoped the man in her mind accepts her gift.
..........................................
Lord Sausage was surprised to recieve protection from his long time arch enemy, The Hungry Khanate. But nonetheless, he accepted the protection with much rejoice.
Lord Sausage offered Hot Dogs to the newly formed friends and in return they offered some Pizza and protection.
..............................................
Hungry Khanates men was also in Buranda.Where Lord Blackadder and his men sits tight in protective formation. Lord Blackadder was pleased by the reinforcements and developed them where he likes.
............................................
Sergeant pevergreen was one of the few who weren't as pleased to recieve a protection. He had no problem with man of Eastern North Puce, but when he heard that Hungry Khanate was also willing to offer reinforcement, he wasn't pleased at all.
After few letters insisting Khan Pizzaguy to send those men who used to serve under pevergreen for protection, Khan accepted. And at least pevergreen felt safe around those man he knew since childhood protecting his life.
............................................
Pizzaguy ordered two of his army to protect the noble land of Great Sands. Where Sheikh Al-A- This and his army was.
With three army protecting his life, Sheikh Al A THIS felt very safe.
.............................................
Stefan Vi Brittania was one of the main figures in the previous council. Where he spoke so hard against the consulate who wanted more power, and with Legate Casimir proposed alternative plan for better alliance.
While his request to gain more army failed, at least he managed to get Legate Casimir get Lord Strangers army. Prevent Consulate Subotan to get more power.
He was sitting on his couch when he heard an unexpected news.
"Dear me Lord! Army approaches are gate!!"
Stefan woke up as if his man threw him a bucket full of water.
"Friend or foe?" asked Stefan.
"I don't care my lord! I don't care if they shoot me, or burn me! As long as they step on me after words and play around with my corpse!!"
"Whos army is it?"
"Its the army of the Goddess. Maharani Meera of Suiriene! Oh lord! What shall we do?"
"Let them in."
...........
Stefan ordered a battle formation (Which his man obeyed with extremely low enthusiasm) and opened the gate.
"I am Stefan Vi Brittania of the Order of Albion. What brings you here?"
Representitive of the Suiriene stteped foward and answered.
"My lord! Suiriene expresses its gratitude for protecting our Maharani in the previous season. Maharani ordered us to protect Stefan Vi Brittania and his man with our lives."
Red faced Stefan and his man coughed and wiggled nervously. Then Stefan gave a solute.
"I thank you ladies of Suiriene.But I assure you, our army and I is quite capable of protecting our selves."
"Do not underestimate us as females. In the field of battle, we are no female. We become deadly and skillful warrior."
......................
Stefan Vi Brittania accepted the protection and orderd them to protect him.
Stefan, his captain and Suiriene captain was drinking a cup of tea in very awkwerd atmosphere.
"So how is our Queen?" asked Stefan.
"Maharani you mean?" Smiled the Suiriene captain, completely smashing both Stefan and Albion captains comfort. "She is well. She told me to pass on her message of appreciation for what you did last season and in the Council. She also said Albion and Suiriene should be closer. Much closer."
At this point, the Suiriene Captain was clearly meaning something different.But suddenly the look on her face changed and she tackled Stefan to the ground. Albion Captain drew his sword and pointed at the Suiriene Captain, but she pointed at a arrow which impaled where Stefan was sitting.
Albion Captain found the attacker and charged at him.
Attacker clicked his tongue and desperately threw couple of daggers.Hoping to hit either the Captain or Stefan. But it failed.
Attacker jumped out of the window and on his horse which were waiting right outside.
Suiriene Captain, came out with her bow and arrow. First shot missed. But she carefully aimed and took a second shot at the departing attacker.
It got him on the head, killing him on instant.
"You could've got him somewhere else. We can't interrogate a dead man..."
"No need." replied the Suiriene Captain. "Look at the Flag his wearing."

"If there is one time I would like to curse the great lady Lacy, it would be now... That man should've died long time ago..."
Legate Casimir and his army was facing a huge threat... The Chaos Knight.
No one could read what the Knight is thinking.
But they could certainly smell death which was about to come towards their way.
Chaos Knight started to charge up his mystical green power blast, while Legate Casimir ordered his man to forward.
"If my memory serves me correctly, Chaos Knight is extremely conscious about how he looks. If we can disgrace his looks, he should flee embarrassed."
So Casimir ordered his man to throw Melted Cheese on the Chaos Knight.
First Blast missed Casimir. At that point more then hundred man surrounded the Chaos Knight. All in position to throw.
They all threw cheese at the Knight, covering his black armor with melted cheese.
For few seconds, Knight didn't seem to react to any of that. He simply stood on the spot as if he didn't care.
But then he rushed off (Knocking couple of soldiers in process), while soldiers of Yonder Commonwealth cheered.
"Thank God that worked.."
Chaotix attack on YLC failed (YLC had more Army Strength)
.................................................................................................... .................
"My Lord? My lord Chaos Knight?"
Upon returning from the battle field, Chaos Knight was encountered by Consulate Subotans man who came here to protect the dreaded Knight. However, Knight rushed inside the closest hut as if he doesn't want to be seen.
Subotans man looked at each other and shuddered. They stayed out side of the hut to protect the Knight.
.................................................................................................... ...........................
Funny enough, Consulate ATPG didn't have his own man protecting him, but 2 of Subotans man instead.
This showed good relationship of trust between the two consulate.
.................................................................................................... ..........................
Messenger came to pevertopia, with a terrible news.
Man of Eastern North Puce was shocked to hear the death of their noble Lord Fernand Arsenic.
Fernand Arsenic was attacked by who seems to be Beefdom assassins. Heroicly fighting them off by him self, but eventually receiving a deathly blow in 27 places of his body.
Man of Eastern North Puce cried in grief, and swore revenge to Beefdom under a different ruler.
.................................................................................................... ............................
Once again all rulers has gathered in one place for a new meeting.
Yu Chang explained the situation.
"Once again, we received an attack from who seems to be Beefdom rebels. Attack against lord Stefan has failed, but Viscount Fernand Arsenic of Eastern North Puce was brutally murdered by Beefdom. It is clear that Beefdom rebels are still at large and we must do something about it."
Leaders started to speak up... Discussing what to do next.
Start Day 2!

Interesting that Sheikh Al-A-This of the Great Sands did not even fight the Beefy assassins that killed the Viscount. Surely after sending in orders to defend the Viscount there would have been a battle.
I received the order from you personally, Sheikh. Can you explain why you were not at your post?
This is not an accusation; obviously the forces of Beefdom rebels would not likely conspire to frame you if you were one of the Beefdom rebels. I merely wish to know why you said you would defend Viscount Arsenic, and then there was no battle when he got attacked, that's all.

Armies of the Khaan protecting me, how shocking! The report from last night is very much flawed, as I've never given an order to feed the miscreants. I want to know who is behind this mischief!
Lord Sausage is most pleased to see that the Consuls are now using their armies to protect the weak instead of stealing from them. This is indeed a big improvement. I would however appreciate if the Hungry Khanate would refrain from sending their smelly ruffians in my castle at night.
Vote: YLC
It went well last night, so I think we shouldn't give more power to anyone else but those who already have more. As it is dangerous to grant too much power to our Consuls, I will grant my vote to Legate Casimir to get a 3rd army.
I am also very pleased to hear that my friend Stefan vi Britannia survived an infamous attack from the Beefdom. Heard some funny rumor that he was protected by the Suirienes but I dismissed it quickly. Surely Stefan does not need a woman's help to fight the villains.
Stefan vi Britannia would like to thank Maharani Meera of Suiriene for her assistance, which allowed him to stand in this Council Room today. I am also interested in bringing ourselves closer together.
This Beefdom rebellion needs to be put to an end. I will personally kill any traitors when I find them.
So the rumor was true, how shocking!
As for the army, I would nominate myself. While Casimir is now protected from attacks by rebels and various scum, it seems the Beefdom attempted to assassinate the leader of the Order, myself. Equipped with another force, I shall be more protected and more able to operate in the interests of this council.

I'd prefer it if Stefani was given armies - he was attacked last night, and thus he is innocent. Unless Meera herself is also rebel scum *looks about* then we must acknowledge that we can truly place our trust in Stefani. Removing any need to protect him is vital to cover our bases even further. They had one successful attack last night, meaning either the Shiek failed in his duties, or...the Khaan, the Duke Subo, or I am a traitor. I have and will continue to observe the will of my peers, and as such subject myself to your full interrogation and judgment, if it comes.

Why yes, I do enjoy the company of a lovely Suiriene woman, but not on the battlefield... :grin:

WHAT? I have no idea why my men weren't doing as asked [OOC: this must the point where Beefy tells me he overlooked my orders last night]. I can only apologise for what has happened, Consul Khaan. Whilst I expressed my reluctance to complete the task you had given me, I had every intention of remaining loyal to the Consul. If I was truly against what you had told me to do, I would have told you directly. What reason would I have to secretly go back on my word?
Unless there is some shadowy force working against the Great Sands, I give you my word that I will do my utmost best to ensure that this does not happen again.

Fernand Arsenic did not have any armies protecting him, the reports state that he sent his army to pevertopia, whilst recieving zero protection himself. It doesn't indicate anyones guilt, though by the sounds of it, the Sheikh Al-A-This failed to send protection orders in. However, Fernand Arsenic would have still died if so.
Pizzaguy ordered two of his army to protect the noble land of Great Sands. Where Sheikh Al-A- This and his army was.
With three army protecting his life, Sheikh Al A THIS felt very safe.
[Looks like his army was protecting him, at least his army was accounted for.]

I sent direct orders to Beefy to ask him to protect Autolycus and even forwarded those orders to Pizza. I have no idea why these orders were not carried out.
EDIT: I'm really quite annoyed with this.

I agree with the rational of this post, that the Lord Stefani should be given more armies, while I expect that he should not use it merely to protect himself all the time, rather, to cooperate with the Consul's.
I am also pleased that the Consul's are showing mutual cooperation, and genuinely have the interests of those who elected them at heart, the Hungry Khaan even relinquishing all his armies temporarily for the protection of others.
Hence, I will

Although I find the case of Sheikh Al-A-This intriguing, perhaps he is not the man we are looking for.
However, I am curious as to why the Chaos Knight is rampantly attacking citizens? Perhaps he is trying to play a gambit and hoping to show that he isn't otherwise preoccupied during the night, but I doubt it as all you need for a renegade action is an overall greater base army strength. I would like to inquire as to your motives, Chaos Knight.
