Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Would it be possible to keep the saves in .zip (as I think it mostly was)? Yes I know there are some good .rar compliant softs out there...but gosh why installing something when you have something already working fine (i talk for the windows users), the gain is meaningless anyway...
I dun mean to offend anyone of course!

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
I'd like to request to Warluster that if he gets a marriage proposal for Heidwigis von Saxony, please accept it. Heidwigis is one of the few people still related to Kaiser Heinrich by blood left.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Okae Dokey.
Shall be picking up save soon, will do all the House Armie Moves/etc, then shall end turn!

Actually GH, Hans, Elberhard and Arnold are grandsons of Heinrich and Wolfgang Hummel and Jens Hummel are great-grandsons. The blood line is also carried on if Karl Zirn has any kids with Leopold's daughter. All the others are adoptees or children of adoptees.
I know what you mean though, I wish Otto had some kids to carry on your blood line, though who knows what unholy terror a von Kassel/Heinrich hybrid would have been. Now it's just Steffens and a Salier in Bavaria.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
The command you are looking for, econ, for character_reset, is:
character_reset "Ulrich Hummel" note with u instead of ü, as this is the way the name file is set up.
Btw, will be checking forums only once a day most likely for the next two or so months.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
character_reset kills faction members? Does it also work on agents? (I'm compiling instructions for Gahzette Challenge creation.)
Also, my computer is back up and running just fine. I have no more restrictions on fighting battles.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
character_reset resets the movement points for that character. You can then go ahead and try to kill him by engaging in a battle.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Ah. FYI, there is one sure-fire way to kill off faction members.
1) Have them attack an army with ranged units.
2) Move them into range of the missiles.
3) Turn them around so they are being hit in the back.
4) Wait and avoid any melee that approaches.
Generals pretty much never rout without melee contact, so they will sit and get hit with missiles until the general dies, even if Wavering. I do this whenever I have someone I really want to kill off. Engaging them in melee risks survival by rout.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
i prefer to deathcharge into a column of spearmen and get enveloped, but thats just me.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
No, it's easy,turn your bodyguard so that the first unit the enemy will hit will be the general (90 degrees to the right), guard mode on and let them attack
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
I still prefer the glorious death by stack-of-enemy-ships.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Hey guys,
Just discovered this site like a week ago and one of the first things I've noticed is this PBEM. I must say I've never been in one before but this makes me wish I could join.
Yet my computer had been taken over by the comp daemons:smash: (Doing this from a back up computer.) and I cant play M2TW.
Yes it's sad I know you can cry with me if you want. ~:mecry:
But anyways I just really felt the need to tell you guys that this is a great read. Its an amazing story.
I've read the whole Council of Crusaders/Kingdom of Outremer thread, and it read like a great story.
Read the timeline too helped me catch up faster.
I'm in the middle of the story thread and plan on reading the last few Diets just for fun.
So anyways I'm just telling you guys that your doing a great job keep it up.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Welcome to the .Org, Lt. Pinard! ~:wave:
Always good to know that we have an audience. I hope that you're able to join the PBM sometime soon and in the meantime, keep reading! :yes:
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Welcom to the .ORG Lt. Pinard!
Thanks for the praise, I think I speak for everyone when I say it's been a labour of love. You don't have to have the game to join, You can role play an avatar(be it general, priest, merchant, diplomat, ect.) if you want, and contribute to the Diet In character. You could also join as a nameless elector without an assigned avatar, more people are always welcome, I encourage you to.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Thanks for the warm welcome. The Non-general character might be an option but Ill have to think on it.
See If I can do anything useful by being such a character.
Also I have a question I've been wondering about. In some of the stories and the Diet itself characters meet face to face.
Does that translate in game too? Like for Diet do all characters get moved to one city?
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Avatars stay where they are on the game map. The face to face Diet Sessions are a conceit that helps in role playing.
So even if Jobst, for example, is located in northern Europe and Conrad Salier is in Damascus, they can still attend the Diet and "talk" to each other. Given that were playing two year turns, it's not too much of a stretch.
The actual location of the Avatars is only important for battles and other game actions.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Yup, tho when Ansehelm goes on crusade against Russia I will simply have him leaving the Diet till he comes back.
But then, in real people could travel from Rome to Thorn in 3 months or so. Outremer is a different case tho.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Thats what I assumed you did. Justing roleplaying in when the distance was nesscary.

Like that

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
You certainly do not need to have a general in order to participate. In fact, I kind of miss the WOTS 'backbenchers' who always provided a few extra swing votes in important elections. We've actually got several extra generals at the moment, so you could even take one and just not fight. Either keep the guy in a city or take your chances with autoresolve.
Current Charter Amendments allow for general-less players to become Counts as well, so you can even give build queues and advance in rank. If you would like to join, I would suggest Austria, as they have the fewest players at the moment and could use a few more Diet votes.

I have/am uploading the 1244 final save.
Am ending turn now.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
warluster, I think sardina was to be gifted to the sicilians anyway. We could just help them siege the city, it would still be IC as they are our oldest allies.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Sicily isn't siegeing it though, their just standing nearby. Its the SPanish who are siegeing it.

The only save so far is Ituralde's. There's little point uploading a final 1244 save if there are no more battles. A start of 1245 one would be more interesting, but remember to give the AI its cash flow injection.

There's nothing to discuss about, we need to see the next year

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Warluster - it is 48 hours since Ituralde posted his save; what is the hold up?
