I disagree with that, I don't think you can call up the bannerman without a campaign or war going on.Quote:

If you want to do sneak attacks use your personal army, don't rely on testy Vassals who may sell you out.:evil:
Ooh, I forgot about traitor vassals, give me a minute.
"Dear Lord Bolton..."
Like i said my opinion does not have anything to do with sneak attacks. For example if i knew before that i would be attacked. I cant call my banners up and ready in all silence. Now i cant do this even if i had information about something sinister before hand.Quote:

Its quite simple to add "call banners if attacked" to orders. :shrug:
Good thing the North would never accept him as warden without hostages/gold and no male Starks left, huh?:smartass:
I wonder how much time realistically would calling the banners take
Oh, I know what to do about that. :mellow:Quote:

Sorry for bring that up.It is just a personal opinion, nothing else.I will not bring it up again. It is all besides the point in any case as the thing i wanted to discuss was the possible last minute declarations which seem gamey to me.Quote:

Don't be daft, I'm more than happy for the players to let me know their thoughts on gameplay. I want to get the results done for this round, then I'll look at making a rule for declarations. I see where you are coming from with not being allowed to call the banners, there are arguments both ways. I simply feel in terms of game balance and simplicity not being able to call unless at war was the best decision.Quote:

HaHA! you seem to have forgotten to check the privvies for assassins crawling through the tubes, say goodbye to oberon suckers! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!
Kidding.
I am guessing our characters stats decide if our actions are successful or if they just plain fail CK style.:book:
I would assume there are some actions that dont require stat checks, otherwise we'd have a situation where Mace Tyrell gets lost in his own land trying to move from Oldtown to Highgarden because he messed up a dice roll.
No, I'll assume the characters have either glanced at a map, or have a retainer who has.
Mace Tyrell is bit like many CEO´s these days. He has been blessed with bunch of good employees, so he can sit on his fat behind and take credit from the hard work and talent of others.:smug:
I agree with that. and to be honest, my last minute declaration was because i actually forgot that i had to do it in the thread... i went home from a gathering actually to make the declaration. (im not proud of that XD)Quote:

I think the answer to that would be "Yes", since I just told them to leave King's Landing (which I doubt they would do), and they called me a traitor and want my head. Plus I said if they didn't leave in thread, I would blockade them and we called eachother "pretender king" (Joffery) and "outlaw" (Stannis)... very grey area'd.
Depends, do you want to be curbstomped now or after you've taken care of Renly?
I am kinda guessing that you guys would be at frosty relations but not outright war yet. Unless one of you guys give up your claim to the Iron throne, I can't see this ending any other way then though bloodshed though.:shrug:
Well, there was a reason no one bothered to attack Stannis at Dragonstone. Mostly due to the fact the amount of resources required to take it would be too costly, especially if you are going to have Starks, Tully's, and other factions having dinner without invite in Casterly Rock.Quote:

To me.You are at war the second Joffrey is proclaimed King by the Hand or the High Council as Stannis had made a claim to the throne.
am i at war with the tullys?
Yes, attack the neutral faction, see where that gets you.Quote:

Highgarden (they plot and they scheme, growing bolder). And don't forget the Starks have Tyrion.
Man I'm dying of impatience...
You've been at war with us ever since that fateful day...
this is no longer meta game!!! to the official thread u guys :whip:
What is this nonsense? Highgarden is more neutral then neutral can be.:rolleyes:Quote:
