The battle looks hopeless to me. How are you set in terms of real life playing time? Do you think you'll be able to deal with it tonight?
It looks like Stig will also be attacked by the AI, so let the AI carry on it's move after you are done. If I am right, and Anselhelm is attacked, upload the save and post here, so Stig can pick it up without any further delay.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
There is more than enough spare avatars.
I'd prefer a few deaths in a battle. That would be great and far more interesting than every avatar dying of old age.
Pick a new character and move on I say.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
yeah, it probably is hopeless - im not a great battler anyways. im gonna give it a good shot, maybe have like a glorious defeat that still kicks them to the curb.
but im kinda attached to ol' pétey, so i dont want to just throw him away.

Just so I don't have to edit my IC post, that's very true. Currently, if this session is to take off, we need two more.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
@ stig, political sacrifice now (holding thron against huge odds) can translate into political gain later. Just keep that in mind ~;)

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Maybe you are as lucky as Hans and rout with only yourself or at most 1 GB remaining :grin2:

That's the spirit Gibbo!! Give em hell. Great men making great sacrifices is what will get talked about at the end of the day OOC.
Sigismunds murder will never be forgotten, neither will Leopold last hurrah with the Mongols.
With avatars to spare I would have thought a few people would have worked that out by now.

Well, your death will certainly be cause for a heated debate in the Diet.
Considering the circumstances...

3 old Franconians are going to die, they are going to take those.
Sides as I said, I put a couple of hours into Ansehelm, I don't want to throw that away because Igno wants to play a childish game.

Sacrifice as in dying?
I'd rather survive.
I don't see why I'm not allowed to attack this turn and retreat in the direction of Thorn.
The only thing that stops me from that is Igno's complete ignorance and game ruining.

I can understand that - this would be a pretty meaningless death IMO. IIRC, you have about three spears against a full stack of cavalry and artillery. If you do want to survive, be careful. The Russian horses will probably be faster that your BG and will catch you if you rout (or flee) some distance from the edge of the map. Time your exit carefully.
Good luck. :sweatdrop:

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
geez why bother even fighting lol im just gonna run for it with pete and have the spears raise hell

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
You can't run if you can't retreat

That's right.
It's pretty much a fight to the death, by the sound of it.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
He does not have to fight, he can also let himself be attacked next turn and retreat, with a bit of luck he'll make it to Thorn

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Right Econ and I had some discussion (with Gibson as the CC)
After Peter gets under attack I get attacked, so would Gibson allow me to autoresolve I could go on directly.
Waiting on his reaction I already did that just to try: and the following happened:
Peter autoresolves and survives
Ansehelm retreats
Ansehelm fights anyway
All nobles survive
Here's the save if Gibson agrees to it:

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
OK, we'll wait for Gibson to post yay or nay here. He can unpick things if he is unhappy with what Stig has done and work from the save Ignoramus posted instead.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Well guy's let me know when you want the Emergency Session called.
I can pull the trigger when ever you want now.
There's been some back room action.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Wait for Gibson to agree with the save or not.
A new year is a good place to start
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
I'd go ahead and announce it, but just say that the session will officially start after we "hear news" (get the save back) from Peter's Battle. That way we guarantee that no further progress will be made with the save, even if you or the other Dukes are offline, until we've sorted this whole thing out.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Well when Peter fights his battle I have to fight mine immediatly afterwards (both of us get attacked).
So it all comes down to Gibson
I'm putting no presure on you what so ever m8, no presure :bounce:

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Stups and I have made the call.
Start your engines gentlemen!! It's gonna be huge!! :laugh4:

I would go for it. The Diet is pretty lively this time of day. If you wait until tomorrow, it could get off to a quiet start.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Come to think of it, it doesn't matter if we wait for Gibson or not. It doesn't matter if he agrees, those battles need to be fought.
We can start the Emergency Session, Gibson can decide later on.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Econ I suggest you make it two days. If I suggest something some players might miss it due to time zones or work or something. If you have one day for Edicts, one day for seconding we don't have this problem.
btw do we need an Edict to overthrow the Chancellor or has that already happened.
Sides we also need people to stand candidate, which might take a while.
I suggest you make it 48, or atleast 36 hours.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
As said before in this thread an now IC in the Diet, I have honestly no clue what will happen now. We can solve this OOC or IC, I don't care, maybe IC would be more interesting. Precedence in the making! :laugh4:
I belive there should be discussion, then there should be a proposal of impeachement, which after seconding can be voted upon. If it is successful, there will be another Diet session where new Edicts could be proposed and of course the next Chancellor would make his speech and afterwards stand for election.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Great minds think alike! :yes:
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Just as a reminder, someone still has to come with an Edict so that we can vote for a new chancellor I think. Now nothing happens apart from a couple of edicts, we also need to get a new chancellor.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
I will keep track of the proposed legislation of the session and the charges against Chancellor Hummel in the History. If people have grievances and Charter violations in mind, PM me or post in the Diet or OCC and they will be listed as well.
