Why does Charles have "King Frances' bodyguards"?
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Aren't they a bit out of their time frame?
I'm not complaining since I have better BG unit than the others but I was just wondering.. is it a bug?
I noticed that Barbus Selvo and Henri also have them.
yeah, I noted this when I tested the save a few days back (yeah, I play the saves we use).
Full GOTHIC knights!! Sweet to look at but way before their time lol
Once I extracted the save file from Marcus' zip file, its around 2mb, which should be correct. :sweatdrop:Quote:

Suffice to say that no matter what, I couldn’t use that save file attached to post #507 which I didn’t understand fully but thought I’d traced it down to an undersize file.
Have you tested it in “live”?
Just tested it, Marcus' file works fine :sweatdrop:
I was unzipping the file, putting it in the correct folder but it just wasn't reading it as a .sav file. Going back into the appropriate folder I saw that the "KofF-1120-3.sav” file was tiny.
I’ve never had any issues before and swapping to the file on your post it all went through without a hitch.
Uploading the same now and taking the time to look at the properties of what’s uploaded…yes, it seems the right size.
So, I have NO idea why it didn’t work but…thankfully…there will have been minimal differences between the saves.
I am willing to replay what I’ve done to the save since Marcus’s move if we want to go down that route.
I leave it up to Trist however as he’s controlling the game currently and I’ll bow to whatever he decides.
Longest turn evah?! :beam:
We should play off the MA save. There were only movements made afterwards which Tristan should be able to replicate. Of course that's some additional work so in the end it's up to Tristan.
Hell yeah!
I don't mind going off MA's save file, to be honest as long as Trist moves Charles to Staufen and refuses the adoption "Lorraine" are happy to get organised again next turn with full movement points!
Just really need Trist back and the game to start flowing again, I'm worried we're losing people.
Well I have an important test on Monday so there couldn't have been a better time for things to slow down. :2thumbsup:
I wonder how many people in the game are connected closely to the academic calendar? It's crunch time number one of two before the end of the year currently, maybe that's why things are a little slow.
Regardless, it's fun to go off on alternate realities with the save... I can say from experience that Barthelemy and two units of town militia don't do well against a half-stack of Germans =)
Could be right, in fact I’m certain a good chunk are. Guess its up to us oldies to keep it ticking over huh?Quote:

Unfortunately I think a few of the oldies have been permanently sucked into academics for their employment.Quote:

Uni for me, but being in Australia it's nearly the end of exam period. So I should be more free in the coming weeks. That said, I am also working over the holidays.
Sorry guys, if the game is not moving fluidly, but things keep piling up... I'll get to it Sunday afternoon at the latest (the wife will be out shopping...) and maybe earlier if I can manage...
Stay tuned, people...
Wives and Children...the bane of our gaming lives huh! :laugh4:
(runs before his other half sees....)
Seconded! :laugh4:Quote:

Fingers crossed, though I have every confidence, that Ramses (or one of the other Avatars) picks up the save in the next 24hrs…I’d seriously HATE Henri becoming heir though an auto-resolve!
I've been avoiding this subforum for a while now.
I started pretty enthusiastic with Thierry and was looking forward to play a real jerk.
Then came holiday and I was afk for 10 days or so. I never really got back into the game and couldn't bring myself to at least try to get back in either.
I don't know how else to describe it other than "I'm no longer feeling it."
But whatever the reasons, I owed it to the fine bunch of people here to at least post something.
By the time I realised that, more than a month had already passed an I felt too embarrassed and ashamed to post here, because I let you guys down for more than a month without news.
In the meanwhile, more time has passed and, well, my behaviour could now be seen as simply rude :shame:
You can remove Thierry from the game and I grant you permission to grab your pitchforks and torches to chase me away for taking so long before posting here :embarassed: I fully deserve it.
No longer wanting to continue to play is acceptable, just staying away without giving a reason or explanation is rude and unforgivable.
I'm so sorry :shame:
Sorry to hear you're leaving us, Andres... And no bad feelings about not keeping us up to date, these things happen...
The only good point is that I found Thierry's presence rather distracting... Not moving one iota for years... I'll be getting rid of him next turn...
And don't worry we have no pitchforks left for you, they're damn too useful tearing at each other's here... So feel free to come back in here from time to time and throw in some comments...
Ohhh..and I was ready for a Pitchfork-Tikki weilding party...
Nothing negative from me either, in fact can relate totally as I'm putting off announcing my retirement from another forum (LRP one) as I just don't have the time or inclination for the work involved running it.
Ah-ha... my ashigaru have been waiting for years for an opportunity like this!
I think we all completely understand Andres. Thanks for the note, and best wishes with all else you're involved in.

I think that makes the almost perfect battle report...IC it a bit..and bingo! :2thumbsup:
Who is the Heir now that Louis became the king. Henri or Barbus Selvo?
Sad to see Philippe go, Tristan. :bow: I guess this means we need to call a Conseil session to choose a new Seneschal? So in game, we freeze activity and the save posted will be for information only for the time being.Quote:

I guess it effectively starts a new Conseil session to elect the next Senechal :book:
To answer, your question Braden, Henri is the new heir... Time for marriage... A Danish princess could fit the bill nicely... Or some exotic Moorish one ? :belly:
You'd have to check the save for that info on the family tree I guess.Quote:

20k from the English for peace and only spend 14k to get peace from three others...ok plus a troublesome province but fantastic work!
Econ21 is correct now I guess...we need a Seneschal and have to call an emergency session.
No need of an Emergency seesion, IIRC... It defaults to a normal session to elect a Senechal for the remainder of Philippe's term, as Philippe was only halfway through...
