Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Lyse von Salza has spawned and currently has a Charm of 3, although the Tool Tips of her two traits suggest that she should have a rating of 4, since both are supposed to give +2 each. I also haven't seen any ancilliary or trait that reduces her charm. Any insights FactionHeir?

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
thats weird. well, in that case marry away! i wanna be in the tourney for her heart! lol. we should totally do what that one person said we should and have a multiplayer tournament for her hand.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Stuperman, no offence but I'd rather go on that crusade with some undeveloped characters. Preferably young, characters that need work so they get some good traits. When I got Ansehelm he already had some good traits, but characters as: Siegfried von Kastillien, Dieter Bresch, Wolfgang Hummel (he could do with some) or Helmut von Hamburg.
I can fight the battles now so that's no problem, sides I have no problem with autoresolving, stat wise I'm bringing superior troops.

An MP tourney for 4 players takes about 2 weeks to set up, arrange and fight, with luck.
I've been in multiple tourneys, and for tourneys you can fight about 1 person per week. Different schedules, timezones, GameSpy, etc.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
yeah, thats true, but we should do some cool way instead of just arbitrarily dropping her off.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Not sure about Helmut von Hamburg, but Dieter Bresch and Wolfgang Hümmel are definetly in Outremer. Dieter is running around with Conrad Salier, while Wolfgang is with his father in Adana.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
helmut's in ragusa last i checked - that would take a while too. maybe a reinforcement army coming from the black sea?
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Yeah all the young characters seem to be far away. We still have Fritz tho, he can come, or Ansehelm could simply go on his own.
Tho if Helmut is in Ragusa he has enough time to head north, it will take about 5 turns for the army to finish I guess. And Dieter can get his experience with Conrad.
Helmut should head north anyway as he's needed when Gunther and Jonas die (withing 10 turns is my guess)

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Yeah I belive one of the first jobs of the future Chancellor would be to sort out the character mess we have. With a lot of unassigned avatars coming up, they seem to appear every which way. I think it would be good to start moving them towards their respective Duchies or their Crusader Countys in Outremere to get some sort of organization going.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Yep. Unless you're in or on your way to Outremer, avatars should remain in their Duchies. Especially unassigned ones.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
The problem is is that all avatars who's fathers are outside cities spawn in Rome. That's 4 turns away from Franconia and 6 from the Outremer, atleast.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
yeah, thats where peter popped up.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Right, which means it should be a high priority to get them on their way to their Duchies. We've had several cases of avatars lingering around in strange places for much longer than they needed to. I think unassigned avatars should be stuck in cities and used as governors to build good traits so that they will eventually be appealing to players who need avatars. If you're a Franconian and you pop up in Rome, you should be making a bee-line north to help manage Franconian cities.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Actually it might be better to put them in the Italian cities and in the settlement with a young character you should than take down the tax so that happiness will grow to over 100% (green face), this will quickly give good governor traits in my experience.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Yeah, but who says us Bavarians want any of your filthy Franconians stealing our women? :laugh4:

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Actually a Jens von Kassel married Meinburg von Hamburg, so it's Bavarians, if you go by the randomly assigned last name of the suitor, stealing Franconian women. :beam:

OK, but Since joining this PBM, I've fought 3 battles (in as many months) only 2 of which counted for Gerhard, (one battle Conrad was technically the commander, but I was the battle fighter for IC reason) So Gerhard had few good traits, then those few were destroyed by the witch. Gerhard Has never fought a siege battle (Mersaille was taken when there was no garrison), hell he's never even been outside his dutchy. As much as I contribute IC and OOC on the forums, I've done almost nothing IN GAME, and would like to have a more active role. This northen crusade is probable the last time Gerhard will get a chance to activle contribute as he's getting older (he's 50 now) and besides, IC it doesn;t make much sence to have a Grand Northern Crusade run by a bunch of 20 something generals.
edit: OK, I'm confused, who married Gerhard's Daughter?

Aye true, but what I mean is that yes Gerhard hasn't done much (he has 10! loyalty tho, if I'm correct). But since he's 50 (mostlikely 53 when the crusade starts). Whatever he gains is little, and I think such is better done for the young characters, as they can use it in future.
Would be great to have someone old and experienced as Gerhard along for IC reasons tho. Bavaria isn't in much danger and can easely defended by Markus and Lothar, the only thing you might lack is governors for the Italian cities.

Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
im more worried he'd die before we get going...
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Nah, most characters get to 58
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
So far the savegame's been pretty nice with our character ages. Heinrich and Henry both made it to 62 before croaking, and Leopold was going strong in his late 50s until he died in battle.
Gerhard does have that witch's blight on him but he should still have enough time to at least start the Crusade before he bites it.
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Aye once he is near Thorn Ansehelm and the crusading army should be ready so they could go together near 1255 (either turn 1254 or 1256).
That's in 5-6 turns so Gerhard will be 53 then.
In 10 turns it should be possible to be in Moscow ... if it would be fully up to me. ~D
We could ofcourse grant him an heroic death at his old age ~D, or he could pass away sieging Moscow.

That's a good point, but it might be okay if don't stop the campaign. Does anyone know how long Princesses last?
-
Re: King of the Romans OOC thread VIII
Until age 40, just as any other female avatar.

The only way this can happen is if the person under whose "guidance" the princess spawned did not have the fixes installed.
In vanilla M2TW, EducatedWoman level 2 gives only 1 point, thus total 3. This does not update until she gains/loses another point in said trait or is fixed via console. This is why its so important to have the fixes properly installed when you are playing the game!
