We are all going to patch after pressing the end of turn button, so if we can cut Stig some slack, it would be good.
We'll see how long that lasts before Lothar asks Fred to eat a baby.Quote:

I think Arnold hands out babies at the annual welcome picnic for new Austrian electors.
:clown:
I don't think I've seen that avatar portrait before.
Looks like Stuperman got himself quite a decent avatar and will soon be filling up the family tree - and let's see how long it takes for our first "Cruelly Deformed" avatar :grin2:
Has anyone noticed that Lothar and Fred have matching mustaches?
Its so cute....
:laugh4:
I'll also mention that for a starting avatar, thats pretty decent. I wished I got ones like that in my SP games. ^^
As these are the last two battles of my term, barring a defensive one, go ahead and use 1.3Quote:

Ideally I'd like to get character bios in there, to really do the players some justice after all the time they spent.
Is there anything I should be doing?
i can post ehrhart and peter's bios
Battle fought. Over to you, Stig.

The next Diet session is only a day or so away, and everyone has the opportunity to propose one Edict or Constitutional Amendment, so you might think about what you want to propose. Also check out what your House is going to propose as its three Household Edicts.Quote:

Econ21, I'm wondering. As my avatar Helmut is only a temporary one for the Franonian household. I still want to be part of the Austrian household though. Despite the fact that I just found out Wheilm's baby is a girl :shame:. But i was wondering if I could propose my edict for the Austrian household instead?
Roadkill: if you are not sold on Franconia, why not simply give up Helmut and take a recruitable Austrian general? Austria is short of avatars and Franconia has quite a lot of players, so I don't think anyone would mind.
If you make your mind up soon, Overkill could probably spawn one for you before he presses end turn and so you could see his stats and traits before entering the full Diet debates.
Overkill, haha. :laugh4: I see I'm not the only one having an off day.
In wiki news, the list of KotR characters is up. I just need you guys to fill 'em in now.
That would be great econ, I shall give up Helmut, and ask for a recruitable general. I'll try to tie in this new avatar with Wheilm.Quote:

Boy gibson, you sure lucked out. I played the last 1296 save a dozen times, and every time Peter won that battle and stayed on that bridge and inquisitor tried him for heresy. Really wish I knew what changes that kind of thing.
dang - im really scared of inquisitors cuz peter is 0 piety. but if thats what happens once on ur game, it wont change. when my system runs it its using different strings or something. perhaps FH can explain better
Sigh...I must repeat again, I hate school....
I am really busy atm and will be far a long time so I will be giving the title of Duke to Factionheir for the House of Swabia since I can not be as avid a participant due to current situations.
Retirement for Duke Scherer, eh? I can imagine him spending his days in a villa somewhere in Burgundy or Switzerland. Well, you've/he's certainly earned it.
duke scherer has kicked a fair share of booty in his time
Since Duke Scherer just resigned, does this take into effect?
So, I take it Hans is not Duke yet? Does Siegfried pick?Quote:
Charter Amendment 8.1:
Clause 2: Amend 4.7 by adding: If a Duke resigns, the Kaiser appoints a successor.
Looks like it.
And, judging by precedent, Hans is ruled out as Duke since Scherer recommended him. :laugh4:
I believe that is correct PK.
Roadkill,
Can you get on the new Avatar for Austria as I will want to make him Count of something in time for the Diet voting session.
I'm still waiting for Overknight, to tell me the results of the recruited general.
I am Chancellor, but I cannot bend space and time. :laugh4:
I will recruit a General in Budapest, once the siege is broken in 1298, and he will spawn in 1300. Until then his qualities will be unknown.
Edit: If Xdeathfire is resigning as Duke, doesn't the Kaiser appoint a new one?
Well, my thinking is that Ituralde would likely appoint Athalwolf or Dassel, so the best solution would be to keep Xdeathfire as Duke (by name) while Hans rules in his stead (since he's Steward anyway)
[edit]
KOTRfix 1.28 is up. Please update :yes:
Non-chancellors as usual only need the non-optional files unless they fight a battle during AI turn or will be ending turn after playing it.
As for why its 1.28 instead of 1.3...1.3 didn't actually do anything (except make the game laggier I think) so not worth upping that number just yet :grin2:
best solution? best for who? :laugh4:Quote:

Well, its an IC thing, so GH isn't Heinrich anymore but Dietrich.
PK: Best for me... err Swabia... of course :laugh4:
At least your honest about it FH :2thumbsup:
I wish Jens Hummel was still alive. OOC, I think he would be the most amusing Swabian Duke right now. "Lord of all of the World...I mean Swabia"
Of course his son Wolfgang would be a nice option also.
Siegfried will be docile this time though. He has caused enough uproar and probably will in the future without further alienating the House of Swabia. :beam:
Arrrrrr, me Mateys it be Talk Like a Pirate Day.
I be spectin' you scalawags to be talking Buccaneer for the next day, or I'll keel haul the lot of you.
:pirate2:
Arr, I be followin' the rule closely but me normal lingo still be cap'n in the Diet.
Shiver me timbers, it'd be worse than going to Dave Jones's locker itself if I had to speak before the mast and give a Chancellor's report this day, arrrrr.
Roadkill me matey, ye switched yer avatar in time, look what t' bastards did t' Helmut
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
So ye matey keelhauled t' Russian pirate after t' battle.
For ye who are unable to speak like ye good ol' mateys:

Somehow Roadkill is doomed...
I guess this at least compensates for the general we will be hiring, huh? Well, let's see how many lions will respond in the diet to this death, eh? ~:)
Conspiracy theory anyone?
Avast ye landlubbers!
This will the be last message from me for some time. For all concerns IC and OOC please contact econ21 or Elberhard respectively. I'll then be able to get back to you and deny your IC requests and belittle them OOC. :clown:
Jan's brother was killed by the Russians? Remember, his brother-in-law was bribed by them too. Something tells me Ansehelm won't get a hard time from Jan over that last execution... :no:
Also, did you guys hear about that new pirate movie their making?
It's going to be rated Arrrrrr!!!!
:clown:
Harr harr Ituralde! Afore ye return, we'll be takin' yer avatarrrr hostage, and ye'll not get out o' the holds till yon econ has his way with yer warld. Them that die'll be the lucky ones!
(translation: have a nice vacation, see you when you get back)
Something tells me that he meant to put these the other way around, right Elberhard? :wink:Quote:

Yeah, it sounds like it was a "good death". I'm still trying to figure out how to have Jan respond IC when he finds out. o_O
Jan and Helmut didn't exactly part on the best of terms. I swear, guilt is the fuel that keeps Jan going from day to day. :laugh4:
I guess all Hamburgs are now permanently displaced in Outremer eh? The new Franconian house :laugh4:
Aaaarrrrrhhhhh!!!!
Hahharrrhhhhh!!!!
hhharrrrrr...
harrr...

r....rrrr.
There is more truth to that than you know. Fredericus pretty much made von Hamburg the "Outremer" family of Franconia after Duke Dietrich picked Gunther to be Duke. There is still the son of the traitor who is a "von Hamburg" but he'll pop up in Rome since his dad is dead. Otherwise it's just Dieter and Jan. Dieter has a daughter though and maybe the game's whacky heir mechanic will allow her to get married.Quote:

Since this thread is about to be closed anyways, I wonder how many "arrrs" we can fill it with before the end. ^_^
arrr
ARRRRRRRR!!!!! I be installin' Kingdoms and then I'll be takin' your precious save and yer wenches!
From what the old salts tell me 'bout the dreaded install is that it can eat a man whole and takes forever! Plus there's some foul creature lurking in it's depths that latches on to yer hard drive like a barrrnacle and won't let go.
I'll try to make progress, but ye might have to wait, you impatient dogs!
Edit: Ummm, where's the save? I've see 1298-1, but where's Stig's save?
You forgot an ARR in your edit :wink:
Dunno, maybe he forgot to upload?
Nope, as I said in reply to OK's PM didn't have the time yet, it's up now thoQuote:

The advance into next yearrrr will have to wait for the new tide (aprrox 12 hours for getting into 1300 and a proper end of term report).
If ye don't like it, take a long walk off a short plank.
Shiver me timbers! A chancellor who's asleepin' regular-like is in need of a good keel-hauling! Pull out yer cutlasses and carve 'im up, boys!
(do I need to add arrrr?)

Batten down the hatches, mateys! It be time for this ship to take some hits! Arr!
Is it tomorrow yet? I'm tired of keel-hauling!
Hello all.
Sorry, made a copy/paste error in my last fix version. I accidentally pasted the character traits and anc file directly into the zip root folder rather than the data folder. The ones in the data folder are still semi-old versions which had a typo in them causing CTD on loading.
The way to fix it is by unpacking 1.28 as usual (just move data folder into your m2tw root folder, overwriting your data and data\text folder) and then separately moving the 2 files in the zip root folder into the data folder overwriting the 2 files.
Alternatively, I just uploaded 1.28a which has all that done for you already. Sorry for the inconvenience.
http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/KOTRfix128a.zip
I have the save and will resume play once some problems with the latest fix are ironed out.
Please stand by.
We know you have a choice of Play by Email campaigns, and we appreciate your business.
Crisis averted, I will continue playing.
I have update the Chancellor's report for 1298:

I will be preparing a final report for 1300 soon.
ye av therrr matey!!

10 freaking florins?! That's the most pathetic mission reward I've ever seen.
Heh, Arnold Scherer and Lorenz Zirn. If that ain't funny :laugh4:
What's even more so, their portraits are somewhat similar too.
TC, I think it is the negative consequence of the mission OK was mindful of, the assassinations of nobles by the guild.
Wait, they what?
We should probably demolish all of the Guilds if that's a consequence.

This was the mission statement I believe.
FYI, the Library update will not be done until late Friday. Apologies for any inconveniences this may cause.
Thirteenth Diet; Thirteenth OOC thread. I hope no one is superstitious! :laugh4:
