[Csargo]

Venice plz

[PershsNhpios]

Colour me Venetian!
(Actually.)

I must return and read the rules properly, but I should also add that I will not be capable of the responsibilities a Duke would control in this game.

I hope to have time for those of a Count however.

[Twilightblade]

If I'm influenced by france then can I influence france in turn?

[Baby Boomer]

If I'm influenced by france then can I influence france in turn?

Possible; but highly unlikely. Savoy is powerful in Italy; but small compared to other European nations (France, Castile, HRE)

I hope to have time for those of a Count however.

Although Duke's control most of the nation's affairs Count's are a more personal character, based more upon only national events. There diffrent experince's but both very fun.

It's a small country.

In a way; Italy was as large as Europe.

Two new Rule's to be added;
Diseas'es and Natrual Disaster's
Techonologies

[The Wandering Scholar]

I'll take the Republic of Genoa

[Tiberius of the Drake]

Ill be a Count of Sicily :thumbs up:

[shlin28]

I want to be a count of Siciliy too

[Sarathos]

Shlin can be Deputy Count...?

[Baby Boomer]

Due to a 'problem' I encountered yesterday and over the weekend this game will start either Tuesday or Wedensday.

shlin28 can still be a full Count of Sicily, as can Tiberius of the Drake, there's simply two of them. (Unless one want's to change to another Duchy/Republic) . A question of conveneaice; would the Player's (and Reader's) prefer to have mutliple thread's in the Gameroom or a more organized set up?
