Heroic Warfare - New Stype of Play for RTW

[Flying Pig]

This is an idea for a novel method of playing. How it works is that you play as a barbarian faction to start with. You then abide by these 'rules of war':

1) Only ever declare war for some breach of conduct from your enemy; either espionage or a direct attack

2) Take retribution for said misconduct, but only ever kill one named character or a stackful; so never attack royal families; and only take one settlement at the most.

3) When the above is done, offer a ceasefire for no other conditions. If accepted, stop fighting until 1) comes into effect again. If declined, repeat 3)

4) All of your stacks must be lead by named characters when they go to battle. Only attack stacks lead by named characters.

5) If possible during battle, set your general on the enemy's and try to make it a one-on-one unit contest by keeping his and your army away. Never withdraw from this without conceding the entire battle

6) Never employ an assassin or move a spy into a settlement that you do not own.

Any thoughts? It's meant to be a representation of how the Keltoi fought their wars so is intended for the gauls above all other factions. I want to see if people manage to win a campaign abiding strictly by these rules. Oh, and no cheats allowed!
