I am going to have to withdrawal from this. Something has gone wrong with my computer and no game will load up. Everything else seems fine, but when I try to load games the screen just turns black. Sorry to inconvenience you all.

Video card issues Ichigo, uninstall and reinstall the drivers and then give it a shot. Not saying this will solve it but it has happened to me before on Total War games.

So I guess we're waiting on Tristan and PrinceofTroy.

Unless things fall out differently than I expect, it looks like we'll be heading into an election. Unless of course we assume Philip has never, in his 57 years, used his prerogative to assume the Chancellorship and Ramses wants the job.

Things should get even more interesting.

[Ramses II CP]

Ahh, the trouble with me taking the job is, I'm still involved in a civil war and, in fact, pretty much alone and on the run. If I can give orders to those men who were supposed to be my reinforcements I'm going to order them to instead reinforce Anjou's nobles. So if I became Chancellor and immediately thereafter I died... new election with King Louis holding all the cards.

We're going to have to pick a different person. I have someone in mind, however, which I'll try to discuss with the heads of the respective houses as sure as we're certain it's necessary.

Since we're at the point of adding a lot more complexity (and time) to the Test Game, do we want to continue it? We're only playing this to test the rules, so when it ceases to serve that purpose we should end it and prepare for the real game. Does it seem like there is still more to be learned from the Test Game?

[The Lemongate]

Hum, I must say that though I tried a bit to give life to Raoulet, I wasn't that much into the guy... so I wouldn't mind closing the Test Game now. Or we can continue it.

I'm happy with what we've learned from it. I say we close it unless we think we can learn more from it. But if others want to continue it, then I will continue to to prosecute a civil war to the best of my ability.

If we do continue the game, does Ichigo's vote count? This thing might come down to the wire so it is important. Can his replacement vote? Do we force him to abstain? It doesn't seem fair that a guy voted after he quit the game.

*edit*

Nevermind, it seems Ichigo's game works and he can keep playing.

[OverKnight]

Things are some things we haven't vetted in the test game:

Oath-breaking and the fall out from that.

Reorginazation, merging or splitting of Houses and the fall out.

Inheritance

Beheading of former Chancellors on charges of high treason.


Still, I'm eager to get going on a real game. I'm not opposed to learning on the fly.

[Privateerkev]

It would take forever to test every aspect of the rules. In fact, we've changed the rules since we've started the test game. I think we've got the mechanics of the game "down" pretty good and the rest will shake itself out. Plus, in the real game, we can just pass CA's if we find rules that need tweaking.

[The Lemongate]

Reorginazation, merging or splitting of Houses and the fall out.

That was actually in the works with the impeachment.

Though I'm not sure we would've gotten the impeachment done because some ppl probably won't answer, being mostly AFK and all.
