I guess we will work the kinks out ourselves in the council meetings then?

I think so. I want to think that I have thought about everything while I wrote the Rules but no one is perfect. So if some part of the rules are causing too much trouble it can be changed later in game via Charter Amendment.

Here are the rule changes I mentioned before:

I think we should stick with what we got for armies for now, then swap if we run into the same trouble. I like this idea of Royal armies and whatnot.

I think so too. But just in case I'll rewrite the rules with the new army system of LotR in it and save them for the future.

Thats a good idea Ibn.

I think a good way to track captain-led stacks is to literally write down the name of the bloke, and track his position, this would be up to the army owner. We could however create a council position that would be in charge of logistics. he would make sure reinforcements get where they need to, that armies do not get confused with eachother, and that they all find a suitable place to camp to prevent starvation. He wouldn't beable to override orders from superiors or the owner or the army, and he could still hold a rank of General or something, it would just be a responsibility or office that one would be elected to...

just an idea to bounce of y'all

THIS IS AND EDITED EXCERPT FROM A POST IN THE SIGN-UP THREAD:
I think since they are independant states you have to declare war on each settlement. Also if you want to make an expedition deep into enemy territory (and not just a raid or attack on a bordering settlement/province) you should require your superior's approval... not a vote in the council, but just "hey mr satrap can i go sack memphis?" "why yes you can mr strategos!" im paraphrasing and adding a bit of jest, but you get the idea....
