How many do you want till you start? Because we can always start small and have more join later.

O absolutely if we can only get the starting FM's its okay because then it will be easier to gain fame (i Hope) and after that i will just generate generals and well be on our way!

A question - after looking at WotB, I am confused about who controls offspring. Like, if Person A becomes Roman Romanus and has a kid, and that kid comes of age, who controls him? The dungeon master - excuse me - navarro? Some other guy? Does Person A get to control Romanus's children himself?

Yes all "Avatars" not taken by an actual being are controlled by the "Game Master" (yes that's me) but if he is your Avatar, he is virtually untouchable by anyone else including me. If you (your character) has a son it may be worked out that he will become your "aid" and you can then control him if you would like. However to have aids you must be claimed owner of a province which in BtSH will be called a "Provincial Dictator" and you will be aloud to have 5 aids actually who can form a house around you to better your prominence in the game as civil war is a possibility. If you are not in the Royal Family, you will earn your way their by gaining a Man of The Hour (in combat most likely) and if the benefactor accepts you and adopts you, then that player may begin having sons as well.

I can tell you that in WotB the offspring will stay in some city(capital most likely) and will wait some player to play them. Either totally new player or a player who have lost his current avatar.

Yes, but what I mean is that there are hundreds of senators, and only a relative handful of participants. I guess we could just give them the Synedrion (TM) treatment and let navarro describe the general mood of the AI senators when appropriate.

Sure, this seems interesting. One thing though, would this involving sending in orders like the Holy Roman Empire game, or passing the savegame around? It would certainly make the game go faster if two or three (active) admins just processed orders instead of having to pass a savegame around, and it also allows us to use a more up to date BI-EB or even Alexander-EB setup, as well as using EB 1.2 even.
