    Anyway, hope you'll have me in the next few weeks.
    Oh wow, talk about another blast from the past! Welcome back, Braden!

    I already told OK this, but I'll let the rest of you know too. I just started college so please forgive Bertin if he isn't very active for this week.

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    Woah, did the King just throw the Seneschal under the bus, or what?

    Damn that's cold.

    Welcome back Braden, I don't think we worked together too much in KotR, but I look forward to it now.

    As a request, could we possibly put all future battle screenshots in spoiler tags? Right now there are only 14 posts in the thread (and some of them are still placeholders), but the length is already massive.

    Could we allow a few days before the start of the next Conseil to allow everybody to make their bid for land ?

    I've received some bids already and answered them mostly but there are still some missing from what I would expect...

    So I finally got around to installing Kingdoms & Co on my computer. I also put the KotF Mod on top of it. For some reason it won't create the shortcuts for me. Or they don't appear, I don't know which is the case.

    Either way my question now is whether those shortcuts are truly needed?
    I just loaded the most recent save KotF1095-3 and Bodyguard Recruitment is at one Florin like it's supposed to be. So am I all set or will I wreak havoc if I continue to start up the game via the Lands to Conquer shortcut?

    Also I didn't know that Henri was 17 already. Time to get him active!

    Mon General..time for us oldies to have a group hug? .

    so far so good re-learning the game, just need to find all the downloads that we're using here. One was a .rar file (no good for me).

    Well son, it went like this. He taught me everything I know. Then I taught you everything I knew and then you turned into the most evil Dread Knight ever imagined. So a job well done, wouldn't you say!

    IIRC, he bowed out just as you came in. Big player in WotS; the guy wrote the original torture story and took part in the first-ever Throne Room PvP battle.

    go figure. I always assumed AG had spawned from the depths of hell before there even was a PBM

    Historical records from that time are hit or miss, but here's some info:

    Character
    Senate Deliberations IV
    Civil War Stories
    Battle of Ancrya

    It's been a while since I reviewed WotS, but Manius was one of the more tragic characters in the Civil War.

    AG started as an unnamed Austrian elector and "Merchant of Venice". The character resembled Alain (without an accent) more than Arnold in my opinion. Wine, women and song rather than blood, black cloaks and dread. Otto and he were always trading casks of wine or ale from the latest conquests.

    You can freely download an evaluation copy of WinRar that will unpack the .rar file.

    Nothing a came of catch or taking him to a football game won't resolve.

    @AG did you want Alain's story before or after the King's criticism in the Conseil? I used the date in the story, 1093, which is before this.

    Yup, we were in 1095 when Alain was defenestrated.

    I'll change the position of the story.
