It is a hive of scum and villainy.

Edit: That's why I like it.

There's an OOC charter amendment that I forgot to bring up during the Council session, but would like to discuss now.

I believe that in Lands to Conqueor, as in vanilla M2:TW, the AI never switches Castles to Cities or vice-versa. I believe it would be a good idea to disallow this practice on our end as well. It's kinda gamey, even if the AI did do it, and Lord know we don't need any more advantages.

hello fellows,

Apologies for surfacing from my lurking, but I happened to catch one episode of a five part miniseries on Australian tv channel SBS last night that you all might be interested in if you haven't already seen it.

It's a French drama called (in English) 'The Accursed Kings', and stars several of the Depardieu family.

I found it very entertaining and reasonably historical, so you all might find it a fun thing to get hold of in order to research your characters and the period you're RPing.

Drop by any time.

Les Rois Maudits. Good books. I hope the tv adaptation didn't screw it up too much.

I haven't read the books although I'm aware of them - the TV series seemed great, the one I saw last night was 'The She-Wolf of France', about the struggle for power after the death of Louis X.

I can't really judge the acting, not being a native French speaker, but the whole tone of it was really soap opera-esque (a great thing in my opinion) and had me gripped on the edge of my seat.

O the perfidy!

Unfortunately I did an interweb search after posting and it looks like it's nigh-on impossible to find an English-subtitled DVD version, so this recommendation may be for Frenchies only, and for Aussies who can catch it next week on SBS.

I think that would be a good idea, particularly given our PvP recruitment rules (which potentially give an incentive to switch to castles to get certain troops).
