Come on, you have a great character. This game is supposed to be fun and improve your mood. Hang in there!

I have a unique character, not a great one, and this is not a period for philosophical outspoken individuals.

[Vladimir]

Oh that's a lousy excuse. Make it so!

[Ramses II CP]

Oh the Prince is noble all right, in every classical sense of the word... you know, all the real, political, practical ones that have nothing to do with chivalry and everything to do with being born to power and not earned it.

Unfortunately for Gaetan he's also got the intelligent trait. I'd play him rather a lot differerently without that.

Maybe non of you are getting it, but - I am done, kaput, not playing anymore, asked to suicide, drown in the channel, be nonexistent.

Good bye, good night, and good luck.

It sounds like you feel the way I felt during Armatos' lifetime, so you have my sympathies. There's certainly something to be said for taking a break to recharge your batteries so you can come back later, which is what I hope you do.

But please, please let their be an honest duel-to-the-death. Take up House Aquitaine's challenges and slaughter your way through them, if you can. It's too good to just be left hanging.

That's a shame - I am sorry to see you go. I am sure you will be welcome back if you change your mind.

I left it up to Zim - I don't care eitherway, and no, I am not sure I will be returning, and will pull a PK to make sure that happens if I must. My head is not into this type of game at all, and I should have listened to TC way back when when he told me to quit.

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

I might be on Thursday around 6, so perhaps if the first duel is a lose for TinCow I can literally jump in and we can have the second duel consecutively. if not then I will be gone from Thursday till the afternoon Saturday.

[OverKnight]

Sorry, OK, but I am rooting for Prince Henry in this fight. Do you want to do a multiplayer battle?

I wish I could say I gave Prince Henry a noble death, but he fled after his BG was reduced to four men. He died off screen as part of the failed sally mechanic. My apologies.

He fought well, but should have gotten to the battle a bit quicker though he did finish off one of my spear militia units.

If it's any comfort, you could go find Otto von Tirol (nee Kassel) and take his head.

Morbid question, but does anyone know who Dieter von Magdeburg would have been in KotR?

Looks like there's some other stuff going on, I'll get to it once at work.

[Cecil XIX]

Morbid question, but does anyone know who Dieter von Magdeburg would have been in KotR?

I know that Mandorf, Leopold and Heinrich have the same names, so it's either the new Dietrich von Saxony or one of the many new generals that the Reich has summoned to oversee it's many provinces. I'm guessing the latter.

Also, sorry to see you go YLC. It's always a sad day when such an experienced member leaves.

[OverKnight]

Took a look at the HRE early start campaign: Yup, Dieter's a redshirt. Otto has the same name too, I was thinking of Stainless Steel not LTC.

Though they did switch up avatar pics, Otto has Heinrich's face. . .very odd.

[Cecil XIX]

Yeah, Mandorf has Otto's face. Don't know why.

[Ramses II CP]

I hope this goes without saying, but I hold IC communication completely distinct from OOC. I am not in any way personally disturbed or upset by Gaetan's statements and I wish you only the best in this game or any other game where we meet YLC. Your contributions here will be missed.

That being said, the Prince is a bully; an entitled, commanding, uncompromising bully, who is convinced God himself personally appointed him to become King of France someday and IC he is going to exert his influence to that effect fully. I know PK was pretty upset that I played Fritz against his female character in much the same way when I joined KotR, but he and I worked it out in the end.

Vissa was my way of atoning for Fritz, I dunno what I'm going to have to play to atone for Louis.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'm already working on something with Heinrich should he pop up. Please at least inform me beforehand if you plan to kill him so he can get a word in.

[OverKnight]

Good thought GH. econ, do you want a copy of the battle report before it goes out so you can add something?

Again, I'm sorry I offed the mirror, mirror version of your former avatar. But he was clearly evil, he had a goatee.

[econ21]

econ, do you want a copy of the battle report before it goes out so you can add something?

No thanks - it would be too sad. Well thought, btw.

I am just wondering - have we deprived HRE of its only castle? It might make for a duller war.

[Ramses II CP]

Don't they have that one in the mountains still?

[AussieGiant]

You're a machine OK. Heroic Victory...pha.

[OverKnight]

Yup, Innsbruck, my old stomping ground.

Also, there are large German armies swarming around, so I'm not shedding any tears for them yet by taking Staufen. To be honest it was a bit of a desperation move on my part.

They'll most likely get it back soon enough.

[AussieGiant]

We will see what happens next.

I will take the save back later tonight GMT +1 and get the new turn started.

Should be interesting.

[OverKnight]

Hopefully it'll look like this:



My favorite pic from the battle. Report should be up within the day, I'm a bit tired at the moment.

[AussieGiant]

Bloody hell.

[Ituralde]

I'm back. At least a bit more. I will have more regular access to the internet but still won't be able to look at the saves directly. I would have preferred to wait, but with the current situation my character just can't stand aside. So I will be more active. Just don't expect full participation from me just yet. That will come during the next week.

See you on the battlefield!

[AussieGiant]

Not a lot of action or discussion going on in the Council thread.

That will leave me with some wide scope to work with this turn regarding negotiations with the English.

I'm thinking of a two for one deal if I can not sell Caernarvon by itself.

[Ramses II CP]

Err, by the way, before I can decline the adoption and move my House's avatars I need to know what the resolution of the tax issue at Zaragosa is.

The Seneschal can make the move for me if the tax issue is resolved properly, but it'd need the King agreeing to set the taxes to low as Zaragosa officially belongs to him at the moment.

[Ignoramus]

Just to let everyone know, I'll be away for the next three days, so if anyone wants to contact the Order, please do so through econ, who is Lieutenant of the Order.

[AussieGiant]

As long as Tristan sends me the tax issues....

in fact...Tristan can you update your SOT with all the provinces we have taken so I can set them correctly.

-EDIT-

I will take the save tonight.

[AussieGiant]

What happens if a province is sold, do all the avatars and regiments in it get moved to a French province or just suddenly find themselves in someone elses territory?

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'll be out of town until Sunday for a wedding. Not sure whether I'll have internet or not.
