KOTF OOC Thread

There will be no need for avatars to join the Crusade right now as Philippe has enough units to do it by himself.

What remains to determine is whether we should or not allow "teleportation" to Paris of those avatars wishing to join the Crusade or have them walk the way from their own position... This could lead to some OOC discontent as IC Philippe won't wait very long before going...

OOC, however, I'm prepared to go with any solution that satisfies those willing to join...

After much IC debate and an edge of the seat vote, we have an Edict that sets out how to organise the crusade. Since the King voted for this, why not just have him follow it? We congregate on Paris where OK organises us into stacks and then we march on London forming up in a single stack that includes all participating avatars for the assault. No need for consols - just a little patience.

[OOC: only the Seneschal puts armies into crusade mode; crusaders have to modify their standing orders to reflect the armies they are assigned to.]

3. When the time comes to storm London, all crusading nobles will join the King in storming the settlement. [OOC: we create a stack that includes all crusading avatars so they all share the traits gained.]

4. All troops who rally to the crusade will be regarded as soldiers of France and after the crusade is successful will be either disbanded or gifted to specific army commands as the Seneschal sees fit.

Sorry for my absence lately, guys. I've come down with a pretty bad case of the flue.

I might be off a day or so. In the meantime TheFlax is authorized to settle any rules disputes. As far as the Crusade goes, I'm thinking Econ has it right. The edict does seem to lay out how to do things pretty well. I'm happy to give some kind of trait for all crusaders, although it should be fairly small, or the dread guys will be left behind (maybe extra dread for people who go about the crusade in a vicious way, executing prisoners and exterminating settlements).

The Edict from Econ is well worded and is based on IC voting.

It should be used.

With the Crusade and everything I did a little housekeeping of the Order of the Fleur de Lys.

With the last from Lemongate being the information that he'll probably withdraw I'm gonna park his avatar Eloi de Montferrat in Antwerp (or close to Antwerp should it interfer with Gaspard de Neufville (Ignoramus) staying governor). I don't know whether Emergency Sessions count to the two missed Council Sessions thing, so I would refrain from killing his avatar just yet.

Beskar hasn't voted in any Council Session, nor participated in the game or the Order as far as I'm aware. His avatar Loup de Gisor should be killed off at the next opportunity!
