    Weekend is busy as always. So I give Tristan permission to move my avatar this turn. If he needs it to fight the Danes for example.

    Sorry OK. Our Duchy was small to begin with and then I ran off and did something silly like that. In case you were wondering, your IC order/suggestion was very clear. However, I knew that was the only time I had in the next couple of days to fight a battle, so I decided to have a bit of fun. Alas, those dang mounted sergeants are a wee bit faster than I remember them to be. I hope the Duchy has some luck in recruiting new members.

    I will rejoin the game at some point but not right away. I'm thinking in a few seneschal terms when Bertin's (so far unmentioned)bastard children reach avatar age. On the positive side, I think I can make a rather entertaining story out of Bertin's death. Hopefully I'll find some time this week to write it.

    I sure will miss Bertin, though. He was my favorite avatar so far

    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

    That's a shame, on the bright side considering your stories there will be many bastards to choose from.

    Mounted Sergeants are ideal for chasing down Family Members for better or worse.

    What a shame. May I ask what his age was? I haven't been keeping track.

    Piss poor timing indeed.

    But a good day for Thomas de Saint-Amand, who in the space of a year has gained three territories and a Duchy. If I was more paranoid, I would think he hired those Germans. . .

    J'Accuse KnightnDay!

    As for spawning RGBs: I think we should let the new recruits have dibs first then those of us going a second time around. My understanding of the 5 turn wait for a RGB is that it was meant to curtail players developing a wasteful attitude toward RGBs. So if you die in a battle, you wait a while for the next clone slug, unless a family member is available. What's a bit more iffy is if those of us who died of old age or by the actions of others need to wait as well.

    Personally, I'm not in a huge rush to get another avatar.

    I've updated part of the Library today, and though it's not all finished I hope it'll be up-to-date by the end of the week. In the meantime, here's the fully current Province Ownership chart, now color-coded for House ownership!


    If anybody sees any errors, please point them out. I plan to update this in more-or-less real time, rather than every ten turns.

    Pamplona also belongs to House Aquitaine (edit: to Prince Louis of HA), assigned at the last Council session.

    Valencia belongs to Barbus Selvo, assigned at the same time as Pamplona.

    That's all I spotted, other than the white being nearly invisible it looks great!

    Nice job! This should be very helpful.

    I don't know whether Alain de Rohan accepted London so not sure whom it belongs to.
    Also I think it would be great if you could put the owner of Granada as unratified. That way you know at a glance which provinces have not yet been ratified.

    There might be a slight delay until the next turn is posted as I'll have both to relieve the siege of York and do the Senechal's work for the turn...

    Expect it Saturday at the latest... Will keep you posted...

    Btw, do you prefer a 24-hour period per turn or a 48-hour as has been the case until now ?

    Quite a few players download saves just to make moves (as opposed to fight battles), so 48-hours seems a more realistic interval. It also allows more time for the in character forum exchanges to keep up with in game events.

    Not in the Conseil, at least.
