[Cecil XIX]

Aren't I playing the Duke of Burgundy? I thought that was Raymond de Provence?

[TheFlax]

Mix up on my part. Apologies.

[TheFlax]

RGBs are up and ready to be picked. A huge thank you to OK for sending me all of the mugshots!

[Vladimir]

How was the draft order selected? My fingernails are in serious peril!

[AussieGiant]

Well golly gosh OK, will you pick already!!??

Activity from previous games.

[_Tristan_]

Econ wants a handsome lad

[TinCow]

I need more info before I can choose (can't load up the saved game without the KotF mod, it crashes). I need to know what trait is causing Christophe de Perronne's dread, as it appears to be completely cut off. You can continue beyond me though, as if I do not select Christophe, I will be selecting Ganelon de Chaumont.

[_Tristan_]

He's Cruel and cunning (+2 dread)... Cut out just for you, Mr. Illuminati

[TinCow]

Thanks, I just found Rowan's post with the mod as well and saw it for myself. I will indeed take Christophe de Perronne.

[Zim]

That leaves Econ21 with Hermant Mauvoisin.

[Andres]

I don't know when I'll be back online and I don't want to slow this down.

Unless Rowan takes him, I'll have Thierry de Rochefort.

In case Rowan takes Thierry, I'll do with Pierre de Saint-Germain.

[TheFlax]

Last I heard, Rowan wanted Alphonse la Hire.

he still has time to change his choice until he comes and confirm this. Until then this character is reserved. Next up is woads&fang.

[woad&fangs]

I choose Bertin de Montsault.

[ULC]

I choose Bertin de Montsault.

He was my other pick

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

at the rate this is going I may be here to pick my won avatar! Woot!

[woad&fangs]

He was my other pick

He's almost perfect for the story arc I've got planned for him The fact that he has nightfighter and marks of war certainly is nice as well

[Rowan]

Last I heard, Rowan wanted Alphonse la Hire.

Yup, a nice chivalrous bureaucrat for me... now where have I played a character like that before

[econ21]

The Council is set to start Monday morning (sometime after 12 AM PST). The next two days, among other things, will be used to resolve and remaining rules issues.

With this timetable, I think we should accelerate the character selection process. Players need to have their avatars by the time the Council starts and it is unfair on people like Vladimir if they are left in limbo because of one or two no-shows.

I suggest that if Marcus Agrippa has not chosen an avatar within 24 hours of this post:

https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showp...8&postcount=77

we should skip to Cultured Drizzt Fan.

More generally, I would recommend all other people still waiting for an avatar to PM TheFlax with a ranked list of their 5 preferred avatars within 24 hours. When that time is up, theFlax can then allocate the remaining avatars - anyone not expressing a preference going to the back of the queue.

If we do that or something similar, we can be sure that everyone who has showed up will have an avatar before the Council starts on Monday.

[Cultured Drizzt fan]

nevermind I thought you were saying I was gone.......
My two top choices are
Yvon Lacaze, first choice
Bernand de Chinon

[Vladimir]

Thank you.

I sent a PM to TheFlax asking what characters remain.

[econ21]

You can just look at the unassigned characters in the first post - it's up to date.

[Vladimir]

Thanks. The "edit time" is misleading.

Edit: Okay. I'll go for Seigneur Confident (aka Gontran de Linars)

Edit 2: I'm going to call him Gontran de Loins

2 Chivalry, huh? Don't know how that will sit with your friends in Aquitaine. I don't think showing mercy towards your enemies is near the top of their to-do list.

[Vladimir]

I don't think showing mercy towards your enemies is near the top of their to-do list.

I show mercy toward their widows.

Chivalry is sadly very easy to lose, but if he wants to keep it, Vladimir's character is very welcome to join the Order of the Fleurs de Lys - as is any other like minded player.
