Howdy guys! I am a longtime player of EB, but I just happened across this today.

How do I get started?

Also, I ran your saves to make sure that we were running the same version: I seem to be able to play your campaign without installing your PBM mod- but I will install it anyway.

You have to install the PBM mod since we are using different EBBS script and there are some other changes(important to the one who is ending the save montly) there.

Also, we have one FM available. You can view hin in the first post. If you don't like him then I can always recruit a RBG for you.

However:

2.6 Patronage system

Incase a Player wants to join the game but there is no avatar available at that time then he may ask one of the existing Players to be his Patron.
Patrons pay the recruitment cost of a RBG from their private finances. New player is then considered his Client.
Patrons receive +1 Influence bonus for every Client they have during Council Sessions.
Clients have to repay the recruitment cost to the Patrons in order to end the patronage.
Clients cannot own Estates.
If Clients end the patronage before they have repayd the recruitment cost then Patrons can during the next Council Session prosecute the Client and demand the Council to punish him.

I installed your mods, everything is in working order.

Is part of your script so that recruited generals don't give a penalty for being in cities? I hope so, or else we would have some awful unrest problems!

Recruit me a general please.
I saw that guy ingame (Hermon Alexandreianos). To be honest, he is much suited for being a character who just governs a core city of ours, as he seems to have traits that reduce squalor in a settlement he governs, so maybe we should send him off to one of our other big crowded cities for governing.

On that note, if clients cannot own estates, how exactly are they supposed to pay back their patron? Fight an excessive amount of battles against huge enemy armies? Or trade boats? Personally, I don't want an estate anyway, I want them trades.

Yes, Clients can use trade routes. These generate more money than estates. However, check the game once in a while and resign the trade contract.

Recruited general trait will be removed from RBG by me.
