Rules

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

1) Turns to be completed within 24 hours of being notified

2) Break any rule, abuse any bug and you will be punished. If you are unsure of something pm me or the admin.

3) 2 forts per region per player with a minimum of 4 units per fort.

4) Ships within a blockaded port are not allowed to move out without first defeating the blockade.

5) When you upload a turn you must send a pm or vm to the next player.

6) Ships in a port can not be used to hide armies. Armies that are defeated and withdraw to ships do not count as long as they are moved out at the earliest opertunity while still complying with rule 8.

7) Pictures must be taken of all player vs player battles showing the odds and the outcome. Army composition and the flags of any units involved must not be edited.

8) Armies that are defeated in battle by a player that comes after them in the turn list may not move the following turn. This is to make it fair for people who are defeated by players that come before them in the turn list.

9) Heroic victories are banned, anyone who gets one must keep reloading until they get a different result.

10) Players can not sally forth from a city or forts with the intention of losing. This includes using this to draw an army into a city and attack
surrounding units.

11)There is a 1 turn peace- This includes not being able to build a fort in enemy territory

12) You can not use princesses to steal enemy generals.

13) Gifted settlements must disband all but one unit.

14) No assassinations allowed (You're safe from my shadow babies! xD)

13) No building destruction if settlement is at risk of being captured.

[Mithridate]

I request that @Myth and @Nightbringer are given a chance to join this and preferably first pick of factions.

So If we could all wait with joining until they have decided and picked?

[joerock22]

I don't mind if you want to honor Mithridate's request, but I'd like to put my name down for a spot. My factions in order of preference are: Tyrell, Greyjoy, Stannis.

We shall await @Myth and @Nightbringer first :) But Stannis is taken. You will ofc get 1st priority if your choices remain :)

[Myth]

Hmm, I'd like to take a look at them but the version of the mod that I have might be outdated. I see the generic M2TW special units and names like "house Joffrey"

I also lack the submod required. Which is the latest version of the mod?

For now I'd say House Tyrell.

[Luume]

Stark or Tyrell please!

[Narsils_Shards]

If one of the new bloods doesn't want them I shall like either the Martells' or Greyjoys'.

I'll take Greyjoy unless Nightbringer wants it etc.

[complete noob:(]

Martell. In for a snooze fest :P

Unless of course Myth or Nightbringer want them. But I doubt they do. Rather boring.

[SoulGamesInc]

I'll sail to Dorne and we can have a 1v1. :P

[complete noob:(]

How bout you don't?

Last time I was Martell and some ironborn decided to visit, it was miserable. Too much mobility vs my soldiers struggling to march through desert.

I will see if I can upload the submod for you :) I will provide a link in the OP when it's ready :)

[Duxx]

The youngbloods files linked in the op are enough you don't need the original westeros mod. Just download the youngblood files and put them in medieval/mods.

[Myth]

Will do. Should I remove the Westeros mod itself? I doubt there'd be any conflict.

I have some questions about the game and rules:

#1: How do we win? By standard GC victory conditions via province conquest?
#2: This is a free for all and we do our diplomacy as we see fit, right? Is allied victory allowed or not?
#3: "There is a 1 turn peace- This includes not being able to build a fort in enemy territory" - this means we can't do offensive actions on turn 1 or am I missing something?
#4: We usually use the @ symbol to ping people instead of sending PMs here. It's a system I asked to be implemented to specifically make hotseats go smootehr.
#5: I find it that using the .org file uploader is more convenient, as the files stay there forever. If we want to revisit a specific turn it's easier to dig the file out. The only thing you must remember is to archive the save file before uploading it to prevent any corruption.
#6: Would you guys be interested in starting a hotseat in SS or another mod? We also like playing the Kingdoms expansions around here, It'd be fun to start up a new Britannia or Teutonics game. As far as lead battles is concerned, SS and the Kingdoms expansions all work well with them.

No need to remove the westeros mod, but you can do anyways. The youngbloods mod is standalone

1. The winning faction must either conquer all territories or have all living lords bend the knee to them.
2. It is a free for all and as with a game of thrones backstabbing may take place (I rarely do it, but it's fun :P). Alliance victories aren't allowed, all remaining lords must declare for one king in the end who will be declared winner.
3. You can move into enemy territory but in doing so are vulnerable to being attacked on turn 1 (As seen in Tag team HS and others in twc). In summary: You cannot build a fort in enemy territory, nor attack any enemy units in enemy territory. However if any unit enters your land on turn 1 you can attack them :) If you want me to give an example I shall do if it isn't clear enough.
4. We shall use that then, although these rules have been taken from a twc forum and us twc'ers will need time to adjust :P
5. It depends on people's preferences, sometimes the uplaoder on twc didn't work for some people
6. SS wasn't popular on twc (I myself love it though and would be interested in playing some, although I will have to see how much time I have free), lead battles in SS only really works against AI. I wouldn't like to see somebody take a fortress with a stack in with 2 crossbow militia and a GB xD

Hope that's been helpful ^^ feel free to PM me if you want to know more :)

[Noah Holmdin]

If stark is free and no one else wanna play as them, i would love to try :)

[joerock22]

Technically I think I claimed Greyjoy before Soul did. But I won't make a fuss, as long as you give me Joffrey. I've never tried them before, so I'll give it a shot.

[SoulGamesInc]

Your welcome to take Greyjoy if you want it Joe. There's no other faction i want if you've taken Greyjoy, so i'll drop out of this HS if that's the case.

[Myth]

Wow, units are expensive. 5000 gold for some ironborn guard? And considering that we can't upgrade settlements nor build new ports, how do we make money? Do we all go for the gold mines a certain blond haired family owns?

[SoulGamesInc]

Ironborn Guard is actually a general, not a unit mate. ;)

The Ironborn make money by raiding. Sack lannisport, Casterly rock or Oldtown and you never have to worry about cash again. Farming is also lucrative in this mod.

I really don't mind taking Joffrey instead.

[SoulGamesInc]

So long as your fine with it, Greyjoy is the only faction i'm interested in for this HS. :P

[Nightbringer]

I'll go with House Baratheon of King's Landing. Get my Joffrey on!

[Narsils_Shards]

Guess I'll take House Stark as the other houses I put in for where taken.

[Luume]

People asking for factions that have already been requested won't work :/

I can't get a freakin' break. Nightbringer was one of the guys who had priority. So I'll just bow out of this, since there's obviously no place for me. Have fun, guys.

[SoulGamesInc]

Here's the current situation...

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

House Lannister - Emperor of Hell
House Tyrell - Myth
House Stark - MrNoahSE
House Arryn - Dr Mac
House Greyjoy - SoulGamesInc
Baratheon of Storm's End -
Baratheon of King's Landing - Joerock22
Baratheon of Dragonstone - Mithridate
House Tully - Riverknight
House Martell - Completenoob:(

If Joe wants Greyjoy and Night wants Joffrey, i am willing to sacrifice and play as Renly i guess. ;)

[joerock22]

It's up to you. I'm okay with not playing in this one. I'm sure there will be other new hotseats.

[Narsils_Shards]

Sorry Luume, forgot about your post.
