    Lightbulb Assassins + Acumen

    I tried to do the trick which gives the King an acumen bonus when sending a lot of assassins after him but that didn't really work out well. Either I got the "virtue" of being practically immune to Assassins or I got some really bad vices.

    What's the number of (failed) assassinations which gives a general/heir/king the bonus of acumen?

    It's the nervous line.

    You test with one assassin to see which line you'll end up with. More attempts will never change the line but will only move it further. The last one usually sucks. The lines I call

    Hard to kill. Bonus vs assassins.

    Strong security. Bonus to valour, but decreases accuman

    Rough justice (or something like that). Increases dread.

    Nervous. Gives bonus to accuman, but decreases helth (easier to kill on the battlefield). Gives a maximun of two accuman, but you'll lose if you move futher on this line (it's two or three attemts).

    That's why reloading or patience is recommended using this method.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
