    Yes. I have tested that particular point several times now and you can definitely receive an offer for the same guild at the same city at least 5 times (I give up after that - only being able to collect one piece of data per turn is slowwww there's only so fast i can hurry those turns through )
    Presumably the offering of guilds continues as long as you meet the prereqs tho i could be wrong still, it might just be a higher threshold than my patience will tolerate!!!

    Anyway, I'm still busy testing, but the order in which each of the guilds are offered is definitely not random, still working out the exact behaviour though - there's a few peculiarities in my dataset, but i think i'm grokking them.

    The keyword's in desc_strat definitely give a bonus to that city's 'reputation' for the particular guild - just working out the size of it now. I imagine it's possible to add other guilds as 'hidden resources' - like assassins_muslim_guild to where Alamut fortress is?

    The highest level city/castle seems to get any guild offer first; when cities/castles are of the same level then whichever has the highest 'rep' gets the offer, if that's equal....not sure yet (i think it's the westernmost region that gets it, but that's only cos i can't find any other explanation yet)!!! They seem to be only things that matter - there is no correlation that i can find with population size, PO, income or governor.

    Well, that's an update. As long as i don't run into trouble xmas shopping I think i might have the inner workings cracked by the end of this weekend. Cheers.

    Well the westernmost city doesn't sound that bad. The regions are numbered from northwest, toward the east, then south, however it's not a very good tiebreaker... Who knows what the guys at CA did though ;)
