OverKnight, you have a battle against Milan. I'm uploading the save game now. It's kotr1122.

[OverKnight]

All hail Chancellor Ignoramus the Rapid!

Barring any unforseen circumstances I should be able to get cracking on it now.

Edit: I have downloaded the save, it loads fine. I'm going offline to play it. Might take me a bit since I'm still not used to taking screenies while fighting.

[Ignoramus]

The save game is up.

Hell this is going fast!!

Excellent. Seems I need to take my work Laptop home for the weekend.

[OverKnight]

I have decided I loathe Genoese crossbowmen. Missile troops should go squish when you hit them with cavalry and not fight like rabid Spartans.

I've updated the Table with our influence, activity and stats. I need to hear confirmation about the possible appointment of Dutch_guy and Overknight as Counts.

Also, how are we treating Stewards in terms of influence: +2 like a Duke or +1 like a Count? I'm working on the latter assumption and have also put down FLYdude as the Steward as Franconia.

I have taken DMu off the list; there are some other pretty inactive players who probably should come off too. We may need more players - 10 votes cast this session was rather low - but I will hold recruitment until every active player has an avatar.

PS: For future reference, please can you avoid png format images in the battle report thread, please, Ignoramus? I think they are much larger than jpg format and take for ages to load.

Thanks for the update. DMu has written me two PMs over the last weeks excusing his absence. Since no further participation has been coming from him I'm ok with you taking him off. It's not like he can't join again anytime and the post of Third Elector of Austria is vacant anyhow.

You missed to update AussieGiants activity though, as he has participated in the last voting. I would not be opposed to have at least one more player for the House of Austria. I can't even get my own Edicts passed.
Of course not having an avatar might not be incentive enough to join the game, so I'm fine if we wait a little.

I can switch houses if necessary. In Swabia we have five of us and as im the fifth,if you guys think that would help balance the factions,i can kill my old character and move houses.
