Out of character thread II

[Ituralde]

oh i know the Leopold cant control troop types but i gotta start off the rivalry somehow lol.

Hehe... if Leopold wasn't holed up in Vienna he'd be shredding you to cinders... verbally of course.

Vienna can hold out long enough I think. Currently I would even favour a sally again, because I thought about the situation and a sally would give the opportunity to attack each of the two stacks seperately if you're fast enough. Otherwise they would combine and I already fear what might happen if they combine and attack the depleted Militia. Either way I'm gonna loose some Militia, but should probably manage to win if I don't loose Leopold.

Kagemusha, I'd love to take out Venice, but as I mentioned a few days ago, I'm going on vacation (I'm heading to the airport in a few hours). I'll have internet access, so I can participate online, but I won't have my computer with me, so no battles.

If I can't play a battle, any battle Otto leads, like Milan is besieged for example, will be auto-calced. Heinrich and Otto are the only avatars in Italy at the moment, and I'll be away and the Kaiser's bodyguard unit is wrecked. I don't want to disrupt the campaign by my absence so all this was partly why Otto was calling for more avatars to be sent to Italy.

Believe me, if there was some way of bringing the game with me I would. But it's 15 degrees Fahrenheit out here and I need to go someplace warm. I'll be back and battle ready Friday evening (EST).

I understand completely. I hope you will have great vacation m8! In character i tend to be very gloomy about the situation,in reality i dont think we are not in world of hurt yet. Ituralde could sally out and crush the Venetians in Astria since the Venetians are in two separate armies. Im just little worried about the Venetian army coming from the Adriatic cost towards Northern Italy.But with two turns before it reaches Northern Italy we should have more troops in hand and also GH´s bodyguard unit in better shape.

GH, where's your report of the assault on Genoa? It sounds as if it's very interesting.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I have the screenshots and everything, I just lack the time to write it.

Hopefully I can find the time to do it tonight (GMT-5) but if not, then definitely tomorrow. I wish to do it justice.

[Warluster]

AM I still part of this?

[Dutch_guy]

I daresay that's up to you, would you like to ?

[Verdizzy]

This looks like a very interesting game. I'd love to join in if it's not too late. Can anyone bring me up to speed on what I need to do to join in?

Thanks!

[GeneralHankerchief]

Welcome Verdizzy, Jalf, Bizzair, and anyone else I missed!

The first post in this thread should tell you a lot. To get up to speed on what's currently happening, I suggest you read the Chancellor Reports Thread as well as the Imperial Library (stickied). Once you know what you're doing, feel free to post in-character in the Imperial Diet deliberations.

Welcome, Verdizzy - all you need to do is pick a House and post your choice here. You'd be made an Elector of that House, with full rights to vote and pontificate in the Diet; in due course, you'll be given an avatar (general).

I recommend reading up some of the more recent Chancellor's reports and Diet deliberations, posting in character when you feel comfortable doing so.

I'd like to join the House of Austria.

Alrite, I am stil lvery confused as to where to start. I am kinda clueless as to what has happened in the past, and where I go abouts first

for ex. To start laws etc and debate. What do I refer to myself as, and what are my powers/responsibilities/tasks?

[Jalf]

Is there a single place to always find the most recent savegame? (I'm guessing http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Up.../pbmupload.php, but would be nice to be sure I'm not wasting my time looking at obsolete campaign maps... ;))

[Bizzair]

Alrite, I am home!

Time to read every thread that has KotR at the front ;)

[Bizzair]

Okay.. I have read.

I am still kinda of confused as to where I start. Will I have my own character in the Imperial Library, and will my name be listed with my own general.

And where do I start, just get right in with negotiating new Laws etc. Not much I can do is there but do that for now.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Thanks to Tamur's tireless efforts, we now have M2TW avatars available to use. Do we want to do the same thing as Will of the Senate and pick the avatars that correspond with our character?
