Out of character thread III

Intriguing, if somewhat academic, dilemma, TinCow. If it arises again, I would feel free to play it how you wish. I am sure we could role play whatever the outcome is, although we'd be breaking new ground in deciding which House Max was in (the family tree convention clashing with the "House is immutable" rule).

Savegame right back at you, TinCow.

I'll post a battle report and answer PMs later.

I'm guessing you won, GH? Anyway, things look bad for that Alpine fort. I am curious to know what exactly is in that French army.

The spy next to the army checked them out. It's all assorted militia, let by a unit of mailed knights. Only a threat if they can catch something they outnumber. However, there are reinforcements for it coming from Marseilles.

Too bad captain army battles are autoresolved. Otherwise 2 mounties or mailed could take care of that French stack

Hmm... should you guys start protecting your characters against assassinations with spy after what happened to Sigismund?

It caught me totally off-guard. I can count on one hand the number of family members I've had assassinated in M2TW, and I've played several very long games. The fact that it was one of our best generals, the previous Chancellor, AND the commander of the only force opposing France, just made my mouth drop open when I saw it.
