Yup, you were right. Got the save. I will now update my fixes and then on to Jerusalem.

Library Bios have been added for Elberhard and Helmut von Hamburg. AFAIK they have no yet been assigned to players.

My battle report is finished.

OverKnight, where's Ulrich at the moment? I hope he doesn't get sunk by an Egyptian fleet.

**OverKnight** · 05-10-2007, 09:07

Ulrich and the fleet are off the Greek coast south of Corinth. You'll be in the Holy Land in 3-4 turns. Before the Crusade ends, I'll make sure to move his fleet first.

As for getting sunk, due to the house rule of 2 units a ship, the fleet is 5 Holks. I doubt Ulrich is in danger.

On the unassigned avatars (one Franconian and one Swabian), my understanding is that there are only Austrian players who do not currently have avatars. If any such players wants to "borrow" one of the new avatars until an Austrian spawns, that would be fine.

Now would also be a good time for any lurkers who want to join the game to sign up - they should be able to get an avatar and jump right in.

Otherwise, we will just leave the two new generals unassigned, so that players whose avatars die will have a "resurrection hulk" to respawn into. (For sci-fi fans, yes, that revelation means GH is the last of the final five cylons - which might explain a lot, when you think about it.

Ummm. . .we're already Vampires it seems, Heinrich's reign was 90 years, do we need to add psychotic robots to the mix?

Of course I have been tempted to have Otto say, "Sometimes you gotta roll a hard six" in a battle report.

To GH's credit, Conrad is hardly a clone of Heinrich, quite the opposite. When Otto kicks it, I'm not sure I'll be able to establish a different character as easily.

Edit: I am periodically checking direct2drive's site looking for their patch release, no joy yet. Very frustrating.

I am still here and I have been patiently waiting. "Borrowing" one now would not feel right at this point. However, if Meckil heads towards being a spinster I may have to rethink my options.

I will have to ask Ichigo if he is still playing.If he is i think he should get the Franconian avatar.
