Yeah I've noticed a rise of Build orders threads for newly conquered settlements in the Chancellor's Report threat. Some people seem to forget that the city they just conquered still has to be given to their house in the end.

Oh and concerning the battle against the Mongols. I don't really plan on getting killed in that battle, but facing a Mongol army three times my size may well spell disaster in the end. I can take the responsibility for Leopold dying but I don't want anyone to be mad at me if I get his character killed. That's why I would feel better if no other avatars came along. Less to worry about.
