Question and Answer

Zoidberg is right for the most part about how we are going about representing the Empire, however it hasn't exactly been set in stone. The Empire WILL be one faction, and most likely what will happen is we will have 'special' units for the Empire which will be recruitable only in their home provinces, and will wear the uniform of that province. The rest of the Empire army will be represented by the uniform of Altdorf, Red primary with blue secondary.

I have a question of my own concerning the Empire, actually. The area known as Sylvania is technically considered Imperial territory, however the hold the Empire has over the province is negligable. Graf Alberich Haupt-Anderssen, the Elector-count of Stirland, oversees the cursed territory, but not many bother venturing into it. The major town in Sylvania is Waldenhof, which is ruled by the count of Sylvania, Rudgar von Walden. Getting to the point - Will the Vampire Counts start with this province, or will it be a very weak Imperial province bordered by Vampire Counts?

A very similar situation is in Bretonnia. The province of Moussilon is notorious for Blood Dragon vampires, and has for years been a cursed land within Bretonnia, even though the Bretonnians consider this area part of the Realm.

My personal opinion is that Sylvania and Moussilon should both be given to Vampire Counts, as without them their starting position would be pathetic. Fluff-wise, it also makes perfect sense. I'm almost certain there are more walking dead in Moussilon and Sylvania then there are living there... What's the official word on this?
