Good job. Hope PO isn't too red

You posting battle reports or screens with odds and victory?

**econ21** · 06-14-2007, 23:53

I'll write a story about Edessa; the other fight will be merely an addendum. I've got screenies of the casualties etc so you will get that info. Probably tomorrow evening though.

What!!??

OK you're gross man!!

Otto's wife!! Come on brother that's just getting out of hand...

**FactionHeir** · 06-14-2007, 23:55

Women are sparse in our empire. Most of our nobles are bachelors (including poor Hans)

AussieGiant, careful how you talk about my sister. What is gross about a widow in her thirties finding solace in the arms of a younger man?

Come to think of it, weren't you just advertising for a wife in the Diet a minute ago?

thx for the tip on the files

Righto guys.
Here's a list of possible battles that will be fought this turn. Certainly not final and not definite, but be prepared and do respond if you would be willing if the battle occurred:

Any von Kastilien vs Russian army near Thorn
Any von Kastilien vs token force guarding Thorn bridge
econ21 against a tiny rebel force near Edessa (let me know if you want me to take over and fight it. 3 militia units)
Warluster vs a Danish army blocking his way
Xdeathfire against the French besiegers

I'm always up for a fight - but it would be tomorrow evening. Must sleep now...

So Baghdad was sack by the second wave of mongols?

There's nothing wrong with her physically...I was strangely attracted to her, but that's another story

It's just the whole concept of OK writing about it himself...it's like a three way gone wrong and he's in charge...you know what I mean?

If I could marry your sister I would econ, but she's a widow and that's just not cool...or at least I thought it wasn't until just now when I went into the Sotries section for the first time in a week

I'm sorry to have offended your delicate sensibilities AG.

Econ21 hit the nail on the head, and also I'm trying to portray Elsebeth as a sort of Lucrezia Borgia type character. Without conventional means of power (Lands, titles or martial fame), Elsebeth is using the tools at her disposal to ensure Otto's and her own legacy, and of course to maintain her influence in the Reich after the loss of her husband.

Frankly, I find her a more interesting character to play with at this point, simply because nothing has really happened to Matthias yet. I'm sure that will change, but it's fun having her as bridge.

**TinCow** · 06-15-2007, 02:25

I've got to admit, after playing one character for the 5 months getting a new one breathes new energy into the game. At least for me.

**GeneralHankerchief** · 06-15-2007, 02:35

It took a while for me to get attached to Conrad, partially because I was having so much fun with Heinrich. I think the best thing in regards to making your new character your own is to get him involved in a complex story that really brings out his identity.
