King of the Romans OOC thread IX

[Stig]

I'll fight my battle somewhere today, will post if I pick up the save

[AussieGiant]

Can I ask that we stop using proxies?

It's getting very confusing trying to keep up with everyone's retinue servants.

Mine are involved as you all know but Arnold will always be present.

Call it express horse delivery or whatever. It's intense now so I'd like to know what you all think.

[Stig]

Letting an aide speak is an easy way of not getting your avatar getting the blame it seems

[AussieGiant]

Well I'm coming after PK and his Tueton. If he wants to hide behind the Black and White cross then it wont work

Igno your PM box is full!!

[OverKnight]

Ummm. . .just curious, but how would we handle it if two people actually decided to fight a duel? We can only posture so much before the gauntlet is thrown down.

Would rolling of twenty-sided dice be involved?

[Ignoramus]

PM box has space, AussieGiant.

[AussieGiant]

Thanks. Response sent.

Mate,

I have a dread knight. That shiet will wipe the floor of most things.

Yeah, you should be lucky, Arnold himself is still a little kid

[Stig]

Taking the save now

[AussieGiant]

I don't understand the Diet OOC comment "your dead m8".

[Ignoramus]

Sorry AussieGiant, more PM space.

[Stig]

Fought and won:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Loads of Poles have been executed

Well Markus Steffen is

[McIwoo]

post edited. As said in the Diet thread, I think it'll look better if my post is deleted.

Have fun guys...

You know, maybe we should have a succession dispute. I mean, the game-designated faction leader doesn't have to be our Kaiser, does he?

Well, that would depend on whether we can pass a CA on that. Current rules I think is to just use the game-appointed one, but that section is not *-marked, so can be amended.

In game, we can easily fix the traits to reflect that, but the only problem will be that any actions done that normally affect the leader only (assassination/spying/diplomacy) go on the game-designated avatar. Of course the thing with authority also comes into play.
Both of these can be fixed manually by transferring over traits/ancillaries via console and manually counting authority.
The only thing that would be outside our control is army rebellion (chance that armies go rebel) as that checks the game-appointed leader only. That one's quite minor though.

Yep, CA required, but if it did happen (not saying it will) I think the easiest thing would simply be to leave the in-game traits alone. If the Emperor is not the game-appointed faction leader, just mentally transfer all faction-leader specific traits from the faux-leader to the real leader, subtracting from one and adding to another. If you did it manually, things would get very confusing and screwed up, especially for traits that gain in strength over time.

[TinCow]

Crap I'm just catching up on all the reading.

TC,

I'll give you 100 florins for Lyse? Deal?

I'll bow out without complaint if she is offered to you instead, but I don't have the power to decide that. Lothar isn't quite so despicable that he would whore out his own fiancée. It's pretty much an issue as to whether Siegfried will do what Jobst's will requests or not.

Well that's not going to happen.

I'm concerned Austria may in fact die out entirely. IC I think we should let it happen if it does in the game.

I really don't want to bend game mechanics at all. It will get far to difficult to deal with outside of the game, instead of just adjusting IC which would be easier to deal with due to our collective imagination we all seem to posses

[AussieGiant]

Ituralde,

Who is Count von Hamburg?

[Ituralde]

Jan von Hamburg, of course! Don't really know if he's Count though, but a sudden ascension to power can make you a little uneasy about all those little details.

[TinCow]

FYI, we have four empty Bio slots in the Library, which means we are four avatars under out peak at the moment. Hence the scarcity. I think Franconia is about as flush with children as it's possible to be, so hopefully the other houses should start getting more soon. We're about due for a new influx with all the deaths. There are still a few more geezers about to kick it as well, though fortunately those are Franconians, so they won't siphon more players off of the other houses.

[Stig]

Aye, and when the Kastillien brothers get married there will truly be loads of Franconians.

[AussieGiant]

Well tell him to stop insulting me Ituralde.

I really don't know how anyone expects me to roll over IC considering I'm taking shots from left right and centre and I didn't start any of it.

[Stig]

Actually he did:

I demand that the Duke of Austria and Count von Hamburg stop their bickering.

[StoneCold]

TC, don't we have Emperor Jobst char stats somewhere? I feel sad that in the Mausoleum where he is buried and he is only remembered as a Prinz.

[TinCow]

I am going to load up old saves and take pre-death shots of Jobst and Matthias this evening.

[TinCow]

Have fun guys...

Are you leaving the game? I really hope not. There are plenty of avatars available at the moment, though not in Bavaria. We can earmark the next Bavarian for you if you want to stay in that House. Again, I'm really sorry I got you killed. I felt horrible about it when it happened.

[Stig]

I think Ituralde can agree to something like that


Seriously tho McIwoo you can easely become a Franconian, or take the last Swabian.
Or you might have to wait another 16 years or so if Lothar can get to his job

[econ21]

Stig - please can you upload your post battle save? I'd like to fight my battle now.

[Stig]

Oh cock (am I allowed to say that at a moment like this)

I totally forgot about it, and don't have it here really, will do as fast as possible, but may take a while.
Sorry m8
