KH Succession Game Thread.

[Bootsiuv]

Ok, this will be the official thread for our KH Succession Game. The rules are as follows:

We will be playing with R:TW v. 1.5 with EB v. 0.81a V2 (also known as v. 0.82) We will be using a script provided by Spoofa which can be found at http://files.filefront.com/City+mod+.../fileinfo.html (This is a slightly modified script which incorporates City Mod (Thanks to MarcusAureliusAntoninus) and AI Balancing Mod(Thanks to Redmeth and mlp071). We will also be using the Formation Mod which can be found at https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=86904.

House Rules:

1. The Hegemon will be played in the order that players signed up.

2. Terms will last for two years i.e. 8 turns.

3. Generals must lead invading armies. If the general is killed, the army must head back to Koinon soil until they meet up with a new general.

4. Governors will have limited control over what is recruited and built in their cities.

Note: I was thinking about splitting up the budget between the three initial city-states, but that seems overly complicated. Instead, the Hegemon will construct buildings and recruit soldiers as he deems fit. Special requests can be made on behalf of any city-state at any time, although the Hegemon is not required to follow any suggestions. I think this will save time and keep things simple. We will still have a council in between terms to discuss broader issues like going to war, special constructions, etc. The Hegemon, while encouraged to follow the council, is not required to do so, and must be able to change plans if the situation requires it.

5. Leading Generals must be voted by a majority of the council. This is one rule which the Hegemon must always abide by. If the leading general is killed, an emergency council meeting must be called so that a new general may be voted in.

Ok, I'm up first.

I will be playing the first 8 turns.

I have 3 proposals for the council.

1. Areus takes the Spartan Garrison and attacks Korinthos on the first turn.
2. Chremonides takes the Athenian garrison and attacks Chalkis on the second turn, provided Antigonos withdraws to the north.
3. Our fleet should be cut by two/thirds i.e. 2 of our 3 fleet units should be disbanded. I prefer to keep one around so Rhodos isn't cut off from the rest of the Empire.

I'll wait twenty four hours for anyone to respond with suggestions and/or criticism, then I'll start the game.

BTW, The players who have characters already are welcomed to roleplay there characters, and a certain attachment to your city-state (which will likely change many times) is a nice touch. I'll be roleplaying the old geezer Areus from this point on. Well, heres to hoping we have a good time.

ah shouldnt we also use the merc script? it really helps out alot, oh and considering im your son do i still get a vote in the council?

[KuKulzA]

Rhodios?

alright, as in the ethnicity...

lead by example Bootsiuv, I'm sure I will fully understand when I look at your frequent updates, screenshots, and appeals to the council

[Spoofa]

Akrotates votes nay to your first proposal, we should wait one turn and allow the large army led by Antiginos to head northbound, also i suggest sending a diplomat to secure an alliance with Phyruss of Epiros to help with the destruction of Macedonia.

I also recommend clearing land by the coast of Sparte to allow for sea trade into our city.

I also give my vote for the disbandment of 2/3 of our navy, your reasoning for leaving the other third is reasonable, and acceptable.

But sending athen's garrison to assault Chalkis is a bad move I think, It would leave athen's open for attack with little defenders, at least with the garrison in athens we have the hope of holding the city in the event of a seige, after we secure Korinthos then, and only then, do I suggest focusing our forces north or eastward.

Akrotates has spoken

[Spoofa]

also can i suggest like, a list of the buildings present in each settlement and the one's possible to build? i know it would get really tedious to keep up to date but its really hard to ask for buildings when you dont know which one's you can actually make

(P.S. I wont get my new computer until monday, I can still play RTW but would really prefer not to since my current computer give me low framerate, but I guess it doesnt really matter)
