King of the Romans OOC thread XI

[Privateerkev]

*wakes up, pads over to the computer, rubs his eyes,*

And realizes Jan has just been made King for life...



Oh man I need coffee...

[TinCow]

TC: I got a weird question. I was looking at Jan in the library and he has a trait missing. I think I'm using the mod so is this a problem on my end?

PK is correct.
His entry is missing "Understands Trade" (GoodTrader 1) and is incorrect with "AspiringCommander" (GoodCommander 2) which should be "Promising Commander".

TC, can you please make sure that you have the fixes installed correctly and working?

They're installed. Most likely I made an error while cutting and pasting. I've done that a few times before. I'll fix it in a bit.

[Privateerkev]

I've already told GH that I liked his story. But, the whole time, the scene from Spaceballs, where Dark Helmet was playing with his dolls, was running through my head.




"Oh...your helmet is sooo big!"

[GeneralHankerchief]

Yeah, that was its inspiration.

[Privateerkev]

[Dark Helmet is in his room, playing with Spaceballs dolls. Sandurz opens the door.]
Sandurz: Lord Helmet.
[Dark Helmet hurries to hide the dolls.]
Dark Helmet: WHAT??
Sandurz: You're needed on the bridge, sir.
Dark Helmet: KNOCK ON MY DOOR!! KNOCK NEXT TIME!!
Sandurz: Sorry, sir.
Dark Helmet: [pause] Did you see anything?
Sandurz: No, sir. I didn't see you playing with your dolls again.
Dark Helmet: Good!

Ignoramus: Make some PM space...

Diet Sessions when we have more CAs than Edicts give me hives.

[AussieGiant]

Diet Sessions when we have more CAs than Edicts give me hives.

Totally $%#$ing agree!!

[Tamur]

Fritz is working to fix that

[Privateerkev]

This argument in the Diet is giving me a headache in real life.

[Stig]

Can we question the position of the King of the Outremer, so that the Dukes will need to hold a council?

[GeneralHankerchief]

Now if CA 12.2 were passed this would all be so much easier.

[Stig]

How did Helmut manage to reach the Diet? He's in deep Russia, sure we can warp in, but this is kinda unrealistic


btw Kage, Helmut is count of Hamburg

[Kagemusha]

Ok. I have assumed the role of Helmut Von Hamburg. I like his stats very much, would be nice to move from martyrs, to vicious character.EDIT: Im sorry,but he didnt have any titles in the Imperial library.My mistake. I can delete his entrance to the Diet if necessary.

[Privateerkev]

Can we question the position of the King of the Outremer, so that the Dukes will need to hold a council?

Well the council is for succession disputes.

The charter says the Kaiser appoints a King.

The Kaiser appointed a King.

Not sure where the dispute is.

PK come on man...Stig's pulling your chain

[Stig]

PK come on man...Stig's pulling your chain

Am I?

[GeneralHankerchief]

I think I remember in one of the CAs passed last session it said the King could be impeached if a certain amount of Dukes agree.

[Privateerkev]

Yup, CA 11.6 is still active due to Econ's intervention.

A King can be impeached if the Kaiser and two Dukes agree.

[AussieGiant]

Can we not talk about impeachment please...

...it's like a drug or something.


There's nothing to impeach about.

[FactionHeir]

All this legal quabble in the diet gives me a headache...

[Privateerkev]

I'm actually coming down with a migrain... o_O

[Kagemusha]

Wrong thread.

[Stuperman]

Are the influance gained by being a count/crusader count and a Duke/king cumlative?

if they are then the whole c-counts being more influential than the king goes out the window as long as the KOTO is a crusader count first, then named the king. He could be count of an Imperial Province in the outremer.

Influance could work something like:

count +1
C-count +2
King +1 (cumlative)
Duke +4

or C-counts could be +1, BUT get to keep a county in Europe giving them more influance than regular counts. It would also help for avatars Spawned in the Outremer, as they aren't really Crusaders per say. If they get a county in the outremer then they would have the same voting power as european counts, which is right.

which would make it:

counts +1
c-counts +1 (+1 european county, +2 total)
King OTO +1 (+1 outremer county, +1 european county, +3 total)
Dukes +4

and any avatar that spawned in the outremer and got a county would have +1 like a european count, as they haven't really sacrificed anything to go to the outremer.

[FactionHeir]

Stuperman.

In the last diet TC abolished the extra influence CCs were getting up until that point.

From an OOC perspective, maybe giving the KoO the same influence as a CC at least would be fair. Currently, he gets a bonus of 0 as he is not a CC.

[AussieGiant]

^#$# me Stuperman. Lets not go there.

It's not cumulative as far as I am concerned.

[Stuperman]

I thought the whole arguement IC right now started after PK proposed changing the charter to give the KOTO +2 influance, I figured that was from +1, not +0. OOPS.

[Tamur]

How about we all just say +d4 to hitpoints on levelling and leave it at that?

[FactionHeir]

So what prevents people from just rerolling until they get +4?

[Privateerkev]

Actually I would go from +1 to +2. That would give me more influence than some Crusader Counts but the same as others. (the ones who are Chancellors or ex-chancellors) TC and I hashed this out in the last OOC thread last Diet. Being King gives me +1 because a Kaiser rule dispute would pretty much rule that I am a CC for influence purposes since there is no King listed in the influence. We're going by long precedent on that one. CA 12.4 would simply give the King+2 and would not be stacked. I would not claim to be both a CC and a King.
