    Well, thats what I got from econ. I had a question awhile back on if you were freehold if your father "ever was" Duke or if your father "is" Duke. Econ ruled on the former so thats what I'm going by. Otherwise we would have no freeholds left if we used the latter.

    Interpreting, not rewriting.

    The way I figure it, the settlement of a freehold Count is like property. If your father was Duke, you become a Count through inheritance. The settlement can't be taken away from you even when your father dies and a new Duke appears.

    The settlement of a bonded Count is like a tenancy and your lease can be revoked.

    I'm in a Citadel (can't adjust tax rate) with a decent garrison so there really shouldn't be any problems. If there are, then show no mercy to the rioters (both sides).

    Geez, I don't like the wording on the options.

    I voted appeal to the loyalty. But, Matthias is at base law and order. If there is rioting, or plots, he will clamp down, no matter who does it. Rule of Law. He will ask for the trust of those he rules, trust him to get them through the dark times. Hopefully he has enough good will left from his Chancellorship to pull this off.
