Out of character thread XV

OK: Given that Jan has sort of gotten used to Matthias's rather warped and macabre sense of humor, he probably wouldn't be very surprised.

Considering that Matthias already gave the intact one to Nikeforos, I can only assume you mean the trampled one. Though after a couple years, I imagine it is rather ripe at the moment. Unless you are proposing that Matthias go out, smash an army, and bring back a fresh head for Jan's newborn son.

If you are, I assure you that Jan would be touched by the thought, and then when Matthias turns around, he would chuck the head in the trash.

hmp, well be careful what you wish for, In my expierence a smaller house is easier to manage, less prone to internal strife.

Interesting observation Stuperman, the two larger houses seem to be more fractious, at the moment at least. Though Austria does have a dissenting voice and there are only two Bavarians actually in Bavaria, one of which is stuck on an island, which cuts down on mutiny. Outremer is only three people, but too many Chiefs not enough Indians as it has a Kaiser, King and one measly Count. Matthias technically could stir the pot, but, one, he'd be crushed as there's no place to run to or get help from, and, two, even if he managed to beat the Killer Ks, the Byzzies would swarm in and smoosh him despite whatever fancy title he'd grant himself. Not that I've ever thought of breaking the Great Chain of Being and calling myself the Immortal Grand Potentate of the East and Defender of the Holy Sepulchre.

Hey, you could start the independent Republuic of Corsica if you wanted.

On a previous note, I was able to download the save here at work which I then attached to an e-mail I sent myself. So much for Hospital IT, I'll have to see if my work computer can handle M2.

I have uploaded the save via the temporary system that Tosa has set up. The new link is at the top of the Turn 3 cataclysm post.

Hi All,

I'm also out from Friday the 26th until Monday the 29th at about 14:00 Swiss time GMT +1.

I'm off to the New York Giants versus the Miami Dolphin's at Wembley Stadium in London...90000+ people...holleey hell!!

I'll have more orders in before the deadline and I'd really like to attack this turn so hopefully we can wait for my battle until Monday early afternoon.

I'll update the Duty roster.

Plus...it's a bit like a night club in here...at around 8pm...

One thing I must say, after looking at the orders... that is an absolute mountain of work you're doing TC, thanks for taking the huge amount of time amongst all else going on there.

I'm off to the New York Giants versus the Miami Dolphin's at Wembley Stadium in London...90000+ people...

I heard they had nearly a million people try to get tickets. You'll have to give us a post-match report.

Sure will. It's bound to be a crazy time over there.

And again. TC thanks a lot.

I think I asked that before but I've forgotten.

If you are going to attack the Venetians, you can start fighting the battles right now. Just take the kotr1324.sav save and upload the results as normal.
