Ok.

Now that all general avatars are assigned, shall we start the Diet?

I'll start it now.

The thread looks great, Gibson!

As the first Kanzler, I guess I'm starting the game (not now, after the Diet of course). What difficulty should I use? VH/VH? Maybe H/VH?

**gibsonsg91921** · 12-14-2007, 02:31

Let's go H/H so we don't scare away new players. H/H is no walk in the park. If you think that's too easy I'm open to H/VH, but campaign difficulty doesn't have to be more than H, that just makes the diplomacy terrible.

That's fine. I think H/VH would be better, since the AI doesn't get bonuses on higher battle difficulties (except when buring siege towers

) .

What difficulty is KOTR on, anyway? I suspect that with all the micromanagement, this will be a bit easier than SP.

Yeah, let's go with H/VH. I think that's what KOTR is on.

Sounds good.

Just one more thing: How centralized is the Order going to be? I understand that the Hochmeister can assign Houses, since there are no family members that makes sense. What about other stuff? Do we vote to attack a settlement in the Diet? Is the Order's capital Houseless and under control of the Hochmeister, like Rome was in KOTR?
