    Bravery is more than skill with swords, it is bravery in all areas of life, warfare, political, family etc. The examples you gave would happen anyway, each character will behave as much as possible within the knowledge we have of the characters. So Brynden probably would survive a lost battle, whether he was captured or not is another story, whereas Tyrion would have an accident on the way to the lost battle and somehow come out of it unscathed.

    To be honest, not well... Football Manager and then Skyrim have taken pretty much all my free time over the past month.

    I have the basics down, it's just a case of doing the actual roles and things, but I'd hoped to be ready to go by now. I said I'll start a week after the end of Capo, and I'll keep that start date. My brain hasn't enough spare capacity to have been able to keep up with Capo, so if somebody could let me know when it ends, I'll pm everybody that was interested and set a start date.

    Just checking in to see how things are going. I trust that the game is still on. :)

    So uh, whether or not it becomes a character based game I'd like to place my claim on Littlefinger.

    Game will start December 12th, assuming I get replies from all interested parties as to their preferred factions in time. I have 23 people interested in playing, though no doubt a few will have lost interest (I know Zack has given up playing mafia so he'll probably not be in), so we may well get enough for everybody to have a specific character.

    Interested (23):

    White eyes
    Beskar
    Double A
    TLD
    Kage
    Diamondeye
    Gurkhal
    Zack
    Cent
    slash and earn
    dcmort
    scottishranger
    The Stranger
    Jarema
    Skooma
    Ishmael
    LazyMcCrow
    Arjos
    Sprig
    Greyblades
    Flax
    Khazaar
    atheotes

    Confirmed (16):

    atheotes
    Beskar
    Ishmael
    Kage
    AA
    Arjos
    Greyblades
    The Stranger
    Jarema
    scottishranger
    Skooma Addict
    Gurkhal
    autolycus
    Khazaar
    Sigurd
    Csargo


    edit: That's everybody pmed. I'll update as I get players confirming.

    I just noticed that you set the starting date as January 12th here, but December 12th in the PM. Which is correct?

    Just to clarify, at the minute it doesn't look like we will have enough players for everyone to play as an individual. Everybody will be part of a faction, and give orders as a team for the faction.

    Well, seeing as theres too many people to have one person per faction we could have everyone pick a character and the leftover ones could be ordered about by the head of house.

    I have a question for people that are more knowledgeable of ASOIAF than me - what territory does Stannis control at this point? Is it just Dragonstone, or does he have some vassals/knights/whatever they're called at Storm's End as well? And JHT, will Stannis' forces be a playable faction or will they just be lumped in with Storm's End?

    I could be wrong, but Stannis would be at Dragonstone, while Renly at Storm's End...
