    I have always wondered how do you tell apart a boy dragon from girl dragon? Also do they breast feed?

    Before I get plagued with questions, those of you who managed to hatch a dragon egg this turn: It will be at least 6 turns before it can be used in battle, they will be of varying strength, and you will need somebody with Targaryen blood to ride it.
    It must be Stannis! I suppose he is living up to his epithet:

    Dragonborne.

    Okay, slight issue. Some people appear to believe a man and a horse take up the same space on board a ship as one man. A cavalry unit takes 3 spaces of the comfortable capacity, which I think is more than generous.

    Yes, and it will be, this is just a warning.

    Also, spies. They cannot really be ordered about when sent into enemy territory, they can be given specific tasks when sent out, but will grow independently from there, if I seem to ignore specific directives on spies this is the reason why. Counter spying can, of course, be directed as you see fit.

    Final whine, some things were not in the Final orders thread for most factions, it is okay to edit your orders post right up to the deadline (and after if there's an extension). A few of the amendments meant I had to search through extensive orders and edit the relevant piece. It's fine for this phase, but for next phase only orders in the orders post and private individual order pms will be accepted. I'm going to have to be strict on this in future for my own sanity.

    Looks like Kings landing will need airing out next turn.

    You wouldn't have any subjects left.

    edit: I've had to clarify a few things with players (I normally wouldn't, but these were genuine misunderstandings of things I had said) so I'm a bit behind where I hoped to be. I should be able to start sending out results in around 90 minutes though.

    You do realize that KL is *not* the seat of your house, it's just controlled territory because of claiming to be king?

    I know I'm becoming pedantic in my old age, but can I point out that the port near Casterly Rock is called Lannisport. Anybody sent to Lannisterport next turn will spend a month wandering Westeros, wondering where this mysterious place is.

    Oh you dont know of it? Lannisterport is a fishing village 6 leeks away from Lannisport. When House Lannister took control of Casterly Rock. LannisterPort was to be made of the center of Naval trade and main harbor of Lannisters. Unfortunately as cheap scrooge´s the Lannisters are,Lannisport was chosen over Lannisterport as it has less Characters.So ink was saved in huge amounts.

    How annoyed would you all be if I decided there was a big storm this month, and all the ships had to stay in port?

    Over the length of leek´s? No. i think i just have to hire for the family a new maester, with more in depth knowledge of leek´s. Would you care to lend me some for such noble cause?

    Update. Still working through the orders, there is one particular area which is very complex, and I don't want to miss anything, so I'm triple checking it.

    Oh, yes. It would help me get through more quickly if specific numbers were used at all times, things like, the remaining xxxx, everybody else and the like make going through the orders twice as difficult.
