~~ HOTSEAT RULES ~~

The rules will be subject to admin discretion (which will always be reasonable, proportionate and widely consulted)

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

• Pm the next player that it is their turn. You have 24 hours to play each turn before skip/sub
• 1 turn peace ( you may cross another players region, but must not end turn there or fight obviously. )
• No destroying buildings in an under siege settlement. At all other times it is allowed.
• 2 forts per region/player and forts need to have a garrison of at least 4 units, to limit fort spamming a bit.
• No assassinations
• No bug abuse! When you think someone has used a bug report it here and the admin will look into it. Link to known bugs, 2nd paragraph
• No sailing from a blockaded port without first defeating the blockading ships,
• Armies must not be hidden in ships inside of ports.
• No sallying forth in a siege to deny your besieger the opportunity to sack your settlement.
• Post pictures of battle odds, involved armies, their banners and the results. It is advised to hide everything else, especially the mini map and your finances.
• Settlements gifted should disband all units save one. No gifting regions in a war zone ( bordering faction at war with, or under threat )
• Armies defeated by a player (b) that comes after the original player (a)'s turn cannot move next turn, so if Tyrell defeats a Lannister army that army cannot move next turn. - Exception: Reinforcing armies standing in defenses, even if defeated, don't lose movement points. So player 'a' is allowed to move the army that reinforced another while in a fort even if defeated by 'b'.
• Heroic victories are banned

[HannibalExMachina]

woah, i actually have some firepower there. fear the lord oaf!

[Uriyaca]

Hah! Rightful King Stannis it is!

Lets see if my shananigans with Stannis against EoH and compeltely shattering his deffences and leaving him broken at WfW, taking KL on turn 3 from KoTR at FKOT, and holding half the map at GMH against completenoob with Stannis pays off!

Invicta, embrace yourself for a lifetime of fun

Mith, as the Ironborn, again? This should be fun

[Riverknight]

hmmmm... interesting I like the idea of random factions!

Isn't Invicta only in like.... 3 or 4 Westeros hotseats........ regardless this will be a good hotseat to watch!

And Mith got Greyjoy?!! Oh gawd.

taking KL on turn 3 from KoTR at FKOT

You're not telling the full story.... **cough** boosted stannis waay too much **cough**

[gangstamaori]

Mith, as the Ironborn, again? This should be fun

And Mith got Greyjoy?!! Oh gawd.

Heh, have to agree with these chaps.

[Louis XVI]

Mith, as the Ironborn, again? This should be fun

And Mith got Greyjoy?!! Oh gawd.

That was a shocking result, I nearly did the random allocations again but I decided to trust in fate

[HannibalExMachina]

Hah! Rightful King Stannis it is!

Invicta, embrace yourself for a lifetime of fun

Mith, as the Ironborn, again? This should be fun

and i continue to play this one.....

[invicta]

worst possible lottery result.. not much luck..lets see how long I can live..

[Uriyaca]

Hehe, have some faith in yourself brother!

You might just got screwed with dealing with the baddest Stannis around... . But we might work an arrangement as long as you bend the knee to rightful King Stannis

Oh yeah.... Nearly forgot a little something....

I, Stannis Baratheon, claim the Iron Throne of Westeros as my own. King Robert had no rightful heir, Prince Tommen, Princess Myrcella and "King" Joffrey are all incest spawn between Cercei Lannister and Ser Jaime Lannister, the kingslayer

I, as the oldest of King Robert's brother, am the rightful king on the Iron Throne. All hail King Stannis Baratheon, King of the Andals and the Rhoynar and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms and protector of the Realm

All who shall show their loyalty to me will be rewarded for their actions. All who deny me or oppose my rightful claim will be met with steel and fire

For that I, King Stannis Baratheon, am the baddest king around

FEAR ME

[StOuFf]

hahaaa invi with joffrey, good luck with that lad!
and Mith with the ironborns. god damn it!

I assume my army is somewhere in tully regions?
I am considered one of the best players, well that was surprising
invi hates my short term plans!

[StOuFf]

Why is Invicta in this?

he has played like 2 hotseats in WTW

because he is with no doubt one of the best players overall and the Immortals was basically meant to be a clash between the main hotseat section and the Westeros hotseat section.

[complete noob:(]

Even then it is 3 v 7

[Uriyaca]

Well, so are Grouchy and Stouff, but they are the best main HS section hotseaters so they should be in this game

I had my doubts about this in the beginning thinking that perhaps the Forgotten/EoH/Vozd are more fitting but I guess it means just more diverse players, I never got a chance to battle Invicta, Stouff or Grouchy before

Edit: I have somore stuff to say regarding all these factions

Badger as Lannister and Mith as Greyjoy! Badger will soon taste what misery tastes like, lets see how well you do against Mith.... . At the westeros nominations you said you never battled Mith, so embrace yourself!

[Arrow2daknee]

yes EOH should have been in this but it will be interesting none the less.

[grouchy13]

Ha ha their is no them then and us here, Everyman stands alone there is only one medal after all!

The Logic behind me, StOuFf & Invicta participating is we've a lot of HS experience from SS, KGCM & Retrofit so we'll see if we can bring done that experience to bear here against the best WTW players it should make this HS entertaining to follow as well as participate!

The prize is there for the taking, to borrow a quote from the Classic Movie Highlander

"Their can be only one"

[Korpskog]

Im supporting King Joffrey in this HS a challenge few players can handle! Go Invicta!!!

As for Uri participating I would say he is a decent player enough, hell as Stannis he could do wonders!

Also good luck to all my fellow YB1:ers! Lets show these prominent HS:ers what we are maid of!

Thanks fella! . Here to make our generation proud

Guys, please stick to the topic, stop bantering about other hotseats. Oh, let me rephrase a famous line of Tywin that fits this: "Any man who loudly proclaims his victories is no true victor".

I'm satisfied with my faction, not the best, but not the worst possibility either. House Arryn fits the most chivalrous commander, As High as Honor.
Unbelievable that Mith got the Ironborn, out of all factions. The bloody most feared warlord got his favorite faction that is one of the most powerful in Westeros. Life is unfair. (and then Mith claimed he has bad luck prior to the allocation of factions ).
I'm looking forward to the clash between the Master diplomat and the Most feared Warlord. They have never met before in battle, it will be an interesting fight.

[The Forgotten]

I didn't get invited? Light burn you all! Of coarse I am not angry though. I shall just wait for the KoRaH Immortals...

Good luck all and don't forget to stick them with the pointy end!

[The Guy With No Imagination]

Biggest irony ever that my faction's House words are "Family, Duty, Honor".


What the bloody hell is honor?

Lannister Lion, prepare to get wet.
