Due to the high demand to a YB hotseat I'm starting this new one directed to unexperienced players with the submod New Beginning 2.0 by Matto16. Here are links for the submod we'll be using : Link 1 or Link 2. To run it you just need to extract the file into your /mods folder.
Just like in all Matto's hotseats RP is very much desirable, you don't need to write a book here, but a sentence or a picture is always better than a blank page.
Keep in mind that you should be responsible to play your turns in the right time or ask for extensions or subs if that won't be possible, and always respect the other players.
- Timeline :
This game starts at the beginning of the War of the Five Kings with characters beeing on the same locations like in youngbloods and Enhanced 0.53 mods. Stark is fighting for revenge against Lannister and Joffrey, Stannis and Renly are their own Kings who would like to sit on the Iron Throne and rule Westeros as late King Robert's brothers and we also have Ironborn and their King Balon who wants to have his own independent Kingdom. Who will prevail at the end? That is up to you to decide.
- Winning Condition :
Become the King of Westeros by conquering all of it or having other Lords/Kings pledging fealty to you. Every Lord/king must pledge fealty to you in order to win this Hotseat. Only one House can win! - Factions/Players :
House Lannister of Casterly Rock : Abstillion House Tully of Riverrun : Dead House Greyjoy of Pyke : Jadli King Renly Baratheon : Dead King Joffrey Baratheon : Dead House Tyrell of Highgarden : Dragon. House Stark of Winterfell : Gimli10 House Martell of Dorne : Drake123 King Stannis Baratheon : Pandachef House Arryn of The Eyrie : pulkownik
- Rules :
They are taken and adapted from Westeros : A New Beginning hotseat by Matto16, who took it from Sons of Rivers and Hills, hotseat by Hopelessly Hopeless. Please read them carefully as there are many adapted/added rules, and always remember that the admin has the final word on any matter.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
PM or VM the next player as you post your turn on the thread so the game moves as swiftly as possible.
If you know you will miss your turn; nominate a sub and provide them with your password. If you miss your turn and haven't nominated a sub, you'll be skipped.
Heroic victories are not allowed unless the same outcome is reached three consecutive times (save and load), the Admin always checks this to be sure.
No bug abuse! When you think someone has used a bug report it here and the admin (me) will look into it. A list of common bugs and exploits can be found somewhere in this forum, but I feel rather lazy atm so look for it yourselves
No sailing from a blockaded port without first defeating the blockading ships.
No sallying forth in a siege to deny your besieger the opportunity to sack your settlement.
Minimum of 4 units per fort, 4 forts/province
Post pictures of battle odds, and results, showing the position of the envolved armies and it's banners.
If any army of yours gets defeated, it shan't move next turn. If a defeated army of yours retreats to a settlement, you are not allowed to sally or in any way use the defeated units. Exception: Reinforcing armies in defense, when based on forts or settlements, even if defeated, don't lose movement points.
You can kill agents by surrounding them with troops, so use your diplomats/princesses wisely.
No surrounding of an army solely to deny a retreat, resulting on killing the army.
Prisoners cannot be ransomed after battle. Release or execute.
Not allowed to spam watchtowers to prevent forting.
Not allowed to to lure the attacker into the fort by disband/suicide sally to set up a trap.
Not allowed to besiege a fort solely to deny the besieged army from participating in battles (with enemy forces next to the fort).
Not allowed to sally from forts (except for sieges lasting longer then 1 turn) unless victory or draw is achieved.
No repeated attacks on 'yoyo/fort buged armies'. You can see when this bug accures, as the enemy army enters the fort and then leaves it.
No assassinations or sabotage. No recruiting of assassins allowed.
Not allowed to recruit spies.
Settlements gifted should disband all units save one.
No building destruction. Burning down everything is a 'cheap' source of gold, and feels rather weird. Not that I never do it or anything, but I'd make it a rule in my hotseat.
No adoptions; use your characters with caution. No marrying your noble ladies to randomly generated characters either; nor adopting generals after you win a battle with no leader; Named characters you start the game with, CAN be adopted (for example, Jonos Mallister, who is not a family member at game start, but is still a character; same for Raymund Vance and others).
No using of princesses/noble ladies to steal generals! Would you marry off your daughters to a sworn enemy? No? Me neither, you see
Many thanks to Matto16 for his great submod and the well structured first page.

Lords of Westeros, we at Dorne have decided to stay neutral during these troubling times in the seven kingdoms. However that doesn't mean we will remain this way. The spears of Dorne are deadly and have yet to choose who to stab and who to defend. Prove yourself a noble king and we may consider.
Doran Martell, Lord of Sunspear and Prince of Dorne
