In the Game of Thrones everyone eventually dies. There is no middle ground and only fools believe there are winners. Please download the edited files found here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/dv...b/newbloods.7z
It will be moderated by Gaming Staff and only Newbloods may partake. A Newblood is somebody who has just recently joined us, having no experience in Hotseating. If you are new and wish to challenge yourself for the chance at the reward then feel free to sign up; but keep in mind that we'd like to avoid replacements so if you plan to vanish off the face of the planet or are unable to make the 24 hour turns, we'd appreciate if you'd refrain from requesting a position here. Rewards of Reputation and a Signature will be given to the victor.
PM the next player that it is their turn. You have 24 hours to play each turn before skip/sub.
NO ALLIANCES/NO BENDING. This is a free for all between all factions. Everyone is your enemy, don't forget it.
NO ONE TURN PEACE. You can invade/enter anyone's land on Turn1 UNLESS they have not played their turn yet.
THE VALE AND DORNE ARE OUT OF BOUNDS. Nobody may enter these regions during the entirety of the Hotseat.
3 strike rule when it comes to a player being late. If your late 3 times with no warning, word or reason then you'll be replaced.
3 forts per region/player and forts need to have a garrison of at least 4 units, to limit fort spamming a bit.
NO DESTROYING BUILDINGS. Not allowed under any circumstances. Failure to follow this will not be tolerated.
NO MOVING/USING CAPTIVES. Certain characters are captives and have been placed out of bounds in the Vale. These are out of your control.
No bug abuse! When you think someone has used a bug report it here and the admin will look into it. If in doubt, just ask us.
No sailing from a blockaded port without defeating the blockading ships, it is illegal to burn down ports in order to get around this rule.
Armies must not end a turn be hidden in ships inside of ports. This is because that army would be unreachable.
No sallying forth in a siege if the outcome is a defeat. This counts towards all sieges including forts.
Heroic victories are 100% banned and illegal. If you get a heroic victory repeatedly, contact an Admin and we may allow it.
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'. Addendum to the same rule: no sallying out of a fort\castle which has forces which were defeated last turn. This is to make it fair for those who come last at the turn order, because they will not be able to do this
NO ASSASSINATIONS. Assassins are entirely illegal and cannot be used. If recruited, you may not use them.
NO WATCHTOWERS. You may place them during your turn to get a better view, but you must reload after placing them.
Princess must have over 30% odds of success in order to steal a general. Pictures must be posted as proof of these odds.
~ Special Events ~ To keep the HS interesting GS will on occasion launch special events to spice up the HS. These will be largely effected by the current balance of power in Westeros and can range from Sansa and Joffrey getting married - Jaime Lannister escaping from his imprisonment - Maybe a Targaryen Invasion. Stark can ask the admin to execute Jaime and Lannister can ask to execute Sansa, assuming they remain imprisoned. Stannis can ask to send an assassin after Renly. In order to make this process easier on the Admins all players will start with a preset password that'll be PMed to the players upon HS start. Sharing this password with anyone will result in an instant removal from the HS. ~ It is suggested that all new players take the time to watch the video below ~

Right...first of all, Khal you're conveniently dropping out of HSs allegedly lacking the time, but here you are signing up? Secondly I think you have too much experience for such a HS. I'm thinking of joining, but didn't make up my mind yet.
Edit: Actually, am I qualified to join?

Reason: question
How much experience do you have Adan? The Iron Throne could use a little more than the other factions, but not too much etc. You likely have as much as Khal going by your VMs.

I'm currently playing in 2 Westeros HS, but it's only turn 4 or 5. No real battle were fought yet, so I'd say I have very little experience in those. Khal is definitely the more experienced player here. I'm still undecided, so no need to rule out Khal, for the moment. I could probably take the Iron Islands, altough I would prefer the North...

Only issue with you Khal is your in a lot of HS already and you've been late in a fair few turns. I'll keep you in mind for the more challenging faction but I'll not unbalance the HS etc.
Isles are yours Vahir. Adan, you've been given the Iron Throne since your in 2 or so HS and will hopefully know what your doing. Just need a King in the North.
+ If we get a lot more requests I'll start up Newbloods II if there's a lot of demand from new players; hopefully my fellow GS members can take on most of the work in that HS.
[HS] Newbloods I [Finished]
.
Looking forward to the fast pace of this HS!
