Clash of Heroes

Long before the rise of Valyria, Westeros was divided into countless Petty Kingdoms. In the south, the Reach is consumed by fire as weak kings are set upon from all sides, and strong ones vie for their remains. In Dorne, the deserts run red with blood and in the north four kingdoms struggle for supremacy, even as they face invaders from all sides. As chaos descends upon the lands of Westeros it remains to be seen which Kingdoms shall forge dynasties to last a thousand years, and which will fade into history.

The Rules

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

1. You have 24 hours to play your turn. If you don't ask for an extension or haven't appointed a personal sub you will be subbed/skipped. If you take more than 3 days without making contact or get late 5 times in the hotseat, you WILL be replaced.

2. It is not allowed to abuse bugs to yours or others' advantage. These are the known bugs:
The naval fort bug: No using ships to bypass a fort or a settlement's Zone of Control.
Spam siege bug: Besieging a fort or a settlement with a force far superior in it, in order to either prevent that army from reinforcing or in order to cut down a settlements income is not allowed.
Fort watchtower bug: Constructing watchtowers in order to prevent forting is not allowed. You can construct watchtowers, but you will be asked to replay if it is obvious the reason why the watchtower has been built is to prevent forting
Heroic victory bug: No Heroic victories at all. If you get a heroic victory you must reload until you get a different result, and if you cannot get a different result then you will not be allowed to play the battle.
Ambush fort bug: No luring men in ambush position into ZoC of forts\settlement's as such robbing them of their movement points.
Siege reinforcement bug: when the army is adjacent to a fort or a settlements that has been put under siege it cannot reinforce armies adjacent to him which he should have been able to reinforce on normal occasions. Attacking an army which the siege reinforcements bug applies to is not allowed
Navy inside ports attacked bug: no using this bug to attack ships which are inside ports.
Yoyo armies\forts bug: no attacking an army which the bug has been used on multiple times. You can see when this bug occurs, as the enemy army enters the fort and then leaves it.
3. You are not allowed to encircle an army, just to deny its retreat.
4. Destroying buildings is not allowed in these 3 situations:
- If the settlement is under siege
- A far superior army is one turn away from the settlement. *exception: if it is turn one it is allowed
- You have not yet held that settlement for 3 turns *exception: does not apply on turn 1-3 on home regions
5. 4 units per fort and 2 forts per region
6. You are not allowed to sally out if the result is defeat (both settlements and forts).
7. You have to VM/PM the next player after you upload your save.
8. Posting pictures of battle odds, and results is mandatory. All pics must show the attacking and defending forces. You are advised to cover your finance and minimap.
9. The recruitment of spies\assassins and their use is prohibited.
10. Armies defeated by a player (b) that comes after the original player (a)'s turn cannot move next turn, so if Greyjoy defeats a Lannister army that army cannot move next turn.
11. No sailing from a blockaded port without first defeating the blockading ships.
12. It is not allowed to accept money or regions from dying/obliterated factions.
13. It is not allowed use a princess to steal a general, unless there is more than 30% chance of success. (pics must be posted as proof)
14. Settlements gifted should disband all units, except for one. This is to keep public order intact.
15.One turn peace. This means that players cannot attack/enter lands of those players who have not yet played their turn for the first time in the hotseat.
16. The recruitment of siege equipment and their use is prohibited.
17. It is illegal to place armies or any kind of land forces onto ships which are inside ports.
18. It is illegal to burn down ports in order to get around rule 11- if your port is blockaded and there are ships inside that port, if you burn down the port the ship is not allowed to move.
19. It is illegal to steal a general with a princess in order to break a siege.
20. In case someone performs a trick\move which isn't forbidden by the rules that the admin does not like, that action (if it should be allowed or not) goes to a vote and if more than half of the players agree then that rule will become valid next turn
21. You may not build watchtowers to prevent enemy from forting.
22.You are not allowed to besiege a settlement to deny garrison participating in battle.

23. The admin's decision is final.

[Ser Elmond Starr]

Game will start once Age of Petty Kings 3.0 is released. Until then, players sign your factions and admins sign your spots.

[forpony]

Hi,could I have the Ironborn please and what on earth are the breaklands?

[A Man]

Count me in as The Vale (Arryn).

[Ser Elmond Starr]

The Breaklands are the region of the Darklyns (later called the Crownlands.) It's how Thrawn named them in his mod. Ironborn and Vale granted. Although, Forpony, I would like to ask you what faction you want in the Iron Islands. There is Greyjoy or Hoare, I believe.

oh hmmmm I suppose Hoare, I might take a closer look when the mod gets released if i can

[A Man]

Greyiron and Greyjoy I think?

[Ser Elmond Starr]

Yeah yeah yeah Hoare was in 1.0. Now it's Greyjoy or Greyiron, thank you for reminding me A Man.

[A Man]

Np. I suggest you take Greyjoy forpony. You can wipe out Greyiron on turn 2, while their forces are on the sea.

[Alertoverlord]

I don't think it would be fair for me to be in this so would it be possible to be co-admin please?

[Ser Elmond Starr]

I don't think it would be fair for me to be in this so would it be possible to be co-admin please?

Sure thing I would certainly let you play, but you being in AOPK II and being super good and all

[Ser Elmond Starr]

Ok, warning up: I have changed the OP declaring this a Youngbloods hotseat. I know forpony is, and you A Man, you were with me in Newbloods V, but your experience clearly suggests you're a youngblood too now. I'm doing this just to balance things out, cause I don't want someone like Alert kicking ass after ass after ass, and newbloods will be wiped away as soon as they enter, so I'm putting the mark in the middle. If you're not a youngblood and we're needing spots, you'll be allowed to join, but as of now, this hs is more pointed towards youngbloods.

[A Man]

Sure, no problem. Though I am anxious to join a new HS where more experienced players play to see how long I last, but that can wait... this will do to.

[zender9]

i have read the warning message and now i dont have an idea about if i can join this hotseat or not

[Ser Elmond Starr]

i have read the warning message and now i dont have an idea about if i can join this hotseat or not

Well it's really up to you yourself to decide if you're a newblood or youngblood. I mean, you've sure played in a few hotseats, but do you think it on yourself to be able to play with a bit higher level players? Do you have the minimum experience it takes? If so, go ahead and hit me up with your faction

[zender9]

Well then i want to try my chance with Hightower.

[Ser Elmond Starr]

Well then i want to try my chance with Hightower.

Spot granted. For some advice, I suggest you spectate Age of Petty Kings II hs, as Alert is a badass and he's playing with Hightower

[General Dragon.]

If you guys need another admin I can help out in that.

[Ser Elmond Starr]

If you guys need another admin I can help out in that.

Yay, you can be the main admin, if you want to. Thanks for signing up, Dragon. Everyone +rep the good sir!

[JCdestr0yer]

if a man is in this i have to join this time we will be on equal footing, dorne, stormlands or the north in that order
