An Idea

[Heinrich von Sachsen]

EB is probably too far along to implement this, so maybe this thread should go on the EBII forum, but anyway...
Would it be possible/practical to add another base attribute. It would be a measure what the character exels at: managment, command, ect. Of course combiations and complete incompetance would be possible. As with the other attributes, it would not give any bonus/penalty in itself but rather affect the aquistion of traits. This could also go with a string of buildings which replace the academy, military college, managment school ect.
Sorry if things are worded a little poorly, I'm a bit tired right now.

We already have that in a more complex manner with our base traits. There are two of them and one measures the physical attributes of a person the other measures the character attributes of a person.

Q. What's this about Intelligence, Charisma, and/or Energy? And Temperament, Loyalty, and Selflessness?

A. These are the general's "Primary Traits". Together or singly, they determine how he develops. The traits and ancillaries system for Europa Barbarorum attempts to add to the historical immersion for the player, to make him feel like he is really there and playing the rulers of his faction. To accomplish this, a new system was developed, where each general has a set of 3 Ability stats and 3 Personality stats, similar to what you might find in a role-playing game. These stats are: (Ability Traits) - Intelligence, Charisma, and Vitality; (Personality Traits) - Selflessness, Temperament, and Loyalty. These 6 primary traits are the backbone of the EB system, and they affect the acquisition of many of the other traits and even ancillaries.

I find your current trait system to be outstanding. I have been successfully able to roleplay Intelligent and Energetic characters to become great manager-generals.

Excellent work.
