If your were a.......

[REQUIEM]

If you were a general in Med2 or any total war game for that matter what do you reckon your traits, virtues and chivalry etc... would be?

Heres an example of what i think some of mine would be

Dislikes The French + 1 command when fighting the french.
Fair fighter + 1 chivalry.
thorough training regime + 1 to experience of commanding troops - 1 Morale due to fatigue.
Rubbish with money - 20% tax income.
Tactian + 2 command.
dog lover - less chance of being assassinated.
Very loyal + 4 to loyalty.
Athiest - 0 piety (the pope would hate me)
Worksout - +2 to hitpoints
Drinker + 1 to morale - 1 hitpoints

I don't know if any one has made a thread like this before so don't kill me lol.

I think i would be an alright general to start off a campaign with

[Kawee]

I won't use you for the following:

-Running a settlement (tax penalty)
-Leading an Army (low morale, and inquisitors will kill you)

I will use you for the following:

- flanking enemies units on battlefields (Bodyguard unit + high hitpoints

That's pretty much all you're good for to be honest LOL

[Sodbuster]

I would have the traits Smart and Lazy. They pretty well balance each other out.

haha but i will gain experience over the campaign...if i don't die in the first battle/skirmish lol

Any trait is OK except "the cuckold". So make sure you are not the general who fighting overseas for long time...

[Knight of Judgment]

Great Commander + 5 command
Hero of Greece + 2 morale to all troops
Dislike the Turks + 2 whwn fightning against Turks

[Hungary Horace]

I'd have Steady Drinker, Corrupt, Sexually Liberated, a bit odd, night fighter, likes the dark and promising tatictian to start with

What about if you were a priest, a spy, an assasian or a merchant - any thoughts?

Good post idea though - plus rep to you Requiem

I'd use ya against the french!!

[Hungary Horace]

Almost forgot I would have the black stallion ancillary as well beacuse I love horses and they are my friends. Unfortunately there is no pet lion anymore.

Oh yeah and I'd like a torturer!!

[Platomasso]

I'd say:

Can tell a tale
Social Drinker
Energetic
Religiously Improper

[Alxaro]

Burnpillagerapeparty - A Viking trait, increase your characters overall performance by 3

[fattythefat]

[Strattios]

Hmmm, I decided on quite a few. I'm rather complicated like that.

Easily Riled:+1 Authority
Open to Murder: +1 Dread, 10% discount on agent training costs
Severe: 100% increase to cost to bribe, 2% bonus on tax income
Firm Ruler: +1 to unrest (has a negative effect on public order), +2 to law (improves public order)
Field Tyrant: +4 Dread, +1 Authority
Marks of War: +1 Authority, +2 to your general's hitpoints (how many hits your general can take before dying)
Lacks Compassion: +2 Dread
Legacy of Chivalry: +2 Chivalry
Cultured: +1 to popularity (improves public order)
Conscientious Trainer: +1 Morale for all troops on the battlefield, +10% to Movement Points (gives armies the ability to forced march)
Social Drinker: +1 Command, +1 to popularity (improves public order)

Hmmmm, that's taking to long. I used traits off of this site.

Basic idea: Intelligent, ruthless with foreigners and criminals, experienced fighter, love developing cities. So high dread and authority, subjects benefit under me, army well trained and equipped.
