I don't think the Pope knows what Edinburgh is...

[kevindrosario]

I just got two missions from the Pope:
1. Cease hostilities with Scotland. Any further action taken against them will result in decreased reputation with the Pope.
2. Blockade Edinburgh

Uhhhh...

[vtec.dominion]

Yeah, these "block x port" mission seems bugged. When i was playing some catholic factions pope missions always seems illogical and stupid.

[Homeros]

... pope missions always seems illogical and stupid.

For Christ's sake, it's the Pope - what else did you expect

[Gorrrrrn]

Pope will only normally ask for a blockade if he's at war with a faction.

(might be an idea to comment out that particular Pope mission in descr_missions?)

[k/t]

He's just testing your faith.

[Ferdiad]

The Pope believess faith can sove any problem

[flankstakes]

maybe the council of nobles gave the mission instead of the pope?

[Ferdiad]

Nope pope gives contradictory misions.

[flankstakes]

all the years I've been playing this game, I have not had one instance where Pope messed up like that. I'm lucky I guess.

Or when the Pope tells you to blockade a port on the other side of the world for 3 turns.

now that's a problem

Or when the Pope tells you to blockade a port on the other side of the world for 3 turns.

For some reason I get a lot of these in my latest campaigns. Playing as Scotland I was asked to blockade some rebel port in Black Sea for 3 turns...It seems Pope has some port fetish or something.

*cough*move_character*cough*

[Dark Lord's Heir]

Wow how evil can the Pope get in the game?

[kevindrosario]

The pope should give a mission - blockade Rome's port or get excommunicated.

[Ichon]

I've been on Crusade to Venice before and just as arrived and laid siege the faction was reconciled and the Pope ordered a cease in hostilities...

I think the only way it can happen is if the Crusaded FL and Pope die on the same turn.

[Arkh]

Ho yeah, i so imagine the pope in a black leather fetish boutfit.
"Go blockade that port, slave !"

[Ferdiad]

With little boys on leashs behind him
(Like in that South Park episode)

[Thefallenhun]

The pope is playing with y'all, divide and conquer. Always keep them guessing.

[betto]

i dont know if is possible ,but why not make papal states be in permanent peace with rebels... then the buggy missions are over.
