Suggestions:
1: No fort spamming, forts can and should be used but spamming forts all around an enemy castle to stop reinforcements is just plain abusing the system.
2: No destroying buildings in castles. Castles are vital for everyone in the production of units and if we let them get destroyed you end up with everyone fielding milita which is boring.
3: 1 turn peace to give the Tullies a chance to withdraw or bring men to Riverrun.

so the factions are all coincidental, ie stark+martell?

Yes!

[HannibalExMachina]

sounds like fun, sign me up!

[Antoniusz]

Well I personally agree with that. Disabling forts spam will push the players to engage in open combat, also as this game is planned to be quite fast paced (only 5 players) no destroying buildings will even increase the pace.
And the Tullies favor it is quite obvious Unless somoene gets them with Lannisters in package

Oh and the diceing, how can we do it? I have an idea but it's a bit barbaric and perhaps someone can bring propose somehting better

[jacb547]

I would like to join.

[Cleftjaw]

Me too!


I also agree with the proposed rules.

[Pinkie Pie]

I would suggest giving every faction a number.

Lannisters:1
Joffrey:2
Tully:3
Tyrell:4
Renly:5
Stannis:6
Martell:7
Arryn:8
Stark:9
Greyjoy:10

then use a random number generator to pick factions until they are all gone.

Yes I thought of something simmilar. And to make it live on skype or something.
Also my barbaric method which I mentioned earlier would consist of live lottery on some sort of communicator.

PS. We are full! Please provide your oppinion about forts, 1 round peace etc.

[Pinkie Pie]

Thats 5 already

[jacb547]

I agreed with the rules

Interesting idea. I wanted to try a small game (like 3 ppl) where individual castles were chosen by the players/randomly instead of kingdoms and start like that but it would probably be impossible. If you want I can come up with the numbers and you guys can post on the boards in a serpentine order.

Yea, You could make a list of factions, mess it up a bit and then we would post our picks according to the players list. I can be at the end as admin tho.

EDIT. Or Ljomx could now assign a number to each pair martin made, and we would take our picks.

[Pinkie Pie]

Joffrey/Stark
Lannister/Martell
Greyjoy/Tyrell
Arryn/Renly
Tully/Stannis

I got that on a number generator

[Cleftjaw]

Joffrey/Stark
Lannister/Martell
Greyjoy/Tyrell
Arryn/Renly
Tully/Stannis

I got that on a number generator

Interesting mix!

[Pinkie Pie]

I do not think we should pick. It would be better if we ended up with random factions and had no choice in them.

Yes that's what I intended to do We end up with random factions.

[jacb547]

How do we decided each one we pick?

[Pinkie Pie]

I call Greyjoy and Tyrell
if we use martin factions

If I had a choice another number generator would see who got what so no one gets an unfair advantage.

My first attempt btw ended up with a Lannister/Tyrell match and a Joffrey/Tully match
