[Hotseat] The requested hotseat

[jacb547]

I feel skipped...

Why?

edit:nevermind

[luke1608]

Oh wait ignore me, I'm sleepy and forgot the order

[Skizbot]

Tully

[luke1608]

Just saying I think we should impose a 24hour limit, if your go isn't done by then, I shall skip it and if you repeatedly leave it then you will be replaced.

[jacb547]

he still have some time

[Dido]

Yes he still has some time, but if people are gonna just wait until the last moment before their time runs out this will be a very slow hotseat.

[luke1608]

Plus it was for general use, not related to this specifically, although the time is running low

[luke1608]

On the other side, Ih is generally pretty quick on the other hotseat I'm running

[lh197]

oh god I can't keep up with all these hotseats, can we do visitor board messages to let people know when they're up please? And I try and take my turns as quick as I can but if its posted a night there's always going to be a good chance I won't get a chance to do it till the next evening. Real life is sadly kind of important at the moment (final term of university)

anyway, taking it now.

[luke1608]

Ah no worries, I wasn't criticizing and good luck

[lh197]

I've got to raise this before I make any moves. It says one turn peace, and whilst it hasn't technically been broken, I find Lannister blockading 3 bridges, all entirely in my regions, not even bordering his, is pretty cheap and basically an act of war, and I can't do anything about it without attacking him. Would like some admin input on this cos it's complete BS

[luke1608]

I'd widely consider it a dick move, and in all honesty the one turn peace is generally just to keep Tully's alive. Can you screen shot it up? Just as evidence.

[lh197]

I've tried but it just shows a black screen with the taskbar at the bottom. Basically he has forted 3 bridges, and has Jaime Lannister standing on another. One of the forted bridges is at the border with the Harrenhal region so that's fine, But Jaime and the other 2 forts are all entirely in my own regions, and cut all my troops off from Raventree and Pinkmaiden, meaning he can besiege both of them with Jaime and Tywin next turn, and I won't be able to reach either of them with any kind of army until after he's taken them. Don't really know what can be done about it now but it means I'm completely screwed.

[Skizbot]

I don't think building forts could be considered a hostile move. Blockades, sure, but forts are defensive. If he hasn't attacked your soldiers, your buildings, or your income in any aspect, its probably legal.

[Skizbot]

Speaking of rules- Luke, I noticed you added a rule saying no building destruction, which definitely wasn't there when I signed up. Do you want to clarify that? No destroying building when a city is being attacked? Or are we not allowed to destroy any of our own buildings...ever o.O?

[lh197]

I respect the opinion but the whole point of the peace is to stop the Tullys from getting battered without being able to respond, and all this has done has meant that I get battered without being able to respond next turn. It may be technically legal but makes the whole one turn peace completely inane.

[luke1608]

I'll have to agree with Skizbot.... Whilst dickish, it is essentially kind of representative of valid military strategy, I would take the opportunity to build up your Riverrun army and hope the Stark player is coming for you.

[Skizbot]

Luke did you see my question about building destruction?

[luke1608]

No, sorry, I'm a little torn on the matter as whilst 'scorched earth' policy is a widely used thing, it seems a little off. I'll put it to vote.

[Skizbot]

My take is that it should be allowed as long as its not in a settlement under siege. Some factions, like Dorne and Greyjoy, can only recruit their non-militia unit in home provinces, so it makes no sense for them to not destroy the stables at a place like Casterly Rock to get some gold. Joffrey can only defend a few settlements, so its logical to get gold from the buildings in a settlement likes Rooks Rest which he has almost no chance of keeping.

Anyway, I destroyed a bunch my last turn as Joff, so we should figure this out before Tully takes the turn.
