Hotseat for beginners!

**Dux** · October 28, 2012, 08:21 AM

I'm creating a new hotseat for Westeros Total war specifically for new players who have never played hotseats before on Westeros Total War.

Got tired from the AI? Test your skills against real life players!
Always wanted to play a multiplayer campaign in this beautiful universe? This is your chance!

Westeros Total War offers an unique hotseat experience, unlike any other mods. Here the focus lies on wars, not economy, there are no rebel settlements. Everything is about supporting claims to the Iron Throne or declaring independence!(ever faction can claim independence after certain requirements have been met, only Stannis, Renly and Joffrey can claim the Iron Throne)
This is the Game of Thrones, who will win and who will die?

The hotseat will use some new files based on enhanced submod, which will hopefully fix some issues people have with enhanced submod.

I have never played a hotseat before.

Can I ask, how does one prevent cheating in a submod? Console commands and the like?

Also, I have installed various mini-mods, and have modified some of the battle config files slightly. Also, my work on 301AL mod may also make my files incompatible?

Also, what are the rules on using Toggle_fow in a hotseat? I used to not use this feature, but in W:TW I tend to use it to watch faction dynamics unfolding and to mimic the small nature of the continent and the speed at which ravens and messengers could travel

Download the new modfiles in that thread (link is up), we'll use those, which means every one will have the same files. It is a sort of new submod, specifically designed for this hotseat. It can just be used next to all other submods and versions of Westeros, it is a stand alone.

Only the admin can access the console through the admin password, so normal players cannot access the console and cheat.
