[Experimental Hotseat] A Stormy Clash of Kings with Swords

[complete noob:(]

playing later. And he doesn't necessarily have to use 2 whole stacks against each castle. He may be using 5 units per castle. But he starts with more than half a stack

[The Forgotten]

Two? I though Stannis only started with half a stack?

[Mithridate]

I start with 2/3rds of a stack, more than enough to siege two castles but i did this on the assumption the build points req was removed:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

and may they never return

If not, then i shall gain nothing and would have been unable to gain anything anyway. This is looking good but i worry that cav is made too strong, a bit early to tell as ive just started checking this out

Still, damn good work Hopeless ( dont take me as an eternal nag please )
But lets implement the new shipbuilding times immediately for the new turn?

[Uriyaca]

I say lower the siege points demands, actually.
This is how I think it should be:
1) Every city/town/ that isn't Large or huge + wooden castles should need to be besieged one turn with half a stack to assault them
2) Every castle (level 3) + Large city needs to be besieged by a full stack for 1 turn
3) Every Huge city / Fortress should be besieged for 2 turns by a full stack
4) Every Citadel should be besieged for 3 turns by a full stack

I don't know excactly the amount of siege points (needs to be culculated) , but that seems fair, doesn't it?

[Antoniusz]

I think the siege points should depend on garrison size, starting at half stack.
Of course it makes sence for one unit to defend castle against attackers (ex. Stannis defending Storms End during Roberts Rebellion) but I don't think we have time for this playing hotseat, tho I'd like to try it sometimes.

[Hopelessly Hopeless]

Meh, the rule is no more, please don't insist... gods, I need some damn coffee, I worked twelve hours yesterday and my damn cell phone has stopped working

The siege rule idea might be good for the next hotseat I decide to open, but I'll have to think them through. This one won't have them in the end.

Logging out, might return later or tomorrow.

Download this file with the ship recruitment changes.

@Mith

Renly was called the King in Highgarden (in ACoK appendix at least) in spite of being a Baratheon. I like how it sounds

[The Forgotten]

Ship changes are fine but will we need to restart?

[Hopelessly Hopeless]

No, so long as everybody downloads the file correctly and doesn't screw up.

King of Summer sounds better

[Loose Cannon]

King of Summer sounds better

After Robert's death, Renly and Loras fled King's Landing for Highgarden. There, with Loras's "friendship" and marriage to Margaery, he secured enough Tyrell support to be proclaimed King of the Seven Kingdoms. At that point he had the largest army (by far) in Westeros, backing his claim.

But yes, "King in Highgarden" does get confusing with the Tyrells of Highgarden.

[The Forgotten]

Why not King in the South? It is accurate but also doesn't show dominion over Dorne.

[complete noob:(]

Disregard the wrong turn #, I'm too lazy to change it right now. Lannisters up

[Hopelessly Hopeless]

Whoever hasn't downloaded the new export descr units, do it as soon as possible. It only has two views as of now

[complete noob:(]

I'll download it now. I played without it as I feel it was only fair for me to get 1 turn without it, like everyone else.

[xXAmonXx]

wait, we restarted?

[complete noob:(]

wait, we restarted?

Why do you think that? If you're referring to the save I posted, read the post

[Hopelessly Hopeless]

wait, we restarted?

We did not...

Should we ?



I dearly hope not, eh?

Seriously though, unless anyone has a serious complaint about anything, we should continue

[Loose Cannon]

I'll be playing turn 2 as soon as possible. I have an administrator headache from another game that is wasting too much of my time. some people don't understand ing English

[Loose Cannon]

Units headed east in support of the king ran into some wandering fishmongers. They were properly spanked and returned to their homes.

[Antoniusz]

Hope we didn't
