[HS] The Faith of the Seven

[Badger-dude]

Wait wait wait Lanny player don't use that save, the units scale settings are on large or medium I think

Jed change the settings to huge and post the new save

Thank you for spotting. I hate playing with 'incomplete' units. It really bugged me in other games.

In the next FaB hotseat, I may use an edited EDU with 1500 men per unit rather than 150.

IT WOULD BE

It would be damn glorious indeed if you do so
But the problem with that is that it only works when you are hotseating, but if it is when you are playing on the battlefield it is insanely huge scale

Also this would dwarf the population in the cities, if you have like 2 stack (what, like 40,000 men?) that dwarfs the population of KL, only 20,000 men

Increasing the city population would REALLY much up the game, because squalor and corruption would be HUGE. I had that problem in Fire and Blood

Yeah, I would only use that EDU for starting the hotseat. I *think* it only needs to be switched once

100 men per unit on medium is the biggest possible. Hardcoded limit.

Stark up.

House Arryn up!

House Arryn up!

Will play when I get home

For future reference, I would prefer notifications sent as VMs rather than PMs, if possible

Why? Because that way I have an easy list of turns that I need to play

Unlike a certain player in a certain hotseat, I won't 'block' people or anything like that, just personal pref, as if I see a VM 9 times out of ten it is a turn notification.

Also, as an admin of other hotseats, by people sending VMs rather than PMs I can tell if a person was notified or not - and this way I won't be skipped without it being obvious I was notified

Stand by for my declaration.

Taking my turn now.

I would like to suggest a simplification of the fort rules - Rather than saying the fort has to be manned by four units, which have to be at >1/4 strength, we could have a minimum limit on the actual number of men in the fort.

So rather than 4 units above >1/4 strength, the minimum could be 300 men (Or more, whatever we agree on)

GB and/or Cavalry units could count as double

Feel free to shoot it down - it is a rule I am using in one of my own hotseats and it works well.

Seems OK, but I don't see how it is more simple.......

You have to add up the units, instead of just checking you don't place less then 30 men units in the fort

I don't think that adding so many rules during the game is good btw, we probably should just add that rule to the constitution thread if enough people like it

The benefit is that 4 units of 30 men = 120 men
4 Spear units at full strength = 600 men

The cost of supporting 600 men is vastly greater than the cost of supporting 120

I don't like keeping useless units of 30 men around. The alteration means that forts would be as defended, without forcing the player to commit almost a quarter stack to defend a fort, wheras others only have 1 unit's worth in the fort.

That is correct, but the thing is that you can't decide to split a unit ^^ . Only if a unit is damaged in battle then you can place it in a fort with the low cost of upkeep

This is a rule I took which is used in all hotseats (in which you can even place 4 units if 1 men in forts ) and I only added a small limitation to it to avoid less then 30 men units hanging around ^^

I have not changed that rule much. What you suggest is a different way of stopping 1 men units from protecting forts, one that I fine just as good as the original . All in all, the upkeep of four units isn't that great so that doesn't really matter

I urge you guys to post all off these real good rule additions in the rules thread, this is clugging up this thread and this is really not where it is supposed to be

First turn is always boring.......

[complete noob:(]

Turn 1 and already 2 fort rule breaches. No fine necessary, as I feel a warning will suffice, since I can't reach either of the forts this turn anyways

By whom? Stark I presume if you are bolton?

[Emperor of Hell]

If there is anybody who wants to play Mudd go ahead and replace me.. I can't promise to take the turns in time and I'm afraid I'm gonna hurry up too much with all these (new) hotseats. Mudd deserves a player who wants to spend some time on the turns.
