Hotseat game status: - Sicily has won on turn 115

Players (in turn order): (with links to write-ups) plus some other links where I consider it to be funny

Selifator: England
Kilij Ae Varyl: Spain

Venice - FACTION DESTROYED

Me Sicily

EoJ: Turks
I think I might have referenced this video before in the first crusade
This might be more appropriate... Looks like I was right there

Rankings - Turn 101

Rankings - Turn 69

Subs
Glacier_Girl played as sub for England - T29, T30
- played as sub for Sicily - T33
Monty501 played as sub for Spain T30, T 31
JuBuOrangie played as sub for Venice - T31 to T40
Lloydsgamble played as sub for Venice T41 to 42
Brutiangodofrock played as sub for Venice T43 to T65
Zsmart one played as sub for Turks T50 to T65
Hashoosh played as sub for Turks T64

Rules to note:

No 'exploiting' of any kind (e.g. putting forts on resources and stocking them with merchants) nor reloading your go to get a better result.

If I don't hear from a player within 4 days of receiving a turn, I will try to find a sub to take the turn.

If you don't expect to be able to play within 4 days, just let me know - extensions are fine (preferably not too often though please). I'll send a reminder email after a couple of days as a prompt.

If you expect an extended absence, e.g. not being able to play for over a week, you're invited to arrange a sub, giving them instructions etc so your turn is played as you'd like it to be.

An 'un-arranged' sub has the option to take over after 2 weeks or 10 turns The '2 weeks' here looks a little low, but the turn limit looks high?

Now that I have the pics uploaded, I want to show you guys an anomaly.

What the hell are these?

and

The first is a princess only retinue and the second is a diplomat only retinue. How come Hoppy's faction leader has them? Domenico the Malevolent indeed. More like sissy.

Secondly, about the promise I made in post 494, I am man of my word.

Bucharest and Corinth respectively. Still need the final name engraved until my vengeance is complete.

Finally, to those who are interested in how did the events led to this War of Retribution between the Turks and Venice; Here is the complete story. Hoppy and Swampy may not look at it.

Having difficulty downloading the save.

Think you're a hotshot against the Mongols? Go to the Mongolphobia mod discussions and download the mod, then, you will surely tremble with fear in the face of the Mongols. If you have suggestions/questions, feel free to make a thread. You can download Mongolphobia here. Good luck.

Hrm. It didn't show up. I said that I got it working, but my post didn't show up.

Edit: Sent to EoJ.

Oh, and EoJ, you might be a little surprised when you first open it up.

Can I look at it a little please? It's something on youtube so I wonder quite how it's presented. Please let it be by puppet show for true irony :0)

I'm guessing that Retrofit has a few flaws in it as a port of the orignal campaign onto Kingdoms - unless those ancilleries were transferable (which they shouldn't be). There's slightly odd treatment of crusades too iirc and there have been problems with alliances. I don't know if any of that's to do with the hotseat or Kingdoms or all just random.

I have no idea what Rick Roll is. EoJ was due to be out of contact for the last two weeks of August I think (from page 13 or so) has he confirmed when that'll be?

Swampy is the password holder on this hot-seat. Just ask him for it.

Monty is scared because el_bandito has many big strong (smelly but don't tell him I said that

) men to hurt me with.

PS: Notice how Monty refers to himself in the third person.

You're gonna have to cut that out when you're running my show

Um, Glacy, I see nothing out of the ordinary. And your spy which you say was heading for old italy? That's southern france. Geography, kid. Also, I shotgunned Staufen with Selif so

. EoJ was due to be out of contact for the last two weeks of August I think (from page 13 or so) has he confirmed when that'll be?

Sunday morning, actually, IIRC. I'll pass on the password and stuff. Send the next save onto Monty, Glacier- give him time to ease in.

Ahh, perfect timing for the invasion of Spain. Err I mean for the flowers we were all planning to send to Spain.

Does anyone (Catholic nation only) have a faction heir / leader in need of a wife? Sicily has a fairly charming lass available to anyone wanting to cement relations with a nation that's being jihadded against.

I said you might be surprised. Just hoping you'd get sweaty. And no, Bandito, I didn't click on the link. And it wouldn't have an effect on me because both my sound cards and speakers are kaput.

As opposed to me and my diplomatic ties. Mutually assured protection, active fairness-ensuring, stable alliances, allowing you to empty your garrisons on an entire front and concentrate where you want to.

If we're all going down the route of saying we're playing better - what's wrong with having the highest average participation in the military of all factions? Combine a large military with the smallest 'empire' (both population and settlement number) for penny pinching fun.
Frankly I can't see how that, combined with a healthy degree of suspicion, could cause anything but goodness for a nation.

No, and Spain won't be EoJ with his endless patience and willing to get things through patiently in response to a newbie on the scene trying to throw their weight around in order to make themselves feel big. I know you're doing that, but if you try stuff like that with my replacement I cannot be responsible. I doubt Selif will be happy either
