Divine Influence - A Succession Game/Quantum Leap AAR!

[Rozmarzony]

The irony of the world.
"Hey, I just defeated Abbasids as almost OPM, resurrecting Zoroastrian-Persian Empire in process!"
vidmizz while picking the count.
"next time remember to clean the borders".

Late start for the Viking age

Maybe the Coptic dream can become reality. Certainly the Scots aren't letting anything hold the back.

Goddamn it I wasn't here for a week due to illness sorry :laugh:

I can be next if you still want me

I guess you can go next, it's up to Panzer.

Drogomir of Darum​

Since I had to play this as a 1 year old don't expect much from this.

As the war continued more Persian generals were captured

The battles continued but it seemed like The Persians couldn't do it anymore, they were at their limits. The last of their troops either ran from or were destroyed in Harama

The main reason why Persia couldn't send any more troops was Pratihara. Pratihara invaded Persia and were winning the war. They were getting closer and closer to the persian capital and the persians had to throw all they had at the Hindi invaders. They couldn't have found a better time to invade Persia as if it weren't for them Drogomirs and his fathers little wars would have been extinguished instantly.

They bought so much time that our troops managed to successfully siege all the target provinces and finally achieve a hard earned victory

Thus the duchy of Drogomir was born, and count Drogomir of Darum became Duke Drogomir II of Drogomir. (that's a lot of Drogomirs in once sentence)

Almost nothing of any interest happened in later years. Drogomir had to continue aging while the duchy was under regency. Drogomir didn't really have any control. Maybe a large Roman revolt happening in Empire of Germania has some importance as the rebels are winning the war.

When this picture was taken the war was only 1% to Victors favour but as of now it is 60% in his favour. The year is 1098 and Drogomir is still aging (boring as hell) I will write another when he's grown up

 

[Andre Massena]

Pratiharas uber alles!

What is the Roman revolt over?

 

[vidmizz]

No it's still going on and the revolt has 60 warscore

 

[alscon]

Independence against Greater Scotia, led by most of the Dutch, I imagine?

And is the Karen Empire led by the Saoshyant now?

Another thing: If your ruler dies, isn't your turn then limited to ten years? I would like Drogomir to have a greater impact on the world though.

The way I understand it it is whatever comes last so If my ruler dies before 10 years pass i keep on playing like I am now, and if drogomir died now (in 1101) I would stop playing.

That's not how I meant it, I guess the rules are a bit ambiguous though. It's 10 years or until your first ruler dies, whichever comes last. So whenever a condition is met, you check the other.

 

[Rozmarzony]

I would allow him to play till the death of his child, especially that he can't do WC right off the bat.

 

[PanzerCorps]

We could always change the rules, if need be and the popular support is there.

I think he should be allowed to continue. Atleast, he's got my support!

 

[Keinwyn]

Zombie Pashang: Gyahaha this is why you should run away; brave men die in a ditch, cowards build empires!

And is the Karen Empire led by the Saoshyant now?

I doubt it, Shaoshyant requires something like 1.5k Piety.

We could always change the rules, if need be and the popular support is there.

I always felt 10 years was a bit unfair, however ruling for another 60 is also unfair on players to come. How about whatever the current average is? (It's probably somewhere around 25 years.)

Note to self: use this dynasty name in the future.

"You sully my name with your insults!"
"But sir... your name is already sully!"
or
"You have sullied my honour!"
"Sully by name... Sully by nature."

I'll get my coat.

I was also under the impression that 10 years was a little short, but it seems that if we allow to play the whole life of the other character, we would end up encouraging the players to kill their first leader before the 10 years to be able to play the other, younger, character. What you proposes (the current average, or maybe 25 years) seems fair to me.

 

[Andre Massena]

I guess 25 years is fair

Vidmizz, I meant what is the Roman revolt fighting for?

Independence, you can see from screen. ;p

 

[Keinwyn]

Independence, you can see from screen. ;p

How... how can this be!? The Emperor is a Scot! FREEDOM!

I know, that's what I wanted to say, 10 years did not pass. My first ruler died only 2 years into the game so I am allowed to continue playing as his son but those 2 years are already gone so its 8 years or death. But after 1099 if he dies i stop playing because 10 years have passed since my original game start in 1089. Is it not so? Anyway I played a bit today and now it's 1101 A.D I had two wars but then I had to stop playing because well... reasons. I had to go somewhere and well... got a bit drunk. So excuse if you can't understand anything I wrote here. I am not trusting myself to write an AAR about those two wars until tomorrow morning too so sorry

 

[Keinwyn]

For reference on the rule, look at Panzer's turn. It came into effect there.

I am not trusting myself to write an AAR about those two wars until tomorrow morning too so sorry

But drunk writing is best writing.

No seriously, I write much better whilst drunk.

 

[PanzerCorps]

Well, current average play time is 22.2 years, which is close enough to 25 years.

Therefore, by GM mandate and popular ruling, the new minimum time limit on turns shall be 25 years.

Vidmizz can carry on playing until 1114.

Edit: I have re-written the rules to be clearer about the issue.

@Panzer I possessed Pashang in '63 not '53
