Kingdoms from the Scratch

[Solmyr]

Save from today's session is at the above link, if anyone wants to see it.

So do we start the independent dukes scenario? If so we could edit our starting dukes and wives using the character creation system, as well as make any other needed adjustments for the scen to work with 1.04 standard files (move the Pope to Rome etc).
Could start a new thread for it if we do it.

Hey

Just posting to let you guys know I'm here.

I think the consesnus is Independent Dukes scenario. We can start a new thread or we can use this one, but either way we should start modding characters so that we can have things in place for next Saturday.

Oh, and I still have dibbs on Baghdad.

I guess there should be a new thread, as I feel sunday at 6:00 is rather bad time, considering that I have also an EU2 game in sunday at late evening and I would prefer to not sleep during days...

What time would you suggest then?

Well, moving it forwards to 9:00 local time (8:00 CET) would be fine for me, but I guess it would be very late for americans then.

Should be fine for me as well, though probably not gonna play for 6 hours then as I have things to do in the morning.

Well, 3 or 4 hours is quite a lot of game also, especially if people do other things than read books or play PS2 while playing CK.

That would be fine by me. After all, I am already in the habit of staying up until 5 am local time playing anyways. It would halve the game time that we play, but if that is acceptable to others then it is also fine by me.

As an aside, we should ask Jarkko if he wants to join up in the new game, as well as seek to recruit Aussies and Kiwis. The time seems to be a good one for those fine folk. We should also consider whether we want to go ahead with the Independent Duchies scenario or if we would like to play a regular scenario, and if we want to be using the latest betas when we play or if we want to stick to the latest "official" version. I'd have no problem with us plaing an official version beta MP game, in order to participate in testing MP performance as well as playing our regular game.

I multi-task no matter what I am doing. CK is no different.

I'm for the duchies scenario (Byak, can you post a link to it please?)

If we begin this weekend we probably shouldn't be using the beta, seeing as it has that big crusade bug. Although if the save will be compatible with the following betas then I guess we could...

 

[unmerged(21937)]

Well, if we want to try out how these new beta patch features work in MP, I'd say we should do it in a basic scenario. Not to mention that the indep dukes scen does not work as fully intended without it's modded files, as the modded province.csv was rather important part of it (mostly by it's changes in kingdom setup).

 

[Solmyr]

We are already starting a basic scenario with the counts game though, and it's too boring anyway, something more customized would be more fun IMO.

 

[unmerged(27106)]

Well, I'm fine with either. I have the two directories, so I have no problem slapping the province mods on that one. I rarely play CK outside our MP sessions anways.

Alrighty, though I'm sure its not going to help my already tarnished reputation (God, I'm thinking in terms of BB, I've been playing these games too long), I'm going to abandon myself to studying for my midterms, and resign from my role in this game. I'm looking forward to the new game though, and do hope to contribute in a more positive fashion there....anyway, cheers.

 

[Sterkarm]

As a compromise, perhaps we could move the game to 8 Finland Time (7 CET)?

 

[Sterkarm]

EDIT: Thinking about it, we should probably just play regular scenario, except maybe split up Germany, the main problem with KFS being KOJ.

 

[Sterkarm]

One more thing: I've talked to Drake and Hyz and they might be coming back, especially with moving the time forward 2 hours...

 

[Hyzhenhok]

Hey guys,

Again, sorry about dropping out suddenly of KfS.

However, I think I've gotten past my silly internet troubles. Sterk asked me if I was interested, and if you're going to start a new game, I may end up joining up.

 

[Sterkarm]

If we play with a base 1066 scenario, or any scenario for that matter, we should implement new crusade rules if we're using the beta. Perhaps no crusading outside of the area where the current crusade is focused?
