BTW I think a small kingdome like scotland could be fun. In their case the vassals would be needed more and their are plenty of dukes. Also poland or france might be good.
Poor countries are seldom fun. Poland on the other hand could be good, a strong kingdom in the west (for a while anyway) and some pagans in the east for some crusading.

The idea is good, but unfortunately the time is ridiculously early for those of us in most of the USA (except perhaps the east coast.) If it ends up being shifted to something after 5 PM GMT, let me know.

Im back baby!

OK this is my first CK mp so im happy whatever the setup is. However i had an interesting idea that id like to share.

We all play in the same realm. Call this realm x. A random player is the king to start and everyone else is a duke or count. The more ambitious players would try to gather support amoungst the various barons to overthrow the king while others can just be happy to increase their demese/wealth. We would play primaraly for our own dynasty but also for our realm as a whole. So it would be a co-op game some other the time with possible vassal infighting and civil wars. Ruthless barons could gather favour amoungst players to overthrow the king by promising money and inluance to those who join him. The kings job would be to keep his place and to keep the other players loyal. He would have to insure the various players dont become too strong but at the same time make sure they dont get too pissed off. Backstabing would be part of the game as players must insure that their rivals are both not too strong, but also supportive of your interests.

What do you think??

The only rule would be that players musr remain either as king of realm x, or a vassal of the king of realm x.
I do like that Idea, I think it could be quite fun :)

I'll play on saturday. I can't play on sunday morning (0500 CET - 1200 CET) nor can I play on late sunday evening (1900 CET+), but I guess I could fit some gaming in between there too.

Sheridan (and others), the idea of this game is mainly just to try out CK multiplayer and have some fun. The game will run from 1.30 PM CET for, something like 10 hours. We'll probably have a dinner break at some point, and several rehosts anyway. If the start time is moved, the purpose is kind of gone since then the Europeans can't play for a whole day.

I don't expect all players to be present for the whole day, and no doubt some are going to leave at some point, so there will most probably be slots open later on. The only limit is hosting capability, I'm hoping we get a host who can run 7 players or more.

Maybe my idea isnt so suited to such a casual game. I think for it to work right it will require some role play. We could give it a go anyway im happy just to be playing :)

Looking foward to saturday.

Nice to see you're back! You may have a point there, although the idea is fun .. maybe with an AI king rather?

CK does not have events like EU2, but still the game seems to be acting odd and crashing a lot if a non-host save is used. I would definitively not accept a non-host save to be used in any of my games (wether I was the host or client) :)

When we tried CK-MP in the summer, a non-host save didn't work at all. Everything jammed.

Indeed we should play dukes in France, with a AI french King or something, dukes in england could work too, but it will get crowded.

I should be able to host 10, I figure if its a bit more demanding than eu2 but not that much and I usally host 12-13 in eu2.

Byak, you did read the description, did you? I've noticed you participating in loads of CK MP already. But experienced players are ok too, in case you play mostly to have fun and to give us n00bs a good experience .. As long as you commit to play for this more than for dominating us all, you are most certainly welcome.

You are just the kind of news I love to hear! I think you are settled to be the host then..

Well, I don't play CK to dominate others, but to have fun game.
