Send messenger to neighboring region(s)

[Sacha]

I thought it might be a fun idea to give nobles the option to send a messenger to a neighboring region. It would be a good way to taunt your enemies from across the border, demand their surrender, stuff like that. It would be limited to 'everyone in region X' only, and perhaps cost a few gold coins to send the messenger.

Thoughts?

Sounds like fun to me, but no idea how difficult it might be to code.

It would make pre-battle insults possible and make for great RP  :)

There's already the "Send to everyone in the vicinity of X" that NPCs have, which probably sends a message to all regions including and adjacent to the origin. It might be a bit harder to have the message target a region, but it sounds like the current scout system might be a possible template.

Like In the vicinity for Adventurers, but then for Nobles?

Should not be any harder to code than the current "send to region", the only question I have is how extensive would it be (a choice of *any* neighbour?), and whether something like this would be approved by Tom.

[Tom]

I'm not sure. If, then it should be limited. I'd much rather have players play messengers.

Have it cost gold similar to the "keep it quiet" thing?  Gold goes up based on the number of recipients and you can pick which region to send to?

I would assume it would be limited only to the direct border-sharing neighbours of the message senders region? Lord typically did have some contact with their neighbours without having to leave their own estates, what with the comings and goings of various messengers.
