I have no real IC reason to go poking around Lurian affairs, but I wanna know what's going on in that party D:
Would you care to provide a response to the question of rule-breaking at least?
In any realm where two duchies and the potential for a new capital exist, it isn't breaking the rules to realign one of the duchies. If it *is*, then it's a bug, and that needs to be clearly communicated. If we learn that it's a bug, I'll move the duchy back, pronto.
The original realm is still standing, it was only a duchy that switched. Therefore, it is not a realm-merger.
If I put all of my realm into the same duchy, and then create a second one-region duchy out of a dinky townsland, and organize myself for a badland to join the dinky duchy and for the townsland to then join the main one, and then switch that duchy to another realm, effectively moving all regions except for the badland. Would this not be a realm merger?
a) You can't do that, because the game requires at least one city or stronghold to remain with the realm.b) Do you not get the difference between stealing the main duchy out from underneath its outraged ruler and deliberately planning the total merger of two realms?
a) good to knowb) if such was indeed the case. I can't say one way or another, I wasn't there. In any case, I'm happy for reduced tax efficiency and a new capital farther from the front lines. I'm sure that'll make the Lurias so much better against us.
Indeed it was the case Chénier. Sevastian knew nothing about it until after it was done. For the first time, you and I are both happy about the inefficiency that will be plaguing Luria.
You'd think the people with that power would be more than able to, you know, rebel and take power instead of switching allegiance...
How is that fun?Also, he's a priest. He can't be ruler.
He sure as hell can be ruler.I've been ruler many times as priest. Machiavel was the longest-reigning Prime Minister, and he has been a priest since long before the reforms.
