BM General Discussion / Cities and Duchies

« on: February 05, 2012, 04:56:21 PM »

I am using my husbands log on here but I am getting very frustrated with the new duchy and city system on testing.  I have a character Redemption who was named the duchess of Itau and was able to do nothing.  She could not even find an estate in the region, it was as if nothing was there.  She was not able to be named lord of the region either.

After a week of waiting and trying to figure something out someone suggested she step down as duchess, get named lord, and then reappointed as duchess.  That seemed to work!  Excellent.  So she created some estates and changed some tax settings and began attracting interested knights.

Now here is the part that I cannot understand.  The duchy of Itau is part of the Duchy of Via.  However on the region page in information tab it lists Itau as a separate duchy, but the actual region is under the duchy of Via.  The Earl of Itaufield would like to form a duchy of Itau with Itau City and Itaufield as a beginning but he has no option to swear allegiance to a city that is not its own duchy.  Which then brings me back to the point of where it shows Itau as both a duchy and a region within another duchy.

I have also tried to swear Itau to itself fto form another separate duchy but that didnt work either.

The only thing I can think of is to secede Itau City and then reswear to Asylon?  But could I swear back to Asylon and not Via?  I really dont know.  The very weird thing is that a month ago when the new changes had already been implemented a similar situation came up and Itau was a separate duchy, now it isnt.  Any suggestions?

BM General Discussion / Re: War Islands again?

I have played a little with the new maps and I am not such a big fan of the 3 player one but really, really like the 4 player one.  It has gotten me back into the game again.  I did see that the one realm is being moved to north of the river and I also think that will be a very helpful change to the map.

I also answered on the Facebook page, but I think it would be cool to have a 5+ person map too.

I have been playing this game for years and I have read over and over that the SEI/SWI will never return, but my question is why?  I don't think I remember exactly why they will not be returning.  They were so much fun when you only had to worry about fighting and never food or real diplomacy.  Was it a coding issue or something else?

No she has gone in all sorts of random directions in at least 20 different regions across the northwest of the island and has never even seen a message like someone has recently been here.  None of that.  She found a sage right before the new system went live, one of the old ones, but nothing since.  I know she is frustrated to say the least and the item she had to repair has gone from 36% to 2% and is about to be lost.

My wife has asked me to post.  She has an advie on Beluaterra that has been searching for a sage for approximately one month and has traveled through all of Sint and parts of Old Grekh with no luck whatsoever.  Are there sages on Beluaterra?
