Seems a bit silly to change them now.
ROFL! What sir, is your opinion on sinking whole islands?? That's not so silly i presume? Reminds me of the saying outlaws have in my country - kill one, they hang you, kill a dozen, that'll get you major respect, a cash reward and a government job when you decide to surrender.
you can give Crusader Kings 2 a shot 
Spent a good portion of my life playing ck2. Tried almost every mod. Don't like the got mod. Also, this isn't the crusader kings forum now is it?? :-p :-p :-p
You should check out Mount&Blade: Warband then. Especially the 1257 AD mod.
We could totally talk about improving m&b. On its own forum. But look at me! Here I am talking about improving bm on bm's forum. So why should I care if there's a better game out there (which iv spent half my life on BTW)?? Pretty soon when I talk about improving the graphics in whatever minute way possible, people will start telling me about this game called elder scrolls . . .
despite the stupid Twilight additions to the poll.
I'm sorry I hurt your feelings by referring to twilight in a bad light. I think it's a great great cultural movement of itself. I loved that scene where the sixteen year old actresses is depicted jacking off and all. Must be a day of liberation for paedophiles around the world. And Catholic priests.
What's to say our nobles aren't simply making stuff up because they believe in the gods or want to look impressive among their fellow nobles?
Wtf are you taking about man?!?! All nobles making stuff about this to each other. And then peasentsaking this "stuff up" en masse. And then dying en masse from things conjured up by their own fantasy eh? You're high is my medical opinion on this matter.
That said, having raiders and bandits beyond the occasional flavor text would be cool, too. The problem is that they'd always have to be tiny bands, by definition. They'd never organize into an army in the way we fight undead. Monsters are a different beast (a-ha) because they DO use small units with higher stats.
So the undead with their rotten brains and lack of emotions can organize. Also, wild beasts can organize themselves into packs. But humans can't? I don't want to waste time in real world examples here. Plenty around.
And finally... "immersion"? I'm not sure that word is really applicable when the game is mostly text-based and there's no real attempt to disguise that you're playing from a web browser.
Did you really just say you don't think bm should care about immersion?? A game that promotes RPing might not be the best place to dismiss immersion.
and real medieval texts have stories and such about them.
Example of acceptable logic.
The emphasis was put on simulator for a reason. Yes, medieval commander of troops is a core part of BM. But we're not a combat simulator for the medieval period that happened on Earth. We're more interested in providing good game mechanics than in simulating medieval conditions.
Best reply so far in my humble opinion. Still, since my proposal doesn't interfere with providing good mechanics in any way . . . also, maybe if enough people were interested in stimulating medieval conditions rather than sticking to what's been done in the past . . ?? After all, not everybody agrees with the way bm has been. and maybe it's time to change some stuff to accommodate certain people. I'm not saying just me, I want to find out if there is support for such a demand. Hence the poll.
