Weird ways to gain prestige!
« Topic Start: April 21, 2012, 10:18:53 PM »
I'm sure many of us have seen our characters gain prestige from doing odd things that one wouldn't suspect would cause gain.  If I recall correctly, one character gained prestige from persistently looting   :o

Most recently, I received the following for persistently building wall segments!

Your engineers are now busy adding another block of fortifications.

Your continual performances have finally paid off. Your prestige rises one point.


If you've had a similar thing, it would be interesting to hear about it here!

I've actually had that happen plenty of times. But recently I came across:

Quote
Your men take 5 in gold and valuables from the people of Nuas.
Production in this region falls by 3% to 72%.
Your men also burn 48 units of food.
14 local peasants were killed by your men.

Your continual performances have finally paid off. Your prestige rises one point.

Which I thought was pretty cool... Prestige for KRB! :)

Assaulting enemy nobles. ???
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.

Unbeknownst to all but a select few, you become what you kill.
The above is accurate 25% of the time, truthful 50% of the time, and facetious 100% of the time.

But most nobles spend their military careers killing peasants... That would mean...

Oh no! NOOOOO!
