To Lund ap Lunds [ Early Middle Ages NRP | IntChk and Sign-Ups ]

Out of curiosity, is it plausible if a kingdom were to have a female ruler instead of a male lord? Say the last lord only had a daughter and he passed away, and she somehow convinced the court to not let any of the greedy vassals claim the throne in her stead.

I believe so. The NS says Name of Lord or Lady so...

A female ruler is acceptable, but they won't have as much respect as a male ruler.

@ Sovie: Yes, you can just buy equipment without troops to fill it.

[Flooby Badoop]

Patience, peasant. I have had to make dinner for my family.

[King Solterra]

NEWS FLASH CALE, YOU DON'T FUCKING WORK TONIGHT. GO BACK HOME.

[ulsterwarrior]

Here's my NS, just without the optional concerns. Feel free to check my math, because I've worked on this on my Kindle, over the course of more than 5 hours.

History:
Ironstone Isle. A cold, hard place. Far to the north, alone in the Northern Sea. The soil is infertile and rocky, and many mountains dot the countryside. Those of the Ironblood are not farmers. They are miners and fishermen, sailors and traders. But before all, Ironmen are warriors. The name Ironstone once meant something. It once struck the hearts of all men with fear. Ironmen were raiders, by birth and blood. They would set sail in their dreaded longships, arriving in some unprotected village. They would plunder, rape and murder until nothing was left. Then they would escape into the night with their treasures, the only trace of their presence being the charred remains of their victims. Every man who lived on the coast feared the Ironmen. None were feared more than the Stronghearts. Though not kings of the Ironstone, they were kings in their own rights. From their mighty fortress Tallsheild, in Sharpsword, they ruled with an iron fist. The Stronghearts were warriors of the finest mirth. Each were trained to be above proficient with a multitude of weapons. When the first Overseer united Lundland, the Ironstone was the last to be annexed. They never would have been, if it hadn't been for the cowardly king Fulnar. The Ironmen were ready to fight for their freedom. Yet when Fulnar gazed upon the united navy of Lundland, he wetted himself and bent his knee. From that day, his name was erased from memory, and he has only known as the King-who-bent-his-Knee. While the Ironmen have held nothing but contempt for that man and his family, the Overlord granted the man Lordship of the Ironstone Isle. Until now. Rorik Strongheart, merely a boy recently raised to power after the death of his power, revolted. The Ironmen joined his banner and they easily defeated the few loyalists with little losses. As the Lord of the Ironstone laid bleeding, The Strongheart crowned himself King Rorik of the Ironstone Isle. With the Overlord dead and Lundland in chaos, it is time for the Ironmen to return to their former glory.
Motto: With Steel and Iron, Fire and Blood, We Will Take What We Want.(Kinda long, but oh well. I will post my crest when I get home from my vacation.)

[King Solterra]

Ill make up a taxes sheet to check it out when i get home

[King Solterra]

Dear god it's like a salvage yard where everything is just tossed together. This makes it take less time but it becomes sloppy.
EDIT: Hey ulsterwarrior, do you have any active troops or is all this stuff just in storage/armory

Edit: I am unable to create an Excel sheet for ulsterwarrior as I can not figure out what is a Fief and what is a Town, nor can I figure out the correct values of each.
-This is not an insult, I really can't. If Flooby is able to crunch it down and grab the numbers for me, I'll do it. Until then, it must be done manually by the owner.

[ulsterwarrior]

No their not active. Gonna wait until I build up my treasury before The Iron Ships Sail. Sorry that it's such a mess.

[King Solterra]

I made an edit to my earlier post

[ulsterwarrior]

Yeah, sorry bout that. I don't have my laptop so I had to do it on my Kindle. I had it a little more organized in my writing app, but it got messed up.

[King Solterra]

@FortunesFaded

I have started your Taxes sheet, and you are in the negative for Crops. This sheet was created using Flooby's laws, and if the sheet is incorrect, he has editing access to it to fix/change it.
At the time of posting this, only the Crops section was completed
You can find your Taxes Sheet Here

[King Solterra]

Oh, you know... I should have asked Flooby this a looooong time ago. How many seasons are there in this NRP? 4 right? 4 per year?

[Heyitsjiwon]

3 seasons that last 4 months each. It's Waiting Season (Winter), Growing Season, and Harvest Season.

[King Solterra]

Well then, I may just have more resources than I thought, maybe Fortune does too...

Edit
Delicious, delicious resources.

[King Solterra]

Now I need my NS reviewed once more by Flooby

[Sadko]

Can I not spend all my points but exchange it for lots of moneys at the start of the game? There's alot, and I'm certainly dumbfounded on how to spend it all judging by the type of country I'm going to do.

[King Solterra]

Sadko, compared to the last NRP, Flooby actually wanted people to be full fledged lords. He said last NRP everyone kept running out of troops to send after people. Sure, you could spend all that money in one go, and then when either your people starve to death or you use all your troops and lose them all, I'll claim your land, okay?
