In the Game of Thrones everyone eventually dies. There is no middle ground and only fools believe there are winners. Please download the edited files found here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/x6uz8l...wbloods_2.0.7z
It will be moderated by Gaming Staff and only Newbloods may partake. A Newblood is somebody who has just recently joined us, having no experience in Hotseating. If you are new and wish to challenge yourself for the chance at the reward then feel free to sign up; but keep in mind that we'd like to avoid replacements so if you plan to vanish off the face of the planet or are unable to make the 24 hour turns, we'd appreciate if you'd refrain from requesting a position here. The Winner of this Hotseat will be rewarded with a Gaming Medal, Personalized Signature and 10 Reputation. We at HS Gaming Staff hope that you enjoy your stay.
~ The Rules ~
PM the next player that it is their turn. You have 24 hours to play each turn before skip/sub. NO ALLIANCES/NO BENDING. This is a free for all between all factions. EVERYONE IS YOUR ENEMY. NO ONE TURN PEACE. You can invade/enter anyone's land on Turn1 UNLESS they have not played their turn yet. THE VALE, DORNE AND IRONISLES ARE OUT OF BOUNDS. Nobody may enter these regions unless allowed by the Admin.
3 strike rule when it comes to a player being late. If your late 3 times with no warning, word or reason then you'll be replaced.
3 forts per region/player and forts need to have a garrison of at least 4 units, to limit fort spamming a bit. NO DESTROYING BUILDINGS. Not allowed under any circumstances. Failure to follow this will not be tolerated. NO MOVING/USING CAPTIVES. Certain characters are captives and have been placed out of bounds. These are out of your control.
No bug abuse! When you think someone has used a bug report it here and the admin will look into it. If in doubt, just ask us.
No sailing from a blockaded port without defeating the blockading ships, it is illegal to burn down ports in order to get around this rule.
Armies must not end a turn be hidden in ships inside of ports. This is because that army would be unreachable.
No sallying forth in a siege if the outcome is a defeat. This counts towards all sieges including forts.
No excessive replaying to gain victories that would otherwise be impossible to achieve.
Heroic victories are 100% banned and illegal. If you get a heroic victory repeatedly, contact an Admin and we may allow it.
Post pictures of battle odds, involved armies, their banners and the results. It is advised to hide everything else, especially the mini map and your finances.
Settlements gifted should disband all units save one. No gifting regions in a war zone (bordering faction at war with, or under threat).
No sacking Home Regions. Example: Ironborn Raiders sack Lannisport, afterwards Lannister can only occupy it. This rule only applies to your factions Starting/Home Regions.
Armies defeated by a player (b) that comes after the original player (a)'s turn cannot move next turn, so if Tyrell defeats a Lannister army that army cannot move next turn. - Exception: Reinforcing armies standing in defenses, even if defeated, don't lose movement points. So player 'a' is allowed to move the army that reinforced another while in a fort even if defeated by 'b'. Addendum to the same rule: no sallying out of a fort\castle which has forces which were defeated last turn. This is to make it fair for those who come last at the turn order, because they will not be able to do this NO ASSASSINATIONS. Assassins are entirely illegal and cannot be used. If recruited, you may not use them. NO WATCHTOWERS. You may place them during your turn to get a better view, but you must reload after placing them.
Princess must have over 30% odds of success in order to steal a general. Pictures must be posted as proof of these odds.
Princess (and Generals and Diplomats) may be captured by a hostile faction if caught and surrounded inside enemy lands. PM an admin to capture.
Players can claim the spoils of war. Defeated/Captured a general that carries a Valyrian sword? PM an admin to claim it.

Reason: update player list
I'll leave this here for players new to the community. If you've just joined us and are looking for an introduction to Hotseating, post here with your desired faction. Players from previous newblood games may not enter.
With the majority of the christmas rush out of the way, we'll see about filling this and getting started. I've VMed both of our current players to get confirmation that they are still here and interested.
I have played in HS previously, so I don't exactly qualify. But if you can't find someone to play Renly then I could take that faction if you need me to
I'll keep this on hold for the week and do some recruitment afterwards. In the meantime I suggest taking on another spot or two to keep yourselves busy.
I am completely new to this, and have no clue what I am doing sadly but hopefully I'll get to know it as I play, I was thinking of applying for Kingdom of the North if it is still open.
Well, the sooner that Stannis position is filled the sooner VI can finish. As this game stands it's 3 players (yourself included & assuming the other two are still interested) so it'll need a 4th. If you have the free time to take that Vi (Stannis) position, I'd appreciate it, ideally want that running smoothly prior to running this game. Then I can use the channel for some recruitment and fill this up since Parafix will be your admin here.
All yours. That's us full, although Nathy hasn't been online since the 13th, so he may need replacing. I'll get Parafix to start the game Asap as he'll be your admin.
