Re: Miltary Academy course

All who wish to learn are welcome Julian. Do note, though, that you will need to take a second class this month (whenever you wish, taught by an assistant), as well as later courses depending on your current skill.

Re: Silks and Sapphires customer policy and discount

I trust that 'nobles' in your message does not mean that those of us who have reached CHA 7 from humble but honest birth will now be required to shop elsewhere?

Re: Miltary Academy course

"The teacher can teach any week of a student's course. It doesn't matter."
So this course is not a substitution for one of the two weeks; it is one of the two weeks :D
['Advanced course' is not a term in the rules, just a bit of roleplay by me.]

Re: 1631 - 8 (Late Earth) - Appointments etc

Fionn announces a Battle course at the Lhankor Mhy temple in Week 3. In view of the limited response, this is likely to be the only Advanced course for some time, though private tuition may be available. Fionn also applies to be Aide to a Balkoth Chieftain, and to be a God-Talker of Lhankor Mhy. Fin...

Re: Miltary Academy course

Following representations from the respected Orlanthi, the Advanced Battle course will now take place in week 3, assuming we can muster enough keen tacticians. I urge anyone who aspires to command to take advantage of this; the Army's results this summer were distinctly mixed, and anything we can do...

Military Academy Courses

The current rules for PC Academy teachers have a small hole, which Quatlu has unerringly identified. If a student has Battle 6 (any lower and a PC teacher is not needed), presumably 6 two-week courses are needed, and the PC must have a Battle of at least 7. Does that teacher (or another with Battle ...

Re: Cult and Regimental Duties

Would it be possible to make skipping duties a positive order only? I.e. if Brandgor forgetfully puts in those orders he is hauled off to the Issaries temple, but if he writes "Week 4 Visit Temple of Uleria, ignoring cult duties" he is not, instead facing a cult tribunal (presumably next t...

Miltary Academy course

Following the wise words of King Argath that we will be fighting the empire of the Red Moon for the foreseeable future, I thought I would do something to help by teaching a course at the Military Academy in Late Earth; this course would cover not just the normal tactical skills but slightly more adv...

Re: Rescue rules queries

Since I think there will be the first rescue attempt this turn (but don't tell the Lunar Empire!), two more minor queries; Does STR in rescuers count, or just prisoners? And If a rescuer rolls exactly the death roll, is that a roll on the table, or automatic capture as it was before and the rules st...
