You guys probably know that Paradox just published Crusader Kings 3

There used to be a Birthright MOD for CK2 though the development stopped on account of a hard coded error that could not be...

Nothing special to say... just testing if it works :)

Yah. I'm not saying that people should change the way they play the game or that BRSC should be changed to reflect this, but knowing that surnames were not used as they are today might provide an...

Wir CAROLUS der Vierte / von Gottes Gnaden / Römischer Käyser / zu allen zeiten Mehrer des Reichs / und König in Böhem

Aldebrandin, von gottes und des apostolischen stuhls gnaden markgraf von Este...

If that's how you'd explain it in your campaign, why not. But as for official, I doubt there'll ever be a satisfying argument for the mish mash in BR

A cadet or junior branch of Diemed would still inherit or claim the ducal title. Only if they were completely unrelated to Diemed could they possibly accept a lowering of their status. To relinquish...

IMO Rich Baker didn't have a deeper understanding on how medieval nobility looked at titles when he was designing Birthright. The principal flaw is that no aristocrat would ever give up a title, even...

Thing is, galleons could be sailed by a skeleton crew, since they took into consideration the effects of disease, malnutrition etc, which isn't a factor in Birthright since the distances are so...

In the 2nd ed the crew of a galleon was considered a unit of irregulars when disembarked.

How is this handled in BRSC? I've looked up the galleons on the net and it is stated that a typical crew...

I agree with your explanation regarding population density and rulership, but there is just one thing that doesn't add up: sources. If all of these people are there from the beginning, either as...

I was looking for the map of the Imperial city and I remembered the old online city project. Any chance that someone still has that map and could mail it to me (rkurelic @ gmail.com) or post it...

I don't know if this has been discussed before but how would bloodlines translate into divine ranks. I.E. How many blood points should one have to ascend to DR 1 for example. Those of true bloodline...

Won't it present a copyright infringement? As I understand it, the map is composed of the parts from the setting and the sourcebooks and as such probably subject to WotC copyright.

Excellent map. A pity that the game designers didn't include roads in all the sourcebooks. Instead it appears that only the Khinasi and the Rjurik use this "sophisticated" technology :)

"But when Azrai was destroyed, the Lost’s hold on Cerilia disappeared, and they were drawn through the curtain and imprisoned in the Shadow World. Only two of them, the Raven and the Magian, are...

Shouldn't bloodtheft have a scale with regards to bloodline strenght?

What I mean is that someone of great or true bloodline should probably not gain much if any power when bloodthefting someone...

Its nice to see some fresh blood in BR. :)

First of all, Birthright PBEMs differ much from the computer game, not so much in format, but in spirit. Whereas in the game you were conquering and...

What are the stats for elite units?
It says in chapter 6 that elite units can take 2 special trainings, but elite is not defined in terms of bonuses, only green, standard and veteran are listed

I just noticed that the Gorgon doesn't get RPs from sources. He has no ranks in knowledge (arcana) or knowledge (nature). Isn't that a bit silly? :) Additionally, shouldn't he have lead skill and...

Perhaps a fortification could add to the level of the holding for the purposes of defending against contest only (no income, rps, offensive contest etc) AND unless destroyed it could regenerate the...

I tend to agree with Bearcat's reasoning and I'd like to add a few thoughts on the matter.

The primary function of a castle in the middle ages was not to defend against an invader, it was the...

What I find strange is the fact that Michael Mhoried and Lasica Diem are listed as having the same bloodline score as their fathers. Unless the Mhor and Diem families are practicing the ancient...

I was using raise dead as an example spell for 5th level. It wasn't my intention to determine the exact number of casters for any particular deity. If I really wanted to do that I'd add up all the...

Actually, reading this I can imagine a whole new range of activities in Anuire, illicit bloodline trade, guilds operating it, villains running the show, and decadent nobles buying bloodlines like...

To sell the blood of the Gods? The very thing that separates mortals and living gods that walk on Cerilia? I don't think that even the greediest, most radical people would want to part with their...
