I have a nice wife, a nice fief too, a castle on a hill with a magnificent view. I have fertile lands, and villages that thrive, hundreds of troops who somehow stay alive. My coffers are heavy, my warband is fed, my enemies see my banner and occasionally drop dead. I have horses and armor, silver and grain, a hall full of nobles complaining again. By every measure, I’ve won at this game. I’ve conquered, grown wealthy, and built up my name. Yet I stand on my battlements when the campaigning is done, watching the mountains fade with the sun. My wife is beside me. My kingdom is strong. My vaults overflow. But something feels wrong. I’ve everything a lord could possibly acquire… Maybe what’s missing another fief to desire. submitted by /u/t-o-m-u-s-a [link] [comments]
This has been asked before but I want to hear the opinions of the players these days. Which of the claimants do you think is the most rightful to claim their kingdom's throne?
In my opinion, the most rightful is;
Prince Valdym the Bastard — He went through a tough childhood. His father died when he was young leaving him in the care of his uncle, the regent, Burelek. His mother was executed for "adultery" and he was declared a bastard. He would have been executed as well had it not been for the faithful servant that smuggled him away. While Yaroglek's claim to the throne is legitimate as well, I believe that Valdym is the more rightful one.
And the least rightful is;
Lord Kastor of Veluca — Graveth violated the rules of the election and threaten the council members to leave them to their fate was he not elected a king, but Kastor never said why he should be a king. He even admitted that the Swadian raiding party was, in fact, a real threat. The council had never finished deciding to which of them should be voted the king. Graveth spent years with the army, leading his men shedding blood in defense of the Rhodok people, while Kastor, I believe, was trying to win the votes of the patricians by befriending them. Kastor might be smart, but he sounds corrupt to me.
