Modify the Randomness!
Ok, building off my "Random" thread, here is an idea for a slightly less chaotic mage recruitment system.
When recruiting a mage, instead of having a random magic path(s) automatically selected, being able to select a "student" mage from a "pool" of student mages would be nice.
So, you want to recruit a Sage this year. You get to choose a Sage student to promote, out of a pool of 8 randomly generated "student" Sages. Throw in a variable for number of provinces were you can recruit a Sage from, and you have pool=8+(# of Sage recruitment provinces). You could make the 8 students be a random # instead (3-8?).
I'm sure some "students" would get frustrated, married, whatever, and leave the academy, so you could throw in another random to "rotate" some candidates out of the pool, thus getting new potential picks without having to recruit them.
Just a thought.
