Default Re: Starting Population Amount

I don't think there is a randomness added. It might be the result of scales or castles or something else, but to my knowledge the start pop is set to 30 k.

Don't do it Kris! Hurry, if you delete the post now, not many people will have seen it! Oh and delete mine too, since it quotes you.

But I must say, multiple starts with the same pretender, on a map with fixed starting locations WILL in fact yield varying starting pop. <3

Just did 3 starts with same pretender, on same starting province. All 3 had different starting pop, ranging from 29560-30380. I know that the deviation is potentially larger than that, but as was pointed out, it really is just another random factor, I can deal with it - or drop over dead if it really is the end of the world. I'm pretty sure we'll be okay though.

Ah, that's nice. I like randomness.

I was afraid it was all structured and balanced. We can't have that can we

KO is actually the Joker. Look at the letters. They both wear purple. You never see them together.

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!!

I was going to go anagram hunting, but there is no J in Kristoffer Ostermann. Come to think of it, I've never seen GW Bush and Satan in the same place, either. O.O
