Liminal En Garde Revised Rulebook 1.3.pdf (982.6 KB) New draft! Not a lot of major changes here and the ones there are like mistress influence are already discussed. Decided to go with the Sun King Mistress influence levels. It works out better for most of you and gives Hulluame a special advantage from the fact his soon to be wife is going to hit SL 19! Solidified Doctor/Advocate & Musician rules. Few changes I'm happy for feedback on; I'm not massively attached to them but they made sense to me. Those on campaign now pay housing and draft/racehorse costs as well as mistress upkeep. This just made more sense to me. You wouldn't let your mansion fall into disrepute. Confirmed that many academic courses are three weeks in one go. This has always been a bit vague, but it's now official to standardise things! (Yes, this means students may take a SP hit, which I think works in term of the design goal of getting people to try and have too much to do rather than to little. But if people think that's overly harsh say so!)

Some more questions:
In Royal Balls, it's said prople is allowed to attend them even if they have already attended court all the weeks allowed.
So, Huillaume, either as a Baron or as a Captain of the guards, can attend the court twice a month, as the balls don't count, could he attend the three balls (being at Toulleries, the King's ban does not affect him)?
Also, Chevaliers may only attend as guests of a higher noble. Can such a noble bring more than a single Chevalier as guests (there are currently 4 chevaliers among the PCs, though one is at front, Could Huillaume invite them all or only one)?
Do players that will be formally given the title of chevalier on the 3rd week count already as Chevlaiers for the ball on the 1st week?
You told about raising the immunity to drunkness fro mthe Royal Balls and private parties and balls, yet in the new rules it is still there. Did you change your mind, or did you forgot to change it?

Correct. Only one who must toady to you the entire time. However, I'm going to change the just spotted rule in 34.4. You can now bring your mistress and a guest (who can bring their mistress). Yes. Forgot to change it. You can now get drunk. |

I probably missed it in the rules but am I to understand that Chevaliers are not allowed to attend Royal Balls?
I assume that they are permitted to attend their own titling ceremony.

Chevaliers may only attend as the guest of a higher ranked Noble.
Presumaby the King counts? (As he is going to look a little... confused... if the new Chevalier is not there!)

Carriages:
As rules for them have changed, I guess the fine coach Huillaume purchased some time ago is now a 2 horsed carriage. Right?
IMHO, as other PCs may have coaches too, the equivalency should be specified...

It seems so, as I download them again and you're right (though the ones read before were also labeled as 1.2)
Are there serveral Liminal rules 1.2?
Then, how many people can a fine coach accomodate?

This is starting to remind me of a discussion about how warp engines operate in a PbF games of Star Trek I run. 😊

Oh, I see, I confused Liminal Rules Revised Rulebook 1.2 with Liminal House Rules 1.2...

"Liminal En Garde House Rules 1.2" are the out of date ones. "Liminal En Garde Revised Rulebook 1.2" is the right one! And that's a very good question. I think we'll say four people for any coach; it's not really the done thing to treat it as a commerical stagecoach after all! |

This is starting to remind me of a discussion about how warp engines operate in a PbF games of Star Trek I run. 😊 If the question was about the physical principles the warp drives operato on, it's quite easy to answer: "They work on (put here a scientific name) effect, discovered by the scientific who gives name to it in 22 nd century (so, asking about it now would be as asking Newton under what principle a Fision Power Plant works). If (s)he does not understand the question is not pertinent, you should wonder if (s)he deserves keep investing your time... But if the questions were about the game mechanics and effects to treat with them, the question was fully pertinent, IMHO |

Can one bet at the horses race if he does not attend it (assuming though some intermediary)?
