Check out a board game called "Samurai" 1979 by Avalon Hill. It was supposed to be a Japanese version of Kingmaker. The only difference was instead of...
Thanks, I thought there was something of the kind. I've also heard about something called "Shogunmaker", but I think this is a home made game brought out for...
No, because he is the direct heir of the Duke of York. Similarly the list doesn't include the Prince of Wales or the Earl of Warwick. The system is based on...
I understand your reasoning, but Clarence and Gloucester were too young to participate in any campaigns of the 1450s. March was old enough and certainly didn't...
Well, yes, but in designing these game mechanics you have to accept that from any given start date historicity goes out the window; any character can be killed...

Has Kingmaker ever made it online for play? How about just a PC version fairly new? Still have the board game but finding opponents is hard. Appreciate your...
... Hi Don Have a look at http://zappa.brainiac.com/yankeeap/pbem.htm (Long time since I have) you would also need Cyberboard. (Free). All the best Peter L-J...
Yeah, there was a british site that offered the game online, but the problem was people would sign up and then stop playing after only a few turns. Very...
Conception is next weekend! Here are some important details about the show. Where: College of DuPage Student Resource Center 425 Fawell Blvd. Glen Ellyn, IL...
Hello, It has been a long time since I sent a message. I have not been inactive, but mainly been busy with redoing the cards. After I have finished the cards,...
Hey Hans, Looking forward to your card designs; like the sample ones here in the group. Regarding earnings and costs--I think that if you bring them in, you...
Hello Derek, Thanks for your reaction. It will take me more time than expected to upload the cards. I made them, or in some cases remade them, in Photoshop. A...
My view on the troop strengths: Apart from the Calais garrison, the troops commanded by a noble would be retained by him under contract, so would be available...
I think that bringing finances into Kingmaker would certainly reduce the abstractness of the game, but that is no reason to dismiss it. The difficulty lies...
A Nobles strength was usually seen by the amount of troops they were able to muster. The nobles troop number is already given. It is a very eloquent way to...
Whether or not the opportunity to pillage was used by a particular leader as a recruiting tool, it was sometimes given in lieu of unpaid wages to the soldiers...
Prussian, Would like your opinion, as you are the only one to include County Sheriffs in KM. Should the Sheriff only be assigned to a Noble that has a holding...
Pillaging was very bad polically speaking. You can do it, but you should lose cities and towns. Also, you should get a permanent minus to your Commons. ...
Who currently owns the rights to publish Kingmaker? [] Adrian Nelsen aka Rassilon [] "What appears to be coming at you is coming from you" Jack Flanders. ...
Avalon Hill only owned the rights to Kingmaker in the US, and that was on license from a company in England. And it may not have been a unlimited license - it...
Curious because so many other Avalon Hill titles have been acquired or moved on to other publishers. [] Adrian Nelsen aka Rassilon [] "What appears to be...
Sheriffs were usually drawn from the local gentry, not the nobility. Â However these gentry were usually retained by a local magnate, so the suggestion is...
This is for the Prussian (and any one else who cares to chime in), Prussian, in your AdvKM Bishops set, why do you give more troops to Cantabury over York? I...
Of course some important offices were held by Bishops, including many holders of the Chancellor and Treasurer positions. Theoretically, then, any Bishop might...
Prussian, I believe certain Bishops _should_ be allowed provisional troops because of their roles. Durham, due to its Paletinate status; Carlisle and York,...
