Tinto Talks #15 - June 5th 2024

[Johan]

Can we put the Capets back on the thrones of France ? Either by playing France or Navarra and Burgundy ?

not easily

 

[Johan]

What does the "er" represent in King Henri 1er? Is this an abbreviation of a title?

french regnal number stuff iirc

 

[Johan]

Will they use the DNA files system?

Some sort of dna.

I want historical guys to look similar to what we expect them to look like.

 

[Johan]

Others have pointed out the presumably-placeholder names for distant countries, but what is up with that splotch of (Gediminid?) Purple around future St Petersburg? I am not aware of Ingria being independent at this time.

Pretty sure there is a Novgordian vassal there ruled by a relative of the Lithuanian Duke.


Oreshek was ruled by Alexander Narimuntovich who was a grand son of the Lithuanian Duke.. appointed in 1333 iirc

 

[Johan]

Will brothers and sisters of rulers also be able to have children?

They need to be married though

 

[Johan]

Can characters become rebels and rebel leaders?

yes

 

[Johan]

Does this mean that there are many different succession laws in Project Caesar, also, can we entice union members to change their succession laws, so the union doesn't break?

We will talk about Unions work in detail later on

 

[Johan]

Don`t rulers die when they give up the throne, do they?

no

 

[Johan]

Also, with regards to children.

Is there anything you can do as a ruler to boost the number of children, or is it sort of random? (based on fertility)

not in the game no.

 

[Johan]

1.what happens if my country changes dynasty?

you get new rulers

 

[Johan]

1. Since rulers must belong to an estate, Peasant Republics will have rulers from commoners and trade republics from burghers, right?

most likely yes

 

[Johan]

Will there be a “dynasty” and “house” system? I am thinking of the case of the Capetians, with the Valois in France, and the “Capets” in Navarre.

no.

 

[Johan]

1. Do characters stop learning once they grow up (other than gaining traits)?

yes, in almost all cases.

 

[Johan]

I'm pretty sure the 3D models were made way before anyone here heard of "Project Caesar".

this.

 

[Johan]

Do you have more sprites for catholic crowns? Or do you have only the crown of Saint Wenceslas?

there are 2 atm, and will be at least 3 more.

 

[Johan]

Love the changes. But why does diplomatic ability impact on navy related thing?

it also impacts the morale on armies when a character is a general.


diplomacy here is a "charisma"-style attribute

 

[Johan]

One thing not mentioned: will we have some sort of character loyalty mechanism?

no, it will not be in Project Caesar.

 

[Johan]

Boo I want to make abominations! Is this hard coded or can it be adjusted e.g. for certain cultures or religions (COUGHzoroastriansCOUGH)?

moddable ofc

 

[SaintDaveUK]

The Portuguese dynasty should be "De Borgonha".

Would it be possible to change "de Burgundy" to "de Borgonha" for the Portuguese ruling dynasty? O

Having this anglo-portuguese naming though is a bit weird. I'd prefer "de Borgonha" or "of Burgundy", but at the very least please add the "de" rather than "da". Thank you!

I like this. In such cases it should be "de" rather than "da"

 

[Johan]

I wonder if we could get a cosmetic set with crowns in the future?

Like TF2 hats? Sure, I suspect its doable.
