Morgramen & the Lady Fae

Hello folks,

I'm new to the Birthright list, and the Birthright game system as well.
I am seeking help & advice on the intricacies of regency & the workings
of the game system in general. I have read the rule book a dozen times,
but am still a little more than confused. (I think my copy may have
been written in basarji...)

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you'd like, you might try writing out specific questions to individuals
on the list... most would be happy to help. And I do mean individuals--as
in plural. Take a question, write it to one person, and spread your
questions out. Generally, the people you find answering questions to the
list would be happy to answer questions for you in private email.

Like Eric said, we'd be more than happy to *try* and answere any specific
questions you have. It's really hard to answer a "tell me everything you
know" type question.
I think we all agree that there are a number of confusing things about BR,
like AD&D in general. By now you probably worked out all your problems with
the later (at least in ways that work for you). So my general advice is as
follows:

If any rule is confusing, or just doesn't work for you, just come up with
the best solution for *your* campaign. Even if the rest of us disagree.
Collary: Don't be afraid to tinker with your interpretations even after
the campaign begins. You may find that you don't like some things (like,
for example, Ruling Provinces to high levels) to be so easy, so you come up
with house rules to achieve the balance you like.
Collary of the Collary: experiment. And then report back how well/badly
your house rules worked. We can all learn from each other's experiences.
