You know I hate for to have to come to this but maybe that is a good idea, I mean having actual kings as player could be better becuase its more fun but when things get out of hand and you have kings and kingdoms who dont RP then I guess it has to come down to this. Unless an actualy player could be king but he woudlnt have lotsa power and the thing with the declaring war and stuff would still happen and the when the king sint actually online an NPC of him would apear snoozing on the throne,
and even if he is online he can be captured cus like maybe if someone in the opposite kingdom runs up and "grabs" him i.e. used the A button then he is dragged behind them by a rope,
and just so hte king doesnt make it impossible there could be a thing making it so he isnt able to run around in circles which would be completely OOC becuase being outnumbered he woud mostlikely submit. So like if there are many more enemies then him, a timer in a system NPC ticks down and he has like 10 seconds to escape but if he doesnt escapre in that amount of time he automatically freezes and says: Ok, I give up
then someone ties him up and hauls him off.
And like people said a kigndom could have a sealable entrance like dustari but there would have to be a way to get past it,
like if it were a gate if the enemies would have to use a battering ram, and it would be a thing they all use together and work together and when they hit the gate enough it breaks,
or like someone sugested they could all manually pull out the dustari bridge, or maybe they could like somehow make a bridge across. and the defenders woud be shooting arrows trying to keep them from crossing an =d we could have seiges and stuff,
rather then its current state where battle are impossible, and most kingdoms just sit there doing nothing.....

With players as kings, Graal isn't a game. You might as well play in a Chat room then. Having NPC kings would be a big step toward making Graal more of a game.

Please explain yourselve Fai,
graal is more interesting and fun with a player king,
it adds more excitement and variety to the game,
with a player king their can be heated political arguments..
and with a king there can be..
well..
heated "Im the king who are you."
I rest my case..

the npc king should be carryable and he should try to hide when he is dropped

but once he is taken out of the gate, its a victory
(no running through the entire graal and dropping him in the river)

It would be better with a player king,
then also they could put him in a wagon...
haul him off to their castle and excecute him,
or they could even humiliate him more by excecuting him infront of his own castle and soldiers...
like I said player kings could be good as long as certain standards and restricrions are set so that the guilds still fight and P and stuff rather then sit on their lazy tushes

no because the king would just reconnect or take off his tag

Well wouldn't cha' know, it's not. That was in reply to a question. :rolleyes: :o

That would mean the king is very *** and then a Kingdom Admin would remove him from his position and obliterate his character by striking him down with special lighting!!!!!!!!!

The beauty of it is that it limits the power of people in the kingdom while maintaining a reliable leader. Only 1 kingdom in history has maintained a reliable leader for a long time, and that would be the Pirate Crew.

Although, Tyealia, in the last 5 days hasn't lost Cloud X. Good job so far! [grumble]

Not the mention the fact that in my idea whenever the king is not logged on he is replaced by an NPC of himself sleeping,
if he wa son the throne it is sitting on the throne sleepng,
if he was standing up then it is lying in the middle of the floor sleeping like a drunkard,
so he could still be captured even if he is not online and then he would work as an NPC being as if whenever he was dropped or whateve rhe would scramble to get away..
and if the king took his tag off the almighty not yet existing kingdom admins would kill him

NO MORE ADMINS

hey dante, when i get back, let me borrow one of those angel of death flaming swords and well go get em, tiger!

Scratch the idea, it's bad!!!! I hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it hate it!

As Dante pointed out Ghost Pirate has remained a relaible leader and if he is replaced by a dumb NPC sitting their dtealing ym qoute and saying I Aaarrrrrrrrrre a pirate!
I will be really pissed,
also an NPC leader can steer a boat or actually help us in a sea battle so it would suck

feival do you know what a sentence is?

having about 6 commas and 7 "ands" doesnt help
you sound like a retard and keep touching on small issues that need to be worked out

similarly, no kingdom would really want to take over the pirate boat
and ghost pirate would still be a reliabe commander of troops
