Choosing kingdom leaders(kings)...

There should be a quest or something to actually become the ruler. Like the way a person becomes leader of a clan. A person who wants to rule could get 10 supporters and the 10 of them would have to complete a quest through the leadership of the possible future ruler.

Or just set up a system where the actual players choose their leader ingame and can revolt or overthrow the leader and replace them.

On 2k1 we had the same boring leaders day in and day out, half the time they weren't even on. The fact that they can't lose the power goes to their heads and they just dictate everything. Kings are not dictators, so having some semi-permenant king is unrealistic and VERY boring.

If you don't like my suggestion that's fine, but please come up with a better system then: "I'll pick the leader for each kingdom". Kingdoms don't develop that way. A king should be able to lose his title in five seconds if he doesn't do what is necessary to keep it, including gaining the respect and loyalty of the people.

On 2k1 you could overthrow the leaders...

For example

I, Zurkiba, overthrew Darkvillian as Zormite Emperor
I, Zurkiba, overthrew that Icehawk dude as Samurai Emperor
A few select group in Dustari kind of overthrew Kamuii.
Ghost Pirate and others took over Dustari and overthrew Kamuii.
Dustari took over Zormite and overthrew Zyoko person.

So the kings had to have the will of the people to reign harshly apon them.




2k2 System...
Just keep it the way it is... if you dont like the leader then pillage their houses as a thief or something.
