Rulers, and tyrants by that extension, don't really have much power left 
with which they could strike fear into even an lowly knight. A duke is 
more powerful and feared than a tyrant on any given day and that's just sad.

Many of the recent changes are making Battlemaster less a game and more 
an medieval simulator. Whether that's fun or not really depends on the 
player. Personally, I'm leaning towards the no.

I'd say quite a few of any given realms players. They'll blame the 
marshal/general/whoever and make him feel like crap.
