Subject: Re: [Discuss] Starting more wars

You're focusing too much on the ruler/council axis in this discussion. 
Counts and other lords tend to be more readily changed to new people. 
Right now, a region lord pretty much stays the lord until the character 
pauses or voluntarily steps down. This is one of the biggest things 
preventing new people from advancing in the ranks. A simple counts 
positions can go a long way towards being accepted as a duke or council 
member.

-----------------
Do we want to add more reasons for a region lord to not be active in war?
If getting wounded or captured caused the region to be lordless then tax
income will be halved and his estates will go idle, possibly causing the
region to go rogue before a new lord could be appointed.  The effect will be
that kings and dukes will appoint the less active characters to lord
positions.
