That's a good idea. But the added delay should be very small, or people 
will simply send 40 individual mails manually instead of "the entire duchy".


But a small delay might work, and encourage people a little to send to 
smaller lists and not spam everything to the entire realm.

  So this messege system, would make it so it takes a little longer to receieve messeges....depending on how far you are away from the sender?
   
  As in, if you are all in the same region waiting for battle orders, it may take 10-30 mins to receieve the orders from the general, but if you are 4 regions away in the city, It may take 4 hours?
   
  Sounds perfect to me.
