NRB Plays The King's Dilemma | Episode 4 | Campaign

Happy Christmum and Hail to the NeRBs!

Today we celebrate the Divine Mother and all of her daughters. 

That's why the High Council of Ankist has been locked up, yet again, in a medium sized barn to discuss the fate of their beloved people. They're the top 1% see, so they make the decisions. 

And they're always great decisions! You know that!

Just to reiterate a couple of things: SPOILER ALERT! This is a narrative focussed game so if you have any intention of playing your own campaign of King's Dilemma then think carefully before you watch! Also, The King's Dilemma poses some serious moral and ethical quandaries for the players to debate while roleplaying as their houses, neither the players nor the game itself endorse subject matters raised here.

Thank you as ever for your support! We hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did making it!

Just binging Through the series and wondering if the values of military, welfare etc. Have any influence on the Story. Like you are at war if military is 13 or higher this happens and if it’s lower something else happens?

Although if you guys end up catching Alex Kay’s scoring correction above — Holly, Dom, and Sullivan should each have 2 fewer crave and 2 additional prestige.

Will Seamon

Updated Scores: Ken: 13 prestige, 4 crave Laurie: 9 prestige, 7 crave Holly: 7 prestige, 6 crave Dom: 6 prestige, 6 crave Sullivan: 0 prestige, 9 crave

**SPOILERS ABOUT GAME SCORING* As there always needs to be a Last place and positions are shared, the actual scoring would have been: Laurie and Ken: 1st Place Dom, Sully and Holly: Last Place Which is funny as, with the kingdom suffering a blow under the mismanagement under King SecondDaughter I, those in last place were the least effective bad guys (ie, "the good guys") earning two Prestige and not Crave! House Rules strikes again!

Alex Kay

lol my first thought when seeing the runtime is that this one's not going to go well for the King at all

John Marnell

Additional rules correction: when everyone chooses secret agendas, it doesn’t go clockwise — it goes from lowest prestige to highest prestige.

Will Seamon

Great Game: To answer your question on ties, even though tied players receive the same rewards, if there is a case where only a singular person can have something, like the signature on a sticker or anything that requires a name, the moderator always breaks ties. Also, I am not sure of this, but there is always a last place, even in the presence of ties. Check to be sure on this, but for some reason, the rules impresses that last part. Otherwise, great game, and seemingly fitting of your story that you tank the kingdom...again.

I look forward to these every month! I really enjoy this game, and I'm trying to get some friends together to do some kind of legacy game like this.

Ok it has just been announced that a Chinese chess champion has been stripped of his title due to cheating. To quote the BBC he been accused of cheating by using a communication device analogous to anal beads. I think this guy has watched this.
