No I haven't seen the twins yet but I'll be on the lookout!

My medievals have been playing with swords and mucking about on the beach. This motley crew had fun burying each other in the sand :)



"Look at my sword, it is sparkly."
"Yes, well mine is icy!"

The boys compares swords (steady on now).



Ha! Check out Bronwyn's - it's on fire!



Silly sims.

[Figwit]

I don't think I ever got the fire one. I did get the ice one once.

I love seeing pictures of TSM. It is such a fun game.

It's quite cool isn't it - the Jacoban fire sword, or some such name. Bronwyn was the queen of my first realm and I'm rather attached to her. I made her a knight in my current kingdom, Dominatalot. I'm doing the ambition in which you have to try to annex lots of foreign territories. I haven't bothered much with the maps and things before doing this, but it's fun.

Her fire sword came from the quest to annex Yacothia, or whatever the Jacobans' country is called.

I loved how evilly excited she looked with her fiery weaponry.

I stuck with much the same sims throughout my playing as well. I get attached to mine too and still have twinges of guilt about them waiting for me when I see the little TSM startup icon.

I encountered the beautiful elf twins in the quest to wed the monarch to one of them. Political benefits with an outlying territory, plus a pale elfin beauty as your spouse. Not a bad deal really.



I experimented with this king to produce as many offspring as possible. The maximum in the household is three, as Simmerqueen told me back when I started :D/>. The extras can be sent away to various locations. I sent all the king's spares off to the culinary school. It's very sweet - they don't forget their daddy but instead send him samples of their cooking by post. He has received a lot of stew delivered by pigeon-mail and I think this assuaged his guilt at dispatching them all to boarding school in the first place.

The kids that were lucky enough to be kept at the castle didn't turn out too well. This young lady's already turned to drink. "Dad, can I have three bottles of ale for dinner?"



I have had a few minor bugs in some quests, but nothing game-breaking, but did notice that this monk had managed to superimpose himself into a bench in the Peteran church. Either that or the church has developed bench-stocks to make sure the congregation stay put during sermons!



And finally, a funny picture of Lady Bronwyn. Last time I played her I gave her the gluttony flaw, so she was hungry all the time, poor lass. Her maid was constantly producing bowls of food but Bronwyn was never satisfied. She positively attacked this bowl of soup and licked it clean with mad goggling hungry-eyes.



Nice to see someone enjoying their dinner!

Great pictures caspin! I remember how lovely the elf twins were. Once I played a queen and married the male elf twin, and once married the female when I was playing a king. The other character I thought quite striking was that flame-haired witch one encounters in one of the quests.

[Figwit]

Fun pictures. TSM really is a great game and I love the spin you put on the pics.

Those elf twins are just beautiful. My king married the lovely woman. I thought she was the loveliest sim I had ever seen though the male twin is equally as nice.

[Caspin]

The sad thing is that after my current king has married the lovely elf, she's going into the pit to meet the beast! I am trying to do the watcher achievement in which the monarch must marry four times in one kingdom ... and she will be wife number three so will be for the chop. It'll be a shame but I'll try to get a few pretty elf babies first.

:devil:/>

[Figwit]

What a horrible quest. I don't remember ever doing that one. I know I did one where I had to kill my king. I really thought it was a joke and he would jump back up crying 'Gotcha!'. I was quite upset when he didn't and I swear my Charles regarded me with a suspicious gleam in his eye ever afterwards.

[Caspin]

Oh I know - I haven't been able to bring myself to do the assassination quest yet and I've only two ambitions left to go! The multi-marriage thing isn't a quest though, just a watcher achievement, so you didn't miss a quest. I seem to have mucked it up anyhow, poor King has married six times and still has not been given the award!
