question, do all dead players from opposing families have to be replaced immediately? |

Yes, if you have sufficient funds to buy them. |

Montallegro and San Martino finally managed to bring their gangs together, after days of feeling each other out! A neutral pitch on a nearby mountain served as the place to play, and the game was an intense running game! Montallegro started with a quick 2-0 lead, but San Martino promptly equalized 2-2! Then the blizzard started! More damage was caused from failed GFI's and dodges than from both teams combined, Montallegro failed to modernize any faces, and both Trapani blitzers somehow managed to earn MVP's, apparently because they scored the 'important' touchdowns for both teams! Unbelievable!

Will my Bodyguard (Ogre) be a member of my family? In other words, will he grant the family respect for casualties etc? Or will he only grant respect as part of the team? I figure it's only as part of the team, since I have to hire him from Tilea, but I could be wrong. This also determines his naming; if he is a member of the family, his last name obviously needs to match the family; if he isn't a member of the family, then he won't have any of the families last name (in fact, in this case, I won't even be giving him a last name, to represent his outsider status).
Also: Per Favara vs Rocella, Rocella promoted one family member to associate (Viola) and one family member to soldier (Vincenzo), so should have +25 respect for that match. |

He will only grant respect as part of the team, not the Family. Although it doesn't really matter anymore as you've already passed the 300 Respect mark and will probably be the only Family to have done so . Looks like Giovanni will take the mantle of 'The Godfather', and he'll need that bodyguard to survive. |

Does his name need to be Italian? I was thinking of making it a pure nickname, 'The Golem' to reflect that his sole purpose is bodyguard. |

I doubt it as the Montallegros have to play the Borgo Molaras in their last game and it looks like Kalminael has gone AWOL as he's not been on for 8 days . |

Now I just need 20k more gold! Grargh! All this beautiful land I'm winning from people, and I still can't afford to hire The Golem! |

btw, I'm assuming I play next game, then name him Godfather? And then we play at least another season to see if he becomes Godfather (Before which we can open up recruitment again? Since we don't actually play KO, we only need an even number of players)? And if not, how does it work?
Also, I would be interested in continuing on afterwards; we can keep inviting new people season after season, with the extra goal that they all want to kill the current Godfather; whenever the Godfather dies, the player with the most SPP from a family with over 300 respect gets named the new Godfather (instead of always from the family with the most respect, since it looks like this system will make it hard, although not impossible, to 'catch up' in respect - although maybe you want to tweak the system?) Anyway, my point is, I love Omerta and would like to continue playing for some time. |

Yes that is correct if Giovanni survives the next game vs the Borgo Molaras he gets nominated as 'The Godfather' and then he has to survive a Season. Not sure what we'll do if Kalminael doesn't retuen as I don't think it will be fair to bring in a new Family at this point. We may have to do the League with 7 Teams but this means we'll each have to sit out a Round each. Or maybe we could set it up in an Open League format (although I don't really like Open Leagues).

My intention is to have the League finish after a Godfather is crowned. And then follow it up with other Omerta Leagues with different Races e.g. Omerta-Clan War, Omerta-Tribal Warfare and Omerta-Day Of The Dead. The Coach who wins 'Cosa Nostra' will be able to choose the next Race and they will also be able to start with an extra Reroll as the prize for winning the Omerta (I know not a great prize but it's all I can offer ). But I still need to work out which races are viable in the same format. As with some Races it's impossible to start with 7 positionals and others don't have an option of 7 positionals at all (a different format would need to be worked out for those teams). Viable Teams now worked out and added at the bottom of this post. Some races we could even have together for example the for 4 elf races or the 3 undead races.
The only downside with this is that the Teams we have built up this Omerta will be left on the wayside. I've been trying to figure out a way for them not to be wasted but the best I can come up with is after a few Omertas we do a best of Omerta where we can each choose a favourite team from all Omertas played and have a mixed Race Omerta League.
As always I'm open to ideas so feel free to post ideas here for discussion.
Here is a list of possible Races that will work in the current format.
7 positionals and money for Rerolls and other Extras
Amazon - Omerta-Queen Of The Jungle
Chaos Dwarf
Khemri - Omerta-Day Of The Dead
*Necromantic - Omerta-Day Of The Dead
Norse - Omerta-Lord Of The North
Nurgle - Omerta-Lord Of Nurgle
Orc - Omerta-Tribal Warfare
Skaven - Omerta-Clan War
Undead - Omerta-Day Of The Dead
**7 positionals and enough money for 1 Reroll only
Elf - Omerta-House Of Cards
High Elf - Omerta-House Of Cards
*Necromantic - Omerta-Day Of The Dead
Slann
**7 positionals and no money for Rerolls
Dark Elf - Omerta-House Of Cards
Wood Elf - Omerta-House Of Cards
*Necromantic fall into 2 categories as it depends on how you build them.
**Picking these Races means that the winner of the previous Omerta will lose out on the Extra Reroll they are entitiled too. |
