However I was playing GURPS at the time it came out but was inspired by the setting and so used the regency ideas but with my own mechanic (which I have since D20-ised)This was something I did. Instead of the regency being tied to Bloodlines I instead made it 'Status' which could be earned and used to 'influence' othersIn play this is what I found to be the best way to handle things - the PCs as 'lieutenants' acting as agents of the ruling authority. It means they can influence things but are not so tied in to having to 'rule' and thus can spend their attention on adventuring if they needI played games where the PCs were rulers each with there own domain and these were fun, I also played normal adventures in the setting and had fun. The problem came with trying to mix the two modes - which can be done but because they run on different time scales can lead to confusion</blockquote>
