..if anybody would care to listen.
The idea has been kind of percolating around my head for a while, and is essentially what I'd call a Quantum Crusader's Leap, i.e. the first player gets assigned a random county and plays it's direct owner until he dies, then the next player takes over with another, different, random county and plays that until the character dies, and so on. There probably have to be a bit of leeway for players that get shafted with a ruler that dies quicky, e.g. under 2 years.
It'd be a very random game, but it might be a blast altogether.
edit: looking at the provinces list here, there are 1463 total provinces in the game with c. 100-150 sea river and ocean provinces. I'd use that list to generate the random counties.
