Patent of Nobility Card (where are you?)

Patent of Nobility

HMmmmmm...
I asked to become Count of Markham in the Old Expanses (a water world)
What I received is:
Count of the Solomani Rim
Solo (I-0528) kidashi A557A69-E
And:
Sir Chuck Anumia
Troj (D-2902) Bleak C9C6225
Along with my TAS card for Bleak.
I suppose the being the Count of the Solomani Rim is better than the count of a single planet. *Grins*
 
Really chuffed, my Traveler 5 present arrived yesterday her in the UK.
My Beta CD arrived a couple of weeks ago.

I asked for Spinward Marches Five Sisters, so pleased with:

Knight and a Baron on Spinward Marches 0732 Iderati A887798-C

Also have:
Knight on 2212 K'Kirka CAA5345-8
Baron on 2137 Sorel E58569A-2

TAS Membership on 1727 Wardn B756486-B

Outside Spinward Marches (from my T5 Beta Update)
Knight on Core 0418 Shardi E43398A-A

I think the nobility is an excellent idea. Fleshing out some of the nobles as patrons, working out their land grant (including the land on other planets in the system) give a nice solo walk through a lot of the rules and concepts.
 
Now a Count

Got mine yesterday

The Knight read ZARU 2207 Exmin A667578-D, great world to be born on... if only I knew where it is.

The Count of the Spinward Marches read Spin 2408 Rethe E430AA8-8
A desert world with 11 billions of inhabitants ruled by a charismatic dictator. I started to build a rational for those figure.

Selandia
Count of the Spinward marches
 
I think Zaru is an abbreviation for Zarushagar sector left and down from Core.
Nice place in 1105 not so nice 1125, think I would start a 10 year bender sometime around 1116 ;)

Agreed, I was thinking it that way before looking in 1125 because of the way the fluff is shaping.

The Baron -installed at 29 in 1104 at the death of his father - acheive its zenith after the "Election of 1108", when elevated to Marquis. To enhance his Marquis holding, he pushes very hard for the so called "Shoreline quota entitlement" law that help local fisherman (and provide a good quota for his new local Domain ) and upset some powerfull people in the "bigger factory-trawler is better" business. They trip him in a yet unnamed affair and force him to exile in the Spinward Marches in 1111. That is where my ideas and yours match, so I do not care much about exmin after 1111 - or any other date that simply gets established 36 years after his birth-. There he get involved in the "Milagro scheme" starting 1112 and get elevated to straight to Count in 1124 when His Lordship become patron as a Count.

That brings some questions:

Sir Selandia Ballin, Soc B on the start-up roll, could start Baron, I presume ?
Could he be elevated straight from Marquis to Count to match the Card or do I need to fluff a Viscount plot?

For the Marquis, I flufed a new (small) holding on Exmin (Marquis of Anticosti) for plot purpose How do I work the offworld holding? My discretion or is there some kind of rule that prevent me to claim downtown New-York?

Thanks,

Selandia

Count of the Spinward marches

P.S. it is not countess, for Selandia is the name of the first ocean going motorship, despite the usully female form "ia"; Ballin is for the genius that made HAPag the largest shipping co of the world before ww1
 
I'm a Knight on Pack, a little C200747-A world in the Ximenes subsector of Alpha Crucis, a mere 10 parsecs coreward from the Solomani Sphere's border.

My TAS card was issues on Oeng, in Antares sector, and right up against the Imperial border of the empty quarter.
