No it doesn't.

Yes it does, because he had the King be from the line of succession that I considered legitimate.

You really don't get how it doesn't affect his story, do you.
Damn but you are completely clueless.
So that's, what, the fifth "true heir" you've dug up thus far? I guess we can expect a new one sometime in the next fortnight or so.

NIAM IS MOCKING YOU.
Chapter 9 and 10 are coming out tonight.
I've revealed little enough about King Michael that I don't blame Jacob for assuming something needs to be altered.
And to basically say what is going on with these stories - I intend for there to be a bit of contrast between my offerings and what Jacob is typing out. So more or less - I'm mocking him by writing his own universe better than he does.
So that's, what, the fifth "true heir" you've dug up thus far? I guess we can expect a new one sometime in the next fortnight or so.
This time I’m sure I found the right one.
So that's, what, the fifth "true heir" you've dug up thus far? I guess we can expect a new one sometime in the next fortnight or so.It almost makes me feel sorry for the toffs, the poor bastards keep getting harangued by a weird little bastard called Jacob Harrison!
...I am reasonably sure the next one will be East European somehow.
Also, isn't Excalibur's Return entirely based on the idea of Jaime being King? There are multiple references to him in it.
And the whole conceit of it is Jacob's experience of a vision of a parallel universe where JAIME is the King. So unless the parallel universe he supposedly speaks of changes its legitimate new king whenever Jacob finds a new totally legit heir...
Ergo I think the current version will do just fine.
Also, gonna have to put off chapter 9 and 10 until tomorrow - got to head to bed early for an appointment tomorrow. But I do have a teaser for Chapter 10.(click to show/hide)
I traced the line of Cognatic primogeniture from the descendants of Adela of Normandy’s son Theobald II Count of Champagne.Oh, by the way, you did it wrong yet again. England didn't have cognatic succession until very recently, and changes to succession laws don't apply retroactively. As such, you need to trace the heir using the succession laws of the time, not the laws that exist today.

So yeah, have fun with that.

Cognitive primogeniture is male primogeniture which was the law of succession at the time.
Well then I used agnatic-cognatic primogeniture when tracing the rightful heir because the line went through females if someone did not have any sons.QuoteI traced the line of Cognatic primogeniture from the descendants of Adela of Normandy’s son Theobald II Count of Champagne.Oh, by the way, you did it wrong yet again.

Nope, that's agnatic premogeniture. Also bear in mind that England used agnatic-cognatic primogeniture later on in its history (females can inherit, but only if there are no males of the same lineage) for a few hundred years before switching over to absolute cognatic a few years ago.
So yeah, have fun with that.
Well then I used agnatic-cognatic primogeniture when tracing the rightful heir because the line went through females if someone did not have any sons.For the entirety of the line, or just when England actually had agnatic-cognatic succession?

By the time of Henry II, England’s had Agnatic-cognatic succession because Henry II was the son of Henry II’s Matilda. I traced what should have been the agnatic cognatic succession after him.
