Minion Rules:
Minions will have open recruitment: so people can apply, leave, come back, invite new friends, etc.
Each Noble has a commander aura: commander auras can be chosen Here. You start at rank 0 and grant benifits to all minions based on your current rank. Wins increase your rank 1...losses decrease your rank 2.
Each noble will build a minion to begin: Any ECL 1 race from the monster manual with a generic warrior or expert from SRD or any stock CR 1/2 monster (but with Max HP for 1st HD).
Sources are restricted and must be unlocked: All characters start with having access to only the Monster Manual I, but can unlock any other book as they gain reputation.
The minions will battle eachother 1 on 1 to the death. Dead minions are dead. You can ressurect them with 1000 gold and a level loss, or simply find a new minion to fight for you. All equipment on dead minions go to the victor!
Each win grants XP and gold that the noble steal for his own purposes: The minion can get the XP with hopes of leveling up or the Noble can steal it and use the XP to create a new minion or use the XP to unlock new books so that his existing minions have new options.
The Duke's Druid can reincarnate your minions: Tired of the 3rd level goblin? Reincarnate him at will to any other creature that has the same ECL for a price.
Nobles Will Post Thier Own Challenges and Negotiate thier own Terms: Use the challenges area to post a challenge and wait for takers. Just remember to clean up after yourself.
If Both Combatants Die During Your Turn, You Win: This counts for AoE or attacking at 0hp.
