So, please, explain it to me as I lost a bit myself. We are going to spawn all with the same level of prestige... or do we pick our standing, or something else...?

I will have to handpick three or four lucky noble houses whose one member will be granted title of count. Rest will be either knights, Edlers, Burgraves, etc. I would love to have barons, but I don't know the German equivalent of the title. I'm probably going to toss a dice and see who gets lucky haha that seems fair to me.
