Heh, yeah, complete coincidence. Nobilis hadn't even registered with me when I named the game. In fact, the first time I'd even heard about it was because the hogshead booth was next to us when I released at GenCon. Fortuneately I've since had a chance to play it a couple of times.

No the subconcious influence on my choice of names has probably more to do with Europa Universalis than anything else.

Ramshead, has zero association with Hogshead. Rather it has the completely corny etymology of being a play on my own initials R.A.M.
