Re: Skill to Plan and Execute a Coup
George I, the first Hannoverian King of Great Britain, ascended to the throne on the death (from natural causes) of the previous ruler. The succession was put in place 13 years prior to the death of Queen Anne (the previous monarch). How the heck is that a coup?

Re: Skill to Plan and Execute a Coup
The Hanovers came over when there were out of Stuarts who were willing to serve in James' place after the Glorious Revolution and were an acknowledgement that they were running out of fig-leafs. George I was a legal technicality to apologize for a previous coup and his reign in fact must be analyzed in reference to it.

Re: Skill to Plan and Execute a Coup
A pair of skills I havn't seen mentioned so far in this thread that strike me as fairly important (but not strategically useful however) are Detect lies and acting. Knowing who is on your side and who isn't strikes me as very useful skills when it comes to surviving long enough to carry out a coup.
