They have a fort in my land giving them a safe base I think thats support enough .

As long as they have enough land around it to feed themselves, that's fine.

[mesor]

Uhhm you know your producing enough food for 72000 people right?

They dont thats why I need to know if he's my ally and will fight with me and ill provide food or if were neutral and he's providing he's own food.

If they're not your allies in the first place, then why give them the fort in the first place? I'm pretty sure that giving them a fortress with no means of supporting itself could easily be viewed as an insult in the Middle Ages.

1 500 population:
------[Food]------
->100 plant gatherers
->100 fishermen (in the little mountain rivers and ponds)
->100 hunters
------[War]-------
1000 Trained soldiers:
-> 400 Archers
-> 500 (Nagitana's? Naginatano?) (wo)men with naginata's
-> 100 Longswordsmen
------[Religon]----

------[State]------
-> 30 scribes
-> 10 Tax colletors
-> 10 people of justice (judges,.....)

(Look at those small numbers, it's just depressing)

[GreatWyrmGold]

Unless I'm mistaken, you only had a single city, not a whole fief.

[mesor]

Not really the guild chose to accept the fort its up to them to find the means of supporting themselves in it.
But its down to him anyway.
If he wants to be allies then he supports me in battle and ill import ford for him along with my own at a lower price.
If he wants to rent he can import or he's own or pay me and ill import it for him.

550 crafters

[mesor]

Nice.
You have food I have raw materials for crafting .

[GreatWyrmGold]

Also, this being the medieval era, most women will be housekeepers. You can have women work, but if less than, say, half of households have someone with enough time to take care of chores you're risking revolts, so the men will probably be most of the workers. I would have mentioned a caveat like this before, but I hadn't realised it until now. If you can't keep house, you won't be happy...
I have a feeling revolts will be a big thing at first...

I guess it is pointed at me?

Well, i did write farming-related stuff, but I guess you are right

You mean me?
Yes, i know.

You were lamenting your low population, and I pointed out that that was due to your own choice.

I believe everyone has replied, so I'm going to assume everything is OK with everyone. I'll start the maps ASAP.

[Zrk2]

Great.

[ansontan2000]

I believe that the guild should be impartial to any one party. After all, if one of our allies had to go to war, that would probably lead to something like a de-knighting of all knights in opposing kingdoms. Therefor, I would like to ask the GM if the guild of knights could receive a piece of land in the center of the major cluster of houses, with enough serfs to feed itself.
