We fabricate fake evidence against the Senex to have him replaced.

Do I smell a revolution?

What is the legal precedence on killing a Tower?

Murder is murder, although noble murders get investigated a lot more than slaves killing each other, or even plebs.  Murder = death penalty, sometimes death penalty by being worked to death in the mines.  An arrested Tower would sit in prison until a trial or execution date, though [can send a representative to speak for you while in prison, cannot vote].

How does export/import work? Do we have to choose whether to import or export?

[Iituem]

Ah, sorry.  I should clarify.  "Int. Price" means the internal, domestic price.  I originally wrote 'domestic', but it was too long for the cell.

The city satisfies domestic demands first; the Grain, Tools, Goods and Luxury demands it has by virtue of population.  The derived demands of Iron and Raw Materials are satisfied first.  If domestic prices are cheaper (and they usually are), it will buy domestic over foreign goods to satisfy those needs.  If international market prices are cheaper (e.g. raw materials) Ragona buys those preferentially.  If, after the initial purchase, there is still demand, the rest of the demand is satisfied by the other market.

Imports don't so much concern Towers, except where they feed their industries (i.e. Iron, Raws availability).  Again, the cheaper option will always be bought first.

Whatever wares are left over after domestic needs are satisfied are sold to the international market.  They are bought at market prices, and you get what they sell for, minus shipping costs, minus tariffs.

And then most industries get a flat 10% income tax on top of their profits.

Adjusted public doc to display how much shipping is available.

Sorry about the turn delay, folks.  Lots of things happening, and I'm making some adjustments to make it easier in future to do turns.

[Hiddenleafguy]

Oh, children? The only child I feel sorry for are the ones that aren't on the bottom row, and thus cannot see tower Stonetree's remains, I guess the poison food I gave him is null and void now.

[Sheb]

So.... you just admitted guilt to a capital crime? :p

[Iituem]

Fortunately, all of this takes place in some weird hyper-dimension, imperceptible to the people we puppet.  Puppet, like strange extra-dimensional creatures, our feelers twisting and rooting inside their minds, controlling their actions, their words, their very thoughts.  Unaware they remain of their masters, but dance they must to our strings.  And suffer.

Suffer.

HLG admits a lot of dubious things.

I don't accept such bribes, I merely deal them.

It seems there is another spy.......

I may or may not have killed the chief of coin. Don't look at me like that, it makes me reassess my moral values!

[Sheb]

True, but here we have a good opportunity to investigate. I'm just upset that I don't get to enjoy my own criminal investigation subplot.

[Ghazkull]

Ah well, due to dealings with him i already know that it is him that killed me. The question is how to best prove it to the centuria and the council.

[Sheb]

Which isn't nearly as fun. I guess short of night actions to track the assassins there ain't much we can do. Of course, you could also decide to take justice into your own hands if he hasn't rebuild his guard yet.

[notquitethere]

Surely scouring the criminal underworld for recently enriched assassins is why we all have agents, no?

[Sheb]

Or to hire said assassins. :p
