(quick question: I'd like another turn before getting troops, however since there is no restriction to fighting each other now, if I were to remain defenceless, could anyone just attack me and win, and if so, what happens to me? The answer will likely affect my turn )
Hopefully, I've got the calcs right. If I've been reading it right, we get our resources post pop-growth.
Also made an assumption that as I've just joined and wasn't tasked with the tithe at the start, that I also did not get the crown for not fighting.

Considering the incentive not to fight internally you don't have to worry about enemies in the empire.

The Red Baron increases his archer army by 66% and marches on another Northern Baron outside the Empire. As before he came across as larger force of 7 this time 6 light inf and 1 archer. Less casualties were taken(-1.65 troops to reinforcements). 750 pop captured(658P/47Y/20K/25N)
Results:-1.65 troops, +658 peasants, +47 yeomen, +20 knights, +25 nobles

((I think I mathed wrong last turn, should've ended up with 0.43 food))

Time to solve this Food problem before we all starve.

The Crossbowmen and the Heavy Infantry will go raid some independent Baron for food, meanwhile, 20 Yeomen are demoted to peasants.

Finally,  a tithe in Troops is paid.

Everyone in the empire received a crown from the Emperor, King Jim has decided to stop his conquest at the Duchy next door. The emperor has stated that you can change your tithe, 3 more turns of tithing. Due to internal peace trade routes in the empire are starting to open.
Current trade:
1 food for 0.8 gold(4 available)
1 gold for 1.5 food(2 available)This took awhile because of all the battles and I have been busy. If your not going to do your own tallying(which is fine) can I please request that you put the total pop(it is after all supposed to be there). Can you please put your location in the notes(if I have given you one), every but NG(who is in the south) and MM(who is unknown right now) is in the north. Also the market is a new thing that will be constant and will be influenced by the internal stability of the empire.
Any questions or mistakes please ask or point them out.

Edit: Also please let me know what(if anything) you will be tallying, this is for those that just have one number for each item.

Klaus will buy 4 Food for 3.2 Gold, then hire another unit of Crossbowmen and another unit of Heavy Infantry before sending the whole army to conquer that independent Baron.

Finally, we will pay a tithe of Troops.

I'm willing to sell food for crowns. 1 crown = .9 food, up to 4 crowns for 3.6 food.

Also, question: 1 heavy infantry costs just over 3 times that of light infantry. Compared to heavy cav which is just less than double of light cav. Is there anything specifically that makes heavy infantry that much better than light infantry compared to the cav dynamic?

Also, question: 1 heavy infantry costs just over 3 times that of light infantry. Compared to heavy cav which is just less than double of light cav. Is there anything specifically that makes heavy infantry that much better than light infantry compared to the cav dynamic?

The speed difference, heavy inf has half the speed of light inf where as heavy cav have 2/3 of the speed of light cav.
I'll be honest the combat mechanic is not as good as it could be(case in point the first battle of the game took me 1 hour to compile). I am slowly working on it. If anyone has an recommendations to improve/change I will take them.

Also I am pleased to see a bit more player interaction, though I am surprised it took Bay12ers this long.

[Maxinum McDreich]

That makes less sense that hvy infantry costs 3 times that of light infantry moving at half speed compared to hvy cav being 2 times over light cav but still being 2/3 as a fast.

I don't really know the combat mechanics behind the scenes to really suggest anything. But I'm having a go at a revamp (for fun) that I can send to you if you'd like for inspiration, once it's done.

Meantime, I'll buy a couple of units not used for playtesting purposes. So, time for my turn:

Raise 2 L Infantry, 2 Crossbowmen
Attack Neighboring (or closes) non-empire Barony
