Well obviously. About the laws though I was thinking IC, not as in rules per say. although if we hardrule it that you either have a business or land then its still ok with me.

[Taricus]

Does it involve you using a corpse to beat the crap out of  that fop Trubaldsome Troubledson?

No, More abusing the a noble can only hold land OR a business.

[filiusenox]

What, having an NPC or a PC own a business, while you give it a monoply and in return it gives you 50percent?

[Taricus]

Nah, that's within the rules. Rather, using an NPC of a close connection (That you didn't make, create or have total creative control over) as the business manager.

[filiusenox]

Then the NPC would get the money.

[Taricus]

Unless they were a spouce...

[filiusenox]

Hurmm...good point. That may work...but you wouldn't be able to marry the person without nobility transfering over. So most likely a mistress.

[CyberGenesis]

The problem with that contest is that the only things needed to be rolled were interactions with Thring - the sale price was already set

[Taricus]

Hurmm...good point. That may work...but you wouldn't be able to marry the person without nobility transfering over. So most likely a mistress.

Well, they would be a noble. An unlanded noble though...

[Ardas]

I think the current separation works for the best.
Nobles dabbling in business is most likely to be an 18th century thing, while trade companies owning land and so on would only apply to overseas colonies. Mind you, i'm just citing history, not actual rules.

So yeah. Keep them separate. But if you got the ear of the prince or a poweful lover, you don't need to control anything yourself, just nudge them in the direction you want.

Since I don't see anyone else in need of a roll that I can do, I guess I'm just making Corv's right now. I dunno.

[filiusenox]

Don't expect King Erik to be that ear.
Kain will eithier kill you or have a good, long talk with Erik about serpenttoungued merchants.

Or rally the populace to be more anti-trader and pro-worker. Atleast in Lonemine.

[thatkid]

I kind of want some unscrupulous individual to force Erik to abdicate. Just so he can live the plight of the toiling masses, and upon regaining the throne institute a form of socialism.

[Taricus]

Well, technically we can act the whole thing out

[Jormundur]

If you want to do mine I'm just attempting to establish the first town for Corv in the Weylands and I'm using 2 of the regiments to do it.
