Stop trying to apply logic to the Mad Queen's laws.

This. If she's too annoying we'll get rid of her learn not to piss her off.

[Taricus]

Mind you, this is medieval law

And like shootandrun said, just off the queen if you don't like it, no penalties for murdering her.

@Nuke: Shit, knew i was forgetting something (will roll for paintings when i get off work (or during if i get some damn downtime))

Tari: you're right, my bad on the taxes, 7*.15*2 *cough*

Re: XP system - Logistically? No. It'd end up complicating the battle structure more than it already is (that one battle took me an hour to learn the rules, and i'm pretty sure i still did it wrong)

The upgrade system we have needs more fleshy content, and the costs involved in training units are a lot less painful for everyone now that land gives more ducats. I would rather add to and balance the systems we have in place rather than create new ones.

Except research...thats getting done damnit - cause its required. Otherwise what else does a king have to do with their coins? You can only recruit so much.

EDIT: If anyone needs me, i'm usually in the googledoc for the goods list while at work, so if you view it - you can chat

Actually, a flat XP gain wouldn't be hard to add on top, but the bonuses might be...

[filiusenox]

Mind you, this is Renaissance law.

Fixed it for you.

[CyberGenesis]

Its the combat part that would get hard...theres a few ways i ca think of to add it and make it still usable, but they're just logistically a nightmare to keep track of without some epic automation. Combat is good as it is, the upgrade system works fine - we just need more upgrades to add different kinds of modfiers to battles. All we really have now is the scout/ambush mods


Also you're ignoring my letter to you Tari, you ass T.T

[Elfeater]

Sorry for lack of body in my last post,
 I was in a hurry.

[Taricus]

Well, make every military leader keep a track of XP.

And I'll get to the letter, don't worry >.>

EDIT: Done with the Letter RP. Blame the postal service for getting it lost

[CyberGenesis]

I have a simpler idea, involves 'leadership' for the units

Spoiler: XP system alternative (click to show/hide)

Promotion of a unit within a regiment to a leadership position opens up access for that unit to slot in specific bonuses to the regiment itself (usually bonuses to the upgrades the regiment has)
Upgrade: Leadership 1d, .5d/yr upkeep

An Archery Regiment with a Leader slotted for Field Medic
-RtD to prevent the unit from perishing at the end of battle, success removes unit till the end of combat (unusable in remaining rounds of fight)
vs
An Archery Regiment with a Leader slotted for Defender
-Unit doesnt make offensive rolls, double bonus applied in defense

etc etc

@Nuke: You should fear me - i pulled the math for your skill:ducat gains out of my ass in like 20 minutes
@Tari: Should the queen host some sort of big event, Shinala may need to show up

To anyone else: We missing anything for spring? If not i'm all for the summer *tallies wealth*

[Taricus]

I like CG's XP system. Count me in on it.

EDIT: No particularly interesting matches at the arena kinda dulled the options there

[CyberGenesis]

Alright... don't suppose someone could chuck the new combat + trade rules on the wiki? I would but don't know where they are and don't fancy going back 50 pages through OOC if somebody else has a good idea where they are.

Trade rules didnt really change, but i can add the NPC traders part if needed
Combat rules didnt change, but i need Iituem to get back to me on what the actual rules are...otherwise we're making shit up around here

Im pretty sure the rules are simple: d6 vs d6 plus modifers plus str totals for each side

@Tari: Host one smartass, its YOUR KINGDOM

[Taricus]

Pretty much. Tactics either reduce what units are there or change the aftermath...

EDIT: Wait until autumn then. Queens birthday is there.

[Terenos]

*sigh* Look, I'll cobble up something on a tech tree. And work that out. But damnit I will not be happy about it.
Or actually I will. I like working with tech trees. Tech trees are to me what trade systems are to Cyber.

[CyberGenesis]

Tari, we forgot something else too
"Any Market Allowance left over at the end of a season will be taxed at half the normal sales tax rate automatically."

Spoiler: Missing parts (click to show/hide)

My totals:
7*.1*2 = 1.4 off NPC guild
.2 additional unclaimed taxes
1.6 Sales Tax
+ .5d NPC traders(1 hold * 5 movement * .1 income)
2.1 total gains

Additions to you: .36 added to ligoria for unclaimed market potential +.1 from SCTG NPC Trader

Terenos and I are trying to come up with some things, stay tuned!

[Taricus]

.15 taxes, not .1

EDIt, which results in 3.06 Ducats.
