Helpline / tax bug???

« on: July 26, 2014, 05:22:32 PM »

Not sure if this is a bug or something intentional since the updates but Sallowtown and I know many other regions in Dwilight have had significant tax drops. I had an investment in Sallowtown last week and even now that it has lowered production is still over 90%.

On the politics page for tax and estates it says that the region should bring in just over 960 gold in tax income. This weeks taxes were 555 gold and that is after an investment.

Can someone explain what is going on that a city can no longer support its knights and lord let alone pay to purchase food?

I can't keep up. I've stopped reading all messages unless I'm personally addressed, even then you might want to use some fancy colored paper.

what about making it less difficult to leave a federation? so using this instance if Strombran were to leave the Federation the other 50 realms wouldn't automatically be at war with them but could decide to be at war or neutral?

holy messages batman! I've been on since the beginning and can barely keep up. Everytime I go to look at another character there's more messages!

... not that its' a bad thing. I don't think I've ever seen this much activity on BM!

Being the one that made the federation, along with Suville's King, I must say both of us think that this is far from the end of the war.

I do as well. For instance if you have a new region that is in need of repairs you could set that region to 0% and let the Lord take all of the income (which usually isn't much) while taxing others higher.

No, that's what infiltrators are for.

Helpline / Question about realms affected by ice/monsters

« on: May 06, 2014, 03:53:21 PM »

Can they use other regions as capitals, say perhaps they were able to get a townsland, could that be used as a capital so that they can refit or does it have to be a city/stronghold?

A haircut is a purely superficial issue, so the metaphor doesn't carry over. We're talking about the health of the game, not it's personal styling decisions.

But yeah, I do get the logic of it: measure twice, cut once, and all.

And this is just a game.

I've gone through and read every single post in this thread. I must say I can understand why some people would be down and whatnot but think of it this way. Wherever you now live, if there was a major disaster what would you do? Would you just sit there and basically wither away or would you move out and try to rebuild?

I don't really have a "main" character but I had contingencies for if something happened to any of my characters. Most of it involved fighting to the bitter end and trying to gain a foothold elsewhere but come on.

What would you do when your main character gets to old to play? when you only get a few hours per turn and it takes a week to move from region to region? Will you quit then? If so weather you leave now or later doesn't really matter imho.

Atamara / Re: Most Roleplay-Heavy Realm in Atamara?

« on: February 17, 2014, 03:52:01 AM »

Strombran is not what most would consider RP heavy. You won't read a lot of RP's and stories but you will find that if you send someone a letter it gets answered. Personally, I like conversations more than stories but that's just me.
