Paused nobles still have estates?

[Bael]

I remember that there was a topic where one could report bugs for the new estate system, but I have not found it in my brief search for it. I believe this have already been reported, but is anything being done about it? Eg in Celtiberia, Dwilight, a paused Character Arthoor still has an estate that supports the region.

The lord can kick him out.

[JPierreD]

I'm pretty sure that if he is not kicked he gets the income in bonds, who in turn are sent back to the realm. So it is profitable at a realm level to keep the paused nobles, given the added efficiency. A small exploit, perhaps.

[Zakilevo]

huh! you call that small!  :o

[^ban^]

who in turn are sent back to the realm

Nope.

[JPierreD]

Nope.

Hmm.. wonder what are those "other sources" then. I thought I had seen a pattern with paused knights and booting them with diminishing and increasing of the King's extra income.

When a character first pauses, their bonds are given back the the realm. Subsequent tax periods that provide them bonds are not returned to the realm.

[Velax]

So those bonds just disappear then? I assume they don't accumulate for the noble when he unpauses.

[Eithad]

I am pretty sure I have unpaused with bonds before. How I got those bonds I don't know.

If that paused noble is not part of the realm religion, ask the priest to burn his estate and hang him up on the tree!  8)
