Kingdom Development

This is a thread for me to track the process of your kingdom-building/handling as time passes. I'll be posting things in the format and shorthand I use for my notes, so some of it will presumably be opaque or confusing, but other parts should be clearer. That'll probably put you as players in the same position as your PCs, where you're learning more and more about kingdom management over time, but certain things are still uncertain and will be grasped better in the future.

* Income phase: When PCs make Economy check to generate income, they get 1 BP less. They themselves don’t realize it, but a week later, Oleg comes to them and says that he’s discovered close to 4,000 gp missing from the money they’ve collected and been spending. He’s not sure where it went but is trying to find out. Is VERY apologetic and offers to make up the amount on his own, but asks for a few days to do so, since he doesn’t have that kind of cash at hand and will have to call in a few favors. (PCs don’t take the money from him, so he thanks them and works extra hard, effectively boosting their economy by +1 for a month).

Event Phase:
* Event: Outstanding Success – Flavor: House Orien sends a small group to discuss setting up an outpost in Khatovar. Led by a middle-aged woman called Aluna d’Orien. Discusses details with PCs and hopes to sign a contract, either offering a financial payment (equal to 4 BP) right now or to have her House construct an Orien road connecting Oleg’s Trading Post to the capital city (i.e. builds a road through six squares, but PCs only gain benefits as they take each square, so it’ll take 6 months to get all of it – but it’s equal to 6 BP). Whatever choice PCs make, it provides +4 on Economy checks till next Event phase. Reduce Unrest by 2. Result: PCs take long-term route.
