To not leave poor Kalev way behind wait until tomorrow to post turn 16 proposals, but they will be good ones :)
Is one of them do nothing, to save up some BP?

Yes..to save up for one of the more major buildings....
Then in case I don't get chance to post during the day tomorrow, that suggestion gets my support.
I'm thinking that the castle would work well to bring our modifiers up, and once we get a noble villa in the capital, mansions only cost 2 more than houses whilst boosting stability.
Edit: Probably a bit late to be asking now, but what did we do with Beaky?

Completely up to you. Note I do allow Mansions to count as houses for housing requirements, one of my only Kingmaker 'House Rules' ;).
Sorry... :P
EventChance (75%)-
Will post up the event, and begin month 16 / generate both items tomorrow, off for the night...
Sorry... :P
No need to apologise, it was that house rule (Do-Ho!) that I was relying on for the suggestion. To be honest, without it I see no reason to build a mansion over a dump...

You mean other than you can find trash in either?

Wow great minds think alike.
Monthly Action Post:
Month 16 suggestions:
Strategy: Save at SwordHaven
Starting BP: 15 BP
0 BP for consumption, +1 BP for 0 unrest (hopefully), sell 2 items.
Ending BP: 16 BP + items, + Economy Roll.
Benefits: Working towards a castle. It makes sense form a RP perspective that we would build one by year 2 IMO. Our Kingdom is getting larger and will start to draw attention. If we have no defenses it would make sense for someone to invade us and just take us over. We might have a castle by round 18, the best building we can buy for 27 BP and then split our attention between SwordHaven and Northgreen. Do a Noble Villa next. We will have plenty of half price buildings then. Another pier, Mansion, etc.
Nice RP post, Malthir.
Regarding the Ring of Protection, I'd actually like that...if I drop the money, can I add it to my inventory?
Also, Kalev is a year older (something I don't think I've had happen for a character in any game I've previously played.
Very nice post and letters, Tanner. And the Building tree looks great now.
I would suggest that we move Phase 2 from Northgreen to the city we will found at the Temple of the Elk, since get half price on a Cathedral there, and consequently half price on the Academy too.
I'm fine with building nothing and saving up for the Castle for a few months, if i have not already said so.
Nice RP post, Malthir.
Regarding the Ring of Protection, I'd actually like that...if I drop the money, can I add it to my inventory?
Question for Malthir really.
75% chance
As your base value is high enough, theres a 75% chance you can find one at that price in Swordhaven anyway- which apparently you do, the dice say.
My personal goal is to get Malthir, Casimir and Kalev into middle age ;).
Minor Items Generated-
+1 Silver Spiked Gauntlet (price listed above) (please confirm Malthir, its this turn that this one comes up?)
+1 Splint Mail (1,350GP)
Let us assume I bought the original ring and that the money went into the city coffers that way.
Party items to purchase:
Out of the treasury I suggest we buy 2 items:
Wand of Cure Light Wounds %
Wand of Lesser Restoration %
If the rolls are okay this turn any objections? Would be -3000gp from the party fund well spent I think.
Malthir's BDay is Rova the 28th BTW, so he is already 21 and well on his way to 22. Cas can you confirm, we should end our 2 years of development in Lamashan 4710?
Also 1 thing to consider, what about building a Castor's tower first and then the Castle. The castors tower gives us 3 minor items and 2 medium items and +1 Econ & Loyalty. The medium items can give us 8BP's in a turn. They can be the largest fuel for income for the price. It could pay for itself in 3 turns.
From an RP perspective I see that we are approached by an old wiizard retiring from Brevoy to the country, offering to craft some items for us in exchange for land and building his home.
Either way I think we have the plan for the next two turns, to save for one of those.
Start out turn 16
Need 3 Economy checks from someone. Two for selling and 1 for how much BP's we earn this month.
A messenger arrives for the Lords of Kardas, bearing a scroll from their recently departed Grand Diplomat.
** spoiler omitted **...
Malthir like!!!!!!!
The only thing I would add is that Oleg is part of the ruling council and the Treasurer of Kardas. He is probably still owner of Oleg's so I will defer to you how he interacts with you.
Nice RP post, Malthir.

Buy it off the market so we get the cash :)
Yes, this is the turn we get the spiked gauntlet. Anyone want the splint mail? I didn't think so...sold to the highest bidder!!!!!
What if we built a Caster's Tower in Northgreen to help pay for the founding of a town at the Temple of the Elk (and money in general)? It would produce a lot of items and the plans that Ilya has for Northgreen could easily be adapted.
The thing about building it in SwordHaven is we will get to 2 districts a lot faster there in order to be able to sell multiple items such as the two medium magical items.
Don't worry, we will get to Northgreen as soon as we finish up a few things in SwordHaven :)|

The medium items can give us 8BP's in a turn. They can be the largest fuel for income for the price. It could pay for itself in 3 turns.
Please remember, only a single magical item can be sold in a district in one turn.
One magical item. Not one minor, one medium and one major.
One item.
Note that I require you to fully finish a district in order to begin a new one (i'll let you off the castle as you do plan to build it).
Long story short- one magical item sale per district per turn. And items generated in one district can't be sold in another. So casters tower won't be as big of a perk as you thought.
Makes sense. Still being able to sell 1 of two medium mgical items for 8 BP is like +40 to your economy though each turn. Definitely worth it!
Of course we still have to get to 30+ BP's so a couple of turns to go before we make the decision.
Economy check:
Everything was decided on for this month then?
Please make a stability check against your Command DC...
Economy check: 1d20+31
Casimir we actually needed 3 checks, the first two being selling the two generated items, so the spiked gauntlet is sold. Need 1 more for the other item then the BP generated to close out the month for our actions.
I will roll the stability:
The caster's tower before the castle works. I'm not sure if it makes much difference where it is built really, it doesn't give any discounts to other buildings.
Month 16 summary:
Strategy: Save at SwordHaven
Starting BP: 15 BP
0 BP for consumption, +1 BP for 0 unrest, sell 2 items successfully +1 BP.
Ending BP: 17 BP + 8 BP = 25BP.
Benefits: Working towards a castle or Caster's Tower.
Lets see what event happens in 16, but here is the summary/suggestion for turn 17, should be very straight forward since we know what we are doing until next turn.
Month 17 suggestion:

Starting BP: 25 BP
0 BP for consumption, +1 BP for 0 unrest (hopefully), sell 2 items.
Ending BP: 25 BP + items, + Economy Roll.

Check to start turn 17
Fenna, you want to go ahead and make 3 Economy checks at +31?

Only reason why I suggest SwordHaven over Northgreen is the multi-District advantage.

Month 16 Event Clarity-
Sootscales was attacked by a masked assailant towards the end of the month- a plain-looking human man who came at him with a dagger. The militia and Sootscales were able to foil the assassination and managed to kill the attacker.
Month 17 Event Roll-
75% chance...
Anyone please roll me a D6 followed by a stability check...
Month 17 Items Generated-
1 (sold from Fennas roll)- Small sized Silver +1 Light Pick (2,328GP)
2 (not sold)- +1 Longspear (2,305GP)
Month 17 Event Clarity-
A massive earthquake shakes Swordhaven, threatening to topple and destroy buildings. The government of Swordhaven reacts quickly to the threat, using a combination of magical and mundane means to ensure that the monument of Edric remains intact.
Although the earthquake is fairly localised, it also affects three other buildings- Bokken's Bottles, Swordhaven Sundries and the Lonely Hippogriff. I will need stability rolls for each building, in that order please.
OK, here it goes.
Bokken's Bottles
Swordhaven Sundries
Lonely Hippogriff
Month 18-
Item 1 (Swordhaven)- +1 Light Wooden Shield (1,153)
Item 2 (Northgreen)- (failed to sell last turn)- +1 Longspear (2305)
Month 17 summary:
Strategy: Save at SwordHaven
Starting BP: 25 BP
0 BP for consumption, +1 BP for 0 unrest, sell 1 item resulted in +1 BP.
Ending BP: 25 BP, + 1 BP unrest, +1 BP items, + 7 BP = 34BP
Benefits: Working towards a castle or Caster's Tower.
For month 18 we need to decide which way to go, Castor's Tower or a Castle in SwordHaven before we make our rolls. The Towers BP benefits are hard to overlook, we could get to the castle pretty quickly by having one.
My vote is for the tower and then possibly the Castle before we start the next stage.
Month 18 suggestion:
Strategy: Build at SwordHaven, the Wizard Aristus from Brevoy retires to our town. To retain such a valuable ally The council agrees to set aside some land and assist in buidling the Wizard a tower in the city.
Starting BP: 34 BP
0 BP for consumption, +1 BP for 0 unrest (hopefully), sell 2 items, build Castor's Tower -30 BP.
Ending BP: 3 BP + unrest bonus, + Economy Roll
Benefits: 3 minor items, 2 medium items; Economy +1, Loyalty +1.
Someone feel free to start out with the Stability roll, I don't trust my luck to hold out...but please everyone weigh in on the building for this turn, it is a pretty major decision.
One stability check, coming up:
Edit: Ok, that's it. I'm officially off rolls for a while.
I vote tower.
One stability check, coming up: 1d20+20
Edit: Ok, that's it. I'm officially off rolls for a while.
I vote tower.
Unrest increases by 2 as Kardas bends and buckles under the weight of bandits, monsters, rumours and politics.
Sootscales is able to reduce unrest to 1 at the end of the improvement phase, but you still have one unrest. This applies as a penalty on all stability, loyalty and economy rolls.
Is it worth buying a house this month? It'll get rid of the remaining unrest, and in theory that will net us an extra BP next month.

Good advice Fenna, these folk that are causing the trouble, they live on the edges of the city in tents and such. I thought sending Casimir to talk to them might do some good, but he appears to have wipped them into a frenzy. Maybe if we expanded one of the city blocks to provide housing for them it might satisfy their demands. If it doesn't I may have to deal with them myself.... :)
If we add a house to the build we will be at 1 so nothing bad happens due to that, let's hope for no major issues, it has been a rough couple of months for events. Fenna, you are good with the Caster's Tower?
Assuming so we build the Tower and a house to appease the rabble rouser's. Now -33BP.
Selling the items:
Item 1 (Swordhaven)- +1 Light Wooden Shield (1,153)
Item 2 (Northgreen)- (failed to sell last turn)- +1 Longspear (2305)
Although the rolls are looking good, I never roll the Economy roll for Income so someone feel free to roll when you check in.
"I believe all they really want is to feel they are a part of our growing community, but it is difficult to feel at home when you live in such transitory abodes.
"If we are to build a home for Aristus, the least we can do for these people is give them the support they need to build their own."
Yep, I'm behind the tower too. Though I think I'll let someone else take the economy roll given how it worked out last time.
Have we sold enough to get a BP from the donation pool yet?

I believe you've had a few BP from it clocking over now, M can confirm.
Month 18 summry:
Strategy: Build at SwordHaven, the Wizard Aristus from Brevoy retires to our town. To retain such a valuable ally the council agrees to set aside some land and assist in building the Wizard a tower in the city.
Starting BP: 34 BP
0 BP for consumption, +1 BP for 0 unrest, sell 2 items, build Castor's Tower -30 BP, build house -3 BP.
Ending BP: 1 BP, +0 BP, + Economy Roll to speed things along = 11 BP
Benefits: 3 minor items, 2 medium items; Economy +1, Loyalty +1.
The two items we sell still leave us about 400gp short from a BP this turn, let's hope for good medium items next turn to sell the best one.
Event Roll up next...
Suggest we save for Castle next to make sure we have one by turn 24. I hope the caster's tower will help us grow quicker with the additional item BP's.

Mediums are a guaranteed 8BP, none of them go into donation pool.
