Raz - it looks like these numbers do not include the city improvements for turn 37 that I put forward for discussion on the discussion page. Not ahving heard any objections, I would like to build the following:
Build an Office of the City Guard (F2) and a Fletcher (E2) in Shrikeport, which will fill the district.
Build a city wall in Tatzleford, on the North edge of town, to continue the process of fortifying there.
Those will increase Economy and Loyalty by 1 each and Stability by 2.

Let's stick with the build as stated above.
Build an Office of the City Guard (F2) and a Fletcher (E2) in Shrikeport, which will fill the district.Build a city wall in Tatzleford, on the North edge of town, to continue the process of fortifying there.
Revision is to add Office of City Guard and Fletcher to Shrikeport, and City Wall (north) to Tatzlford.

Claim Hexes b1, B1, B2, B3 (Cost 4 BP)
Build roads through all 4 (cost 5 BP - 3 for plains and 2 for the forest)Farm B1 and B2 (cost 4 BP)
That puts the general fund at 75 BP
Transfer 10 BP to the Freemarch Fund
Transfer 5 BP to the Reserve Fund
That gives Tavius 20 BP availble for construction if he wants to build improvements in Freemarch.
Discussion of improvements for other cities coming soon.
Here are my thoughts for city improvements for turn 38
In shrikeport, start preparing the ground for a new district. (cost 2 BP, time 1 month)
In Tatzleford, continue work on the City Wall (cost 8 BP) and build some more housing (3 BP)
In Varnhold, build a brothel, to provide the citizens with some entertainment, and also complete our internal security network. (cost 6 BP)
In Leveton, Start building a city wall (cost 8 BP) and build a theater, which will benefit both economy and stability, and give us discounts on additional buildings in the future. We can build up Leveton as a cultural center to complement Shrikeport's mercantile reputation. (cost 24 BP)
I also think we could start training up the new Army Tavius mentioned. What did you have in mind?
Oswaldt, please conform these numbers:
Start of Turn 38
Total Treasury = 117 BP; Econ +105; Loyalrty +88; Stability +91
Stability Check +1 BP
Hexes Claimed -4 BP
Roads Built -5 BP
Gross Treasury = 105 BP
From your posts I assume:
Kingdom Reserve = 25 BP
Freemarch Building Fund = 20 BP
Kingdom Net Treasury = 60 BP
Greenmarch Turn 38
On Improvements:
1 Which way do you wish to expand Shrikeport, east, west, or north. Expanding east or west will allow more Pier/Waterfront development. Expanding 3 city districts in either east or west directions will bring another water boundary in place.
2) You may want to consider a bridge in Varnhold so the people will feel less rural.
3) The new army could be stationed in Freemarch with the current army in Shrikeport. In the future you might consider additional small armies out of both Varnhold and Leveton, possibly as reserves. You may want to enhance the existing army as well.
Oswaldt, please conform these numbers:

[b
I have Econ +106. I believe that last group of roads put us over.
As far as army design and depolyment is concerned, I think the General should weigh in.
I'd like to expand shrikeport to the East for more waterfront development and to allow the construction of a jail adjacent to the office of the city guard.
I have no objection to a bridge in Freemarch. would that be 1 BP, the same cost as a road through the hex? While we're doing taht, can we do the same for Varnhold, so people don't have to slog across a ford to get downtown?
as for the other buildings I proposed, here is what I was thinking for locations:
For Tatzleford, build tha house at C2 and the Wall on the east side.
For Leveton, build the theater at C9 and D9 and the first section of city wall to the north, so we can control traffic down the main road.
For Varnhold, put the Brothel at A2, next door to the brewery.
Haven't had a chance to really look at Freemarch yet but the first thing Tavius would like to do is remove the Tenaments in favor of houses.
I don't have my river kingdoms guide handy but I was thinking that Freemarch could be the military center so a war college or the like would be good.
As far as the army unit is concerned I was thinking something fast like maybe a company of cavalry to support our foot troops.
What is our current unit composed of?
Current unit is Medium unit of Mounted Human Warrior 4 (total CR 3)
We could take that unit and either make it bigger or add levels to the troops, and the make some foot soldiers to back them up.
OK, lets do some foot soldiers then. Maybe a CR2 or CR3 group would make it a decent size?
A bridge in Varnhold will cost 1 BP. There is no need for a bridge in Freemarch unless you want to cross the Lone River for some reason. You can build a bridge in B3 for 1 BP, which would help in expanding into the forest.
Building a new city district in Shrikeport will cost [edit: 2] BP to prepare. Building can start next turn.
A bridge in Varnhold will cost 1 BP. There is no need for a bridge in Freemarch unless you want to cross the Lone River for some reason. You can build a bridge in B3 for 1 BP, which would help in expanding into the forest.
Duh.
I read your previous message as suggesting a bridge in Freemarch.Strike that. Let's just build the one in Varnhold.
OK, lets do some foot soldiers then. Maybe a CR2 or CR3 group would make it a decent size?
I'm leaning toward either one bigger army, or small (CR1) units in each settlement to man the defenses.
Of course, cost is an issue, but our income is pretty strong.
As a side note the Consumption of an army will double in the month that the army is engaged in warfare.
As a side note the Consumption of an army will double in the month that the army is engaged in warfare.
Noted. I don't recall seeing anything about that in the River Nations book though. Are you sure?
After reviewing what you are paying in consumption per month (6 BP/month) for this army now, my rational for the double during war is not so rational. Nevermind.
Where did we leave off? Are there outstanding decisions to be made here?
So far in Turn 38 you have claimed hexes, established/improved cities, built roads (including a bridge in Varnhold), and developed open areas.
Treasury = 92 BP; Econ +106; Loyalty +88; Stability +92
You have yet to decide on what army to build.
OK. We were looking for a CR3 army of foot soldiers, so Human Warrior 3 is CR1. Large Army of CR1 is CR 3.
Start building Large Army of Human Warrior 3.
That gives us 200 troops we can divide up if we need to.
Did you want mounts with that?
The Kingdom creates a Large Army of Human Warrior 3 (200 foot soldiers), CR 3, consumption/month 4 BP. It costs 4 BP this month to assemble the army and get it trained. Next month the new army will increase the kingdom consumption to 4 BP/turn.
The first army (medium army of mounted human warrior 4) is called the Greanmarch Regulars. What is the name of the new army. If you want to split the large army into 2 medium armies, each army is CR1, but the total consumption will stay the same.
Please designate a leader for Army 2.
Kingdom Stats at Present: Treasury 88 BP; Econ +106; Stab +88; Loyal +92; Consumption 0 BP this turn, 4 BP next turn
Phase 3, Step 3 - Sell Valuable Items

I don't think you have our turn 38 city improvements in those numbers.
I show
Economy 109 (the theater added 2 and the brothel 1)
Loyalty 90 (2 loyalty for the brothel)
Stability 93 (2 stability for the theater)
and you appear to have Loyalty and stability crossed.
Treasury after all the spending for turn 38 is 49, with 4 in the general fund, 25 in the reserve, and 20 in the Freemarch fund.

Consider it done. 3 tenements upgraded to houses costs 6 BP, dropping the Freemarch fund to 14.

City Improvements:
I was thinking about opening the second district in Shrikeport with a pier.
Now that we have the theater, we can build out Leveton some more, with a new brothel, a park and a tavern. We'll have to put in a house for that.
We need to finish the Tatzleford city wall.

I see it. According to my records, there is no watchtower in Shrikeport. (yet)
Ah, yes. I'll correct.
Great. So that brings us pback to city improvements for turn 39. My proposal was:
Leveton: Brothel
Leveton: Park
Leveton: Tavern
Leveton: House
Tatzleford: City Wall
Shrikeport: Piers
that would cost 31 BP.
We would have enough left to transfer a little to the Freemarch fund. There is currently a balance of 14 BP in the fund after improving tenements. do we want to build anything there, or save up for something bigger?
If this seems to be the order of the day, please provide location for buildings.

Transfer 10 more BP to the Freemarch fund.
In response to Eirwulf - I thought you had expressed interest in occupying and managing the fort. feel free to do so. Just remember that your duties as a leader of the kingdom require you to be in the capital periodically.

that was 7. 3 at 12 each and 4 at 6.
