Hello all,

I am currently playing in the Kingmaker campaign setting (Book 5), and was given the job of keeping track of the cities the group wants to build (I got the job, because I have a degree in Accounting, go figure).

As time went on, I have found myself having to go through everything and adjust all the totals, because somebody recorded something wrong, or I over looked something, or the DM should have given us this value instead of that value. I finally said enough was enough and built a spreadsheet to keep track of all of it for me.

Feel free to download it for your use, my group's kingdom is entered in the worksheet for an example. (Note: You can't edit it in Google directly, you'll have to download it.)

Disclaimer: This spreadsheet keeps track of up to 10 cities / districts and connects them all to the main kingdom sheet, but doesn't keep track of BP purchases (you'll have to do that on your own). The sheets are all protected except for the cells you would need to edit, so if you need to make changes, unprotect the sheet (it's not passworded). Also I'm a player in the campaign (Book 5), so I might not have everything accurate, but I think I do at this point. Feel free to point out anything that might be wrong and I'll do what I can to adjust it.

Enjoy

I'm currently at the beginning of the "Racing to Ruin" module with my group, and the party just suffered some serious setback after getting their butts royally handed to them.

The party paladin, a follower of Sarenrae, called for a full retreat after being "forcibly helped" out of the encounter area. He then decided to kill the villains by setting the entire enclosed area on fire, and posting guards outside the known exits so they couldn't get out.

Instead of having guards show up at the inn (like he expected would happen), I had the owner of the building show up and demand restitution for the destruction he caused. The paladin refused him, suggested he get working on rebuilding it himself, and suggested he try dieting (I described the owner has built but had let himself go a little over the years) and called that "free medical advice".

Since this is not this character's first questionable action, I figured I would strip him of some/all of his paladin powers and redeem himself by sending him back to the "Souls for Smuggler's Shiv" module to finish the last area of that book (since the party couldn't figure out how to get in twice, since one of the players was not giving away information).

I'm looking for any suggestions on what might be a better solution to this situation, or if anybody has any better ideas I may have overlooked.

Please keep spoilers in the spoiler tag for me please, as one of my players is also a poster to the forum.

Thanks.
