Rule Suggestions and Clarifications

[BCLG100]

This thread is for all rule suggestions & resulting discussions plus any questions or clarification requests for existing rules in the RPG.

 

[BCLG100]

how about the law which only allows to be paid for one job be scrapped this is very unfair if you are doing 2 big jobs and not being paid the full wage for both of them

also how about the law which means that unless said otherwise any person is allowed to use say or do anything without the owners consent such as copyrighting

 

[disorganizer]

? i didnt understand your last sentence ?

anyways:
maybe selling things across provincial borders should add 10% to the price payed per border crossed. the money will go to the black hole.

reason: cross provincial trade costs more. those transportation cost are booked on the receiver of the good to simplify the pricelists of the shops. this will also encourage people to open branch offices in the provinces.

we could also have a fixed gold prive per province, but that will prevent cheap items from being sold cross-border.

 

[BCLG100]

well for instance i hope you dont mind me using your pub as an example anyone could start a new thread up selling exactely the same thing but for half the price and thus cutting off your income but if it was copyrighted and that person tried to do that then they would be sued and you end up with some more money

 

[disorganizer]

well, in fact i would sue him for it anyways, as i have a good lawyer under contract

There doesn't seem to be a place where one can ask for a rules clarification on any given subject in the RPG. Most of the rules threads are closed and for Mod use only. So I've opened this thread for anyone besides me that has a question about any rules in the RPG or needs a specific clarification of a rule.

I believe it would be best to make this thread sticky

 

[Cyc]

I posted a request for a rules clarification in the Acrorama thread about material supplier transactions, but I doubt that was the appropriate place to post it. So I'll repost it here:

I need clarification on the rules of raw goods supplier/manufacturer percentages and how they related to sale prices. It seems BLM income is varying too much and doesn't seem to adhere to the rules governing transactions. My concern lies with Acroama Homes sales. While you're at it, please clarify how BLM can sell to a private owner/individual. Thank you.

EDIT: I guess the reason I'm asking is because I was re-reading this post and looking at Donsig's recent posting for Acroama Homes in the BOF/FRA.

Cyc.... Their is a RPG Questions and Answeres thread probley buried underneath everything..

 

[Cyc]

I thought I remembered one like that, but when I started digging, I couldn't find it. That's why we need to make this sticky. It's for the RPG vets and newbies alike.

Since my own thread seems to have nearly ignored except for BCLG, here's my question/suggestion/clarification request about the Combat RPG rules.

"Shouldn't Military leaders, and retired leaders get "perks" too?

I realize the Military Leader get's a fighting bonus, but shouldn't the Military leader possibly get troops at a cheaper cost, or even immunity to losing troops to Bribing? (I realize BOTH of these might be a little over powering but what about one or the other?)

Also what about Deputies and Retired Leaders? do they keep the same benefits? Lose them all? or Get a "downgrade"?'

 

[BCLG100]

yes but i think that copyrighting it would be cheaper

 

[Shaitan]

There are several outstanding rule discussion threads. Instead of opening a new one, please just bump up one of the old ones.

 

[BCLG100]

yes but that is why i requested this one to be stickey so new ones didnt have to be started everytime so shaitan can you add them to the rules or give me access to the rules so i can edit them

 

[gonzo_for_civ]

I propose the Item manager salary be raised to 50g. The reason is that it is MUCH harder than price manager and it's the only way people are going to want to stick with it. Perhaps 60g would be in line. And in case you're wondering I'm not running for price manager since octavian's retired, so this isn't an attempt to raise a future salary

 

[disorganizer]

nope gonzo. the salaries for the positons are based on elected/appointed/leader status.
no special payment for any job.
if we start that, i think the payment for mayors should also be raised to 60 gold if they maintain a thread with the necessary info...
also war-participants should receive a extra payment... veterans should... the members of groups should... jedies should... you see to what this would lead?

the only thing you could do is find a private sponsor.

 

[disorganizer]

deputies should get no benefit. as they have no departmental "units" behind them.
also retired people. those points come from actively being able to use units of a department to help themselves.

 

[Shaitan]

I have merged BCLG100's rules suggestion thread and Cyc's rules clarification thread and put the stickitude to it.

 

[Cyc]

Thank you Shaitan.

 

[Falcon02]

However, Dis, a retired Military General still holds the respect and loyalty of his troops, and therefore could still get a Combat bonus.

 

[disorganizer]

propably. we could also add another rule:
the military leader gets 1 point per term of service added to his general warfare main-skill and 1 point to a warfare subskill of his choice per term.

the military deputy only gets 1 point to a warfare subskill of his choice.

sounds much better to me and will have a even higher effect on things.
