I play it based on my regent. I'm playing the regent of Rzhlev in a campaign now, and I don't plan on taxing my church because the priest of the land is my vassal, so I get regency and gold from him anyways.
My general rule is, if they are of a different faith than I, I tax to the full extent of my power. If they are of the same faith, I don't tax and consider that my donations to the church.Explain how this is a signature, its not my handwriting.

Hmmmmmm......One must be careful when it comes to the church,regardless to whom it may belong.One would be handicapping himself if he(or she as the case may be) just allowed ANY power to operate within his domain without making sure some kind of deal,whether it be GB's,defense,access to Realm Spells,etc.

I would have to say that in most of the realms I play in I tax the church if it is not the state religion. Usually the church tends to try to make it self needed by the regent and give help anyhow.

Yes I seem to recall that you have adapted the religions of Earth into your Birthright campaign. Why only two of them?

I'm basing it on the start of the Reformation period. There was largely only one recognized by the state until Martin Luther and Erastus.
Plus the central powers of faith allow for a better push over of arrogant regents. They seek to play the regents off on each other, because the church is in control without an emporer. ;)Servant of the Most High,

And what about non-recognized religions? Do they exist as cults or not at all?
