My BR game is small, me DM, and my friend regent of Tournen. The game is
mostly strategic but there's some role-playing when i throw in some internal
plot with his advisors and other close npc's. He is a Rogue and controls 90%
of the guilds and several trade routes in Tournen. He has recently fallen for
a trap i devised. Alamie talked him into attacking into the 5 peaks in a joint
mission to liberate and split the land to expand both domains. However, Alamie
never planned to follow thru and has attacked into Tournen while the bulk of
Tournen's forces are in the 5 peaks. Guilder Kalien of Endier discovered this
and sold the info to Tournen for 15GB. He raced back home to barely arrive in
time to meet the Alamie forces at the border. Now being weakened by fighting
in the 5 peaks, he doesnt stand a chance to defend his domain. Avanil has
offered him to be a vassal and Avanil would send troops to help save the him.
Avanil asked for 1/4 Regency and Gold collected. His Bloodline is mid 20's, so
that's 6 or so regency. He collects 80 or so GB's making it 20GB tithed.
He has sent a counterproposal to Avanil saying that he'd be a vassal to Avan
if Avan helped him not only save Tournen from attack, but also help him
rejoin Alamie and Tournen into the one domain it once was! Tournen would get
power, as would Avanil in the form of increased money and regency tithed.

My question is: Is that a resonable amount. Can Avanil increase that amount
later? If Tournen refuses to pay more, does Avanil smite him down? I think so.
Does anyone think that Boeruine(sp) will be very threatened by this? Any other
Ideas on where this turn of events could go? Would Avanil help defeat Alamie?

thanks for reading my long winded post.
