    Salary of Lieutenants and Court

    As I really enjoy economic strategy games, I have found that the best ones
    are those where you struggle against scarcity, yet are forced to compete in
    a realm of consumption, are the best. BR produces boat-loads of cash of
    which is neccesary to spend very little.

    I think regents should normally break even. That saving money should
    require discipline, and that any considerable action should require spending
    savings. War should be possible only with borrowing, for it can triple the
    cost of government.

    I think Gary Foss is right that standard D&D economics and BR figures are
    way out of wack, but rather than quintoupling the value of a GB, I would
    rather multiply the cost of actions in BR by 5. Seeing a player sit on his
    hands for a turn to save some money would be a pefectly reasonable action.

    The only resource that seems really limiting in the BR domain system is
    time.

    In my experience that is only the case with large domains that are not
    really threatened by any side. Small countries of 3 or 4 provinces
    always lack money and rp to do what is best. Even some of the more
    stable countries can have financial problems, because of threatening
    neighbors, like the Gorgon's Crown or the Magian. These countries need
    huge armies to be on the save side.
