Holy shit ,mssive fine!

Was expecting the usual few crowns. Hmm

[rufus sparkfire]

It's almost like it's a plot hook!

I'm interested to see what Julian does. Ragni will need calming down!

Looks like there is no way around it, you're getting audited by Middenheim's IRS.  This is boding well for adventures inside the city.


Rufus, I know you're filled up for this campaign (think i'd be too far behind anyway), but if you start a new one, i'd love to jump in. I've never played 1st Edition before, let alone over the internet.

[commandant]

there is not a lot they can do except pay the fine.

I'm interested in the way the amount goes up as you get richer.

Isb't that all tax systems ever?

Not in the 15th century.

ANd while taxes for people who were not you were fairly common [so common I am surpised that most places in the Empire don't already have a dwarf/human/elf/halfling tax depending]they tended to just be a flat rate.

Good thing the book was written in the 20th century then

Flat Tax vs Progressive Tax

Can't find anything about the legality of taxing dwarves though.

I would like you to be able to play, but I definitely can't add any more players. Sorry! But if there is a new game sometime, for sure.

[rufus sparkfire]

How much money is Julian carrying? He left some with Billy.

[Finlay]

Didn't I say? I got some of those bank notes from mortus...

No worries! Just name an NPC after me and then brutally kill hm off.

[rufus sparkfire]

Haha! There are no bank notes. I don't know if Mortus has been claiming to have them, but they don't exist.

I'll see if I can fit that in!

[Finlay]

Did Heinrich say how much he left with billy? I imagine I'd have matched it. Serves me right for not being careful with my money!

I think I didn't add some too.

[rufus sparkfire]

I don't know what anyone did with their money! You probably did say how much you left.

Just make it up now (and note it on your character sheet). I'm not bothered.

I definitely said how much I left. (Almost all of it.)

Mortus isn't claiming to have bank notes, but as a member of the merchant's guild she has banked most of her money with them and so is carry a bank note of sorts.

We did discuss this remember.   

[Mogsam]

You could take over as me?

I'm a tad busy with EoW anyway!

[rufus sparkfire]

I thought you wanted to drop out. We'll just push Arnst off the causeway or something.

I just looked, on page 162 or 3.
you didnt say how much gold you left

klaus left 1000 crowns.

So assume we all left the sdame?

I habe 2000 crowns.
800 crowns to enter a city!

dear god.

[rufus sparkfire]

Yes, it is a bit expensive. It's meant to upset you.

Mortus isn't claiming to have bank notes, but as a member of the merchant's guild she has banked most of her money with them and so is carry a bank note of sorts.

Right, that's OK.

I was looking forward to Arnst's toothless debauchery! 

[Cannonofdoom]

Heinrich will take 200 crowns from his remaining stash and give the rest to Billy for trading. He will find a fletcher and replenish his arrow supply.

"We should get horses. We'll need a pack horse with plenty of supplies for the journey too."

[Finlay]

fair play heinrich, couldn't see it when I looked.

Wish I had done that! although I probably would have kept more than 200

Yes, but Heinrich's not going to lose more than 200, and he didn't expect any heavy extortion issues.
