Market/Gold Bar Fees changes

[Lefty]

maha sneaks in a different discussion...

to create a new recurring demand, a new addition to the game has to be added.

what about the port development. all those developments needs to be done in gold bars. repairs have to be done in gold bars etc.

to create more demand for goldbars you just have to attack and demolish a nice peaceful port

Interesting recurring demand thought. What if you could attack a port(other than your own) and the damage done (repairable by gold bar only) would affect each individual of nobility (sparring the newbs) canceling out bonuses earned by rank to regain the bonuses. Each individual would have to use gold bars to repair the port in proportion to their influence/rank. Another twist to nation controlled port wars. I think it needs more financial repercussions. Ideas

Valid, solid, noteworthy

It is an interesting idea. Another idea is to reduce the price of gold and incorporate it as another game resource in virtually anything.

Gold Bars required to purchase/repair port cannons ?

Stan, you should know how it works.

Maha will explain for the honest folk out there.
in a port are good and hardworking people, but to get something done you need civil servants. these clerks have very sticky hands. no permission to build or rebuild without greasing the machine. that's where the goldbars are needed for

I hear that Joe the Gold Tooth is aware of the questions and he will soon publish an article with his analysis.

As far as administration is concerned, it is only inevitable that consumption will raise in the future as more features are added. This is not something to rely on though. Goldsmith is a risky operation after all. It pays more than most banks though but less than merchant fleets (for the same cost). You choose.
