gold

Gold is the main power that allows a kingdom to run.

• As one takes a turn, population of the kingdom produces gold. The amount depends on the numbers of your population, the economy % study and the tax rate (tax rate depends on the kd's morale, and is 50% at max when one kd has 250% morale or more).
• Gold is needed every turn a kd moves to pay for the maintenance of the kingdom's troops and buildings. If these are not paid, some of the buildings collapse and many troops leave your kingdom.
• In order to hire troops from your kd's population, you must pay 250g per troop. (Only Goblins pay less for troops they hire from their pop.)
• Gold is the only way to pay and get goods from the Open Market.
• When one builds, gold is needed for every building. Also, when the laborers build equipment (Weapons, Armor and Warmachines, the build cost increases when the % of the equipment built is greater.
• As the mages of a kingdom create a spell scroll, gold is needed for the nessesery components to scribe the magical incantations on the scroll.
