>>5454452Kaiser Diederich Kupferohr von Wolkenburg, the mighty and wise is poring over documents that just keeps appearing at his office. His administrators are hard at work managing the many finances of the reich, or more specifically, the spending of it. The Kaiser has trouble signing all the papers fast enough and orders a device that lets him simply stamp his insignia onto the documents. The Kaiser does enjoy lavish meals whenever he has a break though, and a personal choir sing balads in praise. Life is good, for the Kaiser.
>>5456843Action 1: Build Port on the inner coast.
Trade Policy: Trade 2 Hemp for 2 Rubber with the Tempestous Convocation.
Presence Policy: Spread Reichskrone to the Convocation of Tempestous Scions, costing 1 Presence.
Baron Axel Leonhard Gutermuth von Löwenburg has had a talk with a delegation from the Convocation of Tempestous Scions, and thinks a trade with them will have great value. He is already quite intrigued by their rubber, and setups a trade deal. In addition to this, they are very interested in the Reichskrone, and them adopting it will empower the currency even further. The design will be the same though, because if the Kaiser don't change it for Axel, he definitely wont change it for the Scions.
Action 2: Build Carpenter in the northern forests.
Production Policy: Produce 2x Enchanted Bronze Woodcutter Tools (1.5 Prod + 4 Mag, 1.5 Copper + 0.75 (+0.25 from rounding) Tin + 1.5 Wood).
Produce 2x Enchanted Bronze Battleaxes, for standing army (1.5 Prod + 4 Mag, 1.5 Copper + 0.75 (+0.25 from rounding) Tin + 1.5 Wood).
While bronze is what strikes the earth, it would not have the leverage it has if not for wood. Indeed the axe has many uses, not just in felling trees, but also in combat. The spear can stab as hard as you can thrust, but an axe can maim with even greater strength thanks to it's heft. It is more difficult to manage, but an elite formation can wreak havoc with axes against a greater force of spearmen.
Production Policy: Increase production of Enchanted Bronze Pickaxes by 2, one in copper and one in tin (+1.5 Prod +4 Mag, +1.5 Copper +0.75 (-0.25 due to previous rounding) Tin +1.5 Wood).
Produce 2x Enchanted Bronze Pickaxes, one in gold and one in silver (1.5 Prod + 4 Mag, 1.5 Copper + 0.75 (+0.25 from rounding) Tin + 1.5 Wood).
The bounty of the mountain is the very thing which will get us more.
Production Policy: Produce Preserved Food (5 Production + 10 Food).
Wealth Policy: Expand Farming and Volcano Guilds (5 wealth into each, totalling 10).
Though Immelreich is rich with food and wealth, the elders are still worried enough for the future that they make those of idle hands work making preserved food. Ever the worry warts, those. But while the elders worry about bad times, the guilds expand, amassing yet more farmers and volcanologists, to ensure we always have plenty of food and magic.
