    Market Value, its Math, and My thoughts... open discussion

    I think its great that the merchant's guild NPC run half of the organization wants to charge x2 production in cost. As long as players can do whatever they want I think your argument for the merchant's guild makes a lot of sense. This last post makes a lot of sense to me and I think you have...

    Market Value, its Math, and My thoughts... open discussion

    Market Value should be what you can make money at and people will pay. If you try to artificially create this value you are doomed to failure. I think its metagaming to agree with people out of character to pay a certain amount or try to convince other players of that. What characters will...

    New Acarthia Merchants Guild

    Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but in the version Dani linked it says or for all the ranks until Master Craftsman.

    New Acarthia Merchants Guild

    One thing I'll note about the charter is that with the exception of the Master Craftsman rank and the Guildmaster rank the guild does not require any levels of Production skills or Craftsman, it can all be done with tasks.

    I don't understand what you are advocating for here. In the other thread you said you became a blacksmith because you enjoyed the role play. What are you suggesting should change with this thread?

    New Acarthia Merchants Guild

    I think loot bag is changing that. PCs that participated in all the battles last game walked away with over 4 gold. Thats not bad for a weekend. If you are spending more than that in potions/scrolls/equipment then you aren't being frugal enough with your stuff.

    New Acarthia Merchants Guild

    The Alliance system is horrible for Artisans be they blacksmiths, scroll makers, or potion makers. No argument here. This is one of the reasons you see so few players play Artisans. The economy is "murder" based rather than production based because the things players want can't be produced by...

    Where is the New Acarthia Town Square?

    I've always considered the town square the area between the tavern, healer's guild, and mage's guild.

    New Acarthia Merchants Guild

    Re: Merchant's Guild prices Goblin Points are the major competition with the Merchant's Guild and PC crafters. Why pay full price when you can pay production? It is very rare for items to go for anything more than cost which is ridiculous and no way to run an economy. I think as coin gets...

    Seeking Information on the Origin of Formal Scrolls [Will Pay Gold!]

    Goodman Andrew, If you found my information helpful, please donate my gold to Faren so he can best use it to benefit the Healer's Guild. I have complete confidence that he knows what the guild's needs are better than I. -Squire Wolsey

    New Acarthia Merchants Guild

    I really like the idea of a magic item being sold by the guild once per game. I think this by itself would make the merchant's guild relevant to the rest of the game. The other functions of the guild are largely obsoleted by Goblin Points, or are fully out of game (sale of items for real...

    Game World Consistency and Improvisation by Plot

    I find myself also struggling in our local game to determine how much reading into situations I should do IG and how much I should assume is a portrayal that needs to be hand-waved as an OOG thing. When an NPC acts uncharacteristically shady are they enslaved? Are they taking a moral turn...

    Seeking Information on the Origin of Formal Scrolls [Will Pay Gold!]

    Goodman Andrew, I have also been interested in this question for some time now. In addition to the two pieces of information that Squire Kendrick has provided I have seen or heard of two other sources of ritual magic: 1. Mixil the Fae was able to cast the Stake of WOE spell without the need...

    Thank you, NPCs!

    Thank you so much to our NPCs and staff, you run an amazing game and the love and dedication to it really shows.

    Loot sack!

    I think the IC and OOC sides of this should stay separate. I personally don't feel the need to get additional resources IC from my time NPCing. I NPC because I enjoy it, it allows me to see and play a different side of the game, and the game on a whole is better for it. If there are players...

    Lock Physreps

    I don't pick locks and have no idea what the degree of difficulty is on the in question locks. I'd like to see more simple locks in game to reward PCs that have taken those skills. Additionally, I love seeing rendered locks and other reasons to encourage someone with Legerdemain rather than...

    Spoils from Deaths Isles

    I'll make change out of the treasury for the amount overpaid to us, it seems silly for you two to bear the cost personally, especially when you are trying to make loot more fair.

    July: Ships and Mod Cards and Sealing Wax — Things of Importance

    Yeah, that makes sense. When I read it a second time I understood what you were saying. I'd argue that the rule that forces you to get a Marshal will allow NPC camp to portray the NPCs that should have been present but weren't. Either way, should be interesting.
