    Province Edict System

    Once a Proconsul is in his province, he may select two edicts from two of the following branches (for a total of four edicts) to remain active for the year.

    Military Branch
    1. -15% legionary recruitment
    2. -15% legionary upkeep
    3. -50% legionary retinue cost
    4. Recruit local Legatus (general with random traits)
    5. -15% Naval recruitment Costs
    6. -15% Naval upkeep costs

    Economic Branch: Exploitation
    Taking any of these action will reduce provincial good will*
    1. +15% income
    2. D20 x 100 added income
    3. +25% income
    4. D20 x 200 local auxilia conscripted (varies by region)
    5. -10% building costs
    6. D20 x 500 income

    *Provincial goodwill refers to the love the people of the province bear you. If you exploit them, your influence will decrease. If you govern well, they will appreciate your efforts. The more loyal a province to an individual, the more benefits a person can extract from the provinces later on. One example is fleeing to the province for sanctuary.

    The number selected will be the number deducted from your “good will” points. These points will be measured against the points of others in the same province to determine overall influence.

    This is not an exhaustive list. Propose an action in the game and ask for a moderator’s opinion of what it Is worth.

    Economic Branch: Investment
    This branch increases province good will in the corresponding number as outlined above.

    1. -10% income
    2. -20% income
    3. Construct a tier I building for public works
    4. Raise a legion from the province
    5. Construct a tier II building for public works
    6. Construct a tier III building for public works

    This is not an exhaustive list. Propose an action in the game and ask for a moderator’s opinion of what it Is worth.

    Provincial Capitals are as follows:
    Italy: Rome (Italia I, Nota bene: pleb and patrician point systems govern this area. The region of Italia I is exempt from this system)
    Spain: Carhtago Nova (Tarraconensis VI)
    Africa: Carthage (Africa Proconsularis I)
    Greece: Athens (Acheae I)
    Gaul: Massalia (Nabonensis I)

    If there isnt income for the provinces, then what does +10% income apply to?

    Also, can you take policies in the investmebt branch?

    1) it's not clear enough to take for granted, I don't want to break the rules by ignorance.

    2) it sounds more like actions to take rather than policies to implement. For example, can you take Raising a Legion as a policy, or is it an action to gain GW ppints?

    that's an action.

    Also, just because something isn't in the rules doesn't mean you can't attempt to do it.

    Yeah, I got that! I'm quite pleased at the freedom of the rules. If I succeed in Dacia, I'll try to build up all those really rich gold mines.

    Dacia would need to become a province for anyone to have an income from any type of mines found there.

    Also, the economic bonuses should be back to normal, sorry for the momentary panic!

    Just so you know, I will be gone much of today (12 - 6:30 pm EST), but I will have access to Tapatalk and be able to view posts from time to time. Pink is relatively gonna be inactive till Friday afternoon (he told me this privately), so just rp as if he were there and don't stall any debates otherwise. Now if I am truly needed, I can be reached via Discord which I will have mobile access to.
