Regional Bonuses
Lincolnshire:
- Lincoln Cathedral: The tallest building in England and indeed the known world at this time, this magnificent house of God is also famed as a pilgrimage site for Saint Hugh of Lincoln (one of the kingdom's best known saints) and the burial site of the viscera of Eleanor of Castile, Edward I's beloved wife, whose funeral procession started in Lincoln. Naturally the Bishop of Lincoln can count himself one of the more powerful clerics in England. +10% income, +1 Charisma, +1 levy and taxation rolls. Characters may also seek refuge within the Cathedral for up to 1 in-game year and, unless permitted by the Bishop of Lincoln, anyone who would do harm unto them on its consecrated ground will certainly have to face some consequences at the Church's hands.
- The People of Lincoln: Lincoln was devastated by Viking raids in Saxon times, but gradually recovered and boomed after the construction of Lincoln Cathedral and had become one of England's wealthiest towns by 1150 thanks to the cloth & wool trade. It began to decline at the dawn of the 15th century due to plague and flooding, but even so its remaining people will do their utmost to defend what they still have should an army come to their gates. d2*d1000 Militia (75% Militia Longbows, 25% Militia Footmen) will spawn when the city comes under attack unless its people happen to actually like the attacker more than its present controller and are confident that they won't sack the place upon victory.
