    Default Income Updates

    The mods and I have been discussing new venues to gather more income and we have a rough idea of what we wanna do.

    Stipends/Salaries for Great Offices
    Lord Chancellor: 30,000Lord High Steward: 20,000
    Earl High Marshal: 20,000
    Admiral of the Fleet: 20,000
    Lord Secretary of the State: 15,000
    Lord Privy Seal: 20,000
    Lord Lieutenant of Ireland: 20,000 (from Dublin)
    Warden of the Scottish Marches: 20,000 (from Carlisle)
    Lord Captain (Lieutenant) of Calais: 25,000 (from Calais)
    Lord Chancellor of Wales: 20,000 (from Caernarfon)
    Lord Protector of England: No Stipend
    Additional Income
    For every title a noble holds, except the King, they will gain a fraction of the profit instead of the full income.

    The following incomes affect only secondary titles, not primary ones.

    Option A

    Rich Income - 17,500 Crowns
    Prosperous Income - 15,000 Crowns
    Average Income - 12,500 Crowns
    Poor Income - 10,000 Crowns

    Option B
    Rich Income - 15,000 Crowns
    Prosperous Income - 10,000 Crowns
    Average Income - 7,500 Crowns
    Poor Income - 5,000 Crowns

    ====================

    As for the King, he will granted a new mechanic called Royal Taxes. There are two ways to achieve this:
    1. Parliament: By using Parliament to approve of taxes, the King has a chance to gain more money.
    2. Royal Decree: By using Royal Decrees to approve of taxes, the King has a chance to gain quick money, but would be less than using Parliament approval.

    Maybe a third option? Something that taxes the clergy or a royal tithe from the nobility?

    This mechanic can only be used once per week and only one method can be used. However, Parliament method can only be used once every two or three weeks.
    What do you guys think? Any suggestions?

    Looks good to me. Perhaps the abuse of royal decree could lead to some penalties for the King?


    (I Like option B for the incomes, also)

    Option A is okay since it's a bit more, but B if you like. So would this mean we would get income now from each province instead of just 1?

    Everyone but the king would, yeah; he can tax both the nobles and commons for extra income.

    We wanna try to diversify a means to gain income. Nobles and Kings can request loans and nobles can tax as well, so we might as well add in some more chances for both sides of the coin.

    I say we implement it now, with option B (more money) since we made unit sizes smaller.

    Yeah, and it would make additional titles actually useful, beyond manpower.

    Using Parliament to levy taxes frequently could result to some severe consequences with Royal Decree being less, but still severe.
    Does this look good to you all then?
