Defense
 - Musket Production - 12.5k SCI remaining -  Have 7,500 Credit from captured muskets sent to RWCC for dis-assembly and study

  This project will benefit all who have military/defense troops by increasing BV of lower level troops.

Infrastructure/Travel
- Engineering - 7.5k SCI remaining - This will allow for new NPC types, possible efficiency in building, and alternate promotion paths for OTH/SPE.

   The Mayor has committed 2,500 SCI from the town for this project - this is a very important advancement that can lead to additional advancements
   Please consider contributing to this project

General Science
 - Printing Press - 5k SCI remaining - Treaty with GA will require this and will supply 1/2 of required SCI (5k)

Yes technically not, but the difference is so small I'll give it to you

(I was left in limbo thinking why you'd specify "1000" and get only 997 CKG worth of items but it's fine this way - I saved the remodeling charge by swapping your coins to Jacket who wanted them, and his B100 bars to King who wanted them, and giving the King's B1000 bar to you!  )

it is 2.5 years upfront, and the rest at the close of the period.

One installment (with another of the same amount coming in 1629) is:

Aaspere: 75 mil (HH The Mayor)
Essu: 68.5 mil (Sir Crichton, the Margrave of Plath)
Haljala: 61.5 mil (Lord Angus)
Kunda: 55 mil (Jungherr Cooper, Bt.)
Pada: 48 mil (vacant?)

The calculation is at the nominal amount of produce (if less, typically much better price), VEG at 1200 and MEAT at 5000, superveg a bonus and 25% discount.

Current Kingdom SCIentific Projects

It is VERY clear that the kingdom is in dire need of Scientific advances!  The latest battle showed that some luck and sheer numbers was involved with wining a battle against forces with high technology weaponry.  We may not be so lucky next time.

Please send give SCI to Town the with the [comment] - SCI-MSK,SCI-ENG,SCI-PP to designate the purpose until further mechanics are established.

give SCI XXX Town [SCI-MSK,SCI-ENG or SCI-PP]

We have an admin command that can transfer all your items to the new user. Please allow a short while to fix the command, it is currently not 100% working correctly.

The mini game should play only once, but do you think the multiple times is a good idea? Either until the lot changes (up to 5 min) or a certain number of tries (such as 10). The payouts are raffled from the items of a certain pool account, so it is easy to adjust the quantity of "m" in the account.

Hi, I gave 201 CR1625E to Smelter for a "1000" bar, but have not received anything back yet. Did I not include enough CKG?

I won't have the money to pay the King's upfront 5 year fee, so I have to bow out.

Noble Promotions in the Quasquibicentenary Jubilee of Crypto Kingdom and His Majesty's Reign

Promotions to Earl (L14) and creations of Counties

HH The Duke of North Face, TA Viscount of Forte Spagnolo, 2nd/I Bt of CK, Mayor, etc(x2) is created Earl of Ironlock. The County of Ironlock is situated between New Liberty, Ramsey, Polonian domains, and Free City of Danzig. (There is still no information how the Duke's troops are faring there   )

Manors in the Old Duchy

HM The King, HRH The Prince Royal and HH The Duke of New Liberty disclaim Lordship of Aaspere, so the next in line for the premier Manor in the Duchy (and the Kingdom) are:
HH of North Face
HSH The Duke of OZ
HH Duke Saddam of Ramsey, in this order.

With the current security force of Essu (10.6m yearly), it would be impossible to continue a profitable business if 75% of projected sales were to go to HM. If the 75% is  to the lease holder, then by all means I will continue on as lord of Essu--otherwise I will have to liquidate my security forces to continue on as lord.

1. Yes 75% would go to King, according to the calculation with nominal values.

2. The intention is to use 1,000 for VEG and 5,000 for MEAT in the calculation only. You know that these are far from the actual values - the midprice of VEG has surely been in the 1,500 range instead and MEAT correspondingly. Future prices we cannot know and King has no lever to them (except "extra winter meat" which is scripted to come to market only if the ask > 6,000 (to Farmers). The VEG cannot be transported in the winter because it is freezing, and in the spring the VEG is already about to spoil.

3. The "superveg" is also a bonus to the leaseholder.

4. Famine years are a jackpot to the producers. Even a 25% reduction in production of VEG will certainly mean at least double price, so...

5. I am ok if someone does not want to continue; the greatest benefit of manors now is to gain a foothold for permanent contract, even ownership. At 3% IRR (what buildings usually give), Essu Manor's discounted future production is worth more than 1 billion. But players have different playstyle and each has their own priorities. I saw Roopatra yesterday, and it was funny to realize that we both had been sure that Erin is played by the other one (which was not the case and the real controller is not known). Not only that, there are rumors that me and Roopatra are the same person (that would be quite a double life though..), and probably some still believe that Soul, Heimo, SS and HS-S are fictitious. Well they are real guys, HS-S is already in the 3rd incarnation due to probably challenges with health, need to ask Soul I meet weekly and he knows Roopatra and HS-S. I have met Syksy IRL as well, he is also not me.
