I should probably start working on my family history if this serf rebellion is to take off...

Quick question though, do you plan to start the rebellion immediately as the RP starts or are you going to hold it off for a bit?

So... how about the county?

@Enalais Nah, I got nothing in particular planned. Do as you wish.

So... how about the county?

What do you mean?

How is the county of Laeutaeu?

How is the county of Laeutaeu?

Mostly mountainous as seen here:

My Hider [+]

As for population, predominantly German with a Slavic minority to the very north (Bohemians).

Alright so excellent for mining.

Alright so excellent for mining.

Yup. Two or three mines. Majority of the mines will be down south, in Greinburg. That entire county is in the mountains. I was thinking Greinburg will be the mining hub of the duchy, Manburg has very fertile ground along the middle so perfect for agriculture and also some mining in the south, Rastenburg as well, Dobersberg is good for agriculture and cattle herding, Lichtenau is great for cattle and mining.

So when you say mining is it like mining of everything or will you randomize what is mined? Like gold,silver,copper etc?

Most likely will randomize. The ore being mined will determine the revenue from the mine, gold mines being the most valuable, then silver, iron, copper and coal. The most valuable mines are of course placed in the most mountainous parts.

Yes, but you will have less manpower being in the mountains. That's the trade.

So does that mean Rastenburg will have a fair bit of man power?

Meh. That's what mercs are for.

That sounds fine however does that 6,000 include the levies that are conscripted during big wars??? Or are we going for an England style and having the peasantry pay a small tax to avoid fighting, thus using this money to have a larger professional army??? Fair enough...I see what you mean.
