Royal Treasury

[The Celtic Viking]

Folgore's made 150 mnai from The Battle of Syria.
Strategos roma's account was frozen.

(OOC: Foiled by my own greed! I don't know how - I'm sure I double checked - but Folgore made more money from the trade than I did. Serves me right I guess. )

[Folgore]

Haha! Karma works.

When do you calculate the income though, after ending the turn? I'm sure Salamis-Side was making more when I had the save.

[The Celtic Viking]

No, I do it after I've made all construction and recruitment, usually just before I do my own moves. Is that really affecting sea trade as well? :/

[Folgore]

Ah, I just loaded yesterday's save and looks like I was wrong. My route was indeed more.

It should be less than yours this season though. :P

Treasurer Report, Autumn 263 BCE


Disbanded Paul D's Peltastai in Diospolis-Megale.

[Folgore]

I defeated an army of 594 Seleucid soldiers in the 2nd Battle of Syria.

[The Celtic Viking]

Treasurer Report, Winter 263 BCE


Folgore earned 297 mnai from his battle.

[Folgore]

I would like to re-sign the Salamis-Antiocheia route, before I forget it again.

[Folgore]

I have defeated 264 Seleucid soldiers in the Battle of Palmyra and earned 1057 from selling 1433 Palmyrians into slavery.

I need walls around Palmyra as soon as possible. If the Chancellor does not see fit to spend the empire's money on this, I will pay for them myself.

[The Celtic Viking]

Actually, you only earned 717 mnai from selling the slaves, as your personal income for that is number of slaves sold/2. I'm going to let you pay for the walls yourself, because since RC 3.1 failed, I have no choice but to recruit units until both Royal Armies are made up of 20 units each. Since it's your fault it failed, you've only yourself to blame. :p

Anyway, I'm signing the Salamis-Side trade route again.

[Folgore]

So I only made 717 mnai from my slaves and 132 mnai from the battle loot, from which I have to subtract 800 mnai for the walls I need for my protection. So in total, my glorious conquest of Palmyra earned me 49 mnai...

I should have listened to my mother and become a pottery merchant.

OOC: And my character got the "wealthy" trait after this battle...

Haha, thanks for loaning me the cash. Sorry for the long absence.

[Folgore]

I would like to have my two units of Ioudaioi Taxeis retrained in Damascos.

[The Celtic Viking]

@strategos roma: No problem. I do expect to be repaid for it at some point, though. :p

@Fogore: Sure, shall do so when I can.

[The Celtic Viking]

Folgore's Iudaioi Taxeis units have been retrained in Damaskos.

[Paul D]

using personal funds to set up provisional government in Kydonia (costs 200)

Hiring 2 units of mercenary peltastai on Krete with personal funds (costs 5,602)

Well, might as well attempt to cut losses:

Signing my 15 trade ships onto the Kydonia-Athens route (338 per ship)

[The Celtic Viking]

Hired 2 mercenary peltasts for Paul D.

[The Celtic Viking]

I'm retaining the Salamis-Side trade route.

[Folgore]

And I am retaining the Salamis-Antiocheia route.

I defeated and army of 1157 Seleucid soldiers at the 3rd battle of Syria.

[The Celtic Viking]

Recruited a unit of Enoci Curoas for The Celtic Viking
Folgore earned 579 from The 3rd Battle of Syria
Paul D didn't sign any trade route

[Folgore]

I would like to:

• Retrain my Ioudaioi Taxeis and Sphendonetai in Antiocheia
  468 mnai
• Recruit one unit of Toxotai Kretikoi in Antiocheia
  1424 mnai
• Recruit one unit of Ioudaioi Taxeis in Damascos
  1503 mnai
  
  3395 mnai in total

[The Celtic Viking]

Retrained Folgore's Iudaioi Taxeis and Sphendonetai, and recruited a unit of Toxotai Kretikoi for him in Antiocheia, and a unit of Iudaioi Taxeis in Damaskos.

[The Celtic Viking]

Fined Paul D 1000 mnai for breaking the law and ignoring his Basileus warning.

(Edit: forgot to give the tiny battle bonus to Folgore. Will do so next season.)

[Folgore]

(Edit: forgot to give the tiny battle bonus to Folgore. Will do so next season.)

I did not report it because I didn't kill any of the enemy and it would have been a very small amount.

This season though, I defeated an army of 425 Seleucid soldiers at the battle of Kilikia.

[Paul D]

What trade routes are open right now? I'd better start doing some.

Yeah I was going to say something about that- its pointlessly easy to make money off of trade

[Folgore]

All are open, except Salamis - Antiocheia and Salamis - Side.

You can see how much a route is worth by clicking the settlement, then the trade button in the lower left and then the trade routes button in the left of the trade screen. I believe the Antiocheia - Salamis route is most profitable from the ones that are not taken, giving you 353 mnai per ship per season. Sign a route now to keep yourself from going bankrupt, but remember that trade routes expire at the end of the year (next turn), so you will need to resign them again in the spring.

[Paul D]

Signing Antiocheia-Salamis route

[The Celtic Viking]

Paul D has gone into debt. If he doesn't sort it out next turn his units will be disbanded.

Edit: Oh, I'm such a lousy Treasurer! I was in a hurry when I made this that I once again forgot to give you your battle income, Folgore. Seeing how strapped you are for money right now, I do hope you can find a way to pull through to the next season.

Seriously though, I do apologize.

Edit 2: Oh, and I'm resigning the Salamis-Side trade route.
