    going over certain amount will eventually cause RTW to CTD or even worst PC might get locked up on the end of the turn.It would be good to know what would be highest amount per faction

    By trial and error process I have come conclusion that highest amount seem to be 999.999.

    Yes.

    Edit: And Dol Guldur says 70,000,000 is a valid amount of denarii in descr_strat.

    Indeed, 500,000,000 (500 million) denari also works perfectly well thank-you-very-much. I wonder what that is in today's money?

    Maybe $100 million to $10 billion. Peanuts, really. The use of denarii as currency is rather silly—a denarius was worth not much at all. A decent job got one denarius a day. Roman legionaries got paid maybe 300 denarii a year or so, but in the game a group of 40—assumed to be representative of 1600-2400—gets paid hardly more than that. That's why RTR 6.0 will be switching the currency to silver talents: not perfect, but a lot better. 500 million talents of silver would be equal maybe 10 billion pounds of it, while some Googling tells me would sell for around $70 billion today. I expect that silver was worth more back then, however.

    Denarii is your standard int. Max positive value is 2,147,483,647. If you put in 2,147,483,648 for instance it becomes -2,147,483,648.

    For some strange reason when I start campaign with more then 999.999 after 8 or 9 turn RTW locks up my PC
