A Different World: The Noble Cities [OOC|Open]

[G-Tech Corporation]

Potential advancements do tick up over time, but breakthroughs (creating a new tech) will pretty much always come slowly because I have to balance them. Once you meet friends you can get consistent tech advances through studying what they already have!

Unfortunate, are breakthroughs assigned the same for developing arcana as normal technology? Do developments outside of scholars do it? (like what I got turn before last)

They all pull from the same pool, yep - but that's independent of events.

Sigh, I just want carpentry so I can use images of buildings with curved roofs

[Novas Arcanum]

I'm cool with you writing stuff about the Huang but if you could make them more Chinese inspired that would be great.

Alright. Are there any particular themes or subjects you have in mind?

Feel free to write about whatever

Did my workers strike because of stability? Or was it some other reason?

[The GAmeTopians]

Did my workers strike because of stability? Or was it some other reason?

Should be stability, that's why it went up afterward.

Are we all gonna be ready for an update tomorrow? Or will we have to push it back a day?

[Olthenia]

I'll try to get a post up this evening.

[Lazarian]

I’ll post later today for sure.

I am aiming for today, with luck.

[G-Tech Corporation]

Update coming down the pike. Post rapidly if you wanna get in on this.

[Ralnis]

Is there a reason I haven't been getting writing? Is my luck that bad?

Nope! You're just putting one scholar into a pool of 10+ other scholars. Your chances of not succeeding for a few turns are pretty good.

Fair enough. Just damn, really. However, it seems that my things are coming up for the Sons of Tesla.

Aaaand done!

EDIT: ...Too late. u_u;

[Novas Arcanum]

Well I was hoping that my inklings of sericulture bonus from the previous era would let me snatch a quick tech and get started on making some serious ka-ching$$$ but I see that's not the case.

Praise be to the Dark Gods. The Penithel have found the true faith. May the Black Kings reign eternal.

[Olthenia]

Nice tune there, Lazarian.

Okay, it's time for a silly question~

When an Artisan occupies a district, does she produce things from said district instead of or in addition to her usual +1 Wealth / +1 Industry?

All Citizens have two discrete incomes - Passive and Active.

Passive Income does not depend on action, only status. Striking Citizens do not produce it, but almost all other Citizens do. Your Freemen can be cutting Timber, learning a trade, carrying silk to the next city over, etc. and still produce their Labor. Ditto Artisans and their Wealth/-Wealth+Industry.

Active Income on the other hand is quite variable. Operating Districts, working at a Construction, doing Forced Labor, going on a raid to carry back loot - these are all actions, and calculated separately from Passive Income.

I think the Industry Conversion and Research confuse people the most. Perhaps I should just make those Actions.

It would help if it was clearer whats a passive income and active income in the mechanics menu.

From what I get on wealth it's the first city/capital and artisans. Other than that everything else is active.

[Lazarian]

Passive is the Labor produced by peasants and the Wealth and/or Industry produced by Artisans. These are always produced, unless your workers are striking.

Active is the actions made during the turn. For example, Artisans working a Forge or Tannery is an active action.

Construction is completed at the end of the turn using what you generated during it.
