21:34 Troop Balance:
Make Garrisson deployment unaffected by this rule (no MA reductions due to it)
24 Appointments:
(note: this will only be if the relevant appointments are held by a PC)
Give the CPS a small chance of having rumors/information of some NPC action that must be given attention to investigate. This may be true or false, of course. e.g. there are ruumors the Quartermaster is mebelezzing funds. He can investigate it (and it may seem to be true or false) or directly arrest him (and risk finding it false and having made an enemy from a simple rumor, moret so if the trial finds him not guilty)
Likewise, give the Governor of Paris and Minister of Justice a smal lchance there's something to be seen by him a sjudge (so having to devot ea week to the trial).
Other appointments may have als oa small chance to have his duties called to work...
Guive a small chance of anyone worth to to be offerec a bribe by an NPC. If so, he may act as he wishes, be it accepting it (and risking being discovered), ignoring it or dennouncing it to the CPS (and risking making an enemy). e.g. the quartermaster receives an offer to be bribed to give th earms contract to some NPC merchant. He can accept (and risk being discovered), refuse or tel lthe CPS about it (and having that merchant as an enemy, with consequences depending on his power). The bribe would be the one needed to influence his office (so, in the example given, he being a Brigadier, 400 livres).

Garrison Deployment is already covered by that; Troop Balance doesn't come in below SL 6!
Like the Justice ideas but will return to them. I want a reasonably major overhaul of those rules at some point.

Probable errata (I guess reminiscence from earlier versions)
Some of those appointments (the two I underlined) do not exist anymore...

Another question (this time about merchants):
So, what happens if a merchant is titled (not easy, but possible, for example due to a successful expedition)?

For the first title, there would be no penalty as Rank 1 - 1 would be 0 x 5 SP loss.
The higher a merchant rises in the noble ranks, the less acceptable being in trade is.

And generally I'd assume that merchants who get titles are going to choose to shut up shop!
But merchants are pretty much set up to make money not gain status. At some point I may look at extending that even further.

Yes, I understand this, but what I mean is that for them a title may be as bad as finishing their careers...
And this may lead to them not participating in foreign expeditions, as they could be titled...

I think that deciding between being a noble and continuing as a merchant was Sam's intent.

And the chances of becoming a Baron aren't impossible, but very unlikely for your average merchant.

What happens if the Frontier the RHNB is deployed at lowers its hostilities (due to BRs) to 1 (and so, has a maximum regiments of 1)? Is it redeployed to another Fronteir?
And what if all frontiers HL are lowered to 1? is fo, the RHNB will be over maximum at any frontier?
I know this is a unlikely situation, but may happen (mostly in winter). If it ever happens, I'd suggest the RHNB is recalled for R&R, and so it's not available until HL in any province is raised to 2+...

I think if the RNHB are somewhere that goes down to 1 they're redeployed. And if everywhere is at peace, as you suggest, they get a well deserved rest. |

In the table for Church Appointments, the SPs requisite, SPs won and pay for regiemntal/fleet chaplain say that they are as per Subaltern/lieutenant for the specific unit.
Nonetheless, a Lieutenant is the equivalent to a Captain in Guards and cavalry, not to a Subaltern. So, are they as Subalterns or as Lieutenants (or higher in Guards/Cavalry units than in Infantry)?

Can I also ask, for regimental chaplain, if they join a cavalry / infantry regiment, are they required to remain in that branch when a future opportunity exists at higher SL to switch regiments? |

As Subalterns. Although note that I'm moving onto Church rules after the nobility rules are up, so now is a good time to bring up suggested changes! Because of these being appointments they're allowed to switch freely. |
