D&D General Elephants are cheaper than Warhorses

[Necropolitan]

There's probably a warranty component in the warhorse. If it breaks down during battle, a new one will be brought up to you. A few minutes' paperwork, check it for existing damage, and you're on your way.

They SAY the warranty covers everything but as one unsatisfied customer said about the deductible: “A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse!”

Here's an economics question; Would you pay ten bucks for a product that would correct D&D's economy???

I would pay somewhere from $20-60 for a good splat book that gave real information about creating economies in low, medium, and high magic societies. Similar to the 3e Stronghold Builders Guide, but strictly for economics.

I'd expect lots of tables.

If only there was enough demand to make supplying worth it. Unless somebody knows about a product like that already???

I paid $30 for A Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe back in the 3E days. Worth every penny, as it made 3E's janky economics make sense and serve as the basis for a recognizably medieval society. It was a bit like killing a cockroach with an atom bomb, but it was a good tool to set up my campaign initially.

While carpentry is obviously important to most economies, I'd probably expect more chairs than tables.

I just set prices what I want them to be, since I control how much loot they get anyway, I should control the prices too. IMO, of course.

Oh, look at the fancy man with his chairs! What, too good for a three-legged stool, like the rest of us peasants?

I moved my D&D game off of the gold piece standard and on to fiat currency.

Funny enough, i did pay 10 bucks for something like that. It's interesting read, and best of all, it's system and edition neutral.

It's like DJ Khalil says in Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse:

They wanna fight (they wanna fight)
I'm just gon' let 'em hate (I'm just gon' let 'em hate)
I gotta go high (gotta go high)
I gotta elephant (I gotta elephant)
