    Aging and Gaming

    OSR How much does your party use Retainers, Henchmen and Strongholds?

    Domains are a major source of income in the mid-late game that can be used to finance PC shenanigans. They're also where PC levy their troops from. It doesn't really matter how good your AC is and how many attacks per round you get when you're facing units of dozens of hostiles from that earl...

    OSR How much does your party use Retainers, Henchmen and Strongholds?

    Always include them. Don't forget they're the ones who fill leadership positions in your domain and lead your army units in battle.
