    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Do you mean that they want a fixed amount of the voting power? Or they will invest more than 250.000sp? Sadly, the former cannot be done (most of all, it would be too much of a burden for me to to all the calculations whenever I have to release more silver shares and see how much voting power...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    I tell the bank that the silver shares are normally not open, however I am very grateful to them for letting me start this company. Thus I will accept the 250.000sp, which currently would give them 16% of the voting power and a position among the senior investors (aka the real ruling council of...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    It depends on what kind of academy you want: if you want a classic academic institution, with a lot of fine and liberal arts, then it should be independant. If you want something more practically oriented, such as agriculture, economics, mathematics, geography, alchemy and so on which may give...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Ederin creates another 162 silver shares and 18 golden shares, and delivers them to Alvar. I perfectly agree with your suggestions. I am beginning to think that we may have more food and herds than people. As for the weapons, don't fear: with our mercenary company, our blacksmiths and the...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Ooc It depends. Let us ignore the default possibility, as THIS company is not going to default. But, I think that in some years the company will distribute less than a 10% dividend of the profits. However, golden share holders ALWAYS get at least 10% dividend. Actually, the difference is not...

    The Doomed Bastards: Reckoning (story complete)

    Hmm...nice spot on that. I have to say that the wish was spelled in a strage way. Lets see how it goes on.

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    It was mainly for keeping the number nicely rounded *blushes*. Besides, I misstyped....all my money is in silver shares. Silver shares have voting power, golden shares no. I would suggest that whoever of you wants to invest, to invest mainly on silver shares and keep some money in golden shares...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    As for now, the company is called "Nascent Company for Development". It was founded by me, and will operate in the new continent that we are due to explore. As for now, the silver shares (those with voting rights) can be bought only be people who I know and trust, and you within that group, so...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Erg...maybe I understood incorrectly, but I thought that the first 15% of the shares that they wanted was a collateral, storaged into their vaults...meaning that if I default on my loan (because the leverage from 400 to 960 is a loan to me, not to the company), they get at least 15% of the...

    Leif, the cost of your equipment is around 57.000sp. I don't recall what the starting limit was, but I think it was around 61.000. So you would have 4000gp that get converted via special rule to 100.000sp, then add 250.000 from that puch and subtract 100.000sp for the title (unless you want to...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Really true, JA, but I have to say that I didn't mean to allow other entries in the company so soon. However, here is an outline for the Nascent company (it will be, at some point in the future, completely reorganized and transformed into a more complex organization). Golden shares: True...

    Aeon (updated 10/9/14)

    I don't care whether his campaign switches or not, as long as he post even a vague summary of what happened...even if it is "Ortwin-dead, Mostin-ascended, Nwn-became an ancient treant". :)

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Thus you may invest up to 75.000sp in a ship. For exactly the same price I was able to find a 120 ton vessel some 80 feet long 25 feet wide, a two master. She has 75 tons of cargo capacity and mounts one catapult forward and two on both the port and starboard sides. A perfect combination of...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Oh, well, I realize that ships cost much. One of the main reasons for the Dutch naval supremacy was the fact that they constructed ships by pooling money. Infact I accepted to pay it, hoping that I can sell the idea of the company to the captain of those 5 ships, they would represent his...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Hmm..ok then, instead of a warship and cargo, for 75.000 I buy something that is a combaination of both...like a transport ship designed to be capable of defending itself, but mantaining some carrying capacity. Hmm...that pretty much exhaust my purchase power for now, at least until someone...

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    I have plenty of cargo space. 1500 goats would not be a problem, even with the food necessary to keep them alive for 6 months. Oh, and I have good news and bad news. My divinations has revealed that the D'shai emperor knows this project...but as for now he has taken no steps to damage or halt it.

    The Four Lands - The Colony

    Hmm...tough stuff. I have to admit that the cost of a 6 month charter of 5 cargos surprised me: with 200.000sp I would be able to permamently buy 4 warships. However, if it appears to me that the captain is independent and over the course of 6 month I could sway him to become part of the...

    : I am going to access the credit line then, and i will write a long and detailed post this evening. (will buy the slaves and free them once on destination, however with the debt that they will repay by working for the company.). I will need the price of slaves, however, in order to make...

    Gaming w/Jemal - Rebuilding the World

    Hmm...I think I'll pass on this. I don't feel inspired enough and don't wanna ruin the game of other, more motivated people.
