[QUOTE="Alchemist, post: 1543723, member: 6594"] Dosen't really matter though, as conversion to "real life" values only works superficially. For a grinding discussion on the economics of building and operating an inn as well as an analysis of the assumed economic system, [URL=http://www.enworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=87945]this thread[/URL] had a very good discussion on the values assigned to things by the game designers. If you're playing a 18th century game complete with the trappings of the industrial revolution and commensurate assumed technology level, you should consider picking up one of the "steampunk" supplements. I can't recommend any, but I know that Fantasy Flight Games put one out. I think there may be supplements by other third parties dealing with a Masque of the Red Death style campaign, but I'm not your man for that. :) Off the cuff, I would say that your guns would be cheaper, more reliable and more common. Melee weapons, particularly large ones, would be on their way out right along with armour. [/QUOTE]
