Help with Lyre of Building / Stronghold Builder's Guide

The SBG does not have anything in it on using a Lyre of Building, and that is going to be our main method of construction.

The book states that each 10,000 GP in price equals one week of construction time.

The Lyre can build at a rate of 300 man days worth of work every half hour of playing.

An example would be a wall 10' x 10' x 2' thick made of reinforced masonry costs 450 GP. So a 200' long wall could be built in one week for 10,000 GP. How many men, or man hours would this take.

Remember this is by the books standards, and they say flat out that they decreased construction times for games sake.

Thanks.

Play it one hour a week to cut the labor cost by half. Play two hours a week (the maximum) and all your labor is free.

You still need to buy or otherwise acquire materials. It doesn't quarry, it doesn't cut down trees, it just builds.
