[QUOTE="warderbrad, post: 2270905, member: 15269"] [b]Working on a system myself[/b] Hey, I have never posted to Enworld boards before but I thought this would be a good place to do so. I have been working on a economic model and system for a while due to a world I created that is mostly sea faring and the idea of trade is too plausable. I am kinda stuck in one point. I have taken and devised a list of raw materials and resources. The idea is that you would list the kingdoms that you have in your world, then under each kingdom you would list the cities that trade and their tech level. You can then detail the natural and intelectual resources for each city. While the set up of this system would take a little while once done the system should keep everything straight by itself. My idea is to detail each item listed in the PHB broken down into the main "ingredients" used to make them and the percentages of each. For example a backpack would be made of leather and iron (for buckles), at about 90/10 respectively. Then the value of leather and iron in the city (fluctuating due to trade and other factors) would determine the end value of the item. I have planned to make it possible to represent disruptions in trade or mining/gathering of materials and what not. THe place I am stuck is with the breakdown of the item in the books. If anyone would like to help with this or talk to me about helping in other areas my email is Warderbrad at hotmail dod com. Sorry for the strange way of putting it there but I don't like putting in my email addy straight out. I am very encouraged by the fact that this discussion is going as well as it is, and I would like to use some of the ideas presented here in my final product if it is alright. Brad Sumner [/QUOTE]
