[QUOTE="Sigurd, post: 5126519, member: 19412"] Before you can do anything of course you have to determine what rights you're given as a noble. It is unlikely that you 'own' your land as you are still the loyal supporter of a monarch. You may however own or control some of it outright that is a rare but expedient occurrence. You may be responsible for managing a percentage of the lands in your control for the Crown. This may create a variable or fixed obligation on your part to surrender monies to the crown. One figure that is talked about is a third - one third is managed and all benefits go to the crown, one third is allowed to those beneath you to survive and draw their own wealth, and the final third is your own to enrich yourself and manage your own affairs. Of course in reality these lines are blurred. You may find that your predecessors sold or borrowed against your third, depleting its wealth potential. You may find that you're title has debts tithes and obligations that hurt, even imperil your profitability. Note that it is very possible under these sorts of systems that the crown is much more wealthy than you, even within your own lands. There are a few good supplements to read and the next Pathfinder Kingmaker looks good too. (They have posted the Players guide for the series but there isn't much in it.) As wells as the new Paizo product and the previously mentioned, I can recommend several mostly under appreciated titles: AEG - Empire Atlas Games - Dynasties and Demagogues, Crime & Punishment, Love & War Eden Studios - Fields of Blood Book of War - good kingdom management rules and war rules - its very cheap as a PDF Mongoose - Strongholds & Dynasties TSR\WOTC - Birthright - a fiefdom ruling game Kelestia - Harn Manor - very feudal gritty non D20 game [/QUOTE]
