[QUOTE="NotAYakk, post: 8523234, member: 72555"] I'd extend levels. Provinces and Regencies have levels. The Level of your Provinces (and its kind) give it abilities; muster troops, whatever. But only if you can control it. The Level of your Regency is how much control you have over it. The Regency level gives benefits both the ruler (ie, Bloodline powers) and to your ability to interact with the Provinces. A high level set of Provinces without a high level Regency is uncontrolled by the ruler. A Regency that outsizes its Provinces has little to work with. We then steal Regency point kinds to make Regency classes, like: Law Temple Source Guild On the Provinces side, we can come up with a pile of Province classes. Your [b]Dominion[/b] is the parts of the Provinces you can exploit using your Regency level. It is build-a-bear. Multiple PCs ruling the same country (set of provinces) can plunder a different set of Domain levels to build each of their Dominions within that country. When you run short of Domain levels in your country, you'll want to take control over another province. Imagine the PCs start out ruling [b]Homeland[/b]. It has Domain levels: (total 14). Towns L 2 Wilds L 3 Leylines L 3 Farms L 5 Naval L 1 The PCs each start out with Regency L 1, except for the ruler who is Regency L 2. Adventures and actions that increase their control over their country boost their Regency level. After a while, the PCs are level 5, and everyone is Regency L 3. There are 5 of them; there aren't enough Domain levels for them to all rule. They can expend efforts "leveling up" their provinces, seek to expand them, etc. [/QUOTE]
