Mind-bogglingly popular game series that you follow from early on and cannot stop, waiting for new installment like a drooling addict.

Long-runner soap opera you're too invested into to just stop watching it.

A fun little comic strip in the daily newspaper that's been around forever.

3/6

Who said it's fun? I didn't for sure.

I'm just waiting here for it to die horribly already so it will stop showing on my Unread Posts list.

Spices used to generate happiness but that trade route disappeared. If salt is boosting happiness, it must be offset by our high taxes because happiness has not grown since it's been active. We need something else before we can afford regular happiness spending, I believe.

[VoidSlayer]

B, but we will have to be spendthrift on everything else.

Edit: No more big parties!

[Detoxicated]

B. A standing army above the peasants is better than peasants who eventually learn how to fight.

Gotta keep up with the Joneses and their death squad mobilization program.

You support the expensive model of professional army. The army officers believe they should have everything on paper within a year, and then, with your permission, they can set out to work to restructurize the Army proper.

1105 AD, Summer

A delegation of governors of the lesser developed lands has come for an audience, bringing news of rumbling amongst the peasants. It seems that after scant few years of extra taxation, the people wish for the times when the taxes were lower. There have already been few incidents involving angry peasants and your tax collectors, and therefore the governors ask that you lower the tax to old values.

A) Sure thing, peeps.
B) No, I need monies!

[Harry Baldman]

B! Many monies are required! And soon they won't ever remember a time that the taxes were lower and everybody will settle into a nice routine.

B.
Wait a few generations, it will fix itself...

Whelp, we can't say anything other than B now that we've signed up for an expensive new army model.

You keep the taxes raised.

1105 AD, Midsummer

The Fireblood caravan is here, leaving you with stuff to make stuff explode, in return taking your gemstones.

Meanwhile, you get reports that the people keep paying taxes, although incidents happen from time to time.

11105 AD, Autumn

The alchemists are proud to report that the Thundercats have been refined in their design and the crews trained. Without delay, these fearsome Fireblood machines are added to your Army, and nothing blows up. Woo!

Few days later you have visitors from Agares. They are merchant representatives of that country.

"Greetings, King of Methiant. We bring news that are sad, as the money of your country is inferior to the wealth our King demands for our salt. Tell us, do you have anything more valuable than these small silvers you give us already?"

You decide to...

A) Try to persuade to them to honor the old deal.
B) Annul the trade agreement as its not gonna work it seems.
C) Offer them gemstones currently mined for Eldrican.

Ahah, here's where we get to break a better deal out.
C.
