[quote=So Boerd] Oh, I incorporated pay in the soldier's overall upkeep. For example, the Huskarl's armament upkeep adds up to 4 (2 for his axe, two for his mail) but I wrote 5 to account for pay. Also, they are indeed raised. [/quote] So you did. I was living in a past life, where javelins cost 4 upkeep, and Greataxes 3. I'm going to get some coffee. Damn night shifts. And in case it got lost, you are indeed accepted. Also, those names! Let me see. . . without wikipedia, Jorvik is the Norse name for the county of York, Dyflinn is Dublin, Sudreyar is the petty kingdom that used to rule over parts of Ireland and Scotland. . . the others escape me.
