@ Tucker: The math of the sheet itself is perfect, but you realize people in towns don't produce crops, right? As it stands, your people will starve in less than an annum. Again, other than that, perfect.I do hate to give all this math to the players, but this is pretty much the only time you'll have to do all this crud. It just needs to be gotten out of the way so I can do all the shit that makes the RP function.Huh. 'Feckin bollocks, you learn something new every day.

Then I'll need a more specific answer to this; The number of people in a town, are they included in the number of people in the Fief, meaning the total of population is the Fief's population. OR. Are they entirely separate., as in, the Town of 16,000 is different from the Fief that holds 18,000 people. Essentially saying the whole Pop. is 34,000 people.

Because with what you are saying, the amount of people in the town are the people of the Fief, which means there are not 34,000 people, but in fact only 18,000 people total in there.

Also, if that is the case, taxes do not seem to be affected by Town Population, therefore if I reduce the size of the town, I gain more Crops and nothing else needs to be altered. Due to what I've read in the rules, you tax your population. Not your (specifically_ Town or Fief population.
