Camps, towns and civic roles
A camp gives temporary protection; a town creates lasting responsibilities. Choose the right place and understand the permissions before inviting others.
guideClaims, plots and outposts
Claiming land, owning a plot and renting a room give different rights. Review the boundary and price before committing town funds.
guideDistricts, rooms and renting
Before offering a room, mark exactly what you are renting. A tenant’s rights apply inside that space, even when the landlord owns the building.
referenceTaxes, assessment and arrears
Know which account owes the bill before paying it. Personal earnings, town assessment, rent and service charges are separate obligations.
referenceTown development projects and tiers
Build a town that meets the next tier’s needs before opening a project. Set aside the supplies you will spend and the treasury reserve you must keep.
mechanicTown Wards and Afterfall utilities
A Town Ward needs activation and funding before it can help protect the town. Check its coverage and the separate funds used to turn away walking hostiles.

Nations & justice
5 articles
Nations, levies and diplomacy
A nation brings towns together without taking over their land or treasuries. Read the upkeep, invitation and departure rules before joining.
referenceNation projects and effective standing

guideWarrants, capture and surrender
A warrant has a jurisdiction, a reason and a sentence. Check who has authority before attempting capture or deciding how to surrender.
guideServing a sentence in the Penitentiary
Inside the Penitentiary, watch the routine and your remaining sentence. Work, stored belongings and release each follow their own rules.
