    Hi,

    This is simple and logical, but I find myself wanting to ask that while on Caravan duty your meals and pay get covered from the expedition coffer, this could be a good way to survive meager times while bouncing back. I believe a 10% deduction to the pay would be enough for balancing. IF however you fail the Caravan mission, you have to pay say 2 days worth to your brothers.

    Sounds like it makes sense, as you cant get a little “ahead payment” to feed your men when taking on a long caravan contract.
    Another option would be if they pay you part of the sum in advance to cover your expenses.

    The reason why its not working like that yet is, that you can break contracts without penalties. We wil adress that during the worldmap reowrk and the implementation of a reputation system.

    I really hope that when the reputation system is implemented, that it coincides with a feature that lets you know the difficulty of the job before taking it, as quite often I take a job, turn up to the location and find it to be deadly, and have no choice but to break contract.

    Absolutely. The reputation system will be very closely intertwined with the new contract system and you will only be offered contracts according to your fame and reputation.
    Nobody in his right mind would hire some beggars to kill a dragon :)

    No Problem,
    We try our best. Its sometimes difficult that we cant really show yet all the great things we have planned :) So people have to play an unfinished version. But thats part of early access I guess.

    Unless they’re really allied with the dragon and want to send him food… ;) Could also be necromancers in disguise craving for strong new specimen experiment on. Just sayin’!
