Default Re: Another idea that struck me while writing an A

Nah, nah, nah. I didn't say "spread order", I said decrease some unrest in his current province per turn. That's not the same thing by any margin. In fact, not only is it completely contrary in spirit to what I was proposing, I even made a statement regarding that specific concern.

"Even if it's a god who is evil and has turmoil scales, he is still among his fanatical worshippers, and he has the power to break their [rebellion] better than a mortal army could."

If I were proposing that a god of turmoil ought to spread order, I'd be a real idiot, now wouldn't I? Please don't change my words, or people will not even know how to discuss my idea!

Also, 10% more taxes in the same province would not, in spirit, be what I was proposing. I didn't say a god walks into a province and all of a sudden the tax collecters work harder (although that might happen too, hehe). I said when a god walks into a proviince, the trouble makers both quake in fear and fall down in worship, and begin to dissipate. It's not the monetary effect that matters, but the little thematic detail. I think it's the kind of detail that would fit the personality of the game. Is that any clearer? I do not always communicate my ideas very well.
