In “The Plan”, replace “2DICE5” (the outcome of Cash/Scouting) with “DICE5”, and “1DICE3” (the outcome of Standard) with “DICE2”.
Stuff/Eavesdropping currently adds an average of 4.125 Florins’ worth of content to a Haul, at a cost of 3 Florins/Notoriety. Cash/Scouting adds an average of 6 Florins for 2 cost. Seems like that should be a bit lower, particularly when Florins are less interesting to distribute and don’t require fencing.
And since a lower payout won’t be very much above the DICE3 baseline for just turning up, maybe we should drop that to DICE2.
Clucky: he/him
Your math is incorrect here because it misses the opportunity cost of doing a standard action, which still on average adds 2 to the pot. So its really only adding an average of 4 to the group for a cost of 2 from the self. Hope is you get repaid with a bit of what else you added to the group, but no guarantee that happens.
Your change would make it so that it only adds a baseline of 1.5, at the cost of 2 from the self. So there is no reason to do this at all.
Overall I think it would be good to see how the Notoriety change effects moves. If needed, we can drop the 2DICE5 to 2DICE4, but think this approach is overkill
