Ammend rule “Army of Monkeys” so that the text:
Every Sunday at 0:00 AM, captains must pay their army by paying n squared gold where n is the size of their army. If a captain does not have enough gold to pay off their army, their army size is reduced by one until they have enough gold to pay off their army.
Is changed to:
As a weekly action, Captains may pay 2n+1 gold where n is their Army Size. Every Sunday at 0:00 AM, each Captain who has failed to complete this action during the previous week gets er army size reduced by DICEX where X is er current Army Size at that time. If this happens, that Captain’s Flavor is set to “Bitter”.
And to remove the sentence that reads:
At any time, a captain may reduce the size of their army by any amount, provided it does not go below zero nor become a non-integer value.
Reasoning:This compliments the new proposed changes for Pets. The first change makes the rule more fun, because random = funny. The second one is even more important, because otherwise a Captain would skip payment and stop a revolt within his army that way. By wording it like this, having an balanced army size becomes more strategic.
Any reason you killed the n^2? The whole point in the 2n + 1 cost is thats n^2.
