Ruling Game Menu

The Ruling Minigame is an entirely menu-driven system.  You have a box on the bottom of the screen that displays the people's current situation.  The menu appears to the left and has the various choices.  

First, I'll explain the status screen:

  • People- This is the status of the People of your country.  It ranges from Worst to Best.  At Worst, you may not tax your people at all!  The more you tax people, the lower their status becomes.  The people's status will recover towards Average in time, albeit a long time...  Once their status reaches Best, I would not recommend taxing them ever again!

  • Assets- This describes the over-all economy of your country.  It rangest from Lacking to Perfect.  The higher your assets are, the more money you will receive from taxing.

  • Prestige- This describes how other countries see you.  Prestige is improved through both battles and Diplomacy.

  • G left- This is pretty much self-explanatory.  The amount of money left in your treasury.

Now comes the various menus:

  • Military- The Military menu controls both the War Game, and your Blacksmith production.
