After reading all the posts on the first 5 pages, scrolling through the "hit" search topics, and reading all the FAQs, I'm still confused about how prosperity/wealth works in this mod: is the prosperity of a city or village directly tied to its factions nobles' loyalty? What I mean to say is, how does the game figure out whether or not a village or city is prosperous? Because I've traded with villages all the time, and their poverty is never combated. I have a loyalty rating of about 62+ with a particular village and their prosperity is still "Unbearable" (or something to that effect). In other words, do I need to increase the "loyalty" of each and every (individual) village to, say, 80-99 to get them out of poverty? If so, this is only done through "elder quests" correct?
Sorry for the mundane not-so-mind-boggling question, but I really want my Lords to start recruiting better troops given we're at war with a country (The Danish) that owns 1/3rd of the map around us (the Teutonic Order). This is, of course, assuming that the lords always recruit using the lance system, even if we chose the traditional recruitment system. Thanks in advance for any help.
Absolutely love the mod, even if the lords themselves are semi incompetent nimwits on the campaign map.
Also, I eliminated a faction (the Danish) by capturing (and losing some to other factions) all of their fiefs; however, their nobles are still locked away in my dungeon despite their faction's destruction. What happens if I release the nobles? Do they assume their former (now destroyed) kingdom's banner and troll my people? Or do they just disappear? Or do they join the rebel faction/some other faction? Thanks again.
