Well after a long bloody war, Arwa the Pearled One is now Queen. One slight problem...the quest it still saying it's not complete yet even after I talk with her and yes I had the ingame message saying the rebellion was a success.
Yea I'm using the newest diplomacy, cant remember if I had a NO STRING FOUND script. If I renounce my vassalage I will lose 3 cities, 4 castles and 6 towns lol...privleges of being Arwa's second in the rebellion
As for tax ineffiency, its only 24% which is about 9,000 denairs. I still break even by about 4k. In each stronghold I have 40 Sarranid Guards and 100 Master Archers and my party is usually 14 companions *all super geared up* and 120 Mamlukes.
