I´m loving the improved workshops for ~23k denars in 1.8.0:
just edited a screenshot.So what would you suggest?
just having the raw ressources at the town isnt a secure promise that the workshop is running good. f.e. sanala is having one silver ressource very far away and it goes off. you also need to check if there are two workshops of the same kind in a town. i saw that a lot in 1.8.0So what would you suggest?
Epicrotea has iron, Lycaron has wool, what´s the problem with those workshops there?
In Phycaon was a pottery which also didn´t do much and that´s why I changed it to a brewery which at least worked in someway before 1.8.0.
i wouldnt say so but you do you. if you actually use your brain and/or give it some tries you will figure out how it works. you can also spice it up with a caravan leader. iam sorry that there isnt any shiny attention mark to guide you through the decissions you have to make in the game, but dont give up my sweet little snowflake! i have a running economy with the workshops and i can do whatever i want in the game thanks to that. i dont need to rely on fighting and you dont have to aswell! i believe in you!Ah alright, thanks.
So I just go back to endless fighting to earn money instead of wasting time trying to find the perfect place for a workshop that´ll make me like ~300 denars in the best case while I could make like 10k denars in 5min fighting.

you are totally right, the workshop income is only covering your money as long as you dont need to spend a lot. as long as we are talking about early game, you can do whatever you want. of course you need to make sure that your income is comming from somewhere else once you start dealing with the factions. in the mid/late game you own towns to get your coin. not more than 5 are necessary to overcome multiple tribute payments. i payed 4k denars of tribute to two factions and still got 10k daily out of the towns. that is giving me the freedom to use the loot to share experience to fresh troops i need to upgrade.There is no way you can do whatever you want just making 1500 on your workshops. Even if you are making another 1000 with your caravans that is still chump change. I am assuming you are also trading, but that is all well and good as long as you aren't a noble I guess. Once you start getting involved in wars and such the money drops quick without selling loot from battles. In the end, battles are the only real way to earn a lot of money in the game.
no i wouldnt have seen that comming. i dont play as a merc very often just because of the things that happened to you. i like to have as much control as possible inside of the game. being a merc is the exact counterpart to me.I´ve also lost just 45k because my kingdom (I´m just a merc) declared war on the the western empire, I guess you would have seen this coming before it happend and never bought workshops there.
But no worries, I just made about 20k in my last 4 fights in 10 minutes so my economy is still working. You see, I´m a pro Bannerlord player myself.
it seriously isnt that much as you might think it is, but yes, you need to have an eye on it. once they are running it's fine. i understand it's not everyones taste and as i said, it is clearly underwhelming right now. once iam done testing i might can give you a list with workshops you can blindly go with just to check it out, or maybe flesson is having one someday aswell. all good.I understood it already before, too make them somehow "work" you have to play your game around them. Not my business.

Conclusion:
Not really worth it, build them when you have more than enough money (so build them when you don´t really need them anymore, like caravans) but don´t rely on them in any way. Just fight battles for denars as before.
TW (Duh) said something about improving them more (upgrades when?), maybe then they´re worth it.
oh my sweet summerchild. surely there is no value on a 70 denar smithIt´s fine if you don´t understand value.

tell me more about understanding values when you finally got a working workshop in early game. its alright tho you dont have to use them. just have a good time. i know because i tested both and having a running daily economy is less stressful as you dont HAVE to go into fights and is giving you the time to focus on other parts of the game. it's more freedom.
to me it is actually a better overall experience, even tho its probably not the most effective. that still would be trading until you can barter settlements btw. note that not every player wants to go your way and that there is more than one way to do it. seing 1500denars + constant before ct 4 daily later on is pretty warming to a lot of guys. they can smith and still get their 10k after 1 minute of waiting in a town. maybe no value for you. you dont need that. totally fine.
sorry dude selling an opinion as a fact without even getting into the topic is just obnoxious. nobody really wants to deal with that bias, except you.
anyway enjoy your time and have a great weekend!
