Oh yeah, investments. The general rate of interest across the Bronze / Early Iron Ancient Near East appears to have been 20%. A specific 'new Sumerian' deal is at a very generous 8.5%, while a specific Neo-Assyrian one is at a hefty 3.3% per month. I can only find evidence for Simple interest rates, not Compound. If you want a wider group of pricing structures, although from the later Iron and an imposed pattern that brought the Roman Empire to the brink of total collapse, have a look at Diocletian's 'Price Edict'. 😩

I am afraid that it involves research if you want to construct a price system that in any way parallels the RW. House rental varies between 1.5 and 4 silver shekels per year (always strikes me as astoundingly reasonable) and the only price I can find for house purchase was 5 talents and 30 mina of lead! That computes to around 20,000 bolgs. Land purchase varies between 1 and 3 shekels depending upon distance from the settlement.

Only those my triffid masters permit me to use🥦

As far as I can tell the (much-debated by epidemiologists) lethality rate that is generally accepted for measles is around 25%. While Rhazes regarded it as worse than smallpox, he doesn't specify how it is worse. There are no grounds to assume that he is referring to the death rate.

So be calm, and heed Qizilbashwoman's wise counsel. As I said, I bow in her direction so I shall not otherwise respond.

Yep, that is your choice, precisely. To assert that it is therefore true is sloppy science. Anyway, I bow to the Qizilbashwoman. Unfortunately I cannot find a rolled up newspaper sufficient to swat a VW.

Oddly enough, supposedly scientific atheists have no monopoly on truth either. They aren't scientific either since they have no way of testing their atheistic hypothesis. 😇

I am sure the whole community will be thinking of/praying for you

Dear God, I hope you meant Polyandry. My mind is teaming with images I can't dispell😭😧

As a Helering I am available for modelling, but the SAN test would be formidable for any viewers

I am a Christian who has played alongside Muslims, Zoroastrians, Jews, British and Lithuanian pagans, agnostics and a variety of atheists. People, really, and none out to dominate or condemn anyone else! 😁😎

Just Google 'shoggoth on the roof'.

Hodgson offers a very playable universe, with the imminent likelihood of utter catastrophe. Very cool👹

Burn the heretic..... 🤪

Oh yeah, and may God preserve us from fanatic evangelical atheists 😇

Unfortunately, Derleth had trouble coping with Lovecraft's vision of pure cosmic horror. I think Stross put it best with the idea that Bob knows his god is coming back, so he's waiting with a loaded shotgun. Lovecraft's universe has neither hope nor redemption.

Try it the other way around - since they know their religion makes them the good guys, how should they behave.

It is one of the Stafford Library texts, the history of Dara Happa and, more generally Peloria, through a Lunar lens. Along with the Entekosiad and the Glorious Reascent of Yelm it forms a tremendous source for that region.

Fortunate Succession has an indication of the different historical Pelorian forms of Illumination.

You have my deepest sympathy. Despite being an ordained minister in a Christian church I have been accused of being a demon-worshipper, due to RPGs.

Kill 'em and have an early night!

I have always thought that an opportunity exists to play an emancipated and empowered Rufelzan woman subverting your uptight trad Dara Happan family, or a Nathan trying to bring Balance to them.

Nothing, nothing at all! Have some more blood beer while I move slowly and carefully away from your axe edge.... 😩

In terms of importance, yes, cult members, less likely given her attitude.
