oooh very cool
The system looks very cool too, something about being able to buy NPCs or NPC groups and choosing when and where they spawn around the outpost?

Sounds not bad indeed.
I hope with pay them per day they spoke about ig days not Rl days because 4k/troup/rl day would be just a joke. Selling 1 item in an acceptable level brings more than this would cost. In this way 1 guild could afford a handful outposts

With the current strength of the players you'll need 100's of NPC's to successfully defend your outpost, wich makes 4k/npc pretty expencive

Using some food (mission mats) will maybe be an beter idea. Or some combination.

If you can buy guards at any time and get 24 hours notice of attack then you only buy them when they are needed: Very cheap. Then sack them afterwards. Good job they don't have a guardsmans union.

I think someone said that there is a delay between hiring guards and having them turn up for work. Presumably this delay will be longer than the notice given when declaring war.

nm, watchit again, dont' know where I got that idea from
I wish that you can heal your npcs soldiers, or cast other buff type of spells like increase strength, agility, regen rate, etc (the auras).
