Greetings!
In the last news post we wrote about the faction point system, today we'd like to show off faction bonuses.
When a faction's reputation reaches a certain amount, you will receive a buff or debuff from that faction. For example, if your relationship with France was soured, the French will spread rumors about your forge, which will lead to a decrease in prestige every day. If you sabotage relations with the Holy Church, spiteful clerics will ring the bells in the morning to prevent your workers from resting.
However, if your reputation is high enough, you will gain certain preferential treatment. The English may declare a tax holiday in the region and collect taxes less often. If you are friendly with the bandits, they may station a bouncer outside your forge to extort extra cash from customers.
Each faction can influence the game and make Arthur's life a little bit easier or more difficult. It's up to you to decide which one to support!
Respectfully,
The Anvil Saga Team
