Cl ick to Ca p t ain:
Fjordlanders Unite! Skrimskraw. For the Fjord! etc. etc. I am also really excited about the Baronies and how they're going to operate within the world, though the eco/political goal wasn't reached on the Kickstarter, I'm sure we can make something happen at least within the community once it's released.

Skrimskraw:

thats the thing, Eric told me they are working out how the baronies would work in the world.

If you have a feudal system it would be tied to strong religious roots, where the king is granted the divine right to rule by the "church" and the church is granted power the other way around.

In the middleages of Europe there was crusades against the holy lands, which by a far stretch was purely religious. cross faction trade is not a big thing in feudal states, where money that goes out of the state is a long term loss. Wealth is gained by war and peacemaking. --> youd need something very lucrative and rare for a lord to trade with you, that he cannot gain in any other way.

common trading is led by a class of traders, who is controlled by the kings rule as to what, where and when they can trade. and especially with whom.

Lord Dick Tim:
Could also take the form of a constitutional monarchy, where the Nobility act more as Barons, the King keeping economic control through treaties and trade.  With a large enough population it could be a "rule the mob rule Rome" scenario, their power entrenched in growing corporate markets.

Gambrill:
Daneth Gloamstrider. Leader of a Heavily armed Bandit group station in the Fjords. Becomes a mercenary group later an undisclosed nation that is under threat by the merchant guild. Slowly his morality will become better and is commendated by the undisclosed nation and is welcomed with open arms as a hero :3

Lord Dick Tim:
So like a pirate gone privateer gone national hero?  A few of those seeded into the world would be nice.  Each nation could have a host of different heroes or unique people, such as the captains of the various Boss ships that will be rolled out eventually.
