Yay!!
This description wasn't very clear to me and I had to read it multiple times to figure out what (I think) you meant. But let me summarize and see if this is what you intended?

Rule 1: You may purchase 1 vessel per arc if that vessel is at your Wealth Tier.

OR

You may purchase a number of lesser vessels per arc as shown by the table. The number of lesser vessels you can purchase per arc depends on the number of Wealth Tiers below your Wealth Tier they are. Put simply, rather than purchasing 1 vessel at your Wealth Tier,

-You can instead opt to purchase 2 vessels if they are 1 tier below you, or
-You can instead opt to purchase 3 vessels if they are 2 tiers below you, or
-You can instead opt to purchase 4 vessels if they are 3 tiers below you.

Rule 2: You may also purchase a number of additional lesser vessels per arc as shown by the table, but only IF the additional vessels are more than four Wealth Tiers below your Wealth Tier.

Rule 3: Any vessels purchased above your Wealth Tier will cost you a number of Wealth Points as shown by the table.
Yes, this. Exactly.
Table
TABLE KEY
Based on your Wealth Tier, you may have any and all of these options per arc.
Based on your Wealth Tier, you may choose one of these options per arc.

extra line here
Yep - exactly that. :) That's so much more clearly put!!
Forgive me if these questions are stupid or obnoxious since I don't know anything about the new price list but:
No no! I like questions, they're important.
Why does a tier 10 ship cost more to someone at tier 1 than it does to someone at tier 5? Shouldn't the price be the same?
No, the price shouldn't be the same. Because... it is assumed that you are putting SOME of your own wealth towards it. So, at Tier 5, I'm taking into account that you have SOME (not enough but some) disposable income because of your Tier.
Also, why do the numbers for purchasing ships with wp follow the patterns they do? For example, tier 1 follows 5 10 15 20 30 40 50 65 85.
Yes. It's 5 WP per Tier for Tiers 1 - 5
10 WP per Tier for Tiers 6 - 8
15 WP per Tier for Tier 9
20 WP per Tier for Tier 10.

Basically, so that the difference in quality overall (because purchasing a ship now means having the equipment too, etc). Does that... make sense? I'm totally chill if it doesn't, let me know. You know me and maths, now, yes :)

Re: Feedback Thread.

So since I am one to get caught up in the details (and take things way too literally at times), I am wondering about the clothing section. Different materials are listed under different garment qualities. Hemp and jute under poor, and so on. You also have descriptions of what dyes, accessories, and so on are available at each quality level - which I love.

But. What if you wanted something like...say a wool nightgown. Wool is considered to be an average quality material. But what if you wanted said nightgown to be dyed multiple colors, or with a rare dye. Maybe with a lining added for extra warmth, fur trim at the bottom, and a really nice/fancy bead work decoration on the chest and wrists. Something like that seems more likely to be of good or even masterwork quality rather than average (which used the competent level of the required skills to make). How would you price that? Would you need to choose a material listed at a higher garment quality since the work going into it is of a higher level? Or is wool available as a material choice in any garment of average quality and higher?

You'd default to the highest Tier needed. Because the wool, in that example, can be used by someone at a higher level of skill. So, if you're wanting any part of it to be masterwork, then masterwork it is.

Re: Feedback Thread.

Makes sense. Thanks! That is probably obvious to a lot of people, but it had me wondering if you had to get an average quality garment if you wanted it made out of wool, and so on. -.-;;;

No worries! Always good to clarify!

I guess I don't understand what you mean by this?

Or wait do you mean like... 85 plus a little, let's say 90wp is the true cost of the tier 10 boat. But it's assumed that the tier 1 person put 5gn into it, and that's why it still costs 85gn?
Pegasus wrote:Yes. It's 5 WP per Tier for Tiers 1 - 5
10 WP per Tier for Tiers 6 - 8
15 WP per Tier for Tier 9
20 WP per Tier for Tier 10.
Yes, this makes sense.

I might have more questions in the New Price List thread once I get down to the Seafaring section, but for now I think I get it!

Yes! This! Does that make maths-sense?

Oh you poor, poor individual. You have become my maths-guru!!
