Nicely done. Very well written with just the right historical flair and practicality.

I wish NWN had a cooler currency system supporting multiple denominations... there are a few custom things out there but they're not very seamless (due to limitations in the engine.

I haven't read anything recently about nwn2 currency prospects, but I think I read sometime some time ago that mentioned that there wouldn't be any substantial changes from the nwn1 system.

I like the multiple denomination systems. Especially the "more than one denomination within multiple standards of regional currency." Alas.

Very true, very true. I've played that LARGE sums of gold are signed off on papers from the banks... But are there any standards for nongold currency?

Captain Garent of Hlint: *Slowly backs away, with a strange expression on his face.*


Random Hlint guy: *Continues sobbing on the floor, clutching his single gold coin with a fearful, trembling hand in despair...*

...Why do the card game players call the coin 'jink'?

[lonnarin]

Because they are largely planar, and know cards from Sigil that would make your head spin.  Tom though... he could take them all AND their lunchmoney!

Miss that kid.
