I definitely got a Baron at 55 population, 60 may be a bit high? --[[User:Nobu|Nobu]] 21:09, 10 April 2010 (UTC) | I definitely got a Baron at 55 population, 60 may be a bit high? --[[User:Nobu|Nobu]] 21:09, 10 April 2010 (UTC) | ||

:::Being that nobles are now defined in the raws, we can use what we know from there, which is 20 pop, 100000 created wealth, and 10000 exported wealth. Other information needs to be tested for. -Commondragon | :::Being that nobles are now defined in the raws, we can use what we know from there, which is 20 pop, 100000 created wealth, and 10000 exported wealth.

Is the appointment of the Baron perhaps linked to the "Becoming the Capital" requirements listed in n -> c? Mine is listing 10000 architecture, 5000 road value, and 7500 offerings as "desired" amounts. I don't see anything about this screen in the wiki, but I am now pushing forward with road construction to see what happens when the targets are met. | Is the appointment of the Baron perhaps linked to the "Becoming the Capital" requirements listed in n -> c?

-- Another works-for-me for the "have caravan leave". More importantly than the me-too: An easy way to get your leader to avoid meetings is to assign them to a lever set to repeat pull. This avoids bad-thoughts from drafting, and allows them to eat/drink/sleep as necessary. --[[User:Kaypy|Kaypy]] 07:24, 30 October 2010 (UTC) | -- Another works-for-me for the "have caravan leave".

Thank you!. But to my larger question: why in the world do I want to promote a hard-working mayor to a lazy-ass noble (if you'll pardon my salty language)? Please tell me I am seeing it wrong... -- [[User:Maunder|Maunder]] 03:11, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | Thank you!.

: [[Fun]]! More specifically, getting a Baron means you'll have a "chief" noble who doesn't change unless he gets killed. This lets you rig up a set of rooms just for that noble, taking advantage of materials preferences, making mandates from him less frequent and demands almost nonexistent. In my case, my baroness ended up becoming mayor, too - which meant even fewer mandates. It's really up to you - do you want to deal with one consistent but demanding noble, or one that changes every year or so? --[[User:DeMatt|DeMatt]] 05:54, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | : [[Fun]]!

: Not only can I not confirm it, I can deny it - my mayor was quite pleased to recommend herself as head of the barony. Didn't have any real criterion for who to go for, at the time, and it turned out she's a good choice, anyways (likes brass and green glass ;P). Might've changed since v31.12, but I don't see why. --[[User:DeMatt|DeMatt]] 20:59, 9 November 2010 (UTC) | : Not only can I not confirm it, I can deny it - my mayor was quite pleased to recommend herself as head of the barony.

:: Yes, I see what happened now. When you're perusing the list of dwarves, those serving various noble roles are listed with their lowercase titles, as "[[chief medical dwarf]]", "[[broker]]", "[[bookkeeper]]". But the [[mayor]]? He's not listed as with the title at all, but instead as his profession! (In my case, I think it was "[[Craftsdwarf]]".) That's why I didn't spot him right away. Wonder if this is considered a bug? -- [[User:Maunder|Maunder]] 04:18, 17 November 2010 (UTC) | :: Yes, I see what happened now.
