40d Talk:Tax collector
I never minted a single coin and still got a Tax Collector in about my 5th year - perhaps the trigger is wealth created or exported? --GameHat
- Moved that from the article, Mr Hat. Anyway, I agree. I never minted a coin, and still got the Tax Collector. Runspotrun 23:34, 18 November 2007 (EST)
My Tax Collector has a [happy] thought "Was happy to have pleased a noble". The Count has a [happy] thought "Was pleased that the tax collection went smoothly". --Another 13:01, 25 November 2007 (EST)

Captain Mayday on the official forums got a tax collector during his Nist Akath story, as far as i know he doesn't have metal for minting coins his created wealth etc was this:
Imported Wealth: 330339 Exported Wealth: 42119 Actual fortress wealth is at 859403
hope this helps in some way --Bullion
I had a tax collector arrive together with the baron, baroness and hammerer, population of 13 due to bronze colossus encounter. Fortress type is city (it doesn't decrease with population loss) Coelocanth 22:38, 2 December 2007 (EST)
I recently got a fort far enough along to get this noble. I certainly had not minted any coins. What seemed to do it was my population passing 100. He arrived, along with the Baron, Consort and Hammerer in a wave that brought my population from the low 90s up to 115.
I think wealth is also required, passing 100 population brought me only the philosopher in said fort. Has anyone got the tax collector without a baron or vice versa? Coelocanth 17:57, 5 December 2007 (EST)
I just got my baron, collector, consort and hammerer. The year is 1064, my population is 100 on the dot (at the note of the arival of the nobles)
I have:
388732 imported wealth 67325 exported wealth 506478 created wealth 4336 weapons 45840 armor and garb 65710 furniture 227955 other objects 74200 architecture 37877 Displayed 50560 held/worn.
-ellipsis (not sure how to fancy up a signature in here)
It seems that having 100 population is a major factor in getting the economy.
I just got the tax collector with a couple of other nobles, its 1054 Mid-Spring. My pop is 99 now.
Created wealth: 763,020 Imported Wealth: 221,438 Exported Wealth: 21,747

I just got a tax collector, hammerer, count (and consort), and philosopher. It is Mid-Spring of 1058. My Created Wealth = 1431886, Exported = 29462, Imported = 388973. Population = 124 after the migration wave that included the nobles (111 before migration wave). Frond 22:05, 30 January 2008 (EST)
I just got the Tax Collector, Hammerer and Baroness in the year 1056, Mid-Spring Population: 89 Created Wealth: 398852 Imported Wealth 195743 Exported Wealth: 16396 --Gibbonofdoom 10:21, 12 February 2008 (EST)
Another data point. I just got a tax collector, hammerer, and baroness on 12th Slate, 1055, Mid-Spring. Population: 142 Created Wealth: 747376 Imported Wealth: 476282 Exported Wealth: 11560 —MightyMooquack 00:39, 14 April 2008 (EDT)
I added a table above. If you've seen a tax collector appear at lower values, please update. (Maybe this should be on the main page?) --Strangething 18:33, 17 June 2008 (EDT)
I got the Tax Collector, Hammerer, Baron and Baroness Consort at population 86. (But lots of wealth). --AlexChurchill 11:51, 10 July 2008 (EDT)
Has anyone seen the Tax Collector arrive separately from the Baron? I think the Baron, Tax Collector, and Hammerer all have the same conditions. --Strangething 18:18, 8 July 2008 (EDT)
Labors
What labors will the Tax Collector perform? The first thing my newly-arrived Tax Collector did was "Fill Pond"! Perhaps he's bored because I turned the economy off? -- Raumkraut 14:21, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
- "Fill Pond" is a job that any dwarf will do, no matter what labors they have enabled. Other jobs like that are Haul Item to Depot and Pull Lever. Bouchart 21:58, 5 April 2008 (EDT)
Fort needs to be a barony?
I thought that the Tax Collector came at the same time as a Baron, therefore Fort Becomes a Barony on arrival of Tax Collector with Baron. Shardok 06:15, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
- Well, my logic there is that the "promoted to barony" message always comes first. But from my experience, yes, you get both nobles always at the same time. Do players ever get a baron without tax collector or the other way round? We might just as well copy all the conditions from baron over here. --Birthright 09:36, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
