Too many high tier troops draining it?

No because it’s not upkeep. My upkeep is high, 950, but I had like 20 fiefs and a bunch of necromancers and perks balancing that out.

Currently I’m getting hit with -1.4 billion in Dark Tribute… it used to be +3k

Fiefs giving you dark tribute is bugged, they give way more then they should.

I don’t know how much it is, but I think it’d be cool if the amount of dark tribute was linked to the prosperity of the town. Also that there should be a description of what dark tribute is in the manual. Idk how much they give now, but I think a fief with 3,500+ prosperity giving 200~ dark tribute a day would be fair.

Dark tribute is given depending on how many fiefs you personally own, and how many the faction you are part of owns.

Its 2 for castle, 3 for town, doubled if owned by the player.


200 is far too much for a single fief. Its meant to limit your ability to field tier 9 units, that wont change.

Got you, honestly that does make way more sense, 200 is too much, but I think 6 for owning a town isn’t enough. That means my reward for owning a town is that I can hold onto 1 black grail knight. Idk maybe 10-12 but it’s not my mod.

Just wanted to say I went back a few saves before my dark tribute started to permanently go negative and what I think is happening is that each day the amount of dark tribute is multiplying for an inexplicable reason. When I started playing I was making 3k dark tribute, an hours later it’s at 4 billion… in short she’s bugged, and I am looking forward to this patch a lot

We will definitely have to fine tune the upkeep of custom resources yeah, we know its not optimal atm, but we dont want to be like vanilla either where you just max out everything

I don’t know if this information helps you at all, but the multiplier is based off the number of fiefs I personally own (not the kingdom as a whole) and I seem to stay in the positives so long as I have 28 fiefs or less.
