Well, in order to build upgrades on your shire, the king will need to transfer silver to your shire from the nation chest. Then when you go to your "shire" menu in place of the emptiness under the "buy" column.. a "BUILD" button will appear.

Usually when they do so what to build will be told to you if you don't know already what needs to be built.

Well okay, but can I see how much money is already in the treasury of my shire?

Also, what are those "ranking points" and how do you get them?

Yes, you can. Go to My Nation and scroll down untill you will see the list of the shires that you nation owns. Look for yours and you will see how much silver you have in it, if you have any.

And for the rank-poinst. Honestly, I dont know. I think people are "ranking" you so you get ranking points; still, its just a thought.

Wow, 6 days later^^

I am no certain, but I think as count he cannot see how much silver is deployed on his shire, but he may see if he is able to start any buildings at his shire, the upgrades costing too much do have no button to built

But to get on the more (or less) interesting point of ranking-points:

They are "split" in appraisal, Duel, Turney and Battlepoints.

appraisal: You may give your "vote" to up to three different Knights same time, you are able to find a full list on "Knights -> ranking-list" (the three boxes on top). So lets use Lysander as leader of the ranking for example, he has by now three of it, so there are three Knights trusting in him and giving him their "vote".
This is only influencing the ranking, nothing else.

Duel: You will gain Duel-Points by winning a duel over 100 (or more) VP.

Turney: You will gain Turney Points in Turneys, one for melee, one for each round you are able to go in "duel" discipline and same in joust, the ranking-list shows the sum of them.

Battles: Little more difficult since not every "Battle" on the Reports are real "Battles", e.g. conquering a shire from the free peasants is certainly no battle (are only granted if there is an "Owner". And the armies shouldn't be too much away of each other in number... which has nothing much to do with strength as we know

Quests and Opponents beaten in battle do have no influence on the ranking.

So here we go, each "class" has a number of 200 Ranking-Points to give to the FIRST in each category, Gerard de Saint Omer has 13 appraisal points, these are 100 of his 209 Ranking-Points. Second place is split in between Rhodry, Jjah Virillis and Arn de Gothia, here it is getting "tricky" since I am no certain about the calculation.
Formula should be about: 200/13*10 = 153,8, so each of this three ones will gain 153 (,8) points for ranking.

200 = maximum of ranking points in each class
13 = best players sum
10 = sum the player has you want to calculate

Same with Duel, Turney and Battle-Points.

Least for my Jessica it works, here as example:

Jessica has 5 appraisal points: 200/13*5 = 76,9
Jessica has 30 Duel-Points, best is Lysander with 126. 200/126*30 = 47,6
Jessica has 0 Turney-Points, well, each multiplication by zero is zero, so 200/88 (of Klasikas Kobrietis) * 0 = 0
Last but not least 1 Battle-Point, Beor Baldrand is best with 24 so we have 200/24*1 = 8,3

Summing all up will be: 76.9 + 47,6 + 8,3 = 132,8
rounded down to 132 Ranking-Points

So this is how the ranking points are calculated. Thank you Jessica

Thanks for the information. This means that i will never have ranking points, lol. Thank you for the information.

We don't have such things in my nation, but what the heck, I'll ask anyway. Quests are something that a Baron makes that you can do for a reward? Can I give myself a quest? And what sorts of things do you do for a quest? I've had no luck with challenging for duels and there are no tourneys, so....

How do I know which weapon is the special one available in my Kingdom but not elsewhere?

See this list, especially the bottom part.

To find it through the menus on the left:

Trade -> Weapons

Then click at the top of the screen there is "weapons overview" clicking it will bring up a list of all the weapons available to which nations (and also nation specific projectiles) - handy if you are looking for a certain type of weapon which your nation may not be able to produce.

To save you time i can tell you for Iceland it is Viking Axe, and Throwing Axes.

Thanks guys. Now it's time for me to dress like a viking and go party. I hope they have mead....
