I wanted to let you know how things are coming along with the "play by post" game I am designing for your businesses, and get your feedback on the premise.
So far I have figured out how to work in your businesses, lairs, employees, herd, and resources. If you can think of anything else I might be able to work in, please let me know. I started out with my focus being on business management, so I took in to consideration operating costs, employees, and business expansion. Creating products takes "labor hours" which are created by your employees at a rate of 40 per week. However, each employee has a monthly wage that needs to be paid, with more skilled employees requiring more pay. Employees can be upgraded and specialized by by paying for them to get trained. Facilities can also be upgraded with better production equipment, more efficient processes, and more room to facilitate more workers and machinery.
Your lair will be run in a similar manner, with available upgrades including things like training rooms, libraries, and more bedrooms for your waitstaff and herd. You have the option to purchase or build additional businesses and lairs, and are encouraged to do so. Various types of insurance will also be available for your holdings from the weekly events that will take place on your properties.
So, what do you think? Does this sound like it will be fun? Will it add to our chronicle, or just be a burden for everyone between sessions?
