Castelli della Gilda influence a castle region around them.[1]

Castle taxes

Castles have direct power over the Nodes that belong to it, but also have soft power across the entire region it belongs to. All Nodes belonging to that region pay fealty to the Castle in the form of taxes paid directly to the Castle. The Monarch sets the rate, and can use those proceeds to upgrade defenses, maintain the Castle’s direct Nodes, or provide buffs and benefits to the citizens of that region, as the magnanimous ruler that you are.[8]

Castelli della Gilda impose a tax on all revenue for the nodes within its region.[6][7]

Castles have the ability to allocate taxes collected from nodes under them toward certain benefits that go back to the node. Or they can be more selfishly governed that treasury more towards the guild that owns it and that obviously is going to have some political implications, because it could- if you're not using it for the benefit of the people in the region they might rise up and help take you out from that that position of owning that castle.[6]Steven Sharif

Economic regions

We want our players to have a reason to explore the wilderness, to travel with purpose, and much of that will be driven by our resource system. Transporting these goods might just be more difficult than gathering them. Our regional market system allows players to participate in creating pocket economies that will reinforce the stability of goods in particular regions. Players will be able to move resources and set up shop in other areas to take advantage of the varied markets. With resources spawning dynamically, certain regions will naturally become important trading hubs for the transportation of goods throughout the world.[15]

Economic regions are static areas defined by geographic points of interest.[16][17][18]

  • Castle regions are larger and encompass multiple economic regions.[16]
  • Nodi are the glue that hold castle and economic regions together in potential synergy or chaos.[19]
    • Node ZOIs are fluid and change their area based on the progression of the node and its neighbors.[16]
  • Castle regions, Economic regions, and Node ZOI (Zones of Influence) can overlap.[4]

The whole map would be under the influence of 1 of 5 castle regions. However, castle regions aren't the only TYPE of region - there are also economic regions, among other things.[17]Sarah Flanagan
