Field notes
The described mint workflow lets players adjust silver-to-copper proportions, coin weight and batch quota, with predicted coin count, bullion use and seigniorage shown before a strike. Historical scenarios include Rome’s third-century denarius and England’s Great Debasement; event cards introduce pressures such as war loans, harvest failures and guild petitions. The page says a Chronicle prints the arithmetic behind each consequence, though the extracted homepage does not confirm app availability.
