Evading Taxes??

[Torin]

If a sacred unit´s upkeep it´s half as it would be if not sacred.
What if I Equip my expensive, non-sacred mage with a shroud of the battlesaint (or whatever is called the tunic that gives the blessed state to a commander) to him?
would I have to pay half upkeep then?

If a unit is sacred, it is taxed at half upkeep.

A shroud makes your unit blessed, not sacred (unless you put the shroud on your pretender, then it does neither -- it's just some pretty lame armour).

Being blessed has no effect on taxes. So you'll still pay full upkeep.

I'm not sure if "blessed" counts as "sacred" for the purpose of halving the upkeep... It should be easy to test, but I don't have access to Dominions here in the army.

ill do it tonight

I use shrouds very often and it works like vfb said. It doesn't effect the upkeep, thats approved http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif.

Remember that Bogus deals harshly with anyone trying to evade taxes !

"Bogus and his fellow adventurers decided to punish you for not paying full salary to his nephew the troll king"

That's so kewl. Especially if you know who Bogus is and where he came from.
