Well, I see your point, but it is also way cheaper than any other authors Patreon, so it somehow balances out? At least to me, it does.

I still want a Stat list of various bronze and silver classes

meh

no be fair, we never had that much delving do begin with

Indy

I love the content so much. I just have to cancel my subscription because so little material to justify paying this sadly.

Dacist

I love chapters like this!

Andy Coppock

Who says that Vatreece was less than 250 years old?

Cirvante

Agreed. The story is called “Delve” not “Tycoon”

Typo: "not created through production goods," Should be 'through the production of goods' or 'through producing goods'.

Cirvante

I couldn't agree more! I was worried we'd have to wait for dedicated grannybrain chapters to get more of our grouchy gamgams.

JC Silver

Is this story going to shift back towards delving at some point? I personally find the business building chapters less exciting.

MRob

So my bad, reading to fast and not paying much attention on these details on the Bank system thingy i guess

Those were board members presidents are below them on the hierarchy there are thousands of presidents

Kain

No. Those are the board members. The presidents are different and i believe they are like brach owners.

Christian Basso

Keep in mind that we've already seen that two out of the three Plats were dying of old age at an age less than 250. So even if every member of the Board is Gold, they are unlikely to be immortal and will die of old age eventually. That will create a slow turn over on it's own, even assuming they allow hereditary transfer.

MagusZanin

Think of it as a kind of corporate feudalism. The Presidents are the individual Barons that pay tribute to the Dukes (the Board) and then you have the Kings at the top. Then you have the Enforcers as nonlanded Knights to enforce the governing body's will.

MagusZanin

Presidents and the Board are not the same ranks. Every member of the 10 Slot Board has multiple "Presidents" under them that run various enterprises.

MagusZanin

" I’m not about to list out every President, so don’t ask." Huhu, did she not do that exactly each time for the different 'type' of them when explained them?

Zarik0

I feel like she's probably not there quite yet, but I imagine her getting there extremely quickly 🤣

Kyle

Rain still very naive in realpolitick. Don't let your new puppet in on your goals/values, its just another handle on you for them to grasp hold of.

LaughingCoyote

"Competent" by nepotistic standards. Luna has not shown much competence so far.

LaughingCoyote

Fixed, thanks!

SenescentSoul

I enjoyed how Reece sits on the couch and gives real time comments. Like a couch warrior only that she actually knows stuff. Or maybe a movie night with friends with actual political implications? Fun contrast. Especially if I imagine her with snacks and a huge cup with a drinking straw yelling at the tv.

WannaBeATree

Uplift didn't really start until they brought in the airship, which seems a bit on the nose. ;)

Monadologist

Shhhhh! They'd have to "Delve" to do that. I don't see it happening.

Eidetic Eidolon

There are people not in the top 10 who apparently control more assets than 3 goldships. It functions, amusingly enough, as a deterrent to the grow, grow, grow philosophy of capitalism. Which as we've seen tends to lead to monopolies.

meh

Thanks for the chapter, always a pleasure.

Doodlyboy15

Putting the ability to control more than one major asset behind already being in the top ten is a transparent attempt to keep the positions at the top. Any change in the board is probably bloody.

Daniel Powell

Thanks for the chapter.

Joshua Little

Luna is a greedy banker but the fact he was able to make it to 4 and maintain that means he is competent. Though anyone with a rank is to one degree or another. But he is also in a weak position where he is most likely to listen. As long as he gets filthy rich, he should be able to tolerate Rain’s idealism. Even if he plans some shady stuff, Ascension just needs to grow enough where they cannot be stomped. Getting 8 gold plates (a full team) would be a nice start.

Conor McGroarty

Great chapter!

ZCochraine!%

"Board Investors", in the first recap/definition of who the major players are, should be "Board Exploiters". Also, while I love the world building and exposition that the info dumps give us, I hope they won't supercede the new content that actual chapters give us

Gardor

Board Investors: Jien ... i think these are exploiters but reece said the ideas were similar
