every KD on every island is beset by a dragon at all times.
dragons must be paid in order to be kept at bay. they take their wages in GC, or military units.
-dragon 'wages' accumulate each tick.
wages paid in troops add HP to your KD's dragon.
-all dragons start at 0 HP.
wages paid in GC simply keeps them at bay.
wages would be related to KD total acres.
after # ticks without paying total accumulated wages; the dragon will ravage your KD's lands until total accumulated wages are paid.
-paying more than what is due does NOT buy you future ticks, the full wages will accrue each tick, regardless.
every # ticks spent without War will result in an increase to the wages demanded, modifier reset by war.
wages need not be paid during War, as dragons can scavenge the battlefields.
-wages may still be paid in troops during War to increase HP
your dragon may be sent to any target KD, at any time, subject to current relations modifiers.
-once your dragon sets flight, a new dragon immediately takes its place, and if not in war will begin accumulating wages immediately.
a dragon arriving at a target KD will first encounter that KD's dragon.
-their battle will simply be a test of who has more HP, the dragon with more HP survives with HP equal to the difference.
-if the attacking dragon survives it ravages the KD until slain traditionally, at which point a new 'resident' dragon will arrive, just as when you send your own on attack.
an unpaid dragon, or an attacking dragon ravage in the same manner; with the power of all current dragons(until slain, or paid off):
25% Lower Science Efficiency
20% Higher Military Losses in Combat
15% Lower Attack Gains
Reduces Military Effectiveness by 10%
25% Lower Magic Effectiveness
25% Lower Thievery Effectiveness
Reduces Building Efficiency by 25%
10% Lower Income
10% Lower Food Production
Loss of 20% of new draftees
Destroys 3% of Buildings every 6 ticks
WW bonus could include # YR dragon wages exemption.
-you can still invest troops to increase HP, but there is no risk of it turning on you if it is neglected during this window
