Re: Building Strongholds
The blacksmith builds his own forge until very recently and maybe still a lot of the time.

Okay, shape earth at 100 cubic yards or shape stone at 50 cubic yards per ceremonial casting, 45 (effective) castings per day. 10,000 cubic yards of stone facing, 25,000 cubic yards of earth filling. 200 castings of Shape Stone brings up the walls. Another 250 castings of Shape Earth fill them. Total time: 9 days. Work-crew cost: 1 wizard-architect $4,000/month 100 cultists: $400/month each 6 guards to dissuade hostile onlookers: $750/month each. $48500/month, and you need them for half of it, so your castle costs $24,500. Nice.

Re: Building Strongholds
In High-Tech, workshops cost 25x as much as a portable tool kit and weigh 100x as much. I'd just use that: $41K, 11750 lbs.

Or you could be the lord of some castle deciding that he wants a smithy in his castle, in which case he would be building and owning the smithy, possibly building it to his first smith's specifications. |
