Hey all,

Sorry if this was covered already but I couldnt find it anywhere.  I was wondering about costs of large scale purchases, such as land, manors/castles, construction projects, paying soldiers in an army, ect...  
Any ideas on figuring the costs?

Thanks,
SMB

A couple of links I found, i do not know if they are any good. You could maybe compare prices for item that do exist in the TROS book, and extrapolate other items ' TROS values from there.

I can try to dig up some info.  I have copied down things like wages from different time periods and such.  I have them on a sheet of paper some where.  I couldn't provide references, however.
