Aid
This is where you send help to one of your kingdom (kd) mates when he has requested it, usually in the forums there will be a thread called aid where aid requests are made.
The resources you can send are limited to soldiers, gold coins (gc's), runes and bushels (food).
You will be frowned upon by your kd mates if you send aid to anyone that hasnt requested it or above the amount requested.
Each resource that you send has a gold coin value and the sending province will gain a trade balance (tb) surplus while the recieving province will gain a trade balance (tb) defecit, a bit like an overdraft!
If the trade balance deficit gets to high then any subsequent aid that province recieves will be taxed, a bit like my bank when my overdraft gets too high!
You may also choose to block all incoming aid at the click of a button but remember to unblock it if you ask for aid!
