Level Up (A5E) A Fix(?) For Rural Stronghold Pricing

[Stalker0]

In terms of the discrepancy, I can understand why the lower values are off just due to the rounding of the acres vs square foot scenario. It’s the upper levels that don’t make sense to me.

A level 1 rural based on the chart can cost 3000 gp max compared to a max of 1k for the building. That makes absolutely no sense, it could have just been 1-2 acres…done and done. The book numbers made it 1-6 acres for even the basic stronghold…why?

Some large Roman plantations were that big. Considering that this is the greatest of strongholds, costing as much as legendary magic items…being the size of a city doesn’t seem at all crazy to me. This is like the once in a kingdom kind of place

Oh its certainly plausible, its just noting that the extra cost is justified because of the size of it.
