I've been thinking about how a bastion would work in practice and I'd like to create a game with the 2024 rules. I have an idea of how I want this to go.

I have a couple of ideas.

First, the kingdom that the PCs live in is expanding and is offering plots of land under a noble. Alternatively, you inherit a building; it's structurally sound, but a bit of a fixer upper.

These just jumped at me since the new rules moved when property like that would go out to a PC. Old rules would say level 9 minimum and 12 preferred as 12 was considered when your character was a Lord or Lady.

I'm open to critiques and new ideas, hey if you want to play a property mogul owning the titles and deeds to different places in the campaign world. I might be able to get a good game going for you.
