Annuity payouts #2

Open Rob-Fletcher opened 8 years ago

Real tontines have an annuity payout. This is one of the reasons people enter tontines as an investment strategy. Although this wouldnt be necessary to put in this game we could try to do something with this. Main thing is that I dont want to make the mechanics too complicated so we cant go too wild with this.

One idea (that we would have to be careful to implement simply) is that the annuity gets paid out at intervals in the game in the form of 'game money'. You could then use this money to buy things in the game. Get out of death, some sort of passive skill, etc.

Being able to purchase some in game abilities could be real interesting, but we'd have to have a good stable to choose from to keep things interesting.
