Tyhm has a spectacular aura about
Kingdoms should have treasuries. They should also have markets. Preferably linked markets. I know in the Forest capital there's a locked market, this is probably true in all capitals. Given that, set up all the markets so you can see what's in other markets (There's gold plate in Forest market for 100p), and the hosting kingdom gets 10% of the sales. This treasury is in the main castle, and the king can use it to commission walls, guards, etc. - sometimes from NPCs when no players are available/willing. If the castle is lost, the treasury is taken.

Downside - people will raid the castle when everyone's asleep, or right after a crash when only 3 people are online, etc.
