Spice up RVR with Upkeep runs

[Bragan Benigaris]

From time to time there is a certain stalemate in the RVR, the most pretious ports are in strong hands and one of the powerhouses zerged the other nations down. There is a certain amount of upkeep for all the captured ports, but otherwise it's quiet.

Why not use the Flag/War Supplies mechanics for the upkeep? The first week after the conquest, the port belongs to the conquerer, for every week after the first one the holding clan has to deliver for example a flag from the county capital to the port, to legally keep the government for the port.

Another flavour would be the delivery of a "tax" item from the port to the nations capitol (as tax for the nations goverment, e.g. the british crown). This "treasure fleets" would be announced server wide like the old flags or the sunken treasure fleets and would provide some nice hunting battle.
