Title : Clans: castles, Curia Regis and raids
----------------------------------------
The clan system has been finished! See 'help clans' (or 'clans show') for
the full details.

DONATIONS AND THE CURIA REGIS
- In your castle treasury: 'castle donate <amount>' to give coins to your
clan.
- The Curia Regis is your clan's council: its four most generous donors
who have donated or visited the castle in the last 30 days. 'castle
council' shows who they are.
- Only the Curia Regis can spend the treasury.

CASTLE UPGRADES (up to level 10 each, paid from the treasury)
- Castle: your clan's bonusesget stronger.
- Portcullis: your castle guards are tougher.
- Treasury: a Call to Arms counts for more.
- Throne: a Call to Arms can be called sooner.
- Guardrooms: more guard rooms between the gate and the hall.
'castle status' shows your castle, its treasury and upgrade costs.

GUARDS
- 'castle guards', 'castle hire guard' (up to three per room) and 'castle
train guard'.
- Guards stop outsiders getting further into your castle, and return after
they're killed.

TROPHY ROOM AND RAMPART
- Trophy room: 'read records' for your castle, raid wins, council and
recent history.
- Rampart: 'survey' the guard rooms below. During a raid you can 'pour
pitch' on raiders.

RAIDS
- Every Saturday 19:00-21:00 (game time) the castles are open to raids.
- Fight through a rival castle to its throne room and 'claim throne' for
your clan.
- The clan with the most claims wins 5% bonus experience for the following
week.

OTHER CHAGES
- A Call to Arms now also helps players without a clan, at half strength
(except during a raid).
- Free clan abandons now actually remove you from your clan.
- 'castle status' showed the clan balance and total donated the wrong way
round.
- The Explorer Call to Arms works for players who already have a Berzerker
frenzy.
- 'initiate' accepts amounts with commas, and no longer takes your coins
if someone else called a Call to Arms first.

Please bug anything that doesn't work as described!
