Well, I was told that a cow had changed to 20, but I admit I can't find WHERE that was said - if Andrew Graham is reading this, I believe you told me, can you point it out? If it IS still 15, everything gets shifted up one row (except the sample items), and stuff above (less valuable than) a single cow can be recosted to neater figures. This would put horses back to 5W too, as we know a horse = 4 cows (and an ox = 1.5 cows, accounting for the nasty numbers in that column).

<etc.>
Getting a bit obsessed by minutiae, I think, these are meant to be guideline brackets, not exact figures! Anyway, you're right, the values under 1 cow are rounded a bit funny, as I had to stretch things to get a pig to equal 5. If cows are still 15, that'll be easy to solve.

The wereguilds are NOT exact, the exact figure is given in cows. The wereguild is WITHIN the listed bracket, to the nearest 5 points. That 320 lunars is for 16 cows, not 10.

No, and I agree it's a bit dodgy below 1 cow. Again, that'll be better if I'm wrong and 1 cow = 15.
