War chest

A war chest is the required amount of PoE a flag must pay in order to declare a blockade on an island. The amount is based on the size of the island and the island's population, if any.


 * For outpost islands, the war chest is at least 25,000 PoE.
 * For medium islands, the war chest is at least 75,000 PoE.
 * For large islands, the war chest is at least 125,000 PoE.

If the defenders of a colonized island win the blockade, they receive 25 percent of the war chest. The PoE is placed directly into the fort or palace coffers.
