Not at all. Where did you get that idea? (Edit: Eh, okay, "for anyone"... reformulated a bit in OP).
Each realm building ups the realm buff by +1 each to three different stats, quite simply. Any character on the realm claim gets the buff.

I'm with you, and I'm not really looking to tie them too close together, but for this particular ability it seemed relevant to associate a meaningful cost -- to avoid spamming -- which is also available to nubs -- who are most in need of the ability. Will evaluate.
The ability is intended as a check-yer-privilege to horses. Feel free to let us know how it plays out.

I do also think the rewards seem a bit low in comparison to cost and upkeep and was just about to echo what Astarisk has mentioned, but you have replied to that.

How about having members earn XP for their kingdom, while non members earn XP for whatever kingdom claim they are currently on?

Lovely! Just lovely!
This time I really have nothing to criticize.
I like your new approach to development, when you throw in some new mechanic wich has little impact (realms which do nothing) and then slowly, carefully, add new, more serious features to it.
And it was also smart move regarding horses - you kept their usability in a peaceful life while nerfing the advantage of the mounted player over the lonely wandering forager.
Hmm... maybe just one thing - mounted player should not be able to dismount another player. Otherwise they would both use this Hearh Magic immediately making "mounted vs mounted" combat too seldom.
I will probably verify couple of my accounts tommorrow (monthly budgets, lol) just to support you. Even though when I actively play I use subscription anyway.

We could very well be off on the pricing or the size of the buff, or either, or both. We were unsure what was reasonable.
