I don't have any objeciton to the currency's existence but saying it's worth any amount of KS is kind of a stretch since nobody in Yamatai accepts them especially not currency exchanges.
If the currency is going to end up making a hyper-inflating DA exchange with USO, then no thanks. I do not intend for Nepleslia to accept conversions or do business with those who bankroll your currency. I would much more prefer we reach a middleground and you simply make 2 Arkmarks worth 1 DA. This way, you can at least trade with Nepleslia if you want to acquire a currency Yamatai WILL accept and allow your players easy access ICly to trade with.1 AM:15 DA does not equal 2 AM:1 DA, @Zack.
I'm not a fan of the attempt to basically go "well, we won't make a ton of it so it's super valuable" when in reality there's really not much reason for either superpowers to trade with you. This might work if you were trying to put your currency to a smaller nation closer in-scale and military power or with a closer trade value, but the economic promise of USO doesn't make enough sense for me to open-up a currency trade that would make all but the richest Nepleslians able to really do business with or in USO.
I have to care for my faction, too. If the currency won't be favorable, then Nepleslia will outlaw trade with USO and not accept any amount of your currency. If you really care for RP, then I recommend you at least meet me halfway and take the very generous rate that guarantees trade versus put yourself in a corner and isolate the currency.
