ROB RUN Taxes: Residents, Settlements and Districts
Trace the official ROB RUN tax relationships from residents to settlement owners and controlling clans, with clear limits on rates and collection details.

Kefir describes a chain of income tied to property and territorial control: settlement owners receive taxes from resident money laundering and Black Market purchases; district-controlling clans receive a cut of settlement-owner taxes; the clan controlling Highlands taxes other clans.
Where each relationship starts
| Recipient | Published source of tax income |
|---|---|
| Settlement owner | Residents’ laundering and Black Market purchases |
| District-controlling clan | A cut of taxes paid to settlement owners in its territory |
| Highlands-controlling clan | Other clans on the map |
This table paraphrases the October 28 power pyramid announcement. It does not add percentage rates or a collection interval.
Why older broad descriptions need care
The September Global Map post describes settlement tax income broadly and warns that collecting it does not guarantee escaping with the cash. The later power pyramid post names laundering and Black Market purchases specifically. This guide uses that more specific explanation rather than claiming that every possible action is taxable.
Our recommendation is to inspect the transaction and territory interface for the current amount before making a financial decision. We have not verified automatic collection, storage limits, tax exemptions or an adjustable tax slider.
FAQ
Does renting a plot make me a tax collector? The source assigns tax income to owners and controlling clans; renting gives resident benefits.
Are all tax rates known? No. The official material establishes relationships, not a complete numerical formula.
Is collected tax cash risk-free? The Global Map announcement explicitly warns about getting away alive with collected money.
