Oh I see where the confusion is coming from. The chart you're looking at is is the composition and placement of monsters in random encounters. That's got nothing to do with treasure, though. The rules I was referencing about how to roll random treasure after a fight is towards the end of the Combat section. For example, your Court's average level is 4, there's five members of the Court, and you roll a 5 on the random encounter table. That one Vampire in the enemy Encampment and five Ghouls in the enemy Vanguard. If the party wins the fight, and I'll assume none of the monsters fled, you're going to roll for treasure twice. The first will be for the Vampire (Level 8) on the chart marked "Individual Level 6-10/Total Levels 10-15" so find out what the Vampire was carrying or hoarding. The second roll is for the Ghouls (Level 4), and you're going to add up all their levels for a total of 20, then roll on the chart labelled "Individual Level 11-15/Total Levels 16-22." Where the monsters started on the battlefield or end up when the fight is over doesn't matter for treasure. Also, remember to include any extra powers, buffs, or weaknesses you have put on a monster to make it more unique, since those all adjust a monster's level. Keep in mind that it's the GM's choice to combine levels for the same monsters, you just need to announce whether or not you're combining a group. For example, if you have an encounter with two powerful monsters of the same type, but give them both some very different bonuses to make each one unique, you may decide to roll treasure separately for each one instead of combining their levels because they could be different enough to feel like different monsters entirely.

Any updates on the project? Well, outside of that, I'm curious if anyone is familiar with this game's collection of supplementary materials, because I got a couple of question to ask since I'm trying to purchase it via Rakuten. 1) Are there only 2 "big supplement books" for this game - Overkill Paradise and Baroque Campaign? I can only find the former on Rakuten but that's because the English website has an annoying habit of Babelfishing all of the product's name. 2) What's up with these smaller supplements? What do they contain and are they worth buying at all? 3) Is this part of the Meikyuu Kingdom line or is the name just a concidence? I don't even know what it's supposed to be (what the heck's a "Mayokin?")

"mayokin" is an abbreviation of Meikyuu Kingdom ("mayo" is another reading of the "mei" [迷] in "meikyuu" [迷宮]) Some of those "supplements" are actually replay books, but I think the link in #3 is a set of cardboard minis for the game

I'm kind of wondering if it's out of print for quite some time though. The official site itself hasn't been updated since 2006 or something. So... no news on the translation side?

so as a DM, i'm trying to run my friends through this game, and it seems really spastic in its difficulty. maybe i'm not reading the charts right, but it seems like the game is stupid easy, right up until the "ruler's room" where it becomes next to impossible, since the amount of "total levels" in the rulers room is more than the entire rest of the dungeon. is this right?

We're in a very un-sexy part of the project where we're waiting for materials from the Japanese side of the equation but nothing is really being fabricated out of that. As far as "hard at work" is concerned, we are making sure that we have the appropriate processes in place to get the material in the right format for all the various bits that are important to getting the core set ready. However long that actually takes is mostly dependent on the Japanese publisher of the source material.
