Miners can buy mines and shafts(the nine sections) to mine for minerals. The minerals have no function other than to be sold for profit. After the minerals are mined, they sit in the shaft waiting for you to sell them. No profit will be recieved until the minerals are sold and no new mining can be done until they are cleared out.

Revision as of 19:34, 21 October 2014

There are 7 businesses a player can start if they choose to level-up certain professions. The professions with businesses are merchants, miners, farmers, brewers, cooks, medics, and sailors; each have their own unique business. Three of the businesses (mines, farms, shipping) can only be built in 8 cities (only 1 of these 3 are available per city), and you can only purchase 6 of each type. The other 4 businesses (merchant stalls, kitchen, brewery, herb garden) are available in all cities, but players can still only own 6 of the same type.


Purchasing

All businesses can be purchased from the City Hall in each city, as long as they are available there.

Each business will cost the player 25sm in the first city and will start out with one section out of 9. Each extra section in that city will cost 25 more silver marks than the section before it. (50sm for second section, 75sm for the third, ect) The player also can't have more sections than their level in that profession. In addition, if you own a business of one type in one city, the cost will go up to buy a second business of that type in second city, and again for a third etc.

The table below will show the price increases per city.

Business # Cost
1st 25sm
2nd 50sm
3rd 1g
4th 1g 50sm
5th 2g 50sm

Shipping Basic steps for shipping offices: Step 1: Buy a Shipping Office and Ships. There are different kinds of ships with different benefits and abilities. Step 2: Select the destination you wish for one of your ships to sail to from the list of available destinations (depends on the range of your boat). The amount of time the trip will take will be displayed (based on trip distance and boat speed). Step 3: Select which good you want to take to that destination from the list of available (3 local goods plus any goods that others have delivered/brought back and haven't been used yet). Estimated profit will be displayed based on the current market conditions. Step 4: Select which good you want to bring back from that destination from the list available (only the 3 goods that are from that destination). Estimated profits based on the current market conditions. Step 5: Your total estimated profits based on the current market conditions will be displayed. Market prices will vary based on changes in the amount of the goods you are trading in your origin and destination city. Actual profits will be determine when you collect from the haul of your trip. Step 6: Click the button that says 'Sail' to have your ship start the trade. Shipping offices allow players to buy Ships and send them on trade missions. Each ship has a Speed (how far a ship can travel per hour), a Cargo Size (how much product the ship can carry to trade), and a Range (how far a ship can travel on a single mission). Ship Type Speed Cargo Size Range Value Work Boat 10 10 150 1gc River Boat 11 12 200 2gc Soarer 13 11 250 5gc Darter 15 13 300 10gc Raker 14 14 400 18gc Seanchan 13 15 500 25gc A single trade mission be taking a good from your town of origin(where you built your shipping office), sailing to another town to sell it and buy a good from there, and returning to your origin to sell it as well. No multiple stop trips. Just point A to point B and back. The farther the distance traveled, the more value your trade mission will have. The table below shows the distances between each port town. Origin Tear Illian Ebou Dar Tanchico Falme Bandar Eban Tear 0 50 150 350 400 500 Illian 50 0 100 300 350 450 Ebou Dar 150 100 0 200 250 350 Tanchico 350 300 200 0 50 150 Falme 400 350 250 50 0 100 Bandar Eban 500 450 350 150 100 0 Each Shipping Town has 3 goods that can be traded. Each good has the same base price, but the price is effected by the number of each good in the destination town. The table below shows the goods available in each town and their base values in the other towns. Origin Goods Tear Illian Ebou Dar Tanchico Falme Bandar Eban Tear Grain, Ivory, Oil 0 12 36 84 96 120 Illian Fish, Silks, Gold 12 0 24 72 84 108 Ebou Dar Porcelain, Glass, Tabac 36 24 0 48 60 84 Tanchico Dyes, Wine, Fireworks 84 72 48 0 12 36 Falme Gems, Lumber, Kaf 96 84 60 12 0 24 Bandar Eban Furs, Spices, Ice Pepper 120 108 84 36 24 0 The values in the table are a per barrel price. The number of barrels a ship can hold is determined by it's cargo size. So a work boat would can carry 10 barrels of Oil from Tear to Illian, while a Seanchan Ship can carry 15. More barrels sold equals more profit for you. However, your crew isn't very bright, so you can only haul one kind of good at a time and you always take as much as you can hold. No spliting up your cargo hold.

Your profit from each trade mission is 1/2 the value of the goods you carried to you destination (-1% for each barrel of that good that already is in the city; up to 50%) + 1/2 the value of the goods you brought back (-1% for each barrel of that good that already is in the city; up to 50%).

Shipping Tools:

   Improved Cargo Holds: increase cargo space (+5% cargo value) - 5gc
   Compass: reduces delivery time (-5% time) - 5gc
   Superior Rigging: increase ship sailability (+5 range and -3% delivery time) 10gc
