$Mini-Game TRADING SESSION THIRTEEN (13)

Excellent.

Not often do I find someone who knows such obscure Arthurian references. One of my many hobbies is collecting books on Arthurian legend.

$5 for you.

There aren't any horses, that's the racetrack I built last turn. I told you a long time ago you should build a racetrack on that tile since its in 3 different cities' radii.

The icons are what people have built, the stack of lumber is a Lumber Mill, the paper is a Paper Mill, the scroll is a Bindery, the racehorse is a Racetrack, and the barrel is a Brewery.

The only horses in the current market all come from nye and I've offered to pay the bonuses for anyone who buys them from nye.

Another good site for a racetrack is adaMada's tile between Termina and Apolyton. It would use the combined pop of both to generate proceeds.

Very good point . If we ever have enough horses about, I'm likely to build one (from what I understand, if I own two horses and that racetrack, I'm going to make something in the range of 11 commerce per turn (assuming the pop numbers haven't changed from that map you posted, which they probably have) -- not nearly as nice what you got from jdd, but nice all the same ), but I won't try to get into a bidding war with you . (In several turns, I should be turning a nice profit, but I doubt I'll ever be able to catch up to you ).

-- adaMada
EDIT: Nevermind, just read that bit about no player being able to own more than one horse on a track. Oh well -- owning one alone would make a really nice sum, and my 'jackpot' would be smaller but (as such) there'd be less competition... another good idea I'll probably steel from you, Ghengis .

[adaMada]

As normal, if there are any problems with this, let me know. As soon as I crunch some mental numbers on the horses and find out what NYE's selling for, my orders may be changing, but until then...

EDIT: Ghengis, one question. The rules for breweries say "Allows up to 4 labor to convert up 2 food into 2 Ale {Changed name from mead to ale} per labor (1 to 1 conversion). " Does that mean that it's one labor to convert one food to one ale, or two? -- ada

Each labor can convert 1 food to 1 ale OR 2 food to 2 ale. The 1 to 1 means you get 1 ale for every 1 food you convert. A single labor can do up to 2 conversions.

Why is it taking you 5 labor/shields to build a Shoppe?

I don't think you have any vassals anymore since you didn't feed them last turn..................

Not many people can survive for over 100 years with no food...........

Ohh. I see now. Awsome . (I won't have to go bidding into the sky for more labor once someone else builds a brewery there ).

Thanks again Ghengis . (Am I the only American who thinks of the old Wyane's world skits from Saturday Night Live when I see that icon?)

Minor note: I'm only hiring 2 labor in Termina, since I increased my hiring in Timeline to 6. (This way, both Unortho and I get all the labor in Termina we want.)

You had a TOTAL production of 8 food. 8-3 for vassals would leave you 5 to sell.

There it is again, you have a TOTAL production of 9 food, do you have some land tiles not shown on the map?

[UnOrthOdOx]

Ok, My mistake, Don't know where I was getting off so far on my food production. Can we just remove the cash from my account then? Or subtract 3 extra food this turn?

And I will go fix that.

Could you just feed them twice this turn? If I remove the food from last turn it will affect the food price and I will have to recalculate everyone's transactions.
